Shopping in the Fashion District



On Tuesday my mom and I went shopping in the Fashion District in LA. We had a fantastic time and I finally found my Debutante dress! I am really pleased with it and I can't wait to wear it at the ball. We also found my Winter Formal dress along with some other fun pieces. There are so many fun and crazy outfits in LA- especially the hats! My mom and I had some fun with that as you can see!

Buccaneer Bash

Last weekend we went to our final NCL Fundraiser: The Buccaneer Bash! We had such a wonderful time and it was such a great event! My mom was a liaison so we have been preparing for the fundraiser for quite some time. There was a silent auction with all the money donated to charity. I'm not sure how much we made but I know that it was in the thousands! This was also a fabulous night because I got to spend time with my girlfriends on the dance floor! We love to dance to our "Wannabe" theme song and dance. In fact, we were the first ones to start moving! We also had fun just catching up and hearing about each other's college plans. My friend is going to Stanford and I'm very happy for her!

Barack Obama elected President!








I was so excited to see Barack Obama elected as our next President. Even though I don't agree with every single issue, I love his ability as a leader. He has united our country and given our nation a new hope. I feel so proud to live in America and witness this historic time in history. It was so nice watching his acceptance speech with my mom and my grandma- we were all a little teary-eyed.

College Safety Meeting





The other day the Ticktockers met at CSUCI to learn about college safety. An officer met with us to tell us very interesting statistics and safeguards for our future. I learned that college is one of the safest places to be in the world and that you can avoid trouble if you don't make bad decisions. Wow, that was a new idea. I also learned that most accidents are usually alcohol related and happen in a car. Two things that should never be put together! It was a very informational meeting and I loved getting to see my friends. It's always nice to catch up!

Halloween

Wow! Life has been so busy lately that I haven't had much time to post anything. I've been working on college applications a LOT. I'm applying to UCLA, USC, LMU, Stanford, Chapman, and Pepperdine.
Anyway, I had a wonderful Halloween! It was so nice that Halloween fell on a Friday this year; I just couldn't resist throwing a party! Of course I was Barbie and I even convinced Evan to be my Ken! I had about 30 people over and yes, we went trick or treating. We had a great time dancing and just spending time together. I think the event went really well and I hope that everyone had fun.
Not to mention, I had a fantastic day at school. I wore my mom's flapper costume that she wore when she was a senior. We decorated the entire school and it was fun seeing everyone dressed up. We had a costume contest during lunch and a pumpkin carving contest as well. It was such a fun day and this was one of the best Halloweens yet!
