#mood

Ever have one of those moods where you want to drop everything and travel to explore somewhere new? 

That's exactly how I feel right now. I just want to walk under pretty fairy tale lights or sit at a nice café and drink my infamous Starbucks while eating a cupcake. Why not leave the harsh cold weather and go somewhere nice, calm, and beautiful? It would be a great change in scenery considering that the snow in my yard is over 32 inches!

I can only imagine what it would be like to walk under the Eiffel Tower in the spring with the blossom trees swaying back and forth surrounding it. Having a chance to tour Le Louvre would be trés parfait! I would love looking at all the art France has to offer. Then going to an authentic French boulangerie-patisserie to enjoy a baguette or dessert!
Then I would love to go to Rome to see the Colosseum, and once I was too tired to walk, I would go on a river boat ride. While I was there I would try every dish they would serve me. (preferably the pasta!)
Imagine England and seeing Big Ben towering over all the buildings. Oh I can't even picture how amazing touring all the old English castles would be!
Lastly I would have to go south to Australia to learn how to surf the big waves. Even though the "Big Things" are a major tourist destination, I would have to visit as many as I could on my travels. Scuba diving would be my personal favorite at the Great Barrier Reef being the biggest coral reef system in the world.

It's always nice to think about traveling around the world... definitely when you'll be stuck inside all day until the family calls you out to shovel. I'm totally suffering right now of wanderlust

 

Confidence is Key

Confidence is Key 

I am a teenage girl, and during this stage of a girls life, it happens to be one of the more emotional times. We are just figuring out who we are or who we strive to be, but we still have obstacles in our way that make us doubt ourselves. My post... is to ease the difficulties we face from time to time with some positivity. 

"Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent."

"Be Humble in your confidence yet courageous in your character."

"Self-confidence is the most attractive quality a person can have. How can anyone see how attractive you are if you can't see it yourself?"

"I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm already better than them." 

To accept yourself is the number one step to be happy. A body is beautiful no matter what shape or size. Let it be shone off because everyone was designed differently. Let your personality shine because there are no two of the same personalities. We put up standards for ourselves that shouldn't have to exist. I want to hear about goals in life and what YOU want to achieve. The obstacles are only a test, and to pass is to believe in yourself and care for yourself. 

           I watched a show on TV once and it said to look in the mirror and compliment yourself. 

1.) You'll think it's foolish and get a good laugh out of it.

2.) You'll see yourself in a new way.

Funny thing is, I did that for a while. I had a good laugh, and it made me feel better about myself. I did see myself in a new way, in a more confident way. Try it out!
My sister has an amazing program called The Confidence Project. It lets girls have a photo shoot for the day, dress up, and have fun. They have a bio next to the pictures they take answering questions like: when do you feel the most confident? Why is confidence so important in young women? It's an amazing blog, so definitely check it out.

Last thing I'm going to say is, to be happy and love who you are. For those of you who know me, text me if you want someone to talk to. For those of you who don't I'll leave the link to my tumblr so you can talk to me through my ask box.

A Few More Pictures from the Bahamas 2014

 & I will leave you with this picture

Happy Late New Year to everyone who reads my blog :) 

Hope everyone had a fantastic time with family or partying with friends!

Today has been the first snowfall of the year for us Mainers. It makes me reminisce on my trip to the Bahamas in the summer. Here's some photos from my trip! It was an amazing vacation,where we got to cheer on our very on Miss Maine Teen. She rocked the stage and made Maine proud. It was also a very relaxing vacation, going to the water park right next to the hotel or lounging at the pool. The best part was being with my family enjoying the whole experience. There are a lot more pictures that may be posted from this trip at a later date.
