Currently I'm not able to take any decent pictures (will explain why eventually) and I wanted to liven this blog up a bit, cause let's face it- my life just isn't that interesting.
/wrists
*Ahem*
So, I thought it'd be fun to post my favorite music videos of all time! Some come from when I was little, cause, like, when I was growing up MTV really did stand for Music Television. And they played music videos. A lot.
So, let's begin, okay?
(In no particular order...)
1) Blur- Coffee and TV
So, the reason I loved this video was because the little milk carton was SO. DARN. CUTE! Back then, the thing was to do semi-animated movies (is that what it was called?) where, like, cartoon characters could exist in a real life setting, but still be cartoons (think Space Jam). Despite the weird and scary things that sometimes happen to the poor milk cartoon, it had a happy ending. And a really catchy tune.
2) TIE!!!
Not only are the creative minds behind Gnarls Barkley musical geniuses, they're also not too bad when it comes to making music videos. Case in point: Going On and Who's Gonna Save My Soul.
Going On:
When I first saw this video, I had no idea where it was going (heh). It looked poorly made and I dunno, I just didn't think the video fit the song style. And then it kept going, got better, kept going, got me all emotional. When the video was over, I just stared at my computer screen for a moment, not able to comprehend the depth of the thing I'd just seen. I won't give too much away. It might not effect you the way it did me, but it's definitely worth seeing.
Who's Gonna Save My Soul:
Ever been blind-sided by a break-up? Gnarls Barkley knows how you feel. Seriously, if you've gotten the, "it's not you, it's me," or, "i just need some time for myself," or even the, "things were really good, but it's just time for us to move on," and you were sitting there thinking, "But... why???" then this video is for you. Honestly, if that's something you're going through right now and you want to explain to that person exactly how they've made you feel, send them this video. They'll get it. (Caution: Mind the gore.)
3) Temper Trap- Love Lost
Presenting the Endurance Test to end all Endurance tests! Seriously, if this happened in every gym class, they might've been more bearable. There is something precious about this video, and not just because of the kids. Some people might complain, "But what has this got to do with the song???" Those people have missed the point. Maybe you'll get it. Oh, and you might want to cover your eyes at the end.
4) Michael Jackson- Leave Me Alone
As a girl who's loved Michael Jackson all her life, even with all the unfortunate attention he received later in the years, it was bound to happen that I would have a favorite video of his (I won't be surprised if more pop up later on). It wasn't easy. So many of his videos remind me so strongly of a childhood spent with my cousins watching his music clips and mimicking his moves. I even wanted to grow up and marry him. What I love about this particular video is how he deals with all the unwanted attention from the media in his own way: both acknowledging the negative views people have of him and making fun of it all at the same time. This clip is the weirdest carnival you've ever been to and so apropos to what his life was like at the time.
5) Alanis Morissette- Ironic
(If anyone has a better quality version of this video, I'd be very grateful for a link.)
So, we all know that the ironic thing about this song is that it isn't actually about irony, which just makes it... um, ironic. The video, however, is Iconic with a capital 'I'. I was a kid when I saw it and it just seemed like magic to me how Alanis was able to duplicate herself just by getting into a car. And as a child with a short attention span, I was glued to every moment of this video. Every time I watched it (and it played on TV several times a day for a while). It's just one of those classics that will always have the same effect on people the first time they see it: they won't be able to forget it.
That's all for now!
Yes, yes I know it was short. I worried that if I tried to come up with the full list now, I'd forget some. So, I'm just gonna make this one of those things I come back to every now and then.
Even though this entry was completely devoid of drama, I hope it livened things up here, even if just a little bit.

Lola Says
Choose your battles wisely.
I used to be the type of person who never stood up for herself. I kept thinking that if I was just really nice to everyone, that people wouldn’t do bad things to me.
Unfortunately, this never seems to work.
From girls talking shit about me in school, to being used by countless people who I kept making excuses for (maybe she’s going through a rough time… Maybe he just misunderstood me…), I finally learned that some people are just bad sometimes.
