Hi guys!
I know I haven't posted in forever. I've had a little bit of family medical issues, lots of school, and little free time. I'm not going to promise on how much I'll post, but I still want to be active in the blog community. However, I've unfollowed several fashion/beauty blogs just because I'm not really into that as much as I used to be. I hope everyone is doing well!

Big Five Personality Test
Hullooooooo my friends!
In my psychology class the other day, we had to take a personality test. I love learning about my personality and this one kind of surprised me. It's called The Big Five Personality Test and measure five things - Extroversion, Emotional Stability, Orderliness, Accomodation, and Intellect.
My type was SLOAI, with my primary type being Organized. So here's what it means:
Extroversion results were high which suggests you are overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense too often of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.
Orderliness results were high which suggests you are overly organized, neat, structured and restrained at the expense too often of flexibility, variety, spontaneity, and fun.
Emotional Stability results were moderately low which suggests you are worrying, insecure, emotional, and anxious.
Accommodation results were medium which suggests you are moderately kind natured, trusting, and helpful while still maintaining your own interests.
Inquisitiveness results were medium which suggests you are moderately intellectual, curious, and imaginative.
Here are my key words: "open, organized, asks lots of questions, outgoing, prone to panic, easily hurt, narcissistic, detail oriented, concerned about others, the first to act, believes children need firm discipline, finishes most things they start, comfortable around others, upset by the misfortunes of strangers, socially skilled, compliments others frequently, interested in people, busy, interested in the problems of others, tense, physically affectionate, overly nice, likes to lead, generous, in touch with feelings, not afraid to draw attention to self, manipulative, prone to jealousy, worrying, easily excited, motivated by a desire for acclaim, prone to addiction, frequently driven to impress others, passionate about causes, swayed by emotions, curious, anxious, passionate about bettering the world's condition, stressed, keeps spaces clean, believes in human goodness, well informed, thoughtful, assertive, fears doing the wrong thing, rushed."
You can read more about the key here.
I was actually surprised that I got so high in Extroversion, especially since I consider myself an introvert. But I guess because I don't really mind being the center of attention, and because I talk all the time, that put me in the extrovert category because other people might feel really uncomfortable. I think overall, however, this result described me pretty well. :)

Sorry for the lack of posts!
Hey guys! Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I have some posts in drafts, but nothing I really wanted to post right away. I just haven't felt like updating lately because I've been busy with other hobbies, but keep checking back to the site. Thank you, followers! Have a nice weekend! :D ♥

If You Met Me
I so took this from Nela haha.
If you met me I would be smiling and laughing in no time.
If you met me you would notice that I look young for my age but I'm really mature. People say I have an old soul.
If you met me I would talk your head off but I wouldn't give much information about my personal life because I'm a pretty private person.
If you met me you would see that my best and really only friend is my older sister. We have so much in common (in addition to being related!) and I don't know many people in my town who have the same standards, morals, and interests as us. She's the best! :D
If you met me I would try to make you feel very comfortable.
If you met me I would ask you what music you liked and then recommend you a bunch of songs.
If you met me you would see how close I am to my whole family.

I'm Currently Reading...Bleak House by Charles Dickens
I'm reading the Signet Classics version, but it doesn't say 150th Anniversary Edition on mine. I don't know if there is any difference though.
Currently reading: Bleak House by Charles Dickens
Author: Charles Dickens
Written: Between 1852 and 1853 in 20 monthly installments.
Reason: I really like most of the Dickens books that I read, and my sister has been wanting me to read this one. Since winter break is coming up and school is starting to slow down for me, I thought this would be the perfect time for me to read it.
Chapters read so far: 1 - 6.

Thoughts: Confidence
Today my loves we are talking about confidence.
DUN DUN DUNNNNN.
Talking about confidence can be scary, I know. A lot of people have so many insecurities that trying to be confident can actually be just another insecurity for them. However, confidence is something you need to grasp a hold of as soon as you can. It can take a while to build confidence, but as long as you're working on it that's what matters. I know a lot of people do posts or videos about confidence (confidence, confidence, confidence - I'm going to be saying this word so much lol), so I want to give you the Lydia outlook on it. :)
1. Identify what you are insecure about. For most girls, and some guys even, it's outward attractiveness that gets them the most upset about themselves. For others, it's something about themselves like not being very outgoing or feeling that they come across as too overbearing. Whatever it is, WRITE THAT SUCKER DOWN. Admit to yourself, "Yeah. This is something I feel really insecure about and consider one of my flaws." Own it girl, own it.
2. Pick some things that you like about yourself. It may only be one thing, but choose it. Your hair color, your personality, your eyes, your little toe's nail, whatever. Write down some things that you like about yourself.
3. Now go back to what you are insecure about and find something about that insecurity that you can be confident in. For example, say you are insecure about your ears. Say something to yourself like, "Yep, I'm insecure about my ears because I think they are too big. But I'm confident about the fact that I'm a really good listener with them." See? Now you have something about them that you like. You can go on to name the things about your ears that you are thankful for, too. "I'm thankful that I have ears. I'm thankful that I'm not deaf. I'm thankful that I have long hair to cover them if I want." Also remember that as far as outward appearances go, people see you as a whole, not a bunch of parts (or they shouldn't - if they do they're really weird o.O). Remind yourself that body parts serve a function greater than just being the prettiest - they're for eating, hearing, talking, smelling, seeing, touching, walking, holding, etc.
After you've done that last step for everything you are insecure about, you'll actually find that a lot of the things you are insecure about are pretty insignificant and you may actually begin to LIKE that unique characteristic. And even if you are still convinced that what you are insecure about is ugly or whatever, you'll have to admit that there are a lot more good things about that flaw than there are bad. I'm going to do another post dedicated to haters (hey y'all ;D), so keep an eye out for that.

How do you stay confident?

Some recent Tumblr likes.
Hola! I wanted to let everyone know that I created a new Tumblr. It's the same URL (you can visit it HERE) but it's got new content and everything. :) In this post I also wanted to share some of the photos that I liked on my Tumblr dashboard but didn't actually reblog. Most of it is fashion and makeup related (and also mostly Korean because...well....I really like their fashion and makeup). Enjoy! ^_^
