`Ballet Shoes` by Noel Streatfeild

 Hey guys :)

 Believe it or not, I`m listening to Mozart now! I can`t believe it either.. I mean, I like his music, it`s relaxing and everything, but I never really sat down to listen it. 

 Anyway, I went to local bookstore the other day, and I got new book- `Ballet Shoes` by Noel Streatfeild. It`s soooooo good! There`s also a movie remake of the book, Emma Watson has the leading role. 

 The book is about three British girls (Pauline, Petrova and Posy Fossil) who r adopted as babies. They start going to `Children`s Academy of Dancing And Stage Training`. They r very talented, and at the end Pauline becomes very popular actress and Posy a brilliant ballerina. Petrova however becomes a pilot :p What makes this story very cool is that it`s all happening in time between 1940 and 1945 (I think, but I`m not sure).

 So this book inspired me to do post about my fav books, that I think u`ll like :)

You can guess that `Ballet Shoes` is one of them :) Next it`s (of course!) `Harry Potter` book series. I don`t have to tell u what it`s that abour, do I? :) I also very recently got `The Perks Of Being A Wallflower` book. It was quite nice.. There is a lot of mind battle going on in it, so I don`t recommend it for younger teens.

 But my absolutely favorites r Cathy Cassidy`s books! They r written especially for teenagers, and r the most interesting books i`ve ever read! Every book is about different teenage girl, and about her life and problems. There`s always a guy twisted somewhere inside the book ;) I got a loads of these books, here, in my room. Some of them r: Cherry Crush, Indigo Blue, Scarlett, Angel Cake, Love Peace And Chocolate, Shine On Daizy Star, Daizy Star And The Pink Guitar, ...

What r your fav books?? I`m really curious :)

Bye, bye

BACK TO SCHOOL SUPPLIES HAUL!!!!!

 Hello my lovelies :)
 I was very busy buying all that stuff for school. It took me couple days to get all things I need to, and I was waiting for my notebooks (my aunt bought them for me when she went to Croatia on summer holiday). It was veeeery fun!! I love doing back-to-school-shopping; it`s something I always loved, u go and buy new notebooks and penciles and every other year a backpack...
 I probably told u this about million times ( hahaha ), but I`m starting high school this year. In due to this, I got all new stuff I need for school: backpack, pencilcase, ...

 Here r things I bought, and there is also a description about hoe I use it :)

1. A Backpack

Naturally, this is the first thing I`m showing to u. I got it from Springfield. I firstly wanted to get a cambridge satchel, but then I went to the mall and saw this , so I got to get it. 

NOTE: It is really important to get useful backpack/satchel/bag for school. U need it for carrying books and notebooks and folders (don`t say u don`t need it because u have lockers, u`ll still have to bring home homework :p ); if u buy it just because it is pretty, it can happen that your things won`t fit in. 

2. A Pencilcase (pencil box)

Mine is from `Nici` i think. I`m not sure what the store is called... Oh never mind :)

It costed around 15 dollars, so it was very cheap, but still it looks very cute! The light pink parts r made of soft fabrics, the same one stuffed animals r made of. 

I don`t have a `note` on pencil cases, u can`t get the wrong one :)

3. Eraser 

I always get the `Staedtler` ones. I think they r the best.. I know u r wondering why I haven`t buy those cute ones, in cupcake-like shapes, but to be honest I did. But the ones I have won`t erase anything! They just make it worse. So I got the ordinary ones.

NOTE: Erasers r for erasing, not for looking how cute they r! U need it when u write something wrong, u don`t want to ask others to borrow u theirs, it`s annoying. 

4. Notebooks

`That`s a lot of notebooks` u think right now, am I right? I know that most kids don`t use these, they write on paper and then put it in folder which they keep in their lockers. Well I`m not one of them :p 

I like to have one notebook for one subject, and to have it with me when I have that class. It is really good when u need to repeat something before class, and they r also very light to carry in your backpack!

Subject I have: English, math, science (biology, chemistry and physics), social studies, history and German. 

I used two big ones for English and math, `cause I have to write a lot there!

NOTE: I don`t know about u, but my handwriting is much prettier when I write in pretty notebook. I feel like I have to make it look as pretty as notebook, I don`t want to ruin it! So if u have problem with your handwriting, this may help.

Also, I buy notebooks each one in different color, so i can`t accidentally take the wrong one :)

These r ones for English and math :)

These r ones my aunt got me :)

3. Pencils/ Electronic pencils

I always get sliding/electronic pencils. U don`t need to sharpen it, u just click and u can keep on with writing!

NOTE: I really recommend these for sloppy ones (if there r some here). When u use ordinary pencil u have to use sharpener, and sometimes u r too lazy, so u just keep writing with a dull pencil.. it does not look good, trust me!

4. Folder

I got only one folder this year. It`s just because I don`t need more than one. I put all homework assignments and papers in one, and attach little paper to it (it`s at number 5, look down below) and write for which class it is. 

NOTE: This is perfect for those who has a lot after-school activities, club meetings or forgetful ones. U cant forget to bring file if u have only one, can u? 

