{Personal} Updates and the whatnot

Hi guys! Sorry for the lack of updates and posts, I'm in the works of a picture day post but as of right now I don't know when it's going to get posted  (╯︵╰,). I'm currently getting back into the swing of things as far as school goes so my schedule as of late has been kind of hectic. I'm going to try to finish my picture day post but I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to finish it; my inspiration to write it kind of went out the window and flew away to who knows where... I do have some other ideas I'd like to get out in the near future so I'll try to get them to you ASAP! The other thing I'd like to work on in regards to my blog would be my posting schedule. For the summer I tried to post ever 7-10 days, and that seemed to work fairly well, so I'm going to try to stick to that still but I'm also going to work on maybe getting more posts out sooner (like every 4-5 days) to keep things moving. I don't think I'll ever be able to get a (good) post out everyday but I will try to keep things somewhat consistent!

Once again I'm sorry for my lack of posts and I'll try to adjust and make it up to you as the school year starts to settle down, but until then you can follow my twitter (I don't tweet as much as some people, but I do tweet at least every day) if you'd like, and I'll hopefully see you really soon with a new post~

♡ Lot's of love ♡

{TAG} Thirteen Personal Questions

So I wasn't personally tagged but I decided to steal the tag from Vanessa from 'Citron and Guavaberry' because I had nothing to blog about this week and it made me feel really bad not to post something. (I promised to post something at least once a week and goddamnit I'm going to stick to that ᕙ(⇀‸↼‶)ᕗ)

Let's do this~

What do you order at Starbucks? 
Iced caramel macchiato or something caramel. Always caramel. Always.

What's one thing in your closet you couldn't live without?
My Doc Martens. OMFG they're my favorite pair of shoes. I wish I could wear them in the summer as well, but I'm short so they cut me off awkwardly and I don't know how to wear them so they don't. But if I could wear them everyday of the year I so totally would.

What's one thing people don't know about you?
On a not-so-nice level, most people don't know that I suffer from depression and social/stress induced anxiety. Diagnosed earlier this year but apparently I've had it for about four years. Not fun.

On a happier note, most people don't know that I'm OCD about pens and pencils. If you have a nice one, or I find a nice one, you are never getting it back. Ever.

What's one thing you want to do before you die?
Travel the world, help people, have my own personal library, own a cat... that's more than one thing. I think travel is the one I'm most passionate about though. I want to go EVERYWHERE. Good and bad places.

What is one food you can't live without?
My first thought was strawberries. I loooooove strawberries.

What's one quote that you live by?
"You were given this life because you're strong enough to live it." I dunno who said this, or said the original version because this is my take on it, but it's something I have to tell myself quite often. I've been put through what I have because I can handle it. (I'm not religious btw, I know there's a version of this like, 'you were given this life because God knew you could handle it' or something like that, js)

What do you like and dislike about the blogging community?
Ooooh, okay, I had to actually think about this for a little while. What I like about the blogging community is the opportunities it gives you. The opportunities to meet new people from all over the world, the opportunity to try things you weren't able to before, to get your voice heard, to do all sorts of things. That's one of the reasons I decided to finally make a blog; to get into a community that I could finally expand myself in and grow in.

What I dislike is the fact that there is this stigma that some bloggers are 'better' than others and that you have to prove yourself and make it big. It's all one big popularity contest for some people and it makes me so annoyed. You should blog because it's something you love and enjoy, not because you want to be better than someone else at it, or to gain tons of followers. That's just shallow.

What is your number one song on iTunes?
It's Papparazzi my SNSD but that's mainly because I had it on repeat for days and fell asleep with it playing once. ^^;; I go through songs quite often when I find one that I really like, and honestly I can't think of one that I like more than the rest... maybe Cherry Pie by Warrant... or anything from MCR's Black Parade album. ♥3♥

What kind of style would you describe yourself as having?
I have a very mixed style, I like girly things, punk things, goth, sporty, rock, you name it. It depends on the actual piece of clothing, rather than trying to fit into one style.

What is your favorite number?
3

Two hobbies?
Writing and reading. I have a lot of hobbies though... (obsessing over korean pop stars)

Two pet peeves?
People with no manners. (UGH they make me so mad. BE POLITE DAMMIT)
Ignorant/arrogant people (also included: assholes)

I'm really big on learning facts and forming educated opinions. I personally love learning and I have a lot of things I'm really passionate about, and I hate the people who act holier-than-thou when they have no clue what their talking about.

Your guilty pleasure?
Watching movies/hanging out with my mom. It's sounds soooo un-teenager-like, but I love being with my mom. She's my biggest supporter and I can talk to her about anything, so getting to do something simple with her really puts me at ease. Especially if I'm particularly stressed.

------------------------------------------♥♥♥♥--------------------------------------------
I hope this wasn't too boring >.< I'm sorry I didn't have anything better to post! I'll try to have something beauty related for next week.

I'm not tagging anyone in particular, but if you feel like doing it go right ahead! Lots of love~
Have this gif of Bangtan because Sailor Scouts as your reward for reading this post.

Introductions of sorts (#/。\#)

Writing introductions is so much harder than I thought it was going to be omg

I've tried writing this so many times and I just have not had any luck with it. Telling people about you, without babbling through text, is surprisingly harder than it sounds; or at least for me it is. So let me start over:

Hi, my name is Amanda! This is my new blog (sorry for lameness of design, really new to blogger), and this is my attempt at blogging (*ノ▽ノ)

So, I started this blog for a number of reasons. 1) I've always wanted to blog. I've always been a little envious of popular blogs ‘cause I’m like, ‘why can't that be meeeeee’. 2) Hopefully soon I'm going to begin DIY-ing and I want a place to share my creations and whatnot. 3) Aspiring beauty/fashion junkie, and as much as I love tumblr, I figure having a blog like this would be good for me.

Should I bore you with telling you about myself? Sure, why not?

I'm going to be a high school junior this upcoming school year. My birthday is in the beginning of September. My music taste is literally all over the place; KPOP, AC/DC, One Direction, Indie stuff, JRock, yadda-yadda. I consider myself an artist; writing, painting (oil), photography, and music. I just started dance again, but that’s a long story so. I'm short (5’), curly-haired, and loud. Hopefully I can find my voice through blogging, and hopefully I can make this a regular thing. One post a week sounds good, right?

Lots of love ♥ Panda
