Ballet Slippers of a Dancer - What's in my dance bag.

Today I will say the essential of what to keep in a dance bag - as well as what's in MY dance bag.



First off, I will list what's in my dance bag. 
~ Ballet Shoes ( I usually wear my dance clothing before I go to class )
~ Hip hop Shoes
~ 2 Water Bottles
~ Little gummies and snacks
~ Comb
~ Wrap Up Sweater 
~ Tap Shoes
~ Jazz Shoes
~ My Regular Shoes. ( No Dance Shoes Outside the Studio! )
~ Hair Thingy Bag ( Full of elastics, hairbands, more )
~ Wallet ( 15 Dollars or Less )
~ Dance tank / Bootie Shorts
~ My dance school logo t - shirt 


What I recommend is obviously your dance shoes and your dance clothing unless you wear it before you go to class.  You should keep water to stay hydrated while your dancing, so I keep 2 in case. I also recommend getting some of your normal t-shirts so you can put it over a leotard when you leave the studio. I always, always have elastics in a bag because dancing with your hair down isn't recommended or such a good idea. You always need to have it in a ponytail or bun. Since most studios don't allow street shoes, you need the regular shoes to walk out with, so have those with you. You can also get some snacks in your bag so when you get hungry, you can eat during a dance break.

Quick note to my fellow DD friends.

Most of you won’t read this, but I’m going to leave dork diaries. It’s not because of you guys, cause you guys are so nice! It’s just I don’t have that urge to be first or go on DD anymore, and another reason is all the flipping drama. But most importantly, I have work to do. Outside of school, I take 8+ hours on stuff like dance, acting, choir, and extra curricular a week, and not to mention, I have tons of homework and I have to maintain a straight A balance every semester. I never gotten a B, ever. And I don’t plan on getting one. And I’m not going to be one of those people who say I’m leaving for attention, yet still go on DD. I’m just going to leave, and I’m trying not to fuss about it. But I still will go on DD once in a while, not all the time. :D I might be back in a month, it really depends. But I won't leave FOREVER. Just remember that. Finally, I’m just going to say this. Bye.


Things I HATE.

Hey guys! :-)
( Hope everyone is having a good day, most schools started already since break, so stay in school kids. And don't do drugs. )
Anyway... I'm gonna show you things I hate, not specifically like food, or anything, but some things that I / people do that I absolutely hate.



Like my nails? Aha, here's a close up..
My hand was extremely awkward when I took the photo. 

Oh, and I drew a bunny for your bunny pleasure.
Ehh, don't say I draw bad. It was a second to sketch that...
So.. Enough with the picture. I'm going to list *some* of the things I hate. ( In no specific order ) 


  • To have so many options and strive to pick ONE. ex. favorite color
  • When someone *literally* turns around to talk to another friend and forgets all about you. Believe me, this happened. Several. Times. O_O 
  • To wake up grumpy for no reason
  • When people point out my flaws
  • Criticism
  • When I'm wrong and I feel dumb. 
  • When everyone's staring at me for an answer. 
  • When people copy me. And seriously, I can SEE them looking at my test. ... 
  • When people say, " You've woken on the wrong side of the bed, huh? " Or something along those lines. 
  • When people point out really small mistakes and you knew that already. It's like, stop trying to act smart.
  • When people act like they're really smart - yet, they're not. There's this one guy who finishes the first in everything in math, and gets some wrong. I might have been finished second, but at least I got everything right! - He's like, what do you do when your done? And everyone reacts that he's done - he get's AT LEAST 2 or more errors.
  • When someone *cough* *my sister* sings really badly while you're trying to do something. 
  • When your mom tells you to go to sleep. Yet, it's 8:30. 
  • When you don't have all your homework done by the time dinner's served.
And lastly, the FINAL THING I HATEEE!!
  • WHEN YOUR MOM DOESN'T GIVE YOU A UNICORN EVEN THOUGH YOU SPECIFICALLY SAID TWILIGHT SPARKLE FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY!!!!!! - You might not get you Twilight Sparkle is- if you don't watch My Little Pony - FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC ( Which I highly request you watch ) 
But, that's all I'm going to put down for now, I have a whole bunch more, I just didn't want to bother you with a huge list. So, I have to go now, and I will talk later!!

