Come and take a trip with me to a land where love is free.

Only two words can truly capture the pure essence of last night: perfect wonderland. There was A LOT of waiting in traffic to not only get off the freeway exit, but to even enter the stadium, but it was oh so worth it. Once you stepped in, it was a whole new world. A world where everyone followed the simple values of peace, love, happiness, unity, and respect. Ravers are definitely the modern hippie. We were all one. You could seriously start talking to anyone around you about anything and you'd be welcomed with open arms. Everyone was so beautiful in there own way, the entire experience was beautiful, I never wanted to leave. And the music! My God, was it amazing. From the booming bass to the fantastic light shows, I could have died happy right there. Oh, and my "rave name" is officially Bunny. :P Unfortunately, I didn't bring a camera with me so all I have is some photos from the website. My sister did take a few pictures of my outfit before I left though! Enjoy! :o)






















Next year, my outfit will be more creative and eccentric :P

Electric Daisy

You are passionate, romantic, and emotional. You put love first in your life, even though you have often been disappointed by it.

I just finished reading this book, and honestly, I have never been so on the verge of tears or just so emotionally affected by a story. And I'm not generally affected or impressed by much at all, so me saying that is a big deal. :P I couldn't put it down, it was just so riveting and so insightful, I was absolutely touched. But any words that I use to describe it won't do the story justice, I deeply suggest reading it!

Enzo knows he is different from other dogs: a philosopher with a nearly human soul (and an obsession with opposable thumbs), he has educated himself by watching television extensively, and by listening very closely to the words of his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver.
Through Denny, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition, and he sees that life, like racing, isn't simply about going fast. Using the techniques needed on the race track, one can successfully navigate all of life's ordeals.
On the eve of his death, Enzo takes stock of his life, recalling all that he and his family have been through. Having learned what it takes to be a compassionate and successful person, the wise canine can barely wait until his next lifetime, when he is sure he will return as a man.
A heart-wrenching but deeply funny and ultimately uplifting story of family, love, loyalty, and hope, The Art of Racing in the Rain is a beautifully crafted and captivating look at the wonders and absurdities of human life . . . as only a dog could tell it. -♥

dreaming together forever and ever.

1. 2. 3. 4.

Just a random post - I found these pictures to be quite inspiring :o)
Have a fabulous day! ♥

You can be so self-absorbed.

I think all my late night escapades and random adventures have finally caught up to me. I've been sick since Sunday! At first it was just a simple sore throat, but as they day proceeded I felt worse, and now I feel so groggy and slow...I can't be sick...I have the rave this weekend! X_X

today's outfit.

Shopping at Fashion Island and then kicking it at the beach.
Today was awfully hot and my body is still covered in stingy friction burns from last night's rendez-vous..tehe...^_^;

It's you that ought to be holding me.

Sorry for directly snagging these from the lovely Tinsley, but seriously as soon as I saw these pictures my heart just melted. It captures the eccesnse of my relationship with this one boy. We are not together, nor are we really dating by any other means...we're basically each others booty call. We get together, we party, we do things. Yet I can just feel this sense of yearning for a deeper passion in each other, but that could just be me. Lame, yes I realize that, but I can't help it...and lately I feel like I am beginning to fall for him, but I need to remind myself that it's strictly fun. :P

Your eyes are the size of the moon.

I don't know what it was about today, but I just felt incredibly icky. And that's the best word I can think of to describe it. It's been far too hot and I've been nauseous all day, however, I realize that it's my own fault as my eating habits have been nasty lately. I constantly snack on junk food with no structured meals nor much fruit or veggies. I need to go grocery shopping! Plus I've been feeling so unmotivated and so sluggish, which is due to my lack of real physical activity. I do ab crunches nightly and swim as much as I can, but I realize I should be doing more. Oh! And thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! :D I didn't get any presents, nor did I throw a party like I normally do, but I did get the chance to spend time with darling friends and that was more than I can ask for. I suppose I'm just saving my celebrating for Electric Daisy next week, and hopefully I scored some birthday points with the parents to win some sort of shopping trip or something! I did get a new haircut...it makes me look 10 years younger, which isn't great because now I look 7...but I think it's cute when I dress up! I shall be posting more outfit posts, just all I have is my cell phone so it's crappy quality.


