Okay, so turns out I'm going to use this as a nutrition/work out journal now. I'll also try to keep up with posty-posts and other really exciting things. So don't think it's only going to be the journal. Keep reading non-existent readers!
SO, DAY 1 of Healthy Lifestyle:
Here's what I ate.....
Breakfast: Special K, skim milk
Lunch: Turkey sandwich--whole wheat bread, light mayo, spinach, turkey, cheddar cheese; half a portion of goldfish
Supper: Bean with bacon soup, carrots with peanut butter
Snacks: portion of whole grain tortilla chips, salsa
Here was my workout....
-Biked 3 miles
-Walked briskly 20 minutes
-3 sets of 20 crunches with 7.5 lb weight
YAAAAAY. Okay, so I don't really have anything else to say for today. But be looking for my updates :)
LOVE YA,
EMMA

Ner ner ner ner ner ner ner.
Okay, so it's the third day of classes and I'm not completely sick of classes yet, but I am REAL bored and unmotivated.
I'm excited because I got a MAC for the new school year. I also got a new iPod touch. They are both amazing and I can't believe I was ever able to live without them. Shoutout to Apple. HAAAAAY.
Okay, seriously though, I am so lame. I don't even have anything to talk about. Today I was supposed to take a half hour nap but ended up waking up 4 hours later because I set my alarm for am instead of pm. Could my life get any better? haha Just kidding, but really.
I'm excited to be in my apartment. We made a GIANT collage on one of our blank walls in the apartment and it looks sweet. We also have these giant posters of cityscapes that we put up. It's a pretty edgy apartment...I wouldn't have it any other way. Maybe I'll put up some pictures of it. Or maybe not because that takes effort.
I'm wearing a 97 cent baseball tee. It reminds me of summer. I love summer and miss it.
This year will be good, I'm looking forward to my classes. Sorry that I am so ADD in these posts and that you non-existent readers can't keep up with my crazy brain. But anyways.....
POSTY POOOOOOooOoOoOoOoOOoooOooOoOooooOOOOOoOOOst!
Got you good, no posty post today. There's just nothing spectactular enough to give my blogger fans. Expect great things for the future though.
Peace and buhlessins',

No day but today...to fall down.
Okay, so first day of classes today. BOOOOOO. Just kidding, I've only had one class today. But guess what happened? I was walking on my way home from class and stepped off a curb and then my ankle gave out and I fell to the ground. Now my ankle is the size of a baseball...no big deal. Thanks first day, glad to be here.
Sooooo sorry blogger fans, I have not been keeping up with my commitment to this blog. Now I have my new computer, and I am DETERMINED to update on the reg. So keep checking up on me, because hopefully I can entertain with updated blogging. Probably not though hahahahaha
Anyways, I'm sad that summer's over. This was pretty much the best summer of my life. RENT 2010 was possibly the GREATEST experience of my life. I met so many great friends (including ANTHONY RAPP. Yeah, we partied). Performing again was really amazing, especially with so many fantastic people. I also turned 21 (woo, get crunk) and had a semi-terrible job haha. I guess it was good experience, but WHATEVA. So that's enough boring crap.
The much awaited.......POSTY-POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is an awesomely funny website called "Dear blank, please blank" and people send in things using the phrase "Dear (enter something here) Please (enter something here)". You'll just have to look at it to see how funny it is for yourself. Here's the link:
www.dearblankpleaseblank.com. Read until your heart's desire.
LOVE TO ALL,
Emily Jean

She's baaaaaaaaack
Okay, blog fans. Here's the deal. I have no excuse for not blogging for the past months, I just haven't done it. But I am back and better than ever! Maybe. You can be the judge.
Just wanted to let everyone know that life is just plain good right now. Don't you love it when that happens? When you can just sit back and feel great? I know I do.
I haven't posted since it became summer so...HAPPY SUMMER! I hope everyone is enjoying their summer months thus far. I know I have been. I've been filling my days with sunshine, hanging out with people that I love, laughing, bonfires, and bomb pops. There are so many good things about summer, what's one of your favorite things?
Also, I've been busy working (I'm a nanny for some kids this summer) and rehearsing for the production Rent! It's been great getting to know the cast and working with such talent. I love it! Yesterday we were at the Gay pride fest and just sang and walked around, it was great. Then we had an awesome pool party which was also great and definitely a summer staple.
Today, I went shopping, and hung out with friends. I love the weekends!
Sorry this post has been so ADD, but I just had to fill you in on my not-so exciting life.
POSTY POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOST:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-crgQGdpZR0
Love the lyrics, love this song, love ABBA. That is all.
Oh and I love you! :)

