Remember My Other Blog?

I have decided to fix up my other blog. It was kind of sad, it only had one follower. So in my effort to make it spiffy, I am going on Facebook and Twitter. Yay! Follow me, like me, tell your friends!! I want my blogs to be big. I want people to hear all of the crap rollling around in my head. My other blog is meredithstyle.blogspot.com, for those of you who forgot. See you on the net (the internet, that is).

What Has Happened to Me Thus Far

Hello blog pursuers!! I am pretty good. Thank you for asking. Since I haven't posted in a long while, I thought you might be wondering what has been going on in my oh-so-glamorous life ( it's not really that glamorous). Aaaaaaaaand...we're off!!

• I moved. Different house, same boring Springfield. Hey! That could be a movie tag line!


• I am reading The Help by Kathryn Stockett. One of the best books I will ever read ( and re-read), and that's high praise for me because I am extremely picky in my book selections.


• I got strep throat and a really bad sore throat within one month. This caused teachers to ask me questions about what they could do to get me back at school and then they would go on to tell me something along the lines of, "Your waaay to smart to fail, Meredith." Even though I was making straight A's.


• I was really sad that Steve Jobs died. I have a first generation iPod touch that is almost to the point of breakdown, but I love it. I would really like to have an iPad 2, though.


• I have almost had an epiphany of fashion. It has manifested itself into an obsession. My magazine issue stats are as follows: 2 of British Vogue, 6 of American Vogue, 10 of Teen Vogue, and multiple books, sewing magazines, and fashion magazines other than Vogue.


• I have discovered Man Repelling fashions. If you haven't heard of this here's the fantastioc blog- www.manrepeller.com.


• I have decided to go to Parsons: The New School of Design. It is one of the top design schools in the U.S. Marc Jacobs, Donna Karen, and Tom Ford all went there.


• If you don't already know, I am going to be a fashion designer when I am old enough to get internships and crap.


• I also love Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge. She has impeccable style sense and a beautiful smile.


• I think I have reached the end of my list. But, before I go, I have one last thing. In my strive to be more worldly, I would love to know if you aren't from the U.S. Plus if you are from the U.S., but you are from a state other than Missouri (or if you are, it doesn't matter) please leave me a comment in the again , conveniently placed comment box at the end of this post. Or if you have a the last post I posted under this post, the word, "comment" is printed under the post and that word shall lead you to the still conveniently placed comment box at the bottom of the post. It looks more complicated than it actually is, trust me.


• Bye!! I love you all. Even though I do not know you. But, isn't that what world peace is all about?

Input-a- palooza!

Very imporant question to follow these bolded words.

Okay, transport yourself back to 7th grade. Would you have enjoyed a sewing club at your school and why? Please leave your input in the conveniently located comment box at the bottom of this post. Please don't include how much I sound like a teacher. Thank you blog- stalkers! (Just kidding. You guys aren't stalkers.)

The Absolute Longest Week in the History of Ever

Happy October!!!! According to my mental book, I can now officially allow myself to say that it is fall outside. Yay!
Here is my week-
I moved to a different house last weekend. You could say it was a semi- high stress situation.
Then I went back to school on Monday. So, I come home from school, the night passes and it's like 10:30 or something and I go to brush my teeth before bed. I put the toothpaste on the tooth brush and look up in the mirror at my refection only to find that there is a GIANT FREAKING SPIDER (it was at least the size of a half dollar) on my right sleeve. There was a slight moment where my thought process went something like this:
"Holy Mother Mary!! There is a spider on my arm!! It looks like a Brown Recluse! Their bites make holes in your skin! I hope this spider didn't bite me! Holy Crap! It looks bigger than it did a second ago! " Cue my screams. My new neighbors probably think I am dead now. Long story short, the spider is now deceased.
The next day I woke up and my throat hurt. I figured that it was the result of me bloody murder the night before. So school lets out, I go home and feel like a piece of dog crap. my mom was home and she told me to take my temperature. 100.2. Yay! A fever.
By Wednesday my throat was worse. I stayed home from school.
On Thursday, my throat was so bad I could hardly talk. I went to the doctor and they took my height, weight, and blood pressure and then they stuck a giant mutant Q-Tip down my throat. They then ran tests on it. The doctor told me that I had strep throat. I have pills now.
Then Friday came and I stayed home again.
And that brings us to today, Saturday.
On a completely different subject, I got a dress the Wednesday before last. It has a white background and pink hydrangeas with charcoal gray leaves all over it. The silhouette is very 1970's. It is a maxi dress with ruffles at the bottom and a ruffle at the neck line that forms the sleeves and it is cinched in at the waist. The dress is from White House Black Market and the retail price was $198! I got it from a friend of one of my mom's coworkers for (get this!) $48!!! Jealous right?
Anyway, I also discovered this pre-college program from Parsons University ( which has one of the top fashion design programs in the nation) and this program offers a course in fashion design! Awesome!
I have nothing else to say now. Have fun in the blogosphere, blogreaders!
