Dexter: TV Wednesday

   So, recently I've been obsessing over the show Dexter on Netflix. the description on IMBD reads,

"Meet Dexter Morgan. By day he's a blood spatter pattern expert for the Miami Metro police department. But by night - he takes on an entirely different persona: serial killer. But Dexter isn't your average serial killer as he only kills people who fit a very prolific and precise "moral code" taught to him by his late father Harry (he didn't kill Harry, honest), and developed very thoroughly throughout each kill. While dealing with his daily activities and his boss, Sgt. Doakes, the one man who may or may not know the truth about his after-hours activities, he is given a friendly message by a guy referred to only as "The Ice Truck Killer" - a crime scene where there is no blood. This shocking discovery turns Dexter's world completely upside down. The Ice Truck Killer wants Dexter to play his game and Dexter is very eager to take on this cat-and-mouse chase throughout Miami."

   Now, normally I don't watch shows involving murder, crime, blood or anything like that. I'm more for shows like The Carrie Diaries and Revenge. However, my best friend, Emily recommended this to me and on the first episode I was hooked! Do yourself a favor and watch the first episode. I promise, you won't be disappointed!

A little bit of structure

   So, I was thinking about how I wanted to format my blog posts and started to violently brainstorm different ideas. Long story short, I had nothing. However, after catching up on some of my YouTube subscriptions I saw that a lot of them theme their videos according to the days of the week. For example, Tacky Tuesday" or "Wacky Wednesday". Now, obviously I'm not going to use those cliché names because I want this blog to be different and represent myself and who I am so here are my ideas:

Monday - Music Monday and/or Makeup Monday
   Telling you about my favorite songs or bands at the time & helping you discover some new music and/or reviewing some makeup/beauty products.

Wednesday -  Bookworm Wednesday/ TV Wednesday
   Basically just reviewing some books/articles I have previously read or what I'm reading at the time and giving my first impressions. Also, if I'm watching anything new on Netflix or anything like that and loving it I will also review my thoughts on that as well.


Friday - Fashion Friday and/or Fitness Friday 
   Giving my opinion on the most recently loved fashion trends and/or posting some exercise routines, healthy food/drink recipes, and maybe even tracking my weight loss as time goes on (I'm trying to eat healthier as well as diet & exercise regularly yet again).

   So, on Tuesdays and Thursdays I will be posting about random things going on in my life or maybe just some topics I feel need to be addressed but basically those are my opportunities to write whatever I want. If I can't think of anything to write about for that day I will not post anything but I promise to try my hardest to come up up with something! On the weekends I will be taking a break from blogging and doing things for myself. I guess I could tell you what I did over the weekend on Tuesday, huh? I guess we'll see but I'm usually pretty boring on the weekends anyways! Haha

Let's be real

   Everyone is different and that's one of the many beautiful things about the world. No one  person will ever be exactly like one another. Well, with different people comes different opinions, styles, likes, dislikes, etc., right?
   There are so many things we all want to say and voice out but are either too scared to or just don't know how to. Personally, I find it easier to write out my opinions. This way I have more time to thoroughly think about what I'm going to say next.
   This blog will be my way of voicing my opinions, sharing my thoughts, and maybe rambling about some other stuff too. I haven't exactly gotten that far yet.
   Let me start off by telling you a little bit about myself:
I'm a sophomore in high school and just turned sixteen on Sunday. I make mistakes... and a lot of them! I'm clumsy, lazy and a little  bit insecure. I'm slowly on the path to self awareness and learning more about myself every day. Aside from the negative things, I'm independent, ambitious, and respectful. I hate seafood, and love all things Disney! I'm actually almost positive I'm the reincarnated Walt Disney! ;)
   Well, that's all I can think of right now but if anything else comes to mind I'll be sure to let you know!
