Passion: Nails

One of my passions are my nails. I get them done every two to three weeks and when I don’t have them done I feel very weird and almost like somethings missing. Anyways I love getting my nails done, not because I am trying to be cute, but because I love the creative aspect of it. I am allowed to be as creative as I want and I can express myself in a unique, beautiful way. I get different shapes of nails like stiletto, coffin, oval, square and more. My favorite is coffin nails (That’s the shape of nail I have now). I usually try to get outrageous designs that will pop out and draw people’s attention. However, If I don’t get crazy designs I try to get distinctive colors that look well together and that pop out and is very flamboyant. My most favorite nail design that I've had was when I had stiletto shaped nails, with a real nice subtle pink and then I put clear rhinestones at the bottom. It was extremely pretty. However, now for some reason I have been feeling the urge to get very nude colors because they are just extremely pretty and simple. Maybe my style is just changing or maybe this is a phase. Anyways, I love Matte nails. Matte is a overcoat that makes the nail polish look extremely dull, but it is the most prettiest thing I've ever seen. I really don’t know why i’m obsessed with Matte nails, but I love it. Anyways, nails popping!!!

Class Poetry Presentation

Over the break we had to do the poetry presentation and we had to memorize our 14 LINE SONNETS!!! Plus Ms. Hegeman made ME go first! She said that life is unfair so I had to go first. I did good though for my first time because I stuttered like once or twice, but I knew my poem because I had studied it over the break line by line. This presentation made me be able to memorize and present poetry and be able to explain what the poem means. Even though, my interpretation was kind of wrong I got most of it right. It was just one be part that messed me up. I have realized that I really `need to work on my interpretations and trying to figure out what the poems mean. However, it is hard for me because every time I think I know what a poem is talking about, I get it wrong or only get half right. I guess I just have to keep working on trying to understand what I'm reading and try annotating more because that may help me figure out what's going on in the poem without asking for help. I like poetry sometimes, but I hate when I can't understand it and it's really the language they use that gets to me because I can't understand exactly what they mean. Anyways, hopefully I did a good job on my presentation and get a good grade because I really did try to interpret it and memorize it and have it ready for the day we come back.
