Day 30-Who am I?

My name is JalesaNicole. Im a student in high school && try to be a perfectionist. But i know that Im not. I believe that anything is possible && I open my mind up to almost everything.

 I love to have big dreams and I don't plan on chasing after them because I already know that they'll come true. I just need to be patient and wait for them. I wanna be a role model for young girls && show them that "you don't have to [be] or [look] like everyone else to be amazing." You don't have to do what [everyone] else is doing. Be your own person because the results are so much more better.

 I believe that mistakes are a part of life and we need to make them to learn. Life is a learning process.
 
I love fashion because I can express myself with the different patterns and colors. I don't have to be too "revealing" to show that I can look good. I don't need to put myself out there.

 I love writing. I can express myself sooo much better through words because words are the unspoken language that everyone can understand. It's so much easier && I feel free. I've been writing ever since I was little and I don't plan on ever stopping. 

I smile even when there's something wrong because those moments of sadness you'll never get back but those moments of hapiness you'll never forget.

 I tend to stay to myself && I don't call everyone my friend but I'm very friendly && I like to meet new people even though I come off as shy at first.

So there's me in a nutshell. Not everything; but close. This is who I am and I'm learning to love myself more && more everyday. I'm learning to accept my flaws && to embrace them because that's what make me; me. && It can't get any better than that.

Sneak Peak:: OOTD for next week. :)

Day 29 - can always make you smile

awww. :)

::Day 28:: Then && Now

It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else's eyes. 

~Sally Field

Then

Now

Yupp I've changed a lot. I've definantly become more confident and learned how to stick up for myself. Now I try not to care what everyone else says as much. I used to dress really out there too with lots of colors but now my style is more vintage and mature. I know how to do more creative things with my hair and make up too. I think I've changed for the better but there will always be that little "old" piece of me that turned me into the young lady I am today. :)

Day 27 - Oh dear!! :0

Ghosts! enough said. I don't wanna get into details because I will freak out. I don't like talking about them whatsoever. And I put up a cartoon version because I don't wanna use the real version of ghosts.

What are you afraid of?

[[JalesaNicole]]

This Is Dedicated To You

She was a really beautiful actress. She played as the original Cleopatra. I havent seen any of her movies but she was really popular in my grandma's day and stuff. But she was like a huge "sex" icon in her day. To me she's gorgeous. :)

Media Lies && Over Advertise.

So I don't know if anyone has heard about the Chris Brown scandel on "Good Morning America"...Well apparently he went on a HUGE "rage" and of course everyone is angry with him; again. smh. (shaking my head) Here's the video:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-lXVFOBRwk

There are better videos on CNN.COM
click videos
then click entertainment on the left side

I really dislike the things said about him in the videos. Especially the one on CNN.COM.
Because everyone makes mistakes but he's being penalized the most. There are so many other famous people that have done worse but they're making it seem like he's such a bad person. In all honestly I think he handled himself really well during the interview becaus he wanted to talk about the album., NOT old news. I don't know if he actually did go on a rampage afterwards but the media has definanly blown this incident out of proportion.


oh yeah!! Chris Brown's hair color...blonde? so not cute. What do you guys think?

::Day 22 - A picture that confuses you::

I have no idea what was happening in this picture. I look so annoyed like I want to slap her. lol. Me && her used to always get into arguments and she would irritate the crap out of me.

His name is Fruit loop Jr. [insider] But yeah I take him wherever I go if I know Im going to spend the night there.

Day 19- I miss you. :(

I love this picture of us! :)

I miss coming home every day from school knowing that you'll be there. I miss not having someone to be there to vent to and then give me a big hug afterwards. The play fighting, the name calling, the sharing of food, the laughs, tears, and love we shared. I miss my brother. We only see eachother every few months sometimes longer and I hate it because he's the closest person I have in my family.

P.S. yes I know I skipped day 18. I haven't forgotten. Im gonna make a video for that one. Hopefully the video will be up tomorrow. :)

:: && Then It Died! ::

Ok as someone of you may know from my previous blog that I have a HUGE english reaearch project that is due tomorrow. It's worth 500 points and I've been working on it since 12pm. I just now finished at 7pm. THAT'S A LONG TIME!!! Of course I took mini breaks but I sat working at the computer for soooo long that I started to get a headache. Yupp! I'm truly a dedicated, hard-working student. But do you wanna know something?? My computer cut off around 5pm leaving me in tears! I cried my eyes out. My computer died and I had not saved one drop of work. Teachers are always telling us "save your work! Save it now!" But did I listen? No I didn't, and I was left crying like a baby. So finally the computer turned back on and THANK GOD!!! the computer saved it. My heart was racing with joy. I was already stressed enough because my english teacher wasn't going to accept it late and if I re-started it I would be up all night! So I continued finishing my work and I LITERALLY saved every 10 seconds. haha. I definantly learned from my mistake. I'm not going to make that one again.! So always remember SAVE YOUR WORK!!! :) haha.

