Wet n Wild Black Creme Etc.

  Ello guys!  As I get ready for my brothers graduation, please enjoy this random post.

  What I used was Wet n Wild Black Creme with Essie Shine of the Times and OPI Crown Me Already!  on top of it.  I wanted something... random.  So here is random!!

  So like I said, my brother's graduation from high school is tonight so I'm going to start getting ready for that in a bit (I have to play in the band).  It is outside on the football field and it is supposed to be nearly 90 degrees tonight.  It's going to be hot and sticky and blech but I'm happy for him.  I did my nails to match our school colors/my dress.

Happy graduating,

Em

Fantasy Makers Night Glow Reswatch

  My reswatch of Wet n Wild Fantasy Makers Night Glow.  This time I specifically paid attention to the glow.  It glowed for several days.  The glow did fade a bit each day though.  Once my eyes adjusted to the glow, it went away.  So it really only glowed for me for a few minutes after it was dark.

Four coats I think

  Everything else is pretty much the same.  But I think that I had an easier time applying it this time.

Happy glowing,

Em

P.S.-  I hope everyone in the NorthEast is okay.  We got hit pretty bad.  A lot of trees came down, a lot of wires, and a helluva lot of snow.  I know I just got  my power back after seventy-seven hours (luckily I had a generator).  Just hang in there and they strong.

Distressed

  Hey guys.  Just wanted to give you a little update...  With school and everything starting back up, I've been over-the-top stressed.  This year I have only one honors class, but I have an AP class that takes almost all of my free time.  All this schoolwork, plus receiving bad grade after bad grade (in a row, my first few grades back were B-, F-, D, D+, respectively in English, History, Math, and English again).  Grades are starting to pick up now that I'm used to the format that my new teachers take and everything but it doesn't take away from the over-stressed feeling I'm having right now.
  I'm still taking time to read my nail blogs, but I have to speed read and not get to see the whole post.  I don't have much time to do my nails either.  But more of that is that I do my nails and a few days later it is ruined because that stressed feeling is causing me to bite my nails.  I bit a couple so low that it hurts a little to type on them.  They need some TLC and some relaxation so I think they are going to be blank for a while which I don't really mind except that I have a ton of untrieds to go through.
  Currently, my last written post is my Del Sol post which is scheduled for the 20th of October.  I originally did this manicure September 6th (everything is out of order I promise) so you can see that I'm ahead.  I've got five (I think) posts for you from now until about Halloween time.  I really doubt that I can go that long without a color on my nails but I do think its healthier to just put the NailGrowth on and leave it that way.  I guess we'll see how long I can go with basically bare nails...

Happy (not)painting,
Em

IRENE!!!!!

  Woah.  We had a hurricane, an earthquake, and a bunch of other stuff that normally doesn't happen in the NE in one week!!  Freaky...  These are my Irene pictures.

  My dad and I went out looking for coffee (which was nowhere to be seen) and just drove around.  I didn't feel like being in my dark house (lost power, but we had a generator).  The lights were out from about 1 AM until 5 PM same day.

The water was creeping up on the beach.

A tree that closed a really busy road.

The boating dock of the lake.

Sigh.

The sunset that evening.

It was beautiful!

Adam pointed it out to me.

A lake near my house.

Happy waiting out a hurricane,
