Christening the Blog!

Well, I guess I'm finally going to give this blogging thing a shot. I love with all things fashion and beauty and despite reading dozens of different blogs, I've never actually given writing my own a shot. So hopefully no one minds if I'm a bit scatter brained and my posts aren't so great- I promise i'll try my best to improve. So why not christen my blog with different facts about myself so you guys don't just know me as that one girl with a blog who rambles on and on... Right then! I'm just going to list off random stuff under categories (since I like everything to have a place, and be in its place). 

Facts about myself:
  • I'm from a prairie province in central Canada, which means there isn't much here other than fields and animals (and yes- Saskatchewan is every bit as flat as they say it is). 
  • I was born on the eleventh of January, 1994. I refuse to accept the fact that I am legally an adult and am turning nineteen in just over two months. It's not happening, nope. 
  • I live with my parents, my sixteen year old brother, seven month old sister and our Boxer, Kasha. 
  • I have a love for travelling and I have hopes of one day seeing more of the world. 
  • I graduated high school when I was seventeen and have been putting off uni for the past year and  a half (trying to find myself and all that bullshit).
  • I have a fascination with serial killers (fucked up and morbid I know- but I just want to know how their minds work!)
  • I'm a confessed anglophile.
  • I have three tattoos, although I may be getting two of them removed and getting them re done in a different place (love the tattoos- hate the placement).
  • I have a fascination for the paranormal, and the unknown. Probably since I've had experiences as a young child
  • I have a large collection of books and I hope to one day own enough to have my own library.  
Favorite Movies:
  • Absolutely anything directed by John Hughes. Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Sixteen Candles are two of my favorites by him. 
  • My Best Friend's Wedding- I have fond memories of laying in bed with my dad on weekends watching this movie over and over and over.
  • The Wedding Planner- Let's just say I was a tad obsessed with any movie that was wedding related.
  • The Paranormal Activity franchise- These movies are my guilty pleasures, I actually love them so much.
  • Tangled- My younger cousin Anna is basically Rapunzel so how could I not absolutely love this movie; whenever I'm feeling sad and miss Annalise, I just put this movie on. 
  • Inglorious Basterds- This movie is so perfect and badass, I can't even describe how much I love it.
  • Every Harry Potter film- these films remind me of my childhood so much, and although they are different from the books, I will never not love them.
  • Princess/Disney Movies- I know I already said Tangled, but I also love Anastasia (weirdly not a disney movie, considering I went seventeen years thinking it was one), The Aristocats, Cinderella, Snow White, The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast.
  • The Perks of Being a Wallflower- I saw the movie with my best friends the day it was released at my movie theater and I absolutely loved it. Definitely worth the wait. 
  • Love Actually- I don't care if this is a Christmas movie, I will watch it any time of the year and still love it so much.
  • Pride and Prejudice (Keira Knightly version)- So fucking perfect and every one in this movie is attractive so yeah.
  • 500 Days of Summer- Do I really need to tell you why I love this movie? (JGL)

So there it is, a very large and totally random list of books, movies, bands/artists and television shows. I'm probably forgetting a ton of stuff, but that's the gist of it. I think the plan is mostly just to make this blog a way to track my life, since there is going to be a lot of changes in my life during the next year and it will be a nice way to keep track of things. I'm thinking about doing some outfit posts, organizational posts, makeup and skin care reviews, maybe I'll even start doing book reviews on here! 

I think that's going to be it for this posts, considering it's obnoxiously long. Hope everyone is doing well!

Love,