• Hello everyone! So I know that my blogs are like so behind but I can't help it. I have had soooo much school work, that it's crazy!! Like I have a 500 point research project due monday for my english class. Hopefully I finish it by tonight.
• Last saturday was my military ball for ROTC. You can see some pictures in my blog "The Princess && Prince". It was sooo beautiful and I had an amazing time. I won an award from [The American Legion] for scholastic excellence. When I have more time I'll do a post about my awards && ribbons from ROTC. It was a n honor to recieve that award because no one is as lucky to personally recieve that award from an army commander their sophmore year or throughout their whole life. So THANK YOU! :)
• Last night I went to CiCi's pizza with the drill team. I had so much fun. We have truly learned to bond and work together as a family. I know that we're gonna just keep getting better. :)
• Ok so that was basically it. My new obsession is scarves! I'll definantly do a post on that too. I still love nail polish of course.! :) There is so much coming up that I'm excited about. Um...when I'm done with the 30 day challenge I'm considering to do videos.? possibly. I don't know if I'm ready for that step though.

Well Good bye loves.

MOMENT 4 LIFE

[Nicki Minaj]

I fly with the stars in the skies
I am no longer trying to survive
I believe that life is a prize
But to live doesn't mean you're alive

Don't worry about me & who I fire
I get what I desire
It's my empire
And yes, I call the shots, I am the umpire
I sprinkle holy water upon the vampire

In this very moment I'm king
In this very moment I slayed Goliath with a sling
This very moment I bring
put it on everything, that I will retire with the ring
and I will retire with the crown, Yes
no I'm not lucky I'm blessed, Yes
clap for the heavyweight champ, Me
but I couldn't do it all alone, We
Young Money raised me, grew up out in Baisley
Southside Jamaica, Queens and it's crazy
cuz I'm still hood, Hollywood couldn't change me
shout out to my haters, sorry that you couldn't faze me
Aint being cocky, we just vindicated
Best believe that when we done this moment will be syndicated
I don't know, this night just remind me of
Everything they deprived me of
P-p-p-p-put your drinks up
It's a celebration every time we link up
We done did everything they could think of
Gr-Greatness is what we on the brink of

[Chorus]
I wish that I could have this moment 4 life, 4 life, 4 life
Cause In this moment, i just feel so alive, alive, alive
I wish that I could have this moment 4 life, 4 life, 4 life ( I could have this moment x3)
This is my moment, I just feel so alive ( I could have this moment x3)

[Drake]

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah, ugh
What I tell em hoes bow bow bow to me, drop down to ya knees
[From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/n/nicki-minaj-lyrics/moment-4-life-lyrics.html ]
Young Money the Mafia that's word to Lil Cease
I'm in The Dominican Big Papi Ortiz
Doin' target practice all these bitches just aiming to please
Shoutout to the CEO 500 degrees
Shoutout to the OVO, Red Wings and fatigues, oooow
Niggas wanna be friends how coincidental
This supposed to be y'all year we ain't get the memo
A young King, pay me in gold
Forty got a bunch of weed he ain't even rolled
These niggas be droppin songs they ain't even cold
Weezy on top and that nigga aint even home, yet!
Yeah, be very afraid these other rappers getting bodied and carried away
Fuck it me and Nicki Nicki gettin' married today
And now you bitches that be hatin can catch a bouquet, ooooh
Yeah, you a star in my eyes, you and all them white girls party of five
Are we drinking a lil more I can hardly decide
I can't believe we really made it I'm partly surprised, I swear
Damn, this one for the books, man!
I swear this shit is as fun as it looks, man!
I'm really tryna make it more than what it is, cause everybody dies but not everybody lives, Ahhh

[Chorus]

This is my moment
I waited all my
Life, I can tell it's time
Drifting away I'm
One with the sunset
I have become alive
I wish that I could have this moment 4 life, 4 life, 4 life
Cause In this moment, i just feel so alive, alive, alive
I wish that I could have this moment 4 life, 4 life, 4 life ( I could have this moment x3)
This is my moment, I just feel so alive ( I could have this moment x3)
Aliveeeeeee .

