Express Yourself: Fashion Flashback

Brought to you by Dani and Jackie, the Cover Girls!

I have had a DAY. It was long, and then I got rained on, and now it's after midnight, so I'm going to make this quick! The question this week from Dani and Jackie:



What fashion trend do you think should make a comeback?



 So when I was in high school, Backstreet Boy's "I Want It That Way" came out (sidenote: Absolutely hate that song now. They had so many better songs, but it was unfortunately the most popular). In this one scene during Kevin's bridge, they pan out as AJ slides up and sings. He has on these awesomely baggy pants with strings hanging from the pockets. I, a lover of baggy bottoms and tight tops because I thought I was Janet Jackson, knew I needed a pair of those. I'm in my thirties now, so I don't know where I would wear them, but I would love for UFOs to make a comeback.

If I had the legs for them, I would also say plaid skirts and thigh-highs, because I never got to wear those, either.

Express Yourself Weekly

I have to do this quickly. I was supposed to do it last night and plum forgot, but have to leave early today as well! This is brought to us by Dani and Jackie, the Cover Girls (links to come later), and this week they ask:

Name something you are looking forward to this Summer.

Tomorrow, I am going to Baltimore to listen to the FINAL SYMPHONY! That is the music of Final Fantasy, and it will be the music of FF VI, VII, and X, which had some of the best scores in the history of gaming! I love Nobuo Uematsu. I can't wait to hear this live!

Have a good weekend! What are you looking forward to this Summer?

Fast Five & Express Yourself Friday

It is Friday, and it is LATE Friday. I'm supposed to remind myself at night to do these, but ah well. These two Q&As are done by the Cover Girls, Dani and Jax. They work tirelessly to bring us questions to answer. Join in if you like!

For this week's Fast Five Friday, the ladies want to know: 5 Things you wish you knew then that you know now.

1. You weren't fat in high school.

2. You're going to gain more weight than you did in high school.

3. Getting published isn't as easy as writing The End and putting your work in a manila envelope. There are levels.

4. Don't forbear your loans back to back. You'll run out of chances.

5. You need to get out more.

For Express Yourself, the ladies want to know: If you could try one occupation for a day, other than your current job, what would you choose?

I used to want to be a firefighter (childhood), so maybe that...But I'd also like to be an actor for a day.

Fast Five and Express Yourself Friday

Happy Friday!!

Today is brought to us by the Cover Girls, Dani and Jackie, who host Fast Five Friday and Express Yourself Weekly!

For this week, they asked us for 5 habits and routines.

1. I bite my cheeks until I can taste copper.

2. I also pick scabs (gross, sorry, but they itch).

3. When I'm writing, I play online games in between.

4. (Just did it as I type) I bite my hangnails.

5. I hitch my glasses up even when they're not on my face lol.

They also asked us: Where would you consider the most romantic place to vacation?

Call it cliché, but I think Paris would be. The sights, the music, the art. I'd like to summer there and find a boyfriend. lol That would be nice.

What about you guys?

The heartbeat of Americaaaaa...

Every now and then, my niece gives me little trinkets that I hold onto. One year (I can't even remember which one) she gave me a U.S.A. key-chain that I still use, and she also gave me this little plastic heart that I keep on my desk at work.

What are you thankful for this week? Anything special that you treasure?
