I had to go on myspace to get some of these pictures...it's creepy there, like an abandoned house.

While I was in creepy myspace land, I found this old picture of Cam and I. I really like my hair like this...maybe it's time to get it cut again?

30 Day Challenge; Day 2

The meaning behind my blogger name;

 There isn't really a hidden meaning behind "Pretty Little Teacup". I just really like teacups and I think they're pretty. It was just kind of the first name that popped into my head, it's simple and I love it.

Truc;

One year ago today, one of my good friends was killed in a car accident. Another boy, Ryan, I went to school with was also killed.
Truc was a great guy. He was hilarious, down to earth, and was always there when someone needed a helping hand. The last thing we did together was go to the movies and see  Knight and Day.


I still can't watch that movie without bawling my head off.

In high school, Truc and I had anatomy class together. I don't think I would've passed that class without him dissecting my fetal pig for me. He was always trying to teach us Vietnamese in anatomy. The only word I remember is bacon, because it's exactly the same in English. I'll miss him taking me to Dairy Queen (where he worked) and getting the most obnoxious blizzard anyone could think of. (Chocolate Xtreme with Strawberry Cheesequake chunks, sprinkles, and a cherry on top)
Truc was such a great guy, and it sucks so bad that everyone had to loose such a great friend.

I miss you like crazy, Truc. Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, I hope you're having the best time in the world.

F-F-Favorites;

I promised a post, and here it is in all its uncreative glory. Everyone has a favorite something, obvs. I think some of my favorites are worthy of showing the whole interwebz.


FAVORITE TELEVISION SHOWS;

 001. Dexter; My all time favorite show, ever, in the history of my life. I love all of the accidental humor in this, plus the whole murderous thing is pretty cool too. Dexter Morgan is my super hero.
002. Bones; I'm a sucker for mystery cop shows. This one's a little different than Law and Order or CSI though.
003. Desperate Housewives; What can I say? I love the drama, the bitches, and Mike Delphino.


FAVORITE MOVIES;



001. Sweeny Todd; Johnny Depp is my main man, like most women in America I want him in my pants. He's a fantastic actor too though.
002. Chocolat; Yeah, another JD movie.
003. Cry Baby; I told you he was my main man.
004. The Little Mermaid; My favorite movie of all time. I've loved it ever since I was a little girl and I haven't ever stopped
005. Alice in Wonderland; This would also go on my favorite books list.

FAVORITE MUSIC ARTISTS;

 001. Matt Nathanson; I love the calmness of his voice.
002. Blink-182; I've loved me some Mark Hoppus ever since I was a little girl. I grew up listening to these guys and they've been my favorites ever since.
003. Kid Cudi; His music is so real, so I really like it. (like my stupid pun?)

I won't bore you with anymore of my favorites now :)

xoxo, Raven

I solemnly swear;

That I will put up a new post today! I want to do this to my nails <3                    ------------------->

I'm Fallin' For Fall

Autumn is the best season ever, and it's almost here! Eeeek! My favorite month of the year is October; It's when the leaves are gorgeous golds, reds, and browns. I love love love Halloween, and I love not sweating my ass off everyday.
I don't know where you're from, but in Indiana it gets ridiculously  hot and humid. Fall is an amazing break from all of it. Plus, I can wear my cardigans, hoodies, and jackets!
I'm so giddy right now with the thought of being able to drink hot chocolate on the porch, go on walks under the leaves, and get adorable fall decorations for the 1st time! Ahhhh! I can hardly contain myself :P

 Yes. Just yes.


The trees are one of the best things about Fall. Hoodies, bonfires, and being cozy are the other best things.



Can I live here please?

What's your favorite season and why?

xoxo, Raven