Day 16 - switch lives w/ for one day and why

Ok so everyone should definantly know who this is. I get so many compliments saying that I look like her, and I guess that in some ways that I do. She's really gorgeous and very talented. So if I could be anyone for a day, why not her? I might as well experience the life of my "twin." && on top of that she's a celebrity! :)

::Day 15 -something you want to do before you die::

Before I die I want to be able to shatter a glass with just my voice, alone. I've seen it happen so many times on tv and movies and I think it's actually possible. i want to be able to do that. It would be so amazing to have such a unique talent.

::Day 14 -something you could never imagine your life without::

Ok so I need my phone for like everything! Im pretty sure every other teenager does too. :) haha. Im not obsessed with my phone, like I know when and when not to use it but yeah I prefer to have it with me at all times. But yeah this is the google version of my phone. T-mobile LG Sentio. T-mobile is pretty decent. It's affordable but the service isn't the best in the world. Well I'm done for now. I have to go to a driver's teen and parent meeting. I'm getting my license soon!!! :D If I don't get back to late I'll put up another post.

::The Princess && Prince::

Ello guys && gals:) So yes Im still dragging the 30 day challenge out but it will definantly be over soon. haha. I'll start back up on it tomorrow. Um so yesterday was my ROTC military ball && my boyfriend's birthday. Yesterday was simply amazing. :)  I went with a simple look for my dress. It was a black halter dress that is shorter in the front and longer in the black.  It was simple but yet really elegant. I wore diamond stud earrings and a simple rectangle diamond necklace and blacelet. I didn't wanna go overboard on the jewelery.
I didn't like my hair too much. My older sister took me to go get my hair done but I guess the lady didn't know how to deal with my type of hair so yeah... I could have done a wayyy better job. But oh well I guess. The military ball was held on an army baase in fort belvoir. The ball room was simply gorgeous. Outside was a beautiful setting of water and mt.Vernon. I absolutely loved it. :) After It was over me and the boyfriend went out together then picked up his little sister and went to ihop where we ran into a whole bunch of friends from the military ball. It was so weird. lol. But yesterday was so much funn. Now i'm super tired because I got home at 1am and woke up at 7am. Yupp, tomorrow is definantly going to be a bumm day.
[[JalesaNicole]]

::Day 13 - something you hate::

Washing dishes!!! :/ I truly dislike washing dishes. Usually my sister does them. Recently I have been doing them because she has been slackin but other than that I hate doing them. Espacially the silverware!! I told my mom when I move out I'm going to use paper plates && cups, the only thing I'll have to wash is my pots and pans. haha. I'll probally grow out of this phase eventually. But for now it gets two thumbs down!!

[[JalesaNicole]]

::Day 12 -something you love::

My new addiction!! I love Nail polish now!! why?? I have no idea but it is truly my new obsession and this isn't even all of it. But this is definantly I love. :)

::OOTD Autumn leaves && Pumpkin spice::

LoL ello guys! :) So Here's what I wore.....Tuesday? yupp! I wore it Tuesday. :) I named it "autumn leaves && pumpkin spice" because the dress is like a autumn leaves golden yellow color I think or mustard color. Either one works. haha. && pumpkin spice is because it just seems like that's somethin you'd eat or drink in a log cabin and my scarf just had a log cabin feel to it. :) So that's how I got the name. It's quite pointless to be honest but hey that's me being [simply unique] So I hope you guys like. :) Um....I'll try to name where I got everything but I seem to have forgotten where I got the dress...so just bare with me please?

Sorry about the poor quality of my photos!! I've been using my phone lately Because I think that my camera is broke? And the lighting was so poor in my house. But I tried my best.

Ok so my dress was from H&&M, atleast that's what my mom told me. lol. She bought it for me....last summer. I'm not really into dresses && skirts but I'm trying something new. That never hurts.

My cardigan sweater is gray and has like that old type of feel to it. It's from Papaya.

My shoes are from Target! I love that store.

I just wore ordinary blue tights to go with my scarf.

I would say my style is very Vintage. I love raiding my grandma's closet && jewelery box. That's where I got my scarf in the photo. It's very warm && I absoulutely adore it. It went so well and I love how the colors mix together.

So that's basically it. I hope you liked. :) Again, sorry about the poor quality of the photos.