I was feeling the 60's vibe so excuse the overused peace-sign! x)
If you'd like you can go to this post to compare my old and new hair! Better or worse?

Happy Birthday To Me

I am officially 17 now =)

today's outfit.

Shirt - forever 21
Shorts - fashion q
Shoes - a random store in Vegas

Sorry for the blurryness of the photo, my cellphone is all I had!
When I first saw those shoes, it was love at first sight! They are so obnoxious, but in the most fabulous way possible. If you can't tell, it's a leopard print with scattered blue roses. I know it doesn't exactly match, but I don't care, I've been waiting for some sort of excuse to wear them!
But yeah, so I plan on wearing them at "nice boy's" graduation ceremony in an hour or two. I hate how as soon as you get all dolled up and perfect...you realize that you still have so much time left until you get picked up. So I'm sitting here, getting all sweaty, and I just know that by the time he arrives, I'm going to look awful. Oh well xD Hopefully tonight will provide some adventures, I know it's bad since I'm supposed to be his date, but my latest "lust crush" will be there too...oh my. :P

This video makes me want to start working out and dancing! xD

qui je suis?

Rummaging through papers
Trudging through the sand
Would you please hold
hold my hand?
I'm empty and I'm hollow
am all I good for is to swallow?
I'm so done.
Yet, I need someone.

It's been a random day, spent primarily on lounging about the house. I was prepared for yet another full blown argument with my mother, full of the typical screaming and slamming of doors, but for once we had a civil conversation pertaining to our relationship. I told her that I need space from her if I am to ever successfully heal myself, and she seemed to have understood. However, it wouldn't be the first time she's led me astray from her true intentions. She's very good at being manipulative when she wants to, and I've certainly learned from the best.
Anyway, I was feeling so good the past few days, and slowly getting better until I find that she's been saying nasty things behind my back to my father and sister. The usual "Michelle is getting so fat." "She needs therapy." sort of things. It really gets to me. To her, she's always right. She can't possibly fathom that I may be depressed because of her constant put downs and plain old negativity. Instead it's just because I'm simply crazy. I feel huge and ugly...which sucks because I was beginning to regain SOME sort of self-worth, but now I'm back at square one.
I just feel so alone and yet when I do have company...I'm even more alone. It's like there is this gap inside me and yet nothing seems to properly fill it. No amount of boys and parties does any justice, it's all just temporary relief, in the end I'm more lonely. Another example, I've once again come across one of those typical "nice" boys, the ones who are very considerate and sweet....and like always, I'm not attracted to him. I can't even pretend to, like I just lose all interest as soon as I see him. And yet I know that compared to the others, he's a much better choice. But instead I still have dreams of my marine ex boyfriend, or I find myself practically praying that the "nice" boy will suddenly turn into my last ex boyfriend. And now I find myself slightly crushing, (though I still won't fully admit to it), on my friend's best friend. But it's mostly physical anyway, he temporarily fills "the gap". But seriously, why are girls always attracted to the "bad boys"? Why can't we just tell ourselves no and settle for those sweet, innocent boys? It only makes life more difficult, and yet I can't help myself!
Oh and in case you are curious, the poem, (well, it's not so much as a poem as it is my emotions attempting to sound melodic), was written when I stopped by a park, (the infamous park where "lustful actions" (trying to be discreet) with the friend's best friend started). It was a random impulse and I took it. And it was worth it, because it was one of those gorgeous summer evenings. The moon is full, the city lights dazzling in the distance, warm air gently cooled down by a soft breeze. I wanted to stay there forever. But I settled for swaying on a swing and singing my emotions to the tune of "Violet Hill" by Coldplay, which is when I thought of this mini poem.

Movies With Great Fashion

So as I'm sitting here, completely bored and full from finishing off all the blueberries, I thought I could entertain myself by putting a list of movies together that I haven't seen and consist of impeccable fashion. I also want to make a point to watch all of them before the end of summer. Here is what I've come up with so far, if you have any more suggestions, please let me know! :D
