August Favourites & Blogust Review

Hey there guys! 

Sorry I haven't been here in FOREVER! Seventeen days to be exact... 

I've been soooo busy since the end of August. I finished up my last couple days of August catching up with some old friends where I used to live and it was great. Then school started the very next day I got back. School is school. It's something alright. Once the first weekend rolled around I went straight to my other friends cabin and spent the entire weekend there. (With no wifi might I add) Then I had another full week of school. So this weekend was the very first weekend in a long time where I could just relax IN MY OWN HOUSE. 

Although I was busy, those were not good enough excuses for me not to finish Blogust and post my August favourites in August. 

Speaking of Blogust, I'm actually so proud of it. I basically made it to the end of August blogging pretty much every day. That's crazy!! Although some posts are questionable, I'm going to looove looking back and laughing at them. What did YOU think? 

Anyways here are my very late monthly favourites for August!!

Favourite food: Pepperoni Pizza

Favourite TV show: Degrassi

Favourite Movie: The Perfect Man

Favourite Youtube Video: HOW TO TWERK! (Miranda Sings)

Favourite Youtube Cover: My Love is Like a Star By Demi Lovato covered by Connie Talbot. (She actually did many Demi Covers throughout August and it was so hard to pick just one) 

Favourite Youtuber: Miranda Sings, I know she was my favourite in months past but I just love her so much that she's my favourite in two months, okay?

Favourite Song: In the Shadows Tonight by Megan&Liz

Favourite Hairstyle: My best friend curled my hair super cutely and I loved it. Here is just a casual selfie of me and my hair. 

Favourite quote: I found this random picture on twitter one day but I find it totally relates to me. Although. Have no clue who it's by. 

Favourite app: I actually have to faves for the month of August. Corella's favourite app was the Pic Collage app which is how all the Blogust pictures were made. The regular me's favourite would have to be Instagram. I love looking through all my past photos.

Hopefully you guys enjoyed my whole Blogust month and my monthly favourites! I'll be sure to keep them coming as long as you guys want them!! Hah

If there is anything else you guys would like to see, I'd love to here your ideas and opinions! 

I also have very cool things planned for the future and I'm excited! Be sure to keep checking back! 

Thanks for reading!

A Day in the Life of Me

Hey there! What did you do today? 

Today when I was trying to come up with something to write about, I felt like I was running out of inspiration. So I was going through the events of my day and then I thought, "Hey, Why don't I just blog about what I did today?" Hence what I'm doing right now, haha.

My day began at 8:04am when I woke up to my barking dog alarm as I lay on the tent floor. The barking dogs never fail to wake me up. If you were wondering why I was in a tent refer to my last blog post. I had an appointment at 9am to go change around my school schedule. Running on about five hours asleep I got ready to go to school, I even brushed my teeth. Wow, I'm a giver.

Once I arrived at the school, I quickly remembered the terrible air conditioning that my school has. Like I don't think it should even be considered air conditioning. The temperature outside of the school is the same inside of the school and it feels like +30'C. I think we have a problem. As I start talking to the teacher who is changing the time table around, she informs me that the computer system is down. So my schedule would not me ale to be changed at this time. I'm already loving the  brand new school year.

It's probably like 9:07am now and I make my way back to my friend's tent party. I complained for a while but then we had some really good cinnamon buns with strawberries and chocolate milk. That breakfast made my whole day better. Then I went back home and chilled for a while. The my school called and figured out my schedule via telephone so I wouldn't have to go back there. Woot woot. They are great people, minus the fact that I still don't know which classes I have. I have been told that it all works out now. 

Then at 1pm, I went to the orthodontist to go get my bottom braces. I'm glad I finally got them on. I've only had my top since mid-November. No big deal. The bottom braces hurt way more than the top ever did. Like its not an "I'm dying" pain but it's more like "it's incredibly uncomfortable to eat" pain. Hopefully I can eat normally soon because I like food. 

Adds this next part in 5 minutes later. Also, these bottom braces don't really look like your regular braces. They are at like the very bottom of my teeth and it is thicker in some area. I feel like spider man attacked my bottom teeth.

After that, I just chilled at home some more. I did a quick little shopping trip with my mother to get my friends birthday gift I'm seeing tomorrow. I did some packing as well for my mini road trip to go see this friend. I plan on doing tomorrows blog about my trip and how excited I am. I'll leave some surprises for tomorrow. 

