oh, if i had my way

the shirt was longsleeve up until this morning, when i decided that they were too tight and proceeded to chop them off
i was kind of afraid that it would be white-trashy at first, but i think it turned out pretty well!

i'm chanting a song

whoops

my first attempt at cat-eyes went pretty well i think! i wore them + my nebula dress out to dinner last night. my second outfit i wore this afternoon, and the dress i borrowed from my mom + rocket dog shoes. the dress rubbed off on my chest, though, and everything (and i mean everything up until my tights) ended up with a blueish tint

blow out the candles

(from the screencaps alone, you'd think she spent the whole movie just staring sort of confusedly at everything)
while it's only my 15th birthday today, i watched sixteen candles for the first time last month during a spontaneous brat pack-a-thon with my dad, and it's now my second favorite john hughes movie (the first being ferris bueller's day off, of course)
i was a little hesitant to accept becoming 15, which sounds really ridiculous, but i'm genuinely scared about little things like "the future" and "accomplishments". i think i've come to terms with it for now

and one day, hair-god willing, i might be able to successfully copy her 'do
hopefully that day will come soon

if i show up at his house, he'll fall in love with me!

take it as it comes - vivian girls, lauren bacall, life magazine, cyndi lauper, '50s teen bedroom, debbie harry, the virgin suicides, floral collage
