DAY 100 **celebrates** :D *~Converse Mods and Camera Necklace~*

 I went to the gym for the first time yesterday! It was great finally being able to work out, since I've been pretty "stagnant" for about a week. I did fifteen minutes on the elliptical, forty minutes on the bike, weight circuit for 25 minutes, curl up machine, and then a fifteen minute cool down on the treadmill. I felt so refreshed afterwards....but now I'm extremely sore! x[ Acck. But no pain, no gain? Hopefully soon I shall have some muscles! I hauled along my old iPod nano so I could be allworkoutcoollike and attach it to my shorts, but I didn't think ahead enough to charge it. The entire time it was on low-low-just-about-to-die red battery, and I was afraid to chose good workout songs for fear of draining whatever power it had. Granted, today I compiled a workout playlist.

Day 98

Is it sad that I've been living in my house for 17 years, and the other day I realized for the first time that one of our light switches was screwed on upside down. So what do I do? Make a silly pun.

Day 99

I re-modded my converse again! Hopefully this will be the last time. What ended up happening was during the second time, I had used white out to cover my old pattern and make a new one. And since I wore these sneakers up to camp (for work) all of the white out ended up chipping off on the right foot, so I had to go darker over it. But I have to say, I'm a fan of the outcome!

I posted this on flickr yesterday and now it has 40 views...the most that I've EVER received EVER. I know it's not a lot at all, but it is for my isolated photostream xD Finally the amount of views I have is equal to the amount of pictures I've posted. I guess the world loves converse...I'll have to keep that in mind :o)

ANYHOO, I get to celebrate because today is DAY 100 of my project 365! I've finally reached my first greatest stepping stone of photography. Here's to 100 days of pictures, and 100 years more! Heh heh. I also find it funny that it's my 99th post AND my bloggoversary is in 2 days! Too bad I didn't start my project two days later, then all of my milestones would've been aligned like a solar eclipse! Whoo! And in honor of day 100, a new banner was necessary!

Day 100!!!

Featuring my new necklace from Forever21

I was trying for a lomo/diana/holga effect, I can't keep track of which one's which x[

Also, if you know any good powerful work out songs to recommend, please leave them below :D VV

Take Off Your Colours

The other day I was blog walking and I came across a post from Jasmine @ Pardon My Ffrench where she posted pictures of rainbow cupcakes that she made. They looked so tasty and gorgeous that I was immediately inspired, so I grabbed sibling and we baked a batch. 

It was fairly simple. Make a bowl of cake batter, then separate it into as many bowls as colors that you want. Then use food dye to make each bowl of batter a different color. Then have fun spooning different colors into cup cake holders and put them in the oven. I don't know why I've never tried them until now.

Different colored batters!

As far as frosting went, I used white and put tiny drops of food coloring throughout it to give a tie-dye effect.

Deciding which colors to use

Green batter looks like boogers x[

Before baking!

These beautiful cupcakes were the perfect POTD material!

Day 96

NOM NOM NOM

And of course, Nemo wanted a bite!

No cupcake for kitty :3

Later during the day I went back to school clothes shopping at the mall. I only shopped in Delias and F21, but OH BOY was that enough. I bought so many new items of clothing that I had to go through and take out nearly half of my old clothing I had (most of which I've stopped wearing for 1-3 years). So basically I bought an entire new wardrobe. The purchases: 3 skirts, 2 pairs of jeans, 2 solid shirts, a mickey mouse shirt, a pink tank, a navy blue sweater, 3 floral tops, a flannel shirt, flower tights, 2 pairs of leggings, and a camera necklace. ZOMG. I was so tired!

I'm hoping that I'll dress a lot better this year xD

THE HAUL

My favorite new skirt

Another new skirt.

Today I was just chilling out, recuperating from my shopping extravaganza. Getting some stuff done (which wasn't too much)

Day 97

Well, that's quite enough of that! I'm hoping to get my school schedule soon, study SAT some more, and finish my first draft college essay x(

Bubble Photos!

Heyyooo! So since I'm not starting off this post with an apology, I don't really know how to start it off. Here, I'll make a list of all the things I've accomplished since I last posted.

1. Went on a walk (around my house) after the rain finally ceased and took pictures
2. Used those pictures to "fill in the holes" of my missing 365 pictures (I know it's cheating, but if I have blank slots in my project then the math will eventually confuse me...at least I'm admitting that I'm cheating)

Day "81"

Day "82"

Day "83"

Day "87"

3. Attempted a photo tutorial that I found here by Jean Fan founder of JFotography: 

Day 94

and the pictures actually came out!

What the set up actually looked like.