In more recent years, I’ve learned to stand up for myself, but it’s taken some fine tuning.
I developed a temper and the ability to yell and I ended up winning quite a few arguments (though I rarely felt proud of the fact afterward). But I was happy in a way that I had found my voice.
I’d learned that it’s not okay to let people do whatever they want to you just so that they will like you. It took me a while to understand, but I do think I’m all the better for it.
But there was one more lesson to learn.
As much as something hurts; as much as it is untrue and just plain wrong, you cannot win every fight.
And some just aren’t worth fighting over.
Recently, I’ve learned that people who’ve known me all my life have started to believe I am a thief.
I am honest and kind of rude and irresponsible and selfish and lazy.
But I am not a thief.
Nor have I ever had a reputation for stealing.
So why would people who have known me my whole life suddenly start to believe otherwise?
I think a particular person who I haven’t gotten along with for some time has been spreading lies about me. Lies that unfortunately are being believed.
I wanted to fight. But then I realized something: if people have already made up their mind against you, it’s extremely difficult to change them. And it’s just not even worth it sometimes.
So I choose not to.
I have a feeling that whatever it is I have been accused of taking will turn up. And the people who have been treating me poorly will realize it was never taken in the first place… And guilt will solve the rest.
Until then I am on my own.
Yea, it hurts and I even took my big girl panties off so I could cry about it and curse the world and daydream about running away and becoming a gypsy. (did I really just misspell gypsy? Fucking hell. Spell check saves lives, friends.)
But what I am learning about being strong and believing in myself, even if everyone else is against me, makes up for all the bullshit.
So in the end, it’s worth it.
Bye sweets. <3

I Can't Think of Something Good To Call This Post
So...
As you can see, March was the month everything started going wrong.
The most important person in my life got really sick. And I... didn't realize how bad it was until he was hospitalized.
And then he couldn't get enough energy to stay awake very long.
And then he stopped waking up at all.
And then he died.
I'm still not okay.
I get that things happen in this world, but my life has been on drama overdose during this whole incident and well after.
True, I have become a stronger person due to everything.
But I'd really like it to stop now.
The previous post gives you some idea of what things have been like, but there's much more to the story. Someday, I'll air out everything, but for now I just needed to vent. I still want this blog to be happy and full of things I like and (eventually) pictures of things.
I even have blog posts written out that I'll get around to posting eventually. So, this thing isn't dead.
It's just... on a brief hold. I'm still determined to make this place my escape.
I really hope your lives are full of happiness and adventure and the you tell the person who means the most to you how much you love them as much as you can.
Stay strong, sweets. <3
Lola loves you.

Things I would like you to know...
(So, this is supposed to help as an anger outlet thingy. It's completely over the top and very exaggerated. Also, where the fuck have I been??? Being tortured by the person who brought you this blogpost.... verbally and through snide comments, never outright, of course. You'll get what I mean in a second...)
Hello!
Do you have time to sit and listen to me rant about how I’ve worked so hard throughout my life and because of this the world owes me EVERYTHING??? In fact, you owe me stuff, too. I’ll tell you about it later, using half-assed logic.
Anyway, my favorite thing to do is to bitch and moan about this 24 year old girl. I’m a 43 year old man with lots of grays and I like to think myself quite the distinguished gentleman, particularly when I do things like knock in her door and break half of my mother’s dishes in a fit of rage.
But it’s all the 24 year old’s fault, of course.
See, I come from a time when things were difficult and I had to struggle and the entire world underestimated me, so I decided to get back at authority often by loudly and angrily asserting my OWN authority.
This resulted in me hanging on to the “same” job in many different counties and states, because I just couldn’t seem to get along with my boss. As if ANYONE has the right to tell me what to do! Even if that is what I signed up for when I took the job….
IT’S NOT THE POINT, THOUGH!
The point is that I’m really charming and people love me, even though I frequently talk shit about them behind their back, I make them laugh when they’re around me, which is what counts. After all, I worked harder than them my whole life, which makes me better than everyone else.
