What do I have in common with Blake Lively?

We're both in the March issue of Teen Vogue!!!
If you've been reading my blog, you know that about the X-fit Lycra seminar I participated in at Teen Vogue Fashion U.
Like I mentioned in that post, my group's concept for an ad wasn't the winning one. The one that won is featured in this month's issue of Teen Vogue.
So, in November, I got an email from Tracy, a creative director at Teen Vogue, and it basically said that they were shooting the and I should stop by. The shoot was really cool, and I had the chance to see the behind the scene stuff that goes on, like the cool camera that transfered the pictures to the computers and how the photographer transfered pictures from one computer to the other just by dragging it with a mouse.
After the shoot was almost done, Tracy told us (me and two other girls who also came) that we were going to take a picture that was to appear in the magazine. We were pretty excited, and surprise since that was totally unexpected. I mean I could have actually done my hair and get all dressed up had I known that I was going to be in Teen Vogue.

so yea- Check me out!! my name is also in print.

it's been so long-pic overload!!!!!!

I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving.
Today is Black Friday!! I didn't go shopping, did you?
I've been so busy with college apps, school work, ... that I really haven't had time to sit down and post a blog.
...Teen Vogue's Fashion U was amazing. I met so many girls from all over the United States, and one girl from Europe. I met people form different part of the fashion industry: editors, designers, and people who in advertising and Marketing.
My favorite seminar was X-fit Lycra, we were divided into groups and had to come up with ideas for an ad for them. My ad wasn't the winning ad, but the winning ad was beautiful-you'll see it in an upcoming issue of Teen Vogue.
It's amazing how they turned our ideas into an !!!
I got so much from that weekend beside all the goodies. I learned so much about the fashion business from people who are in it. How cool is that! I found out that I'm interested in advertising/merchandising-so I might major in that in college.

It's been a whole month and a day since I last posted. Let me just say, I took the SAT and I'm getting my result tomorrow-maybe. I don't think I used contractions, practicing on this blog did pay off.
So I went on this college trip, and let me tell you I am excited about college, and I realized that I want to go away to college, but not that far. I kept comparing everywhere to NYC.!!!
Fashion U!! I am excited !!!!
I really wanted to wear this Alice Temperley dress with ruffles from target, but I couldn't find it, and I tried to get the store to reserve it for me, but of course that was not going to happen.
SO I went to Macy's one day sale on Saturday, and I bought for less than $60, 3 dresses, a cute bubble skirt, and a nice shirt. Except for the dress which was red by Marc Ecko, everything was American Rag!!
I'm thinking the skirt should be for Fashion U graduation.
And I was also accepted to attend an event, CosmoGirl! , Girls' night in tomorrow. I'll tell you how it went. so yea.