And now I'm in the present moment, I really liked doing this kind of blog. If felt cool reflecting back on my day. I think I'm going to do more of these in the future. What do you think?

27 Reasons Why I Don't Enjoy Tents

Hey there! Have you been tenting lately? Hopefully your experience went better than mine!

On the 27th if August, two of my good friends and I thought it would be a wonderful idea to go sleep in a tent for the night. It's really not a good idea if it was 33'C throughout the day, the night will be very warm as well. I only ended up getting about five hours of sleep which means I was up for a very long time. While I was up I made a list of why I really don't enjoy tents in general..

27th day of Blogust, 27 Reasons. See what I did there? Haha. I think I'm funny at least.

I'd love to hear about any of your tenting experiences! 

Also if you have and advice, suggestions or anything else to help improve the Corella Blog, I'd be soo happy to hear about your ideas!

Thanks for reading!

Really Funny Prank Call

Hey there!  Have you ever prank called anyone? Or have you ever been on the receiving end of it? Either way as long as its light hearted and fun, I believe prank calls are always a good time.

Last night, I was quite bored. I had my phone and my iPad right next to me. My iPad gave me the brilliant idea to prank call some of my friends. This is basically how I spent my entire night.

I would begin the call by asking "Is Mr. or Mrs. Wall home?" 

Then my friends would respond with something along the lines of "no."

Then I would change the wording around a couple more times such as, "Are there any wall residents home?"

By this time my friends just think I'm stupid and they stopped actually listening to what I am saying.

Then I would finally ask, "is there any walls in your home?"

Then most of the time the will say there are no walls here.

I would then start laughing and ask how there ceiling is still up?

I has two friends out of seven fall for it. I'm pretty sure I thought it was way funnier than they did. I had a great time.

Miley's New Song: Wrecking Ball

Hey there! Have you heard Miley's new song yet? It's probably my favourite yet!

Miley Cyrus has been working on her new album Bangerz for quite some time now. The album will be released on October 8th, 2013. Needless to say, I AM QUITE EXCITED. So far, we have only heard two songs off the album. The first one being We Can't Stop. It has basically been my go to jam all summer. The second song which just so happens to be the newest song to be released is Wrecking Ball. This song is defiantly my favourite out of the two.

Whoops, I took this picture off of google. Please don't hate me.

The song began with this cute piano part which I wasn't expecting since her last single, We Can't Stop, was more pop like. But I was really intrigued by the piano being played. When she started singing I was amazed. I loved this softer side of Miley in the verse. I felt the meaning behind what she was saying rather then just feeling the need to dance. (Which isn't necessarily a bad thing) 

The there was the chorus. The verse perfectly transitioned into the chorus. The chorus had power behind it and I loved it. Like I was in visioning the wrecking ball breaking down the walls as she sang. 

All I could think about throughout the song was that THIS was the Miley I knew and loved. In the past Miley has been quite successful with her more meaningful songs like The Climb. Not that I didn't like being able to jam out to We Can't Stop but it just wasn't the Miley that I loved. Hah, I wonder if that even made sense to any of y'all. 

I was very impressed by this new song and I can't wait to hear the rest of the album! I also want to finally figure out what Bangerz actually means! 

What do YOU think of Wrecking Ball?

New Aritzia Leggings!

Hey there! Have you been to Aritzia? I love EVERYTHING there! Especially the leggings..

Since I have been doing a TON of back to school shopping, I knew I had to get more leggings. Like they are basically a necessity. I came into Aritzia and got my first pair for $22.00 and then came back a week later to buy two more pairs. Each were $22.00 as well. I was expecting the price to be much higher hence why I bought three pairs - hehe. Overall, I am super happy with my purchases since they are quality leggings and cheap too! 

Hah I like to keep things interesting and flip the directions of pictures. Perfection is boring.

What do YOU think of Aritzia leggings?

Gold Glittery Nails

Hey there! What do your nails look like? Keep reading to find out what mine are!

Before you look at the photo, I would like to point out that I suck at painting my nails. This is some of my best work!

Like my pajama pants background? 

The brand of nail polish I used was OPI, as you can see the bottle I used below.

My question for you is, how good are you at painting your own nails? I for one am terrible but believe it or not, I am improving! Hopefully I'm not the only one who struggles with this! Haha