But back to the point. So this 24 year old girl thinks she can get away with speaking her opinion about me (which is inaccurate, I mean, who doesn’t think I’m wonderful, because I AM) and she does it to my face! Plus, she‘s lazy. I mean, yea so what if you cook for yourself and clean up after yourself when you’re done. You’re a woman. And just like my wife, when I eat it’s your job to clean up after me. When I cook, I will leave the pot on the stove, full of grease and bits of food and it will be your job to take care of my mess.
I make it up by sweeping and mopping the floors a couple of times a week and then reminding everybody everyday that I do these things.
Oh and thanks for taking care of my mom, 24 year old girl I hate.
Oh and thanks for not minding that I take full credit for a lot of what you do for her.
After all, she’s my mom which means that everything you do for her is technically something that I am doing for her, which makes sense considering that this is my house- even though it’s hers. But she’s MY mother, so it works.
Anyway, what I’m trying to say is I’m on a mission to get this 24 year old bitch out of this house.
I don’t give a damn if she doesn’t have anywhere else to stay and we live in an area where minimum wage just isn’t gonna get the rent or bills paid. She don’t like me.
That bothers me, because everyone should like me. I’m completely wonderful, after all. And the bitch is lazy. She don’t like doing my dishes.
So I’m gonna keep saying things outside of her door when it’s closed to try to bother her. And I’m gonna keep trying to push her buttons, so that she flies off in a rage and breaks something and then
BAM
Imma call the cops on her ass and tell the police we don’t feel safe with her here. It’s not like she called the cops when I broke half the dishes and punched in her door. But I’ll do that to her so that she can get her ass out of here and my life will be good.
But even when she’s gone she better still bring her ass over here to take care of my momma that raised her, even though when she‘s here I‘m still gonna give her a hard time, because that‘s just how incredibly consistent I am.
And I got everyone on my side, because instead of telling people what I’m like, she tries to keep it to herself and figure out ways to deal with it like a grown up, instead of complaining to anyone who will listen about me, like I do to her.
She just do not know how to play this game.
Anyway, I gotta go. Got to think of another way to piss off this bitch. I’ll get her ass eventually.
I don’t care if she is my niece.

Make-Up Haul!!!
Warning: Did not edit this entry. Too damn lazy. Oh, and lots and lots of swearing in this post. Blame lack of sleep, okay?
Sooo, guess who spent tax return money on make-up??
Okay, not all of it, but I did add a lot of new stuff to my already abundant stash.
AND I GOT PICKCHAS!!!!!!111 omg.
They suck, but still.
So without further ado my March Make-Up haul (maybe this will become a thing?):
Garnier BB Cream
So, I already have a BB cream, I think it's by Maybelline, but I wasn't happy with it cause my skin gets REALLY oily, and it only added extra shine to my face.
That's why I was extremely happy to find this from Garnier. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm hoping it does as promised and keeps the shine off of my face.
*crosses fingers*
Kiss Premium Eyelashes
I don't wear eyelashes, cause I'm volumizing mascara dependent BUT I really want to start, so I saw these in the store (on sale) and figured, "Why not?"
They look really thick and full and my eyelashes are so thin they are damn near invisible. I'm guessing once I wear these the result will be hella dramatic.
Wet n Wild Creme Eyeliner in Cocoa and Maybelline Eyestudio Gel Liner in Charcoal
Hello my new addiction!!!
Fuck pencil, fuck liquid, Gel is my new shit. It goes on SO, SO, SO easy, and I'm like eyeliner inept, okay. I can't get a straight, non-messy line to save my life and cat eyes??? Forget it.
But that was before I tried Gel.
Now I can whip up a perfect winged eye in minutes, without constantly having to go over the line or clean up smudges. Seriously, putting on eyeliner used to be my least favorite make-up step and now I look forward to it.
I don't think I'll ever go back to pencils or liquid.
Ever.
Also, super cheap. The black gel I use (not pictured) is by Wet n Wild and it KICKS ASS. Seriously, it's the same quality as the more pricey stuff, but retails for $3.99. Definitely more value than what you pay for.
