Mmm. Car rides.

Hello waves and sun. :) You are lovely.


Peace sings. Yum.
Again, I love snow days and pictures. Days like this are days that I love.
Instead of thinking about my ex-best friend. I took these.

I went to Muscatine this weekend. To love on my family. I got bored on the ride though. So I took pictures with my isight. My hair was curly and I had lipstick on from show choir that morning. It was quite exciting.


This one is my favorite. But believe me, I took more. Here are two. :)


Yes, this is a three hour car ride. A nap would probably have been of better use, but this was more fun, of course.

I am loving Muscatine. I have a new "I love my family" kick. This weekend it's the Pieper family. Next weekend I'm going out with cousins from the Pieper side. Kylie and Nina are currently my life savers. It will be good.

I am trying to get over all the drama that was happening when I wrote my last post. It will be okay.

My video about flaws is being worked on. It is off to a good start. It will be nice. So be ready.

Messed Up.

This will be a good week I hope. There was already one snow day. And tomorrow is a two hour delay already, with a good chance there will be a cancellation. I hope there is one. I don't want to go to school. My best friend and I had a falling out. We used to date. I told him everything. Him and my 5 year old cousin were the most important people in my life. But I screwed up. Bad. And I was called out on it. And no matter how much I say sorry It will never make a difference. I will always be paying for this one. I just lost my best friend. He actually told me never to talk to him again. I am heartbroken. There will never be someone that will be able to take his place. I will never trust anyone as much as I trusted him...I miss him so much already.

To be honest, though. I don't blame him at all for not wanting to be my friend anymore. I don't deserve him as a friend. He has always been there for me, and I took advantage of that. I thought that no matter what I did he would never leave me. I will straight up admit that I treated him like crap. I started fights just to make sure that he still cared. I said things I shouldn't have just because I was in a bad mood. I was a horrible friend. He was an amazing one though. I will forever be grateful for all he did for me. He listened to me complain everyday about how bad my life is...and the thing is, my life really isn't that bad. Sure, I have a couple people who treat me like shit, problems with my family, and a couple rumors being said about me. But it is high school. What else can I expect...I guess what I'm trying to say is, to all of you reading this. Don't take your friends for granted. Especially the ones you lean on just to be okay. Because once they're gone you will be a mess. I know I am.

So, I have always been a fan of Lifetime movies. Of course I'm watching pregnancy pact as a result. Remind me never to get pregnant in high school. Ugh. I feel so bad for these girls. They are so stupid.

I am also making a short film with my friend Michelle. We are making a video about embracing your flaws. We're having people write down their flaws or something that states that they love themselves and filming them. We will also be interviewing people about embracing flaws. I'm really super pumped. It will be awesome.

I made a video today too. I was actually so bored that I set up a camera in my room and made a video of me cleaning my room. Something that took one whole hour was then shortened to four and a half minutes and set to an *NSYNC song. I was so proud of myself. Go watch it. :)

Shuttle Cocks Will Be The Death Of Me.

It was sunny. And I was loving it. I have started trying to find pretty things in life. The lighting for this picture was very pretty. I had to take this.



I got hit in the face with a shuttle cock today, ya know a birdie. My gym class was playing badminton, and the next thing I know, the birdie is flying at my face, and I did not have time to dodge it or get my racket up in time. It was all very traumatic. THe person who hit me with it was the same person who called me a whore. I guess that's maybe why I was so mad. I might have laughed otherwise.

I dressed up for semester tests. People looked at me weird. But I didn't want to wear sweats like everyone else did. If I would have I would just fall want to fall asleep in the middle of my tests. And that is not an option. I can not fail. Anything. I must pass. Or my parents would chop my head off... I like my head.

I am drinking coffee right now. I can not keep away from the caffeine. The more I try the more I want it. And the more I want it the harder it gets to ignore the hella withdrawals I have when I don't consume any. The headaches are saying to me, "Kelsey, drink caffeine. It's good for you." And while I know this is my body lying to me, I can't help but to give in.

