DIY: Galaxy Shorts

Finished product
 So the day of my formal, I had exam leave and didn't have to go to school, so I decided to first dye my shorts, so I could paint them on Thursday. The original was this:

From this post: http://ilikestarryskies.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/michelles-style-061012.html
I wanted to dye them black, but I was kind of impatient and rinsed out the shorts too early, but I followed the packet instructions. >:( Anyway, they turned out kind of a deep purple. Hmph.


Didn't want to dye them again, so I just stuck with it.

On Thursday, I painted them. And I actually followed the instructions of this beauty guru, Andreaschoice. OMG, I love her so much, she's so beautiful! ♥ OMG, IT WOULD BE CRAY CRAY IF SHE SAW THIS. IF SHE DOES, THANK YOU SO MUCH, I LOVE YOUUU ! ♥
This was her video:


This is how they turned out, not as nice as I wanted them to, but whatever. :P

Took this at night, so it's actually way brighter and nicer during the day. (: 

And I also wanted to stud the back, but I didn't stud them the way Andrea did hers, mine were a bit more simple. (:


Well, hope you enjoyed this, thanks for reading!

I Had a Dream

Last night had the weirdest dream ever. Lemme get a glass of water first. Lol.

Okay. This is what happened.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My family and I were meth cookers. And on the day we decided to cook it, the police came to our house to arrest us. So it was all action packed and everything, we ran to the garage and got into the car. Which was like a caravan. OMG, it was like Breaking Bad; WILSON THIS IS YOUR FAULT. 

Anyways, we drove like hell and the cars were following us. And there were these bad boys in our car. It was full of them. By bad boys I mean guns, lol. So me and my sister grabbed the biggest ones we could find and started shooting at the cars behind us. Somehow we lost them, and we were driving in this really dark forest. OMG it was creepy. Okay, so we reached this hill and we were halfway up it.

Then we stopped and started cooking meth. BUT. We heard a noise. So we froze. 

We grabbed our guns and hid behind the stove, and then this army of guys ran out of nowhere from the bottom of the hill and charged. They started shooting. Oh and their attire was like farmers or something, even with the straw/cowboy hats thing. 

So we started shooting back and my parents were behind the stove with these massive machine guns firing at them. They started screaming at my sister and I to go into the caravan for cover. So we ran in, but I have no idea where my sister went, maybe to the bathroom lol. I grabbed this long sniper and started shooting from the side window and basically mowed  down the whole gang of men. But then the sirens started and we saw police cars behind these trees. And for some reason, these policecars weren't Australian, they were the American ones in the movies, lol. 

And then my parents couldn't get in quickly and I ran outside which was stupid because I ended up getting shot. My parents then got into the caravan and drove away. Then I woke up. 

DREAMS.

So tell me a little bit more about G and R. How old are they? Do they know each other? And if so, do they get along?

Are you attracted to the last male you talked to?
- My dentist. He’s married and I’d be really worried if I was.

- Group.

Can you remember who your closest friend was when you were 11? Do you still speak to that person? If not, why not?
- Ashly, kind of. And I think I’ve gotten this question before; might’ve done this tag before, haha.

Have you ever had a dream about the last person you texted? What happened?
- Nope…not…..yet. ;)

Have you experienced anything in your past that you find difficult to talk about? (You don’t have to be specific about it, just say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ if you like.)
- Yep. The time I was struggling with my panic attacks. I’m so proud of myself of pulling out of it. But talking about it makes me sick and thinking about it, triggers it a bit.

What is something you do every day, that makes you happy?
- Sleep. I can’t believe I said that but yes.

If your friends didn’t get on with your boyfriend/girlfriend, would you end the relationship?
- No, but if it gets to a point it’s actually something about him, I’d consider it. Friends are more important in my opinion.

Have you ever felt discouraged from something you liked, or had an interest in, because other people didn’t like it, or didn’t seem interested in it?
- Yep. My taste in fashion is slightly….mmm. and my parents are like -.-