Hi, Hello, Hey, Heya, Hiya, Hayyyyy, etc.

Ahhah, I'm back.  Tomorrow  I have to head back to school, which pretty much sucks since I haven't catched up on my sleep. at. all. But I will get to rock all of my winter clothes and jewelry! Like so :

You see my awesome arm..
I got the hat from Target, by the way.


I'm glad I get to actually do something though, break's been a bit boring at home.. And just to kill some time, I'll just pretty much recap my day.. I had to wake up at 9:30 today to go eat some brunch ( Brunch is so fancy for a name, huh? ) with my aunt, her daughter, which I guess I'll just call my cousin, and my grandpa, and this guy who I'm assuming is my cousin's boyfriend. Assuming people, I think before they said they were just friends, but now I'm starting to think otherwise.. errr. Weeell, after that, they left, and my family went to go to this RV show. Apparently we had to be sucked in for 10 dollars for parking. But, it was cool, I never knew what stuff could be in an RV, but in this one RV I opened the door to the bathroom, and I saw a toilet someone must have used today. O_o Oh, and I guess to get more cash, they started a mini amusement park. Like, face painting, slide thingamajig, and a bungee house and some food stands. I didn't get attracted to that though. The food kind of looked gross.. But we left, and then drived back home. Apparently the weather decided to rain right when we got in the driveway, so when it started drizzling, my brothers and my dad put the furniture in, but then it started pouring really hard. It was weird. Oh, and an interesting not really  fact, I made some homemade lemonade today! Aha, I feel so prouddddd. Uhh, I guess it's a normal day, I basically ate and played games and rested for the rest of the day. I'm so excited I get to take more dance classes this year! Eeek! It starts tomorrow, so I'm going to the school to register, because it took a bit of trouble to register online.. 

Oh, and I've been laughing really hard from this thing I found online. Ah, autocorrect.

Looking forward to our date tonight
Me too, so excited, I just got new boobs
What? I didn't know you were thinking of doing that.
Me either, but my sister said they're having a two for one sale.
Really? I'm kinda shocked
Wait 'till you see them on me.
I guess.. Yeah...
Oh! My bad! I meant boots. LOL easy tiger

Random Blabbing

I can't believe it's 2013. It feels so strange. .0_0 Honestly, I can't explain how I feel about 2013, because it's just unbelievable...!!!! Because of New Years I usually LOVE to stay up at night on New Year's Eve, so as it turned 12 in the morning, I went screaming all around the house and I screamed in the intercom, HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!!! WOOOOOOOO! And basically I just kept doing that until everyone was awake and I just cooled it down with a huge laugh. .. I'm weird, I know. 


Oh yeah, I am going to start ballet and musical theater this year. ( I took hiphop and jazz and tap last year, so I'm adding more classes ) You probably don't care, but oh well...

I'm so excited for school to start again, I really want to see my BFF again! I also want to be WAYY more organized and show way more organization skills. :) 



Well, I think that's all I wanna say.. and I will stop boring you to death now! Oh, and I changed the background if you haven't noticed. Do you like it?

XOXO

MY DAY 1-1-13                                                                            
                                                                                                                                                                     
My Day : When I woke up, I was amazed looking at the date and being, "Today's January 1st, 2013." Currently, today has been pretty normal, ate breakfast - Mmm Noodles! Electronics.. And I ate a little lunch, out of the fridge. Then basically I just watched T.V. and played with computers. I forgot to mention, today around a half hour ago my brother's friends came over. I felt so awkward.. Especially since I was still in my pajamas. 0_0 I still am by the way. Then, you guessed it. More electronics! And here I am. Super. Bored. So.. Today has been a totally unproductive day..

New Year Resolutions?!

Aha, it's a new year and people usually make New Year resolutions to see if they made it true the following year. (And most don't follow it.. haha, me.)  Well.. I will be sharing MY New Year Resolutions with you guys!!!!