Hemnahemnahemnahmmmmm.
Lalalalala. I feel like today is such a weird day. It is TUESDAY. Tuesday is such an odd day in the first place. Like, it doesn't suck as much as Monday, but it's still not "almost the weekend" like Wednesday. It's just kind of there. Sorry Tuesday, but you are too neutral for my liking. We have to spice you up. Any suggestions? Tunage Tuesdays? Text message Tuesdays? Tap Dancing Tuesdays? Maybe I'll just change the theme every week. Every Tuesday, you will sit in suspense.
Today will be.... Thesaurus Tuesday! So, I'll pick a word and then suggest to you some other words (found in the Thesaurus) that will make you sound smarter and more eloquent. So the word of the day is... "AWESOME". So instead of sounding like a tweeny bopper, take some of these suggestions to describe your "awesome weekend" or your "awesome sandwich"....
astonishing, awe-inspiring,beautiful, breathtaking, grand, hairy*, magnificent, majestic, mind blowing, shocking, stunning, wondrous
*not really sure why "hairy" was found for a synonym of "awesome"...but that's pretty "hairy" if you ask me*
So enough of gaining vocabulary. Let's get back to the fun stuff. Oh wait...there is no fun stuff. What now? I've decided that every time I go out I want to tell a lie to someone I've just met haha. You may ask, "Why would you want to do that Emma?" Well children, it makes the night much more interesting. Faking a terrible British accent and lying about walking dogs at the Humane Society could make for a funny story the next day. Next time you go out, try it--it's more fun than you think!
NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW it's Posty-post time. Bowchicka wow wow! OWWWWW!
So, I did this new thing where I go to www.flickr.com (which is an awesome site of millions of pictures BTW) and then I click on "The Last 7 days" but then it gives you an option to choose any month and then you can choose any day. I chose my birthday (July 5th, 2009) and it showed me a random amount of pictures that were submitted that day. I decided to collage them and posty-post them here for your viewing pleasure.
Check out Flickr, you can always find a picture that makes you happy :)
PEACE,
Weezy (Gangsta for Emma)

Stranger Danger
Ohheyblog. Missed you for the past month.
Sorry about my 4 week hiatus. I have just been drawing a blank for what to write on this blog. The Oscar post took a lot out of me. It's rough.
So obviously, I still don't have anything to write about. Oh, Happy Easter! Today, the Easter Bunny visited my house, and left me an Easter notepad and a small chocolate marshmallow treat...while he left my brother a 3-lb Reese's egg and other assorted candies. How old am I? Obviously not old enough to not receive a themed notepad for every holiday.
Lately, I've been feeling quite positive about life. How can you not? The weather is becoming beautiful, my friends are awesome, and there's just so many things to be appreciative for.
So, I'm back with a strong POSTY-POST for the day. This is a video which is the literal version of the music video to "Total Eclipse of the Heart". The video is already weird enough alone, but with the literal description on top of it, it is a winner. Ch-ch-ch-check it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj-x9ygQEGA
Over-surprised guy....weirded out,
Emma

