Positive Playlist

HALLO!!! So I realize that this post is a bit later than I intended...okay a lot later...I'm sorry!...but here it is!! So, a quick update on resolutions: I DEBATED AGAIN GUYS!!! It didn't go as well this time, since I didn't exactly reach the time limit...but I did have extremely short notice (like two minutes worth haha) so I think I did okay under the circumstances. But yeah, that was cool. Anyways. For my positive playlist! Here are some songs I have put into it: 1) Drag Me Down - One Direction: This one is just a really good pump up song, and it has some good messages. YES. NOBODY CAN DRAG ME DOWN!!!! :D 2) Never Enough - One Direction: This one is just a really upbeat song, that's really fun. 3) Feelin' It - Scotty McCreery: most of the songs on my positive playlist are pumps up songs, as I'm sure you can tell :) this is another fun song.  4) Show You - Shawn Mendes: This is just a really inspirational song I think, about doing you no matter

School Supplies Haul/School Essentials!

Image
HEYY!! So in light of school starting super soon, I thought I'd do a school supplies haul. Who else is pumped for school? CAUSE I AM!! I always am at this part of the summer haha. I'm ready to get back into it, and start seeing everyone more often. SO without further ado, LET'S GET ON WITH THIS POST!!!! ALRIGHTY! So the first item on my list is obviously...binders. That is an essential for every class. I have used the same binders for a few years now, and they're just the clear plastic cover ones, all different colours. I have blue, black, pink, orange, red, purple and white ones. And what's really exciting to me is that I HAVE MATCHING NOTEBOOKS!!!! (Well...for most of them.) THEY ARE THE SAME COLOUR!!! For example: Blue notebook=blue binder. IT'S GREAT.  OKAAAY FOR THE NEXT ITEM. Highliters  and pens. I just got a fresh supply since mine are running out.  I use these so often, so it's great to have even more. I like to colour c

Music covers

Hey y'all!!! OKAY I AM A HORRIBLE PERSON I KNOW. I HAVENT POSTED THE LAST COUPLE WEEKS. I was taking a first aid course last week, but I'm back again. And first aid certified :) SO. I have another post planned-involving pasta ;)- but I wanted to get this one out there first.  So since I've started taking singing lessons, I've started to feel a bit more confident with my voice. So I've decided to start doing music covers, on YouTube. I got a new guitar for my bday (I love it omg I've legit been playing it every day since I got it) and so I'll play and sing. It'll mainly be country music, with a bit of pop maybe. And I may play the piano for some. So I have three questions: 1) would anyone be interested in watching? 2) does anyone want to start with me? We could start and support one another as we go. It always helps to have someone who is working on the same goal, doing it with you, so if you have ever wanted to do this, hit me up with a comment or email,

Singing lessons pt. 2!!!!

HEYYYY. Okay so I've been waiting all week to post this, I kept saying that I'd post it on schedule but OH WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT I DIDN'T. I'm sorry about that :( It got late and as I was going to bed I remembered...oops. ANYWAYS DOING IT NOW. So I had my first singing lesson last week!!! It was honestly so fun. I was so nervous, but my teacher kept telling me to relax, which did help haha. We did the song "Fly" by Maddie and Tae (GO LISTEN TO IT IF YOU HAVEN'T ITS SO GOOD!!!!). So for this week, as far as practice, I had to work on that song, and on my breathing (apparently you don't get as much air if you move your shoulders to breathe. You have to breathe down). Which I did, and I have my second lesson today!!!!!!!!!!! SO excited I've literally been counting down the days lol. ANYWHO I have to go get ready for the day since I have been a lazy person and haven't. So I'ma go do that now. SEE YA! Till next time! ~Iris

I called to enquire and they said they had Monday and Tuesday's available, so I took both (I'm doing a 4 lesson plan just to try it out, then I'll do more if I can) and they said I could start today and you know what I said to that? HELL YEAH!! Okay jkjk. I didn't actually say that. But I did in my head. I've been wanting to take lessons for SO LONG and I finally am!!!! This is so cool. I hope it goes well.  I start in like an hour and a bit. So nervous and excited all at the same time!! I just couldn't wait to tell you all!! Have any of you taken singing lessons?