If you're into photography and would like to try something new, I would recommend this tutorial! It's pretty easy to set up, and you could put lots of different things into the "bubble bath." It's like a whirlpool of creativity (please excuse my cheesy expression)

4. Had an epic movie marathon/sleepover with one of my friends. We watched Titanic (one of my favorite movies EVER!), 500 Days of Summer (meh), Juno (I love the dialogue), Shutter Island (which made no sense), and Angel's in the Outfield (can I adopt JGL??), all one after another! If you can figure out what all of those movies have in common you win a golden biscuit.  We were going to watch Treasure Planet too, but we couldn't find a real copy anywhere (hint hint) ;)

5. Played with my cat Nemo/took project 365 picture

Day 95

6. Finished reading the book A Prayer for Owen Meany for school. It's such a horrible book, please don't waste your time reading 617 pages of pure misery. I'm hoping I'll be able to get my hands on "The Hunger Games" soon, because I've heard it's a pretty good read.

Yes! There you have it! A quick and painless narrative of my life! As you can tell, I really don't have a gift with words. It's so much easier to communicate in pictures. 

BLAAAHHH I AM A KRAKEN FROM THE SEA!!!

*Awkward Cough* Day 80-93 (kind of)

This blog makes me feel like I let myself down. I took another unannounced hiatus until my job ended, without planning to. Now I have two weeks of boredom freedom ahead. I was feeling particularly uninspired, and because of that I missed 4 days of my 365 project. Anyways, now I'm back and feeling a bit more rested and under control. Hopefully I'll be blogging every 2 or 3 days, instead of once every week and a half now! I wish that for once I'd be able to start my post without an apology!!!

Right now it's I-don't-really-know-how-many degrees outside and RAINY. It's been raining non-stop for two days now. I was planning on going outside to take a real 365 photo, because I'm SO SICK of taking pictures of things inside of my room! There's not a free white wall in my whole entire house either...and the natural lighting basically sucks. But plans=dashed because mother nature has other plans. I think the rain will stop soon...it can't rain forever!


I also went to the mall yesterday. My dad wanted to take a walk and it was raining, so we decided to walk there. Of course walking quickly turned into shopping, so I scored a kawaii iPod case from Borders and a new top from Forever21 (and it's the first thing I've ever bought from there.) Speaking of shopping, I've been contemplating buying these converse sneakers from Journeys:

Thoughts?

Anyhoo, moving on to the shambles of what is supposed to be my Project 365.

Day 80

Day 84

I ordered quite a few prints from CVS

Day 85

And then I taped them up on my wall. This is my excuse on why I missed day 81-83 -_-

Day 86

It looks less scary when it's rotated...which is how it's supposed to be!

Day 88

New skirt from H81. It only cost 8 dollars, what a deal!

Day 89

I made this, and it broke. *SIGH*

Day 90

Gift from my coworker...last day of work!

Day 91 

I got a new makeup bag as a tip from one of my camper's parents. It inspired this shot.

Day 92 

New Uber Kawaii iPod case!!!

Day 93

Dragon Candle

Bonus Photo (?)

Anyways, if it's hard to tell, I've going to attempt a motif of COLOR for my next couple batches of 365 photos. I figure that if I come up with a theme for a week or two, it'll make coming up with a good picture easier.

Here are some other future ideas for themes:

Leaves (when fall starts)

Back to school items

Clothes

Nemo

Sunsets/sunrise

Close-ups

Food

Day 66-79?!! Aka the Motherload.

Not much to say for your daily dose of Sarah babble. I should be reading a book for school right now, or writing an essay, or studying for the SA--actually, just forget it. I'll take care of that academic crap later. Right now I'm just trying to watch as many Disney movies as I can, and having enough time to sleep and edit pictures. Last night I finished watching Dumbo, and I've been on a Treasure Planet binge. Trust me, it's the most underrated Disney movie ever, so you should watch it if you haven't. And if you're interested, just search for it on YouTube. Trust me, it's there.

Anyhoo, onto business!

Day 66

Look! It's a Bumble Bee! It's so fluffy (I'm gonna die!!!) Actually, I didn't see Despicable Me, so don't bother asking if I liked it...I did like the trailer.

Day 67

East Meets West! And it was yummy!

Day 68

I just liked the colors!

Day 69

Yeupp, not much to say about this one

Day 70

I made this out of hemp at the camp that I work at. It's an anklet now.

Day 71

This was the fabric of a skirt that my grandma made, it doesn't fit me, sadly.

Day 72

I know I posted this picture on the last post, but it's a POTD

Day 73

I found a burrow of bunnehs in my backyard. So....freakin....cute o_O

Day 74

I made this wallet out of duct tape for my dad's birthday. It was a huge hit haha :)

Day 75

I felt in the mood to make an iPod silhouette. I'm thinking about doing a tutorial on how to do this as a future post. Let me know if you'd be interested.

Day 76

Who doesn't like cliche pictures with cliche text? From what I can tell, the internet tends to be a huge fan of such.

Day 77

*Insert snarky comment here*

Day 78 

Day 79

I don't...even...know...

And of course, some extra pictures!

Actually, I have more but I'll spare you. Those with slow internet probably want me dead heheh xD. Sorry! I'm sorry for being so lazy with editing and posting, cause then I post a lot at once!
