How to have the perfect social life

School-and it's social scene


Technically, you're at school to learn (and to be fair, it does involve a lot of books). However, realistically, you're getting an education in more than just math, social studies and language arts. Your also learning how to interact socially with other people your age, from
your area, and with similar interests.
You just aren't graded on that part.

For decades, junior high and high school have offered teens a unique experience, dealing with an enclosed social scene. You work,play, and
interact with your classmates on a
daily basis.

Which type are you?


Individuals are all diverse, unique and wonderful human beings.
Well, most of the time. The school social scene often involves a few familiar characters. And maybe people identify you as one (or more). Sure, there are some unfortunate personality choices...like The Cafeteria Fight Starter and The Girl Who Glares At You All The Time Because She Clearly Doesn't Have the Confidence or Artistic Vision to Respect Your Bold and Creative Fashion Choices. But there are a lot of great girls in the mix, too. Do any of theses descriptions sound familiar ( or possibly identical to your yearbook profile)? No shame, people, no shame. There is nothing wrong with being a band geek or an athlete!

The Jock
What you know: She leads the cross country team in fall and rocks soccer and softball in spring (and plays every other sport in the months in between).
She's who you'd call if you ever needed coaching; an extra intramural team member; someone to lift a car.

What you don't know: Don't dismiss the Jock as all brawn and no brains. Remember, the brain's a muscle, too. She may be strong, but she's no simple stereotype.

The Trendsetter
What you know: Her hair is always styled with an accessory you'd never though of using. Her outfits are so cutting edge you couldn't copy them if you tried. She knew that jeggings were before denim did.

Due to her quirky and inventive sense of style, she's got the latest looks before they hit the  runways. You would call her a fashionista-but she made up that word before you even knew it.


What you don't know:Fashion may not be everything to this creative chica; her other interests are often more diverse than she lets on.

The Studying Star
What you know:The inside of her locker door is covered in notes; her backpack is stuffed with books-some of which she reads for fun!- and her calendar is filled with study group dates. She's seriouse, and she's also your best bet for a tutor, should you need one at any point.

What you don't know:Despite the fact she's ultra focused on nailing the top grade, don't assume the Studying Star is all work and no play. Once the SAT's are over, she just my transition into class clown.

The Drama Queen
What you know:But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? Why it's the Drama Queen-and every move she makes is theatrical.She's the star of every school play and sings her heart out in the spring musical, but she's not above chipping in a performance for the annual variety show, too.

What you don't know:Just because you don't dig live theater dosen't mean you need to EXIT, STAGE LEFT. The drama queen often has friends who don't love auditioning, performing, or anything acting-related, at all.

The Green Girl
What you know:She's ecofriendly. She wears free-trade fashions and never touches food that isn't organic. She doesn't just recycle - she got the entire school to recycle. (Unfortunately, the school wide program did not include recycling paper your last algebra test was sprinted on before you had to take it. But you'll ace it next time.) Your school should be proud to call this sustainable, sassy a student. She's keeping it real and using recyclable materials, everyday. (Your welcome Earth)

What you don't know:She may be serious about being ecologically conscious-but that doesn't mean she's too serious to have some fun. The Green Girl loves having a few laughs just as much as you do.

The Tech Genius
What you know:You just bought the latest electronic gaget. She's one who can show you how to use it.Computer crash problems? she can fix your worst hard drive issues in 15 minutes. For the love of gigabytes, she built a computer out of pencils and sticks for fun! Some people have the gift of gab. She's got the gift of getting technology in a way that's both amazing and helpful. Go Tech Genius!

What you don't know: Just because she's most comfortable in front of a computer screen doesn't mean the Tech Genius always wants to fly solo. She craves time with her friends just like the rest of us do.

3 Cutie Campass looks!

The Classic Messy BunTossing it up into a high messy bun after jumping out of the water can be a cute and simple solution for any type of hair; especially when you want to avoid getting it full of sand! After getting out of the water, simply use your towel to shake out excess water from your hair. Then pull your hair either up high or down low and fasten it with a hair tie, letting pieces fall out all around. This style looks cute and messy in all the right ways!       
                                      
                                                                                 





The Low Side Braid
A simple loose side braid is definitely one of my all time favorite styles for when my hair looks a mess. It’s especially awesome in the summer for when you get out of the water and your hair looks terrible but you want it to look cute later! Simply pull your hair to favor one side and braid loosely. Later on when you take out the braid, you’ll have loose waves for a hot beachy look.



The Bun With a HeadbandMessy buns are great, but I know my biggest problem is that my bangs sometimes make it difficult for that style alone to be effective in taming my hair. They always end up falling out into my face! A simple and cute solution to this is to use skinny colored headbands with your bun. First, put your hair into a messy bun, leaving it poofed a little at the top. Then add one or two headbands for a great look that will keep those annoying fly-aways out of your face!

