Beauty Myths: Fact or Fiction

Being that SO MANY of my friends bow down to these Beauty Myths, I thought it would be fun to see if these rules are true, or just a whole bunch of bogus! Chocolate – a yummy, melt-in-your-mouth food, how could something so innocent possibly cause zits? The facts are, according to leading dermatologists in the real Orange County, chocolate has no part in acne – at all. The key to perfect skin is simple – eat healthy, your skin stays healthy. Skin is similar to any other organ – like your lungs or your heart. If you smoke, you clot up your lungs – just like if you eat healthy, your skin stays fresh and healthy-looking! Wearing skirts can be lots of fun, but if you want to have smooth, non-prickly skin – you must go through that aching torture of waxing them. Can you SCREAM myth any louder? Though shaving causes those little round circles on your legs, it does not make your hair any thicker or faster growing. The real deal about hair growth is your body shape – for some people, hair replaces fat, giving them insulation.Mayonnaise – it goes on hamburgers, bake potatoes and YOUR HAIR?! This is completely and utterly fictional. Mayonnaise, as much as you would like to believe, does absolutely nothing to benefit the health of your luscious locks. If you’re looking to improve the condition of your hair, go buy a Frederick Fekkai product!!! Gum – extra sugar, low fat, and whitening – it's all the same. If you’re looking for the classic bright shining smile – pick up some Crest Whitening Strips.

Woof...this really put me into perspective...basically, you can eat chocolate, but not so much. THAT IS A RELIEF...I'm a chocoaddict!!!! Also, I did this while at home...I've been sick for the past two days with a 103 fever and it sucks! I got a lot better today, so hopefully I'll be back at school tomorrow!

PS - SiX DAYS UNTiL i'M 14!

Birthday Befores!

MY BiRTHDAY iS iN EXACTLY 2 WEEKS! I will become a proud 14 year old on April 24th, 2007(!!!) & I can't wait! I'm having a party at this big go-kart, batting cages, mini golf place on May 6th because it's freezing here right now (it was 35degrees today). So I thought some of you guys may like some of the stuff on my list, so here it is:

Betsey Johnson Betseyville Large Bucket BagnI think it's so adorable and I can use it for lots of events and fun trips to the park or something.

Betsey Johnson Large ToteI love this one because it has the shape of the signature Longchamp bag, but it has fun rope handles (which are more in than I can even say) and it also has a large "Betseyville" heart in the middle.

To COMPLETE the Betsey Johnson ObsessionI also ADOREEE this Betsey Johnson Sterling Silver Heart/Arrow necklace, because I saw a Juicy one that I liked, but it was big and plastic and chunky in person - and this one is good because it's subtle & cute at the same time. Plus, it's sterling silver!

Burberry FlatsI also like these Burberry flats because they perfectly match my bag, and I am IN LOVE with this new sparkley Burberry collection.

Juicy SweatsuitThis is like THE PERFECT JUiCY SWEATSUiT! It comes in black, and it "Juicy" written on the back and the side of the pant, not the butt (like other Juicy sweatpants) and it's written in a fancy, big script.

One Tree Hill SeasonsWhat can I say? I love the show!

Juicy Hair Dryer CharmPerfect addition to my bracelet!

That's it! It IS the shortest list I've probably had since I was about 2, but what can I say, I've changed bigtime. Tell me what you think!

Welcome Back, Welcome Back, Wel-come Back!!!

I am back from my fun-in-the-sun fabulousness vacation. Cancun really has it all – I’d say it’s a cross of Hawaii, Dubai and New York. Take the party out of New York, the shopping from Dubai and the great weather, ocean and beach from Hawaii – and there you go, Cancun. I can definitely say that because I’ve been to all those places, and that’s the conclusion I made.

But before Cancun, I must say, the Justin concert was BEYOND AMAZING. It just made me love him more. Of course, he came up from the floor, and he had a really good stage setting. There were four screens around him, one for each title of his album – future.sex.love.sounds. For the slow songs, he’d play the piano in the middle of the stage, with the screens surrounding him. Sometimes the screens would close up in on his face, too. For the quicker ones he’d just dance with his signature, amazing style, no screens. The stage also had two lower sections on either side with the band and some dancing room, and stairs to get down there, but of course, JT would jump. He is just such a good performer! OH, and it was his last North American concert, so before the second song (Senorita), he gave a toast and drank some Tequila, I believe. He was so cute, he even sang one NSYNC song, Gone, and he said it was special to him. OMG - Timbaland was there. It was so random, too. He just randomly came on stage and the whole intermission was like Timbaland promoting his album, which I will be buying on iTunes. Overall, Justin is an amazing performer and I LOVEEEEEEEEEE him. LOVE.

Oh, and some Justin gossip, there are rumors going around that he has a crush on his blonde dancer – in all the songs he was always like dancing with her and stuff. SO shady! Pink opened up for him. She was pretty good too. She had a long, pink (haha) scarf like cloth hanging from the ceiling in which she did these insane gymnast tricks on. Cancun was really amazing – the water was the most amazing shade of bluish turquoise – the only water I’ve seen that shade! The pool at my hotel; Fiesta Americana Grand Coral Beach, was fresh water and humungous, so it was simply great. But we decided to mix it up on this trip, instead of being solely cultural or solely relaxing, it was a busy combination of both. We’d sit on the beach, and yes, like a baby I built a sand castle lol. We also went to Chichen Itza and visited the Mayan ruins that have been around for a billion years now. They were really pretty and big, but it was hot on the day we went so I was in and out when the tour guide was talking. We also went to this naturally made underground body of water; it was really, really nice! There were even fish in the water. We also went snorkeling, which was fun, too. Overall, I liked the trip. We went out, the malls were great – I even had an authentic Mexican churro – yum, man, yum!

I'm so tired. I think I'm going to take a nap. Writing this post took me all day, and I STILL have to write a poem for english. UGHH