Oscar Who?
FIRST, I would like to apologize for the hiatus in post updates...I'm sure you've all been dying for a new post. My immune system decided to suck for a while, but I'm becoming well enough to satisfy all of your blog needs!
SECOND, I haven't written on here in days, so brace yourself...this post is going to be lengthy.
THIRD, since you all enjoyed the celeb fashion critiques SO MUCH, I would like to make up for my brief hiatus with a SPECIAL.....
OSCARS RED CARPET FASHIONS POST!!!!!!! Get excited...because HERE WE GO!!!!! (You can click on the pictures to make them bigger!)
Let's start off with the MEN of the Red Carpet.
(Counter Clockwise, then to the middle)
Ahh, George Clooney. The definition of "Silver Fox". Everyone was raving about his long hair...but I'm not diggin' it. I like the rugged, scruffy, short haired look for him. But regardless, he was still working it.
Next, we have the youngins--Taylor Lautner and Zac Efron. I don't even know what to say, because these two always look good. I'm glad that Zac is going a little out of the box with the skinny black tie, versus the bow tie. HOTTIES, that's all.
WOOOOOO, Gerard Butler is becoming the new George Clooney. He is HOT. He's looking quite dapper in his tux, while still having the ruggedness with the beard. Work it G-But.
Last but not least, the award for "Emma's Favorite Men's Look" goes to......
ROBERT DOWNEY JUNIOR. Congrats Rob, this is an honor. I'm loving the oversized, BLUE bowtie, awesome glasses, and black and white sneaks. Thanks for stepping outside of the cookie cutter and doing your own thaaaaang!
Next, we move on to Ladies in Metallic. And the nominees are:
Miley Slutrus...Okay, I don't like her. And this dress makes me like her less. I know that the whole "corset" look is in..but I'm not a fan of it on Miles.
Demi Moore--It's okay, and I like the hair.
Elizabeth Banks--Funny gone fashionista. I'm liking the silver dress, and she is twerkin' it. Mixed with the smokey eye, she is a vision in grey tones.
Sarah Jessica Parker--Although some may not like it, I kind of LOVE it. In this post she kind of looks like Oscar herself, but I really like it. The color looks great and I love how the embellishment goes on to the back. SPOT ON.
Sandra Bullock--Just want to start this off by saying I LOVE HER. I'm so glad she won Best Actress...but today she won't be winning best in Metallic. The dress is okay, but so not Best Actress worthy. The embroidery on the top is a little old fashioned and I think she could of worked a brighter color. Maybe next year she'll feel a little bolder, now that she's got her own Oscar :)
Kathryn Bigelow--Don't love it...a little puckery and boring. For the first female Best Director, AND Best Picture, she could have done better.
AND THE WINNER IS.....CAMERON DIAZ! I love this classic shape, and there is just enough embellishment for her to show her personality. Plus I love her hair.
J-Lo versus Amanda Seyfried...
The winner IS...AMANDA. Okay, I know that everyone though Jen looked "Fabulous" and "Stunning" but I think that "She looked like a bolt of fabric was tacked to her left hip". The looks were similar, but I definitely liked Amanda's better.
Next, the classic, "Little Black Dress".
Let's start with Faith Hill...first, WHY was she there? Something to do with "The Blindside", but I wasn't catching on. Even though she didn't belong, she decided to wear terribly ugly spider web tights to match her terribly ugly spider web embellishment on her dress. I'm over it Faithy.
Next, Kristen Stewart. Okay, we're getting closer K-Stew...but if you'd stop biting your lip and start smiling and working your dress, we may be better convinced. I like the shape of the dress, it's interesting...but I wish someone else was wearing it.
But the one who takes the award for this category is...Carey Mulligan! I usually don't like the "Mullet" hem, as I like to refer to it, but on Carey and in this particular dress, it looks GREAT! The shoes, the hair, the earrings, and of course the DRESS make anyone who wore black regret their choice.
Next is the coveted...Worst Dressed Female. And here are the nominees...
Starting with Charlize Theron. Yikes, girl. It looks like someone is cupping your ladies. That is NOT a good look. I understand trying to be bold...but this is not good.
Next, we have Zoe Saldana. I appreciate the color, but this is just too much. Plus this picture doesn't show the GIANT SLIT in the front which adds to the horrendousness. Try again next year.
It was a close call, but second to worst would be Mo apostrophe Nique. Did one of your charm school girls dress you? This looks straight from K-Mart, girl. The fake flower, the un-figure flattering dress...it just doesn't add up. But congrats on the Oscar...that will make you look better, right?
But the worst dressed is...DIANE KRUGER! Congrats on looking like someone vomited up every fabric and texture in beige onto your dress! Yikes is all I have to say.
Now the best award of the blog is Best Dressed Female.
First, let's start with the classic Meryl Streep. She was going a little different with the long sleeves and classy silhouette. It's very age appropriate, but still fashion forward. She looked great!
Next, we have Vera Farmiga. Okay, it may look a little crazy, but I LOVE THIS. The volume and color is so bold, but not too busy. LOVE.
It was a very close call, but next is Queen Latifah. Holy crap, if I could wear any dress, I would want this one. The color is on, the shape is on, the embellishments, the hair...only one thing Queen...lose the Miley Cyrus peace sign. That dress is 10x classier than that.
And the Winner IS Rachel McAdams. I just love it. Everything is good about this whole look.
So, if you haven't fallen asleep on your computer yet, then thank you for reading and let me know what YOUR opinions of the looks from the Oscars were! Obviously, this is a NP^2 kind of day since it's already so long. So I'm going to stop typing now, and let you get back to your life haha.
With all your Fashion Emergencies,
Emma
