    Homemade Beauty: DIY Chocolate Bronzer

    You Will Need: A Clean Empty Container Cocoa Powder Powdered Sugar Clean, dry lip brush (or something else small to mix with) Directions Add some cocoa powder to your empty container.  Next, add in some powdered sugar until you’ve reached your desired color.  Test some on the back of your hand to see how it looks, and then add more cocoa powder to make it darker, or add in some more powdered sugar to lighten it up. All done! Just think... the next time your man kisses your cheek, you will taste like chocolate! :D

    Governor's School!

    Well, you would never believe what I have been up to all Summer! I just got back from Governor's school! Which was an adventure in itself...  if you don't know what Governor's School is, it is a special academic program for 5 and 1/2 weeks, for "the best and the brightest" in the state of NC, and I was very honored that I received the invitation to attend! I went for English, so I had one class that discussed Fact vs. Fiction, and another that focused on Creative Writing. I also had an Area II class that focused on Philosophy and Politics, and an Area III class that focused on your beliefs and feelings. Basically, it was a very modern and informal type of school, 6 days a week, and whenever I wasn't in class they kept us extremely busy with performances and seminars!  So as usual, I apologize... I should have posted at some point, but I did not, and there isn't much we can do about it now, so I am very sorry! How about a little peek into wha...
