Graduation

It finally happened.

Today is the day I graduated!

I feel so happy but at the same time so sad.

Even through all those struggles in school, studies and project and life getting in the way, my class were the ones who made it all better.

I never had a class like that before, who's accepting and understanding in that way and I gotta say I learned a lot from them!

The celebration was amazing. I had a blast! There was music, dancing and pure out LOVE from everyone, including other classes. I made a few videos about the performances and the truck rides, I will add them later on because I still need to edit them and cut them and glue them and what not.

Before the celebration everyone met outside the school for some drinks, snacks catching up and sometimes a little tear. We had fun and laughed and we then we received class name tags. It was extremely excited and funny how everyone received their class name tags. Some had such hilarious ones! I was happy when I got mine. It says ''Classes Artist'' I literally puffed my chest up, waved at them all and said ''Finally! My art has been recognized and acknowledged!'' It was very heart warming to get these class tags, it's a way of naming a person in one word that you knew for 3 years that describes them in so many ways. 1 word that contains 1000 words. 

 And then there is of course the throat screaming truck.

In Sweden, you ride in a back of a caravan or truck that is being pulled by a huge vehicle with a decided class poster and some music to make the ride more awesome.

Party party and what not!

''If you think labor market is tragic, you should see our absence/attendance.''

Our class was lame at always showing up in time. 5, 10, 30 minutes late. Perhaps even an hour or two. To tell you the truth, many of my classmates, even TODAY, came a little late, but juuuuust in time!

 One of the most memorable times of the day was when I saw one of my ''before-friend'' coming towards the truck and waving to me. Our friendship kind of broke a few months back. When I saw him, I gave him a pouting upset look, but when I saw his face I couldn't help but smile and wave, so that he could drop that sadness and smile back.

He came near the truck to congratulate me on my graduation and gave me a little bag with a gift in it. It was heart warming. That even after such a long time, he hasn't forgotten me.

That's where when it was time for a reuniting fist bump.

I literally pulled my shoulder after that, but it was worth it for getting a good friend back.

What I learned from my class, life and my parents, is that everyone deserves a chance, be it one or one-thousand. A chance to make it all better between each other even if it's a raging flame of lava.

Gonna have to do some catching up to do with these peeps!

And one other thing, if you care about someone, don't ever ever EVER give up on them.

Watch them from afar but never leave them and always stretch a helping hand.

After such a huge celebration, I admit it, I'm tired. My make-up was running, my hair was fluffing, my eyes were falling.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I only had 4 hours of sleep!

The tension was getting to me!

After the celebration I've spent some lovely time with my parents, eating at an Asian restaurant and just bonding with them. I've had a whole new view of things, life and my parents. Right now I just have a huge need to be around them. Now that I have a chance I hope I will!

My parents also gave me my own, private photo-shoot <3

 Sassy <3

Rock that hat! Ah-Rock it haaaard!

 All pictures where taken near the waterfall in Vindeln

And then of course, every Princess, needs a King <3

My beloved Dad.

Worlds best Dad! Love you! 

And of course, my beautiful Queen <3

I love you Mom <3

You're the strongest person I know <3

 A few little gifts I got from my family and friends <3

Not all of them fit in the little table there but I'll bring you guys up for a close-up later!

 And of COURSE, I had to take a picture of my lovely graduation hat!

It has all the beautiful words of my beloved classmates inside <3

 So.

Graduation?

It feels great.

But at the same time,

Sad.

I still have so many regrets.

So many things I haven't done or said.

Never managed to open up.

But I guess all of that taught me that if I won't risk it, I won't brisk it.

But I can't dwell on it.

I gotta move forward.

And one things for sure, I feel FREE!

(Thanks Dad for the amazing pictures! <3)

Preparing for Life

I haven't been so active lately, but I guess my last post kind of cleared it all up. School, University, Graduation, that's a lot to do!

Now of course prom is coming. I'm psyched! 

Unfortunately I won't be going to the actual prom dance. After hearing that there will be a lot of drinking and such I decided not to go. 

Lately the days I found out that someone else I knew wasn't going to the prom dance either, so we decided to spend some time with each other instead.

So technically, I have a date!

GAH!

And this date of mine is the most adorable person I know so I'm frekkin happy!

