Things I've learnt from Girlfriend this month

I just bought this months issue of 'Girlfriend' (not the one on the picture, the other one of Eddy and Bella) and as I was reading it I thought 'I has taught me a lot' so here is the list:

• In pictures, the contrast of the dress matters
• On the 21st of June, it's world music day
• Apparently, pale skin is in. Thats good on my part.
• Ingrid Michaelson is becoming more recognised in Australia, with her song on a tiny picture of an iPod. Its 'Winter Song' BUY IT! (page 110 people)
  
• I wanna buy T2 and drink it
• 'Yo Gabba Gabba' is apparently a good TV show. I reckon its scary.
• Some author has ripped off twilight (down to the cover).
  
• Girlfriend's a huge contradiction, with little tags of 'Reality Checks' but having heaps of gorgeous models on their pages
• And finally, this blog sounded better in my head than it is. But I'll post it anyway.
  

Nail painting is fun...when you have nails

my pandora bracelet is annoying me when i type. I would take it off,but my nail are still a little wet (I wish i didn't decide to paint them) and i don't want to wreck my bracelet. Oivey.

Today I went downtown to get a new school bag. All my friends were at netball. I don't see why they think playing in freezing weather is fun. But then, they might not see why I enjoy doing 13 hours of dancing. hmm. Anyway. So...I had to go downtown by myself or with dad. I chose myself, so I could have a look around. It wasn't as bad as I thought, shopping alone is quite calming. And the store people are very nice. Even a cute boy working at a store smiled at me on the way out *squee!*. Spent $50 bucks at cotton on. I love their winter stuff its really nice. Better than their summer stuff. My new bag is from Mark Anthony's. I would have liked better, but beggers can't be choosers. After all, it is mid-year, and bags aren't a huge priority. Its brown, has silver-ish swirls and is roxy. It is not as big as my last bag (thank gawd! I never knew that I could cop so much flack from a bag! Geez they were really scraping the bottom of the bucket for things to bag me out with). Anyway. I got chips from Maccas, and they gave it to me in this cute mini-bag. And I got an ice-chocolate from Sugars. Everyone go to Sugars, my sisterworks there!.

And the best news, my party is tonite! Yay! 21 girls at La Porchetta LOL. Have no idea what I'm getting.

Anyway, I'll tell you about it tomorrow!

just one fo the many things that make teenagers self-conscious

Ok, this is a convo from the internet that a teenage girl had with a teenage boy. Both were 13. The girl had been having a weird relationship with the boy (not as in gf-bf relationship as in the boy was mean to her for no apparent reason). After reading this, you'll see why so many girls are self-conscious. The girl's name is 'Miss Y' the boys name is 'Mr X': (the convo bit turns out weird)

hey Mr x
								hey fag
								gee thanks
								now u call me a name
								I don't want to, thats mean
								ok then fag
								stop being gay, mr x
								ur being gay fag
								shut up, ok? what did i do to derserve this?
								ur just weird
								so that makes it ok to bag me out all the time?
								yerp
								well wuld u prefer me to be some flirty, boring normal girl, eh?
								well thts better then weirdo dramtic fag
								i
								im not a fag
								ur the fag
								shutup you fagwit
								please stop all this
								sorry grandma
								thats alright, retard

You see, the girl started this convo because she wanted to end this war, because this isn't the first time Mr X has been mean. It didn't work. What else could the girl have said? What would you say if that happened to you? She retaliaited, only because she couldn't think of anything else to say. I'm not posting this to show how stupid boys are, but to show that bullying is never cool.
