The New Album from Beyonce

    Beyonce's new album titled "4" is finally available for purchase!
    If I were you I would buy the Deluxe Edition from Target, it includes 6 extra songs!
    Some people have turned down this CD and said they don't like it, and I was actually kind of skeptical at first, but once I listened to every song and now that I understand it, I LOVE IT!
    This album shows a more mature Beyonce with her ballads and 80s/90s-sounding beats. To me, these songs have been the most meaningful songs Beyonce has ever had...
   
You can listen to each song in its entirety on Beyonce's website: http://www.beyonceonline.com/us/countdown

Miss Me?

For the past 9 days, I have not been able to post anything on my website because I have been on the trip of a lifetime to Hawaii!

I stayed on the island of Maui and did so many fun things.

I took lots of pictures and tons of video and I can't wait for all of you to hear about the many special things I have done...

I don't want to give too much away about my trip because my friend and I are going to spend time editing and putting together vlogs (video-blogs) of my trip and I want them to be a surprise!

You can look on here and on my YouTube account (link at the top of this page) within the next couple weeks to see when my vlogs will show up!

I'm so excited to share this amazing adventure that I went on. I am so glad to be home though, because I really missed all of my friends. Anyways, stay tuned!

Love Your Looks

A Quick and Easy Tip to Loving Your Physical Appearance

This is just something quick and easy you can do to gain more self esteem- as far as your looks.

Look in the mirror every single day and find something that you like about your physical appearance. It can be anything from the color/cut of your hair, the way your face is shaped, your eye color, to your height or your nice smile.

Once you find something you like about yourself, write it down in a journal and write why you like that about yourself. You might not do this every day, so after a couple of months, go back to your journal and read everything you like about yourself...

You may learn that you like the way you look a little bit more than you think,

Love yourself,

Summertime, Fun In The Sun!

... But Not Too Much!

As we all know, summertime is here! This means more time outside in the sun, and sure a slight tan can look nice, but how do you know when you are getting too much sun? And is that tan really worth the side effects?

Well, the sun is obviously a necessity of life, but you only need it for about 15 minutes a day in order to absorb a decent amount of Vitamin D into your body.

Whenever I hear about people laying out in the sun in order to get a tan I tell them to stop doing it! It is so unhealthy for your skin to lay out for long periods of time, especially in the summer. Too much time in the sun can lead to premature aging (wrinkles), sunburns, and most importantly it can lead to skin cancer.

So how can you stay safe in the sun? Clearly, the best option is to wear sunscreen. The best time to apply is in the morning after you shower. Also, if your skin is going to be in contact with the sun through out the day, you are going to need to reapply your sunscreen every 1 and a half to 2 hours.

I know that it can be relaxing or even fun to lay out in the sun by the pool with your friends, but you have to decide if it is worth the sunburn, peeling skin, aging skin, and even diseases like skin cancer. Also remember, you do not need a tan to look good during the summer.

So wear your protective clothing, and don't forget to put on the sunscreen, or you could end up like Kim Kardashian in the photo above (where she was on vacation and didn't put on sunscreen) and even worse...

To the Senior Class of 2011

Dear Graduates of 2011,

   I am so proud of all of you and I will miss you so much!
   Last year I didn't really have that many senior friends so it didn't really matter to me all that much when graduation day came around. But this year, I grew close to a few seniors and being able to see them graduate means the world me. I can't wait!
   I want to thank my senior friends so much for actually giving me the time of day because a lot of times seniors don't really talk to or hang out with people in grades lower than them.
   Of course I am going to miss my senior friends, but I'm more happy than sad about this day for a couple reasons:
     1. They are about to enter a whole new life experiencing new great things and actually get to start building a life of their own, and
     2. I know that I will still keep in touch with them. It used to be hard to keep in touch with people from high school, but with today's technology (Facebook and Cellphones), I'm sure it won't be too complicated.
   I'm so excited to see what my senior friends make of themselves in the future and I have to say that they are probably my favorite class of our whole high school. They are amazing people who know how to have fun  and take care of each other and I am so proud of them for getting through the past four years perfectly fine.

I'm so excited to see you all walk across that stage tonight, I'll be in the crowd screaming as loud as I can,

Love you all,

Thanks for reading,

Your favorite from class of '13,

-B