I'm not gonna spoil who it is, so I'll spoil it after Friday ;p

We are planning on going to a restaurant and just have fun! It's going to be awesome I can tell, instead of going to parties that have drunks in it it's best to just have fun with someone as adorable as my date! 

So since prom and graduation is coming, I kind of noted I have absolutely nothing that can make me ''beautiful''.

Yah, Make-up.

So I literally panic shopped these two days.

Luckily my mom was very supportive and patient with me and walked back and forth with me to find the perfect matching make-up and of course jewelry. 

I spent more money than I get in a month!

But with all I have right now it's probably enough for years!

 I got this fancy looking lipstick from Viva La Diva called Summer Breeze. I absolutely love it! I also have Moon Walk (Turquoise) and Kharma (Purple) lipsticks from their company, I frekkin adore them! Although I managed to ruin Kharma because I extended it while it was still inside the case.

 Of course I had to buy two different colors of foundation for contouring my face.
I never tried this one but it was recommended from a friend.

I honestly am in LOVE with Nude colors these days. Mom went crazy and started searching for them for me. She found the last case and I literally jumped and said I loved her, haha.

 

These were kind of the same as Nudie but Isadora did have some colors Nudie didn't.

And like any girl in this world, you gotta get them Brow Palettes!
This one was the last one left for the Mid Brown color collection and I must say, I got really upset when I opened it at home, it was USED.
It wasn't used too much, but I lost a bit of faith in humanity there for a while.
Every time I go around shops I find some earrings missing from their collection or make-up palettes being opened up, or ALL lip pens being used.
Some people don't have any manners and this usually happens in Sweden, I've never seen such a thing happen in Lithuania.

 Like I've said before, mom got crazy with the eye-shadow palette searching and she found the all color Viva La Diva color palette. I absolutely love this one, it has over 70 different colors!

I just had to buy this eye-shadow.
I love plumb color and when I found this I had to have it!

 

And of course welcome to girly-land. Fake eyelashes! I dislike the pre-made ones so I bought cut pieces instead. Usually I don't go for them, but when a make-up artist used them on my wedding make-up, I kind of liked it!

 Of course, I got absolutely tired of the liquid liner so I thought it's Gel Liner time!

 Mom bought me some jewelry for the Graduation because I'm not a ''jewel'' person I had to buy some new ones. Got a bracelet, a ring (probably my first ever) two earrings and a necklace that match everything!

 And what is make-up without some nail-polish! I love ''essie'' nail-polishes. They are the only ones that stick to my nail! Others after a day fall off and I hate that!
The story about that teddy bear it actually true love. When I was shopping for my jewels and other accessories for my hair and such, I saw this little teddy just hanging there and I immediately fell in love with it. Sadly all my stuff was already scanned and mom was prepared to pay, until mom took out the bonus card and the cashier said if we buy another item we will get a discount. I rushed to the teddy.
And now I have him in my hands 
Oh yeah.
Better Love Story Than Twilight.

 These little poopers! I was looking for them everywhere and now I have them!
I love the case. It reminds me of the Dragon Balls and it kind of brightened my day haha.

 And now probably the saddest news of the day.
I hear a rumor  that my favorite Game shop is closing.
GAME.
I was extremely sad because that is where I usually buy all my games.
I am not a 100% sure if this is true because I haven't heard anything from their website but all I know is that were selling everything 40% off.
EVERYTHING.
Games, controllers, candy, merchandise.
I panicked after I saw the 40% discount on everything and started searching for a game.
Pff.
EVERY GOOD GAME WAS GONE.
I had to call my friend to ask him about games and every game he said that was good was not even there.
Except for MGS V.
But it was rather expensive so I bought the cheaper games which I kinda had some familiarity with.

I also bought some shoes but I didn't take a picture of it. I probably will when I go meet my date tomorrow!

I also had my braces changed today! Right not it's the color of Lavender! (Baby Purple)
Frekkin love it but I'm in for some pain.
The dentist clearly asked ''you sure you will be able to handle it with this wire?''
I said ''YAH''
So, currently nothing hurts but I'm prepared for the worst!

PS. I added some new music to my blog instead of listening to the same crap over and over again!
Enjoy and Stay Strong!