I wish Sleater-Kinney was still together as a bad. I am listening to their album "The Woods." It was so good. I always wonder how people can make such good music as a group and then not be able to stand each other enough to stay together. I guess conflict is part of art. It just makes me a little bit sad. I dunno.

I Am Back. In Tights.

School is back in session, yo. It had been a long weekend, and I was getting very sick of my family. I am glad to be back within the four walls that make up BCLUW. I don't go crazy.

The only thing bad about today is the fact that I saw him. The ex-best friend that called me a whore. Sitting right by him in art causes a definite lack of flow when it comes to my creative juices. I just sat and listened to Paramore. I needed a little angst.

My outfit is a success though. Black and red plaid dress, dark grey knit tights, light grey cardigan. Yummy. :)

It has been a good day. School is good, clothes are good, lunch was good (french fries), life is just good.

Good. :)

Hey Baby, Here's That Post You Wanted.

I am currently loving the band Blessthefall. Sometimes you just need a little good hardcore, right? This is the thought I am having while blasting it out of my laptop in the hallway at school the other day. Other people around me weren't thinking the same thing though. I guess not every one appreciates it as much as I do.

Looking outside hurts my eyes. This is my second snow day in a row, and all the snow glares nad reflects the sun. It's practically blinding. So instead I am spending a lot of time on the couch watching the entire second season of Secret Life of the American Teenager. That's gross. I know. But it's keeping me entertained, and that's what I need right now. Well, and caffeine.

I know, I know. NO CAFFEINE, KELSEY! But I just like it so dang much.

And as for the rumor issue, I'm getting that taken care of, finally. I am trying to be okay. I had to ditch my best friend, because he called me a whore. But my other best friend, Brittany, keeps reminding me that I don't need that. And I will be fine.

Also, I think that I told you guys about my new scarf knitting addiction. Well, now I'm just addicted to the scarf. It's so cozy. I love it. More than caffeine maybe...or maybe not. But still, a lot. :)

Now, even though I have Blessthefall, Secret life, coffee, Brittany, and my scarf I am sad. The Wildcat Duels are canceled! That is our home wrestling tournament with about 16 teams there. It's all day long. I love it. The fact that there is no meet because of this stupid now, now that, I don't love. Ugh. Well, maybe someday I will get over it. That's what I'm working on lately. Getting over things.

I have fun editing pictures on snow days.

I love photo booth. And I get way too bored on snow days.
Love me.



I like peace signs, funny faces, my wrist, and my art.



Sweaters are cozy. Let me live in them, please.



I stole Mick's Bob Marley shirt before he went to Germany.


I love when my hair is curly and my lamp looks sweet behind me.


This is my friend Tyler's favorite picture of me. I like the sun.


I have big eyes.

Hello, Snow Day.

Mmm. This will be a good day. I had a very long, late night. Fighting with people about the shitty rumors going around my high school about me. 1)I am not anorexic. 2)I don't trash my friends. 3)I am not a whore. Somehow I don't appreciate people saying that shit either.

But it's fine because today I am just going to cool off, and be okay with it. I am thinking I will knit another scarf or play the piano for four hours. Both of which sound very appealing.

For now, though, I will st continue to lay on my couch and blasy Asking Alexandria out of my laptop. :) It's making me feel a little better.

Hope you guys are better people than everyone thinks I am.

This...

is not going so well.
The new year that is. I guess it isn't going bad though. I just feel like nothing has changed. But, what did I expect...not much, that's what.

I have, however, taught myself how to knit in the past three days, so the start of my year has not been all loss. I must say, my scarf looks pretty kick ass too. I am pleased.

I am also pleased that I get to go back to school tomorrow. No, I am not one of those nerds that actually like school. I am getting restless though. I like to be busy, and over break I have been, well, not. It has been putting a damper on my life.

Cutting caffeine has been making life hard too. I am having mucho problemas concerning that. Decaf coffee just isn't the same somehow, and my mother refuses to buy caffeine-free soda. So, looks like that won't be happening. Which is fine. Less headaches for me. :)

Goodnight World. My bed calls.
