goodbye, farewell, aufwiedersehn, adieu

you you, and you, and..

oh no, I'll be seeing you. 

This is it.

 The last day of  possibly the most magical year of my existence to date. 

We capped most of it back in November, but even just since then,
 more important things have happened, 

like this article I wrote for Teen Vogue on being homeschooled, 

and being interviewed for Fashionista.com for this post on teen retailers. 

It's been a crazy beautiful whirlwind and 2014 doesn't look like it intends on even LOOKING at the brakes.

Slow down? nahhhhh

You guys got yourself a seatbelt and a snack and got on for the ride, 

and I can't wait to see where we're headed.

I'll probably be the last to know.

I'm not a fan of making resolutions but I did make one I have every intention of keeping: 

Resolution the first (and only):   Do it with a bang.

If I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it 500%.

 And possibly an actual bang.

Sometimes the goal is simply to make as much noise as possible.

So round up all your envelope skorts, "Blurred Lines" paraphanalia, and photos of Kanye West,

 and put them in a time capsule. 

preferably buried in the back yard underneath several inches of concrete

We're headed for a new trend.

See you in the next year, don't be late.

so what school do you go to?

So I wrote an essay about being homeschooled for Teen Vogue and

 I may or may not be freaking out right now and it may or may not have less to do with Teen Vogue

 and more to do with my article being on the same page as a photo of Jennifer Lawrence.

ps. 

big hugs and slow claps for Julia Rubin, the online editor at Teen Vogue, 

for answering all my questions + being a generally awesome human being.

Notes From The Golden Globes.

These are the things that went through my mind while watching the Golden Globes last night.

In no particular order.

1. Lucy Liu would make an epic Disney princess.

2. I want to be Jennifer Lawrence. Forever.

3. Tina Fey + Amy Poehler are probably the funniest thing alive.

4. LOL at Taylor thinking she could win a category Adele was in.

5. ADELE IS BACK.

6. Jonah Hill + Megan Fox could totally happen and it would be awesome.

7. Me after Jodie Fosters speech: "............"

6. Laura Brown is writing the best Golden Globe tweets.

7.  Whilst pronouncing Les Miserables, everyone is French.

8. "Everyones getting loose now that we're all losers" - Tina Fey

9. Gosh thats a lot of people trying to stand on that tiny stage.

10. The Golden Globes are actually my favorite award show.

 Now can someone PLEASE explain to me

 HOW anything could beat Downton Abbey?

Justina