  • Sleep earlier - I'm really bad this year with my sleeping habits, I should go to bed at 9, but I go to bed at 10-11 and it's all computer's fault!
  • This isn't for the whole year or anything, but I just want to roll up in a blanket and yell.. IMA BURRITOOOOO!
  • Gain more pounds. For most people it's vice versa, but I'm actually pretty light compared to people my age group, so I want to gain a bit more pounds.
  • Keep up my grade average. I don't want to tell you what my grade average is, because it's a bit personal, and I don't want you to think, Oh I'm so dumb if I have bad grades or I'm such a braggart if I have good grades. 
  • Feel more confident with my looks. I don't know if this happens to you, but sometime in this year, I felt so ugly and alone, and it felt horrible. So I want to be more self confident. 
  • Not be such a crybaby... I admit it, I'm really sensible, and I HATE criticism. I want to change that about me. 
  • Have a way more clean closet. I'm a neat freak, so I like my closet to be color coded, and be organized in sections ( shirts, pants, jackets )
  • Avoid procrastination.. I noticed that a LOT in me, so I really want to do ______ first and not procrastinate. This happens especially with homework..
Well, that was pretty much my New Year resolutions, and if you liked it, comment and tell me YOUR New Year Resolutions either in the comment below or make a blog post if you have a blog on blogger about your new year resolutions.

Hey!

Ahh!! Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I have excuses though. I mean, it's the holiday season..

I was at a vacation for about 4 days after Christmas, and then I just had to relax.. BUT! Oh my gosh, it's 2013. Wow. I can't believe after all of 2012, I changed. Seriously. My personality is so .. Different. Just, wow..

Oh, and since I'm here, I am going to list what I got for Christmas. :)

~ 3 Movies
~ Bose Headphones
~ Pink iPad Case
~ Earplugs
~ 3 Mustache Earrings
~ 2 Mustache Necklaces
~ Mango Body Butter
~ Olive Body Butter
~ Cocoa Body Butter
~ Ornament

So, that's basically all I got, and I'm REALLY thankful and yeah.. Hope you had a merry Christmas, and happy new year as well!

It's.. Christmas Eve! o-o



Today I realized it's Christmas Eve.. o-o I know everyone says this and it's a bit cheesy, but wow. Time really does fly away. But, I don't care! I mean, it's Christmas eve! ~ That means... presents! I get to just spend time with family with the fire place on.. Speaking of which, what's your favorite thing about Christmas/The Holidays? Honestly, I love Christmas 'cause I get to feel all warm and cozy in mah awesome sweaters and hats.. Sadly it doesn't snow where I live, I wish it did on Christmas, that would feel so.. soo... AWESOME! It's a bit damp outside right now though where I live, since it rained. ( By the way, I live in California ) But, still.. I wish it had a more snowy affect to where I live.. I also love just the feeling of being cozy in my pajamas drinking hot cocoa while opening presents with family! Ya know, all those stereotypical things about Christmas. I'm excited to open my presents this year, I have like 6 presents, which I am VERY grateful for, and I'm really curious to see what they are.. Christmas treats are always really fun to make - and to eat too. Baking in general. I pretty much love everything about Christmas-not just getting gifts... Today I have been extremely irritating to my older siblings as I caroled all around the house. .. Ehh, I just really want it to be Christmas.. Is that a problem? O_o Aha, well, nothing much really happened today so far.. Recap : waked up, morning routine, wrapped some presents! Um.. Watched T.V... Ate breakfast, games, doing whatever, lunch, and here I am on the computer.. Well, that's pretty much for my blog today, so I'll just go now.. Oh yeah, the video : I'm really addicted to this song.. Aha, I love it.

Tips to Find Motivation To Do.. Homework!



  • Plan ahead. If you have a study period, do as much of your homework then as possible. The more you do when you are at school, the less you will have to do at home. Try to do it in class (if time is provided), at lunch, or any other spare time you might have. Get help if you don't understand. Ask your teachers: they're there to assist you.
    • Be sure to put the hardest class' homework at the top of your list to do.
  • Set goals and rewards. Once you've completed your goal and finished your homework, reward yourself with anything that you would find enjoyable and doable after you finish. (Don't use food as a reward, though - that could lead to health problems later.) Save a special book to read when homework is done, or make plans to talk with a friend on the phone as soon as both of you have completed your assignments. Go on your favorite website, or even dedicate yourself to a great project you've always been wanting to do.
    • Take advantage of any holidays or vacations that may be coming near. On a Thursday, tremind yourself that it is almost the weekend, and the moment this homework assignment is done you'll be one moment closer. Remember that Thanksgiving, winter break, or summer break is nearing, and the moment your homework is done you can enjoy it to its fullest.

