5...4...3...2...1

So I feel very accomplished!
Well more or less... haha.
I'm finally almost done with my summer assignment. It's taken me a little while, with a bit of procrastination *cough cough*, but I'm almost done. Unfortunately I can't find any similes or metaphors which is annoying me because I need to find at least ONE! Arghklsdfalxjlksaf; Hemingway annoys me sometimes with his blunt journalistic style and his stoicism... Anyways! I didn't do much "back to school" shopping this year, I only bought a couple new things that will hopefully last me a while. Here are the five things I've bought this summer that I'm most excited about:

1.

My new romper that I got at Urban Outfitters on sale. :)

2. My latest Henna that I did on my hand.

{I bought the Henna...and then did it at home to clarify. :)}

3.My brand spanking new GLASSES! OHH YEAH

4. Wallet + Purse {Target}

5.
And an Aladdin soup/food holder that keeps food nice and hot.

IT EVEN HAS A POP-OUT SPOON...oooh ahhh

So there you have it.
I'm pretty excited about all of that... it's nice being able to buy little things like that ya know? It helps when you're employed don'tchathink? hehee.

I hope you all are having a fabulous day!
Enjoy the last couple of days of summer...

Love--Jessica Leigh La Lou

PS: I recently found this Belgian girls choir on the net called-Scala & Kolacny Brothers.

Aren't they amazing? :D

Back to School Blues

So school's fixing to start in about a week on the 23rd.

How depressing.

And I know that people older than me keep telling me to enjoy it...

pretty soon I'll be out of high school and onto college.

But what if you genuinely dislike high school?

I mean I have some friends that I have a good time with

but when it comes down to it... if they were such good friends

then how come I didn't get a call this summer to do something

How come I was calling all the shots?

Or if I did get a call or an email, they never followed through.

And the one major organization that I'm apart of-debate

kind of fell through because I haven't really made friends with any

of the other debaters.

So what am I supposed to do?

Take another year of it and hope that it works out?

Or should I take culinary arts? But that takes up two periods so

I wouldn't be able to take debate...

So now I must decide *dramatic music*
Wish me luck. :/

Paper Heart

I just saw the movie Paper Heart!

Charlyne Yi and Michael Cera were in it.

And I really, really liked it.

Here's the trailer:

I'd recommend it to anyone reading this because:

1. It was really cute and quirky

2. Michael Cera was in it

3. Charlyne was very real and relatable

4. It was just all around good.

So go head over to Blockbuster or a Red Box or Netflix

or whatever you crazy kids do to watch movies nowadays. haha.

XOXOXOOXOXOXOOX
(yeah I just hugged and kissed you multiple times

heaven forbid that would make anyone's "pet peeve list" hahaha),

BLOGIVERSARY! Woot Woot

So it's been one year.

One year of blogging...

ISN'T THAT AMAZING!?

I'm so excited that I've gotten this far with my blog. :)
At first I just started it because I thought it might be fun; that it would give me something to do in my boring summer. And then it turned into a place where I could just go and vent or talk about things that make me happy, giddy, sad, angry, crazy, amazed, etc. etc.

I have grown to love my blog!

And I'm so happy that I have had followers, who have well followed me up into this point. haha.

Thank you guys so much for being so lovely! I love the feedback... I get excited everytime

I get a comment. So thank you, for being YOU!

I decided to decorate my little cakes, which Callie made for me (thank you thank you thank you Callie Jean love ya:) in honor of Leonardo.

Because he's just so cute. ^^^^^

So here's to another year! Hope it's magnificent... :}
Thank you all once again.

And happy b-day little blog.

*sniff sniff* They grow up so fast.

PS: Here's some birthday themed Modern Family clips. :) Enjoy.

Blog Award!! WHOOOOO! + Give Away Win

Thanks for giving me this award Mariella...:}

So the rules are to describe where you think you will be in ten years and pass the award on to ten other bloggers.

In ten year, I will be twenty-six years old. I will be living in Paris with my European husband that will be filthy rich. My French will be fluent and I will be running a patisserie down the road from my house. My family will be in my guest bedroom because I flew them all over for a month long visit because my bakery will be well known and my six cookbooks will be on the New York Times Best-Seller List and published in varies different languages, so I have enough money for flight tickets. My siblings and I will still stay up late talking about anything and everything and will always stay in touch. All the times that I spent working in my earlier years will have paid off because I will be rolling in the dough. haha.

Hey a girl can dream right? Hah.

I pass this award onto:

1. Maria's Secret Garden
2. The Magical Bean
3. The Beat My Heart Skips
4. Love Quirky!
5. Try to Be Stylish
6. My Name is Yeh!
7. Musings of an Optimist
