A new look, a new year.

As of February 1, 2010, the layout of Mariah Carey that was featured on Falling Stars has been removed. It was way too bright, and started to give me headache’s during the day. It will be missed, but I felt that the month of February would fit the new layout perfectly.



pictureof meI love MIa’s style, her whole persona is what attracts the hype crowd. She has her mellow moments (as shown in the image to my left) and her WOW moments, where she parades around the stage in outrageously bright colors. She’s an entertainer, no doubt. Her experimental taste in music is why I chose her to be featured on the new layout. In this layout, she is portrayed as innocent, with a hidden agenda (the hot pink and light blue) of life, something that reminds me of her song “Bucky Dun Gun”. Sometimes, when I’m bored, I would put on my bright pajamas (yes, I still wear pajamas) and dance to her music. Weird, I know, but there’s nothing like being in the confines of your own room, being able to do whatever you please. At least I know that I don’t risk the troubles of being judged for the things I do lol. So back to the pajama party. Sometimes me and my sister would both imitate MIA and Santogold in their song “Get It Up”. I, of course, would be Santogold (she’s one of my idols) and my sister would be MIA. We would use her hair brushes as microphones, and stand in front of my big mirror. She would wear her red shades, and I would have on my thick black hoodie that zips up in the front all the way to the head. We try to look like this(click). We fail miserably, but it’s fun. We get a good laugh, then afterwords take some pictures. I love my little sister, she keeps me laughing. ♥












Saturday night, it snowed. Then today, we had a 2 hour delay. I stayed home, and was forced to deal with the constant verbal attacks from my dad. If I weren’t mistaken, I’d swear that my father was actually losing his mind. But then again that’s my dad, and I’m quite sure he’s been this way all of his life. From the stories that my Aunt and Uncle’s would tell me, my dad was a funny guy. I love him none the less, though.

So tomorrow, I hope that my Work Study teacher is back in school. After hearing that my English teacher would not be returning (having just lost her husband over Thanksgiving Break) I was hoping that she would come back. Our new teacher is outgoing, no doubt, but a little lose at the top of the head. My work study teacher was complaining that her kidney’s were hurting, and hasn’t been back to school since week before last. I really hope she’s doing alright.

So as I close this update, I’d like to inform everyone of my new forum that I actually plan on keeping. The name: OK GO. You can click the Ad above this blog or the banner below to view; please join and spread the word! The more, the merrier. :)

Dear Monique;

Wowiee..This layout is totally amazing. I really loved the style, it’s so unique!
And I guess the dads are the same no matter where you are in the world :D Sometimes they overreact but that does not show that they don’t love us :) I guess you are already aware of that =D
When my dad gets mad, gosh…He starts to speak every single language he knows. Starting with Greek and ending in Hayeren ;)
Take Care! Keep the site up, it’s my first visit here but I’m definitely coming back again :)

Private? Well I go to a private one also, and it’s one of the bests in my country. I guess you live at US? Right? I know that some state ones are really good over there but private ones are also special :D I know it because I applied for San Francisco Academy of Arts when I used to live there..Awh..those were the days..;)
It’s great to study with people from different living styles, and cultures. You learn a lot ;)

Well, it’s great that your dad wants you to get educated good :) Big Universities have advantages than smaller ones…but you have to study a lot though..SAT I&II they are quite pain in butt..;)

Dear Monique;

Hmm.. actually once you get all panicked and stressed, it’s obvious that you won’t make it. But if you use your time wisely, and study&revise frequently, and practise with every single question you answered wrong you can make it.
There are people whom made it to a good college :) so it’s not mission impossible ;)