  • Avoid procrastination
    . The surest way to get over procrastination is to take care of a task as soon as you think of it - don't delay and tell yourself you'll do it later.
    • Think of it this way: If you procrastinate, you're spending time worrying about the task in addition to the time you actually do it. If you just take action and complete it as soon as you think of it, though, you'll have more time to relax.

  • Work smarter, not harder
    . A fried brain absorbs little information. Break up your homework time into chunks. Take regular breaks. Set a timer; take a 5- to 10-minute break for each hour you study. Get up, stretch, and move around. Drink water and eat fruit: water will refresh your system, and an apple provides the same effect as an energy drink.

  • Think of the consequences
    . What will happen if you don't do your homework? Will you get a bad grade? Will your teacher be disappointed of you? If none of these things seem to apply to you, remember that homework is to help you learn, which everyone ultimately wants. In the real world, knowledge helps you master the rules of the game.

  • Think of the benefits
    . What will happen if you do do your homework? You'll get a great grade. Your teacher will appreciate your efforts. You'd have learned a great deal, and you'd be paving your way for a better life simply by putting your pencil to paper! Putting yourself in a positive state will reap in the benefits and ultimately surge you with the energy and hope to focus back on your work, and even enjoy what you're doing!

  • Find a place with less distraction
    . Set up your special study place. No friends, television, or other potential distractions should be present. Your homework place should also have a hard surface, like a table, to write on. If you need to do most or all of your homework on a computer, as many high school students do, make sure to avoid chat programs, unrelated websites, etc. If you have difficulty keeping focused, or awake, consider doing your homework at the library, at a table with some amount of foot traffic passing by it. The quiet atmosphere will help you focus, the surrounding mild activity will help keep you from falling asleep, and if you get stuck, there are those helpful librarians and references.

  • Clean your desk/room
    . It's easier to concentrate on your homework when you don't have clutter in your work space. Take 5 minutes to tidy up your immediate area before you get started.
    • Make sure you don't go on a cleaning binge as a way to procrastinate. Focus only on where you'll be working, and leave it at that.

  • Find a homework partner
    . Make sure this person isn't one of your crazy friends who'll distract you. Find someone to sit with who is quiet and focused. This will help you feel comfortable working, because someone else is working along with you. Just be sure not to end up talking more than working.

  • Create your own learning method
    . Everybody learns at their own pace and uses different methods to help memorize the material. Some find walking helpful, while others like to listen to music while they study. Whatever it is, experiment until you find something that seems to work well for you.

  • Listen to some quiet music (optional)
    . Listening to music and studying does not work for everyone. If you are going to listen to music, try to listen to classical music or instrumental songs. Or if classical isn't for you, just pick a quiet song that you don't know, so you don't get caught up in the music, and start working.

  • Do physical exercises during study breaks
    . It will help relieve tension and make you feel awake. Walk around a bit, stretch, do jumping jacks, or jog in place.

  • Make a routine
    . A routine will get you into doing homework as a habit. Schedule times and days so you are totally organized as to what you're doing this week, the next, and even the week afterwards. Surprises will occur, but at the very least, you know what you're doing!

  • Disconnect
    . Turn off computer, phone etc. that could distract you easily. Don't get wrapped up on the computer or phone on a break because you will not remember what you were learning about and it will delay your finish time. Stay away from them at all costs unless you must do the homework on the computer.
    • Put phone, computer, and anything else that might distract you far from reach. Then stay in a quiet room where you know you won't get distracted. Keep a timer for every 30 minutes to an hour, so you know how long you've been working and can still keep track of time.

  • Prioritize
    . Divide your homework according to your ability in the subject. If you're not so good, do it first. If it's an easy assignment, take a break and do it in 15 minutes or so, then get working again! If it's a long-term project, do it last. Not that it's not as important, but you need to save your time for the things with near-due-dates.
    • On the other hand, it might also be a good strategy to get easy tasks over with at the start of a homework session and save the hard stuff for last. Diving right into the hard stuff can be discouraging, and studies show that people learn best when they start with the easy material and work up to the harder stuff. Getting a few easy tasks done quickly can remind you of how good it feels to be productive.
  • A Great Routine! - Wake Up! After School! Bed Time!

