I'm backkkkkkkkkk

Belize was such an awesome experience!
The culture was different, the people were friendly, and the hard work was character building.
Soo, picture time!

The first thing we had to do was flatten the hill in the area we were going to put the playground

There it is already flattened. We had to weed the hill and stuff though. PAIN in the butt. And we kept finding odd bugs.

Then some other people started painting the church.





Some people got distracted at times though...We also had to hand mix the cement we used.


And these are the blocks we used for the fence we put up around the playground.
When we were done mixing cement, we used it to keep our concrete blocks together. We had to hand fill
Then We put the fence up
And weed wacked around the church because it has TONS of weeds.
Then we put the playground together

And here's the group that made it all possible.These are just work pictures, I have more pictures from when we went to old Belize, did some shopping, when we were in the airport, when we went to some Mayan ruins or something like that, and just random pictures.

So, I'll work on getting those posted soon.

In other news, for those of you that have been following for a while, you all know that I had a boyfriend named Dylan.
We've broken up three times, and this last time that we broke up, I thought we were done with the whole cycle.
But apparently.....
He never lost his feelings for me.
And he wanted me to know that the day before we left Belize.
Lovelyyyy.
Boys can be so stressful.
Anyways, I've decided I want to give him one more chance, because he says he's changed. And do believe him, because he's become closer to God and that can change a person.
But it's a long story and stuff.

Off to somewhere foreign

I'm waking up at 2:45 A.M. tomorrow.
Then I'm going to Belize for a week.




So, I went shopping the other day. I only took a picture of a skirt and I shirt I didn't buy for some reason... I always forget to take pictures of what I try on.

I kinda wish I had bought it now.... Oh well:(


I did, however, buy a shirt, skirt, and a pair of shorts. I was going to wear the skirt and shirt paired with a cardigan and tights to the church service we'll be attending on Sunday, but apparently it wasn't modest enough.

So, I went through my mom's closet, picked out a skirt that I kinda liked, made it high waisted, and *BAM!*, church appropriate attire.

So, anyways, I'll see ya'll in a week. Hopefully with pictures, and a tan. Haha:)
Also, I have one scheduled post for all of you while I'm gone, but that's it. And it's short, nothing special. Oh, and there's no internet out there. So, I hope you all are having a good week, keep it safe.

Adios!

It isn't how you imagine it...

Yesterday, I went to see Food Inc. with my mom and some friends.

Shirt-F21 Belt and Shoes and Blazer-Thrifted Jeans-AbercrombieGlasses-F21


So, this shirt was the one that I didn't know what to do with because it was so long and it was just sort of an awkward piece. Welll, I put it in the dryer and... POOF! It became shorter. I like it much more now.

I went shopping today for some work clothes, because this coming Tuesday, I'm heading over to Belize for a mission trip. I'm excitedddd. Hopefully I'll get a tad bit tanner. While we're there, we get to go cave tubing, which is something I have yet to experience. I'm expecting it to be fun though. Hopefully one of the days we get to go shopping, because I haven't gotten to go shopping in a foreign country yet. It seems to be I'll be experiencing many firsts on this trip.

1.Traveling outside of the US
2.Leading worship singing
3.Shopping in a foreign country
4.Building a playground
5.Cave tubing

A good ol' fashioned time.

WHAT I WORE TODAY:

Shirt: Forever21 Vest:F21 Necklace:F21 Undershirt:Charolette Russe Belt:Ex-Boyfriend's Jeans:Abercrombie Shoes:Thrifted
So, when I bought this shirt, I bought it a couple of sizes too big. I did this because
a) I couldn't find it in any other size
and
b)I figured I could try the oversized tee look.

It doesn't look as oversized as some shirts out there, but for now I'm happy with it.
Oh, and I tucked it in because otherwise it's too long for my taste. And on the sides it has some weird draping going on. Well, I don't know if you could call it draping, but I can't think of a better word at the moment.

Now, originally, I was going to wear this shirt, with one of my skirts I had purchased, to Church on Sunday. It didn't work out for me though, so I resorted to wearing a cami and a cardigan that day. But that was my original plan for the skirt when I purchased it, to wear it with high waist skirts. I don't know how well that's going to work out though. I'll probably try the combination sometime again in the future.

So, today is supposed to be a do nothing day, hopefully though I'll be able to get my mom to take me to Wal-mart or someplace like that to get some black tights. I want to have some so I can wear them with a dress to church on Sunday.


P.S. These are some of my favorite songs right now.

A pirates life for me


Shirt-F21 Undershirt-Charolette Russe Shorts-Hollister

This shirt reminds me of a pirate. I usually don't wear it a whole lot, because it rides up and whatnot. But I decided to incorporate it into my outfit today. Usually I wear a black vest with it, but I was going to go to RCS like I mentioned in yesterday's post, and didn't find the vest appropriate for the working enviorment.

Shoes-Vans Anklet-DIY
Necklace-Hi Ho Silver Co.

Ring-Hi Ho Silver Co.
Every DIY bracelet or anklet was made at the camp I went to.

So, my school starts in 4 weeks! I still have to finish my summer reading and the questions that go with it. Which I really have... three weeks to do, because I go to Belize for a week. I hope I get it done. Otherwise I'll be stressed.
And I don't like being stressed.

Anyways, hopefully my mom will take me school shopping. I want to get
.a pair of black jeans
.a pair of white jeans
.a button up shirt
.dressy sandals
.new moccasins
.slouchy shirts

Hopefully I'll find those things!

I'm sending out my love to all of my lovely readers out there. And all of my followers. Thanks for staying with me even though I've had a slow down in posts lately due to camp and lack of inspiration. Thanks for the comments, I love reading them!