5. Little sticky notes

I already told u when I use these notes, but that`s not the full use of them! I use them when I need to mark page in book or notebook, like, when I have to study it little more

NOTE: Have u ever bent corners of pages from some book because u wanted to find them easily? Well these sticky notes r in the same use (u just don`t need to destroy anything) 

6. Big sticky notes

Use them when u have to write down something. Would it be the quote u just heard, of something important u have to know for exams, it doesnt matter! 

NOTE: There is also a fun use of them: u can write something on it and then attach it to another student! U can write `kick me in ass` or `kiss me` or something like that.. Just don`t make it rude, nobody likes that.

7. Rulers

Do I have to explain u how and for what I use them? ;)

8. Colorful pens

My motto: `everything is easier when in colors`. So when I take notes, I usualy write important things in colors, and I use pens for that. This time I bought red, purple, blue and black. 

Also, I use the same motto when I study something from book, I just take neon highlight. I yellow, orange, pink and green. And I love them!!

I really hope I helped u :) I will put some links of videos that r about school supplies tomorrow. 

TTYL,

BACK TO SCHOOL: HOW TO BE COOL!!

BE AWESOME!

 Hola!!
 Hahaha, i`m just in good mood to say `hola` it`s funny.
Anyway, as u know, I`m starting high school in September. And I really can`t wait (i hope that didn`t sound weird hahaha). All friends I have r pretty nervous, but most of them have their best friends going to the same high school. And as u know when u have your BFF by your side, u can do anything! Well, my best friend won`t go to the same school as I. She moved to another part of city :( And basically, both two of us won`t have BFF by her side. We will have to meet new friends, which isn`t hard for me, but she is really shy and.. So we met last weekend and researched Google `till we found most important advices that may help us. It`s about how to be cool, how to get new friends.. It can help u even if u r not starting new school year, and u just want to be more popular with your classmates.
So, here r 10 tips, we think r the most important:

1. BE YOU. Be true to yourself. Don`t pretend to be someone else, if you`re not. You won`t get anywhere, you`ll just complicate your life!

BE YOU

2. DON`T BE AFRAID TO BE DIFFERENT. Don`t forget that every girl or boy r different from others. Things that you maybe do, and others don`t makes you identical! So don`t EVER change yourself!

BE UNIQUE

3. BE FRIENDLY. It would be much easier to be who you r when you have friends behind your backs. If there is someone new, came and greet him! I bet he doesnt bite! :))

BE FRIENDLY

4. TRUST YOUR FRIENDS. If you have friends that you know, like, forever you should trust them! Or if you have a BFF (best friend forever) you can tell her a secret, or do something you don`t want anyone to find out, she/he will save the secret. Also, important is to be trustworthy, `cause u need your friends believing u, that way u become closer.

TRUST

5. DRESS CODE. Just wear what you r comfortable in! `Cause if you feel good, you`ll see the difference in your walk and your pose!

CLOTHES

6. BE GOOD. People love when someone is helping them. If someone in school drop the books, come and help him/her! And also, you will make another friend that way!

BE GOOD

7. BE CONFIDENT. You will look better if you r confident. If someone is bullying you, stand up to them! They r people, just like you, why would they think they r better than you?? Also, confident girls look prettier. They r happy with how they look, and honestly, boys love those girls! Same is for boys. It`s important not to start acting like u r the queen/king of the world, no one like those people.

BE CONFIDENT

8. BE INDEPENDENT. Don`t do stuff just because your friend like that. Do something on your own.

BE INDEPENDENT

9. SMILE. You will look much easier to talk if you r smiling! Also, when others look at you, they should smile too!!

SMILE

10. TAKE CARE OF YOUR HYGIENE. If you smell good and if you take care of yourself, others will love to be with you.

HYGIENE

What do you think?? R these real tips for being cool?? Lets hope :)

CELEBRITY OF THE WEEK: ZENDAYA COLEMAN!

 Hey again :)
 U know I wasn`t able to post yesterday, so `im posting celebrity-of-the-week-post now :) And it`s Zendaya! Now I know I have been writing about Disney stars only, but lets face it, they r rising to the stars! They r doing so many things at the same time, so I literally have to them here hahaha.

 Now, lets talk about Zendaya.
 She was born on September the 1st 1996. in Oakland, California, as Zendaya Meree Stoermer Coleman. In 2009 she auditioned for Disney show `Shake It Up` and she got the role of Rocky Blue. It is 3rd season of SIU now and I think they r planning to do the 4th too :)
 Beside `Shake It Up`, Zendaya acted in `ANT Farm`, `Good Luck Charlie` and `Frenemies`.

Also she was in 16th season of popular American TV show `Dancing With The Stars` and she has won second place.

In 2011 Zendaya released her first song `Swag It Out` and a duet with her co star Bella Thorne, called `Watch me` (it reached more than 81 million views!). Later, Bella and Zendaya recorded couple more songs together: `Fashion Is My Kryptonite`, `This Is My Dance Floor` and `Contaghious Love`. She also recorded two official dance videos- first in December 2012 and second in February 2013.

 Her single `Replay` will be on her new album which is coming out in September this year.

 She wrote a book for teens called `Between U And Me: How To Rock Your Tween Years With Style And Confidence` and it is coming out soon.

So, u see now that Zendaya REALLY deserved her place in this weeks celebrity-of-the-week-blog? I see :)
Lots of love,
