The Bold and Beauty: Unatural Hair Color
I recently started to take an interest in unatural hair color like purple, orange, blue, red, etc. I know it's not anything new, but watching how hairstylist across the world have incorporated those type of colors into everyday hairstyles is pretty cool! I myself have tried the orange last year for peek-a-boo highlight or streaks at the underneath of my hair and now this year I'm ready to try 2 new colors (don't know which ones yet). I know those kinds of colors use to make people believe that you were one of those people who were 'Out There' or weird so to speak but now they become the norm even for people who are long past being a teenager. Some work places, (depending on where you work) are starting not to mind it either which I think is great because I believe regardless of length, texture, color or style hair doesn't make a person. With that, I'm going to choose a new color and post it when I'm done.

Basic Collge School Supplies
I know what is called 'Basic School Supplies' varies from
person to person as well as whether or not you're in let's say high school or
college. So what I'm going to list is what I call basic school supplies and
since I'm in college that's what they'll be based on. So here is my list of
basic school supplies for college.
Pencil/Pens- Now I
know this one is an easy one, but in my personal experience I've seen people
show up to class without them and say "I didn't know what I would need for
class, so I didn't bring anything." this still until this day puzzles me about
why wouldn't you need them. I mean in college you probably take more notes in
class than you ever day even with computers being a present staple in schools.
Which is why I feel pens/pencils are basic along with my next basic supply:
notebook paper
Person Favorite: Bic/Ticonderoga
Notebook Paper- I
feel the perfect way to find out what you're going to need for class (beside
e-mailing the instructor or asking your friends) is to go to class and write
down whatever the teacher tells you to in your notebook or on loose leaf paper
or getting a copy of the class syllabus. Which is why I find note paper a basic
supply.
Person Favorite: Any
Highlighters: This I
find helps when you have notes, handouts and textbooks. I also recommend
getting a set with different colors in it as well, not just because the colors are
pretty or to give your notebook doodle some color but so you can find things
like important topics, vocabulary words and so on quick and easy.
Personal Favorite: Bic
2 Pocket Folders: I've seen some people take their papers
and just shove them in their bag as walking down the hallway and as they're
walking, other papers are flying out of their bag while their putting new paper
IN their bag. While their doing this, 'I'm think haven't you been to school for
the past 12 year enough to know you need not only a something to carry your
books and papers in but also, something to keep them organize and secure?' so I
just look and shake my head. But if you want something simple to hold paper and
stay organize in my opinion I feel folders are quick, cheap, and simple and
come in a variety of colors.
Personal Favorite: Five Stars
Mini Pencil Sharpener- If you choose to carry some pencils,
I think it's necessary because classrooms don't have pencil sharpeners like
they would in kindergarten or grade school.
Personal Favorite: Any
UBS Key/ Flash drive: Since computers are now a staple in
schools of almost all grade levels, I feel it's important to have one of these
to store you files such as an essay, rough draft and topic ideas.
Personal Favorite: SanDisk
Planner- It's easy to forget what assignments were due and
where they were due and when they were due. The common answer I hear to this
is: "Oh I'll just store it in my phone..." which is all fine and
dandy but things happen and life happens. I hear some of the people that say that
come the following week and say things like: "My phone got stolen so I
didn't get to see what the homework was." or "I was at a pool party
and someone pushed me into the pool and my phone got wet and now it doesn't
work so I couldn't do my homework." which is why it's important to have a backup
plan-ner.
Personal Favorite: School brand or Lilly Pulitzer
Stapler- I think this is important because again, the
classroom/teacher won't always have one for you to borrow like they would in
grade school or even high school in this case.
Personal Favorite: Any
Hand-Sanitizer-I as the seasons change you'll start to hear
more people speak of colds and so forth which mean more germs and more chances
for them to spread. Yuck!
Personal Favorite: Purell
White-Out- If you use pen you might make some mistakes (if
you're like me you A LOT of mistakes) both writing and printing papers. This
will come in handy.
Personal Favorite: Bic
So there you have it my basic school supplies for college.
If I have nothing else I try to make sure I at least have these in my bag and
lots of them.

Plans After Summer
August is here and it's wrapping up the last bit of summer and autumn is almost here again (time flies by so fast!). Some people are going back to school (like myself), others are looking forward to Halloween, other people cooler weather (again like myself) and the list goes on. If anyone cares to share, what are some of your plans for autumn?