    How To Organize Your Binder

    Blogger's Note : My binder was from Target. 

    Hey guys! Today I am going to show you how to organize your binder! :]

    What to do before you sort :
    Get dividers if needed


    My Binder


    1. ) First off, to organize your binder, take out all your papers so you can sort them out. 


    As you can see, I sorted all my papers into sections. For example, this is a school binder, so I divided the subjects : Language Arts, Math, Science, History, etc..
    2. ) Next, take out any papers you DON'T need and throw it away. 

    3. ) Now that all the excess stuff is out of your binder and you don't need it anymore, place all of your stuff back into your binder in order. ( Since my binder is for school, I put it in the order of my classes ) 

    Me putting my papers back in the binder.

    4. ) And now, it's organized! Final look :



    All clean and organized! :D Look at these tips below : 

    Remember those dividers I told you to get? Label them ( such as HISTORY, MISCELLANEOUS )
    -- Keep papers in your binder so it's more convient and you don't have to tear out your notebook! -- 
    Never keep your binder out of site.. Don't lose it!
    -- Keep a planner in your binder so you can write down your homework and not forget!
    Use a binder with circular rings - So helpful! 
    Clean your binder out once in a while before it overloads.

    Recipe Of The Week : Chocolate Chip Pancakes

    I'm usually the one who loves cooking and is always in the kitchen, yet I'm still really young. I love baking, since it doesn't include the stove, which I'm awfully afraid of getting burned. But, these pancakes makes an exception, since it's very simple and easy to make.










    Chocolate Chip Pancakes

    Ingredients:

    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (you can also use gluten free flour)
    2 tsp granulated sugar
    1 1/2 tsp baking powder
    3/4 tsp baking soda
    3/4 tsp salt
    1 1/4 cups buttermilk (regular milk works too)
    1/4 cup vegetable oil
    2 large eggs
    3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
    ( Note : It can also be a pancake mix from a box, and you can just add chocolate chips )

    Directions:

    Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add in buttermilk, oil, and eggs and then mix just until combined. Fold in chocolate chips.

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once griddle is warm, spray with cooking spray and pour batter using 1/4 cups. Once you see bubbles appear on the top surface of the pancake flip them. Cook for an additional minute or 2 on the other side. Remove from griddle and serve with butter and syrup. Or as I like my pancakes, with nutella and confectioner's sugar. Delicious!

    Idea : What I did was shape them into hearts with a cookie cutter and I gave them to my mom for breakfast on Mother's day. She loved them, and I also gave her some other assortments of food.

    Ask Me - What To Do When You're Called Ugly

    Today I am going to start a new column on my blog, and I am going to have you guys ask me questions and I'll answer them. You can ask me by commenting down below, or if it's personal, you can email me at megankerfuffle@gmail.com and if it's really personal, you can always do anonymous screen name. 

    Anyways, today I am going to answer :

    What should I do when I'm called ugly? The " popular " girls and the " cool " kids call me ugly constantly and I get offended really easily, what should I do about them calling me ugly? I'm sick of it. - Ugly 

    Dear Ugly, 

    First of all, after you're being called ugly, don't react. Don't cry or be sad in front of them, I mean, all bullies want is to get a reaction. That's what they like. If you're like, " Whatever.. " they'll most likely back off and make it seem not as fun to torture you. Sometimes when people say I'm so short, ( As in a bad way ) I kind of get sick of it and annoyed, but then, I say, " Well, thanks. " So.. My point is to - A. ) Don't React & B. ) Say " Thanks " or something like that. 

    If those suggestions do not work, one day. One day, you can stick up for yourself and say, " Well, what happened in your childhood? How did you get so ruined? Seriously. Calling someone ugly, fat, or anything negative? I suggest you look at yourself and HEAR what you're saying, unless you're deaf. Please excuse me as I return to what I am doing. " 

    If you're really shy and you just cannot stick up for yourself, look at yourself in the mirror. Are you ugly? Are you? No. You're beautiful. You're beautiful....... Don't let anyone tell you you have flaws, they just might be jealous and the ugly ones themselves.. 

    - Love, Megsterz
