So funny story haha.......

So I basically hate blogger now because of this. Since I've already built up a base here, however, it's hard to pick up and move to a new hosting website. I guess I don't know much about blogger, and I haven't really taken the time to look into the whole struggle so I'm not entirely sure if there's a way to do this without paying. Oh! Yes! I didn't even tell you the story yet. Essentially, I filled up my picasa memory (picasa is the picture hosting site, yada yada yada) and now I can't post any pictures without either (to my knowledge):

A. Paying for more storage

or

B. Deleting old photos from picasa, which, yes, would delete them from my blog

Since the latter just doesn't resonate well with me, because I believe I have some really good old stuff in the archives, right now it appears my only option is A. Does anyone know a free fix to this?? If not that's fine, I think its only 5 or so dollars and I'll hopefully purchase the storage and be back up and running in no time (don't worry, I have plenty outfits-of-the day waiting to be uploaded) but it would be nice not to have to spend any money, regardless of how cheap it is. So if you know another way let me know, and if there is no other way then I'll try and be back up and blogging by spring break, which is next week. Thanks for putting up with this shenanigans. I'm so glad I haven't lost any followers through all this. And spring is coming too, and I always get more creative in the warmer months. Be prepared for a return of the Charlie at any moment!
Bye all
Peace, love, and basketball (as my hilarious best friend says jokingly every time we part)

Stupid Photos taken on my iPod touch

Well I haven't blogged in over a month, partially due to business with finals and partially due to theatre, but mostly due to sheer laziness. I apologize for that. Well here I am again, and completely lacking in the "stuff to talk about" section. So to get back into blogging I'm going to begin a new column, by the name of "Stupid photos taken on my iPod touch" (because I received a touch for Christmas and have taken many stupid photos with it). This column will feature any stupid photos I have taken with my iPod, and will be used when I have absolutely nothing else to discuss. So here it is, the first ever feature:

And I got a tumblr y'aaalll!!! Come check me out: http://kasumisplanet.tumblr.com/ 

Don't forget to follow too!

Adios muchachos.

The Weather Outside is Frightful

There's something about winter that always manages to break my creative shield and flip on the "fashion laziness" switch at the center of my brain. Until I have a collection of gem sweaters that measures up next to Leslie Hall's, I just don't know if I'll be able to post outfits on a regular basis (I suppose this year AP World History had a big hand in flipping that switch too). Maybe Christmas will stock me up again and keep me inspired! Until then, though, I'll keep you entertained with fun things about my actual life outside of fashion (except my life is BORING. BLAAAAH). Well if you haven't gathered it from the title, it's getting cold up here. Last winter didn't end til, oh, May? Yep. Welcome to the Land of 10,000 Lakes, my friends, where the lakes are frozen over more often than not. I got up reeeeaaaally early this morning too, because I'm a nerd and wanted to see the partial lunar eclipse (once again, just partial because I live in the great American ice cap). Anywho, now I'm awake, and, in my humble opinion, long overdue for a blog post. My friends and I made the courageous (and perhaps controversial) decision to actually make an effort to ENJOY the snow this year, opposed to sitting inside complaining about it as with year's past. Here's a photoshoot from our first night in Winter Wonderland! Luckily, Maddie has this awesome waterproof digital camera. Raymond and Aleah walked all the way to my house while the snow was still coming down, and since they're both not an inch over 5 feet, I made the decision that they looked like Christmas elves when they walked up to my door :D

Also, if you're familiar with B-movie horror (I consider myself an expert on the subject at this point), I'm sure you'd be familiar with the movie Frozen. Seeing as it was pretty frozen up in this joint as well, we decided to remake the movie! Unfortunately we didn't have access to a chairlift, but we made do



On another note, I'm entering the Fashion Turd's birthday giveaway, so here's my link to the post: Birthday Giveaway Post

Also, I got PLANT #2 in the mail yesterday and I absolutely devoured it! Thanks Isabel!

Out.

They should really send me to Oddball Academy

AC/DC t-shirt: gift from my dad, Pants: Delia's, Bandana: vintage, Knockoff Keds: Target

One of the reasons I wore this outfit was because I thought it would provide a funny contrast, I was supposed to read a poem I wrote aloud to my English class this morning and this particular poem is all sweet and fluffy. Perfect juxtaposition to my inner punk. But, as it happened, I left my backpack in my advisory class the hour before English. DON'T EVEN ASK ME HOW. But I did. My advisor also happens to be one of the school social workers, meaning that when she's not teaching our class she's out patrolling the hallways. So of course the door to her classroom was locked and I ended up having to track my backpack down instead of reading my poem. I'm reading it tomorrow but still.....UGH. Not a good way to begin the school day.



Anywho, back to the outfit. My dad brought me the shirt from an AC/DC concert he went to a few years back. I'm not as big a fan as he is, but their songs totally get me pumped and rocking. Classic rock never dies, in my book. These are probably the coolest and most comfortable pants I own, when I saw them in the Delia's catalog I ordered them right away. In a way, they're relics from my "scene kid" days, but along with a lot of those clothes I still find them awesome today (though thankfully I've become way more original in my choice of attire).

So for French, we're currently at work on an awesome project that involves creating a fashion tv show of some sort. My teacher has a dress-up box in her classroom (I know right?!), and today she brought in a bag of whacky clothes to add to it, so of course instead of writing out the script like we were supposed to, my group had a photoshoot in the costumes......

Featuring Molly and Dan, in all their glory

Also I really really really REALLY wanted to steal that floral blazer and fruit sweater

But I love my French class. So I didn't.



Tomorrow is 11/11/11, and I still have no idea what to wish for.

In between the vomiting.....

No, I'm not cutting class to sneak down to the computer lab and update my blog. I am, however, home sick. That part I don't mind so much, it's nice to have a chance to laze around on the couch once in awhile. The part that really gets me was that the day I had to come down with a fever, the only day of the year thus far, was FIFTIES DAY at school. I had on my cutest A-line summer dress, a belt as wide as the Golden Gate bridge, my hair curled to no end, and was just about to slick on my cherry-red lipstick when wouldn't you know? I collapse with a migraine and start vomiting all over the place. I had to reassure my mom that "no, I was not drinking last night," brush out my curls (the saddest part), and hop in the bathtub. Oh, and miss the 8:00 bell of course. But that was a given ;) Anyway, to cure my boredom and please the general public, I'm here to blog. And post a stupid picture that cracks me up every time I see it.



Oh yeah, and here's a nice fashion quote straight from my personal life: "CHARLIEEEE are you wearing a tube top around your waist again?!"

That will be all.