Cool Nail Art Pens, & How To Use Them! This Will Teach You Step By Step How To Do This.

If you enjoy reading then you will LOVE this post!



Looking for a beautiful way to spice up your look? Nail art can complement your outfit for a special event or add a unique flair to your appearance every day. While very detailed nail art is best left to professionals, there are a number of techniques that you can do in your own home. With a little practice and a lot of patience, you, too, can create beautiful, unique designs to brighten up your nails.

Step 1. 

 Make sure your nails are in good shape. Learn how to keep your nails healthy and beautiful. Your nails should not be bitten. You don't need a manicure to start creating nail art, but you do need to make sure that your nails are clean and shaped well enough that they look even. Also make sure that your cuticles are nice and healthy.To make them soft you can use petroleum jelly

Step 2.

 Choose the right products. There are a multitude of different paints and polishes available for nail art, and your choice of products is completely up to you. Experiment with a few different brands and types of polish or paint to see which you like best, and don’t forget to give acrylic craft paints a try — these work great and are a whole lot cheaper than nail paints or polish. You’ll also be able to choose from a variety of implements to help you apply your paint. You can buy professional-grade nail art kits that include all the brushes, stripers, and marbling tools you’ll need, or you can improvise. A toothpick or bobby pin, for example, can help you apply dots and swirl colors with precision, and thin-tipped detail brushes available at your local arts or hobby store can work just as well as special nail art brushes. In addition, remember that you can create art on your natural nails or on artificial tips, and the variety of artificial nails is truly dizzying. Perhaps most importantly, though, make sure you have pure acetone for quickly removing mistakes, and have a small brush and/or Q-Tips, makeup pads, or cotton balls available solely for applying the acetone.

Step 3.

Look for ideas and techniques. This article is a good primer, but if you have trouble coming up with ideas after a while, or if you want to get more in-depth information about techniques, consider taking a class at your local nail salon. Just a few hours with a professional teacher can advance your skills like years of practice. There are also a number of books on nail art. You may be able to find one in your local library or bookstore, but if not, buy them online. Finally, the web is a great resource, especially if you’re just looking for new ideas. There are several sites on which people post their latest creations, and you can also find a few forums frequented by beginners and pros alike. Also, watch videos on sites such as YouTube that show you step-by-step how to do certain designs.

Step 4.

Get your materials ready. While nail art requires a lot of patience, you’re also constantly working against the clock when you’re creating it, since the paints and polishes dry fairly quickly. Before you begin, make sure you have everything you need ready and accessible, especially acetone for quickly removing mistakes.

Step 5.

Give your nails a base coat. Before you begin your nail art you need to create your canvas. Depending on the look you’re going for, you can paint your nails a neutral color, such as clear, white, pale beige or pale pink, or you can paint them any other color you desire. You may also wish to divide the nail into two or three different colors. Do two coats, as it strengthens the nail and gives a better finish. Make sure your “canvas” is neat and even, and allow it to dry thoroughly before proceeding.

Step 6.

Create your nail art on top of the base coat. Dip your brush or other tool in one color of paint to make sure the paint adequately and evenly covers it. If your brush has globs, excess paint, or not enough paint, you’re going to have trouble painting. Keep your art simple. There’s plenty of room for creativity — you can create pictures, abstract designs, etc. to your heart’s content. However, don’t make your nails look too “busy.” Simple designs are often the most beautiful, and if you’re a beginner your chances of success are far greater the simpler your art is.

Step 7.

Apply a top coat. Once all your nail art is dry, paint over it with a clear protective acrylic top coat to seal and protect your nail and your hard work.

Step 8.

Care for your art. Reapply a clear top coat every two or three days to protect your art and keep your nails looking shiny. Apply cuticle oil daily. Treat your nails with care — wear gloves when gardening or doing other work, and exercise caution when performing tasks such as opening soda cans, as they may damage your nails. 

You Can Get These Nail Art Pens Anywhere Like Walmart, Target, etc.

Latest Hair Trend! They are awesome!!!

Feather hair extensions are so fun to have, you can change them depending on what color you feel like using for the day or not change them from a period of a month to 6 months – whatever floats your boat. You can choose from different colors – from blue to red to blonde to a mix of green and yellow or to any color you fancy.

The great thing about feather hair extensions is that, you can wash, curl and blow-dry them without causing any damage to them. If you take good care of them, they can even last longer than 6 months especially if you got the synthetic ones. Real feather hair extensions are much better though because they are a lot softer and look more beautiful too.

Feather hair extensions are wonderful because you no longer need to dye your hair to get highlights.