The one pictured, though, is from the Fergie line of products, so it retails for $4.99.
Damn you, Fergie! Hiking up my prices and shit.
CoverGirl Oil Control Foundation in Classic Tan
Remember how I mentioned I have really oily skin in some places?
Well, you're gonna start to see a trend of oil-free or shine-control products in the stuff I buy, cause I seriously can not with the shine.
I've used this foundation, but I got the Sensitve Skin kind, so I haven't tried this version yet. I have no idea if it will work, but I know the Sensitive Skin version didn't have too much shine when I wore it, so hopefully this stuff will be better.
From Top Left: CoverGirl LipPerfection in Euphoria, CoverGirl Eye Enhancers in Drama Eyes, CoverGirl Shadow Blast Smoky Eyes, CoverGirl Clean Oil-Control Pressed Powder Foundation in Warm Beige
If you'd asked me a week ago what my favorite drug store make up brand is, I'd have said Maybelline. Yet, I find myself constantly buying (and loving) CoverGirl products, sooo maybe it's CoverGirl after all?
So, out of these products, I actually have used the pressed powder, just in a different shade, and I've worn the lipstick.
The powder is once again oil-control (see, told you the oil-control thing will be a trend) and I really like it. The shade I had before was Classic Tan and it's too dark. (Yes, I know the liquid foundation I showed above is in Classic Tan, but for some reason the pressed powder goes on darker??? Idk why.)
I got the lipstick, because I've fallen fashionably late in love with the wine-colored lips trend and I was looking for a dramatic deep red that would suit my skin tone. And I found it!!!!
I love my lips when I'm wearing this lipstick. They are sexy, full and vampy and I feel like my pout could give Kemp Muhl's a run for her money (okay, not really, but still).
From top: Sally Hansen Lip Smoother, Maybelline Baby Lips in Peach Kiss, Covergirl LipPerfection in Heavenly, Maybelline ColorSensational in Warm Latte, Maybelline Baby Lips in Quenched
I'm all about the lips, lately. I think it's because ever since I caught the WORST COLD I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE my lips have been getting chapped very easily, so I needed products that could moisturize them which is where the Baby Lips and Lip Smoother come in.
I use the Baby Lips in Quenched the most, followed by the Lip Smoother and then Peach Kiss. All three get the job done, but Quenched has spf 20, the Lip Smoother has a glossy shine I love and Peach Kiss smells and tastes the best. So, really I love all three.
As for the two lipsticks, one was an impulse buy and one I got from my Gma cause she bought it and never wore it. It was still sealed up!
The LipPerfection in heavenly is a VERY bold pink that I somehow get away with depending on what I'm wearing (it looks really good with big, dark sunglasses lol).
The ColorSensational I wear when I'm doing big, dramatic eyes and I want a lipstick that won't compete with my eyes. It's a gorgeous shimmery bronze color that looks perfect with my skin tone. <33
I wanted to show what each of the colors look like, but I have terrible lighting in my apartment (AND MOSQUITOES FUCKING HELL!!!!), so this is the best I could do:
From Bottom to top: LipPerfection in Heavenly, LipPerfection in Euphoria, ColorSensational in Warm Latte
Looks like shit, right? I neeeed better lighting. Bad.
Early attempt to capture lip color while wearing the lip stick.
Lolfail.
And do you see? My kiss is only worth 20 cents.... LOLfml.
Impress Press On Nails in Chic Mystique
Yay for the easiest manicure in the fucking world!
Seriously, all you do is peel 'em off like they're a sticker, put them on your nails (make sure you line them up correctly, cause once they're set they ARE NOT MOVING), hold them down for about 20 seconds and BOOM you're done. And your nails look perfect.
Love!
Sally Hansen Salon Effects in Metal Head
Can you tell I'm really lazy when it comes to doing my nails?
Haha, not really, but I just get SO SICK of spending time painting my nails to perfection and then having them chip five minutes later.
I haven't used these yet, but they seem like a cool idea.
Plus, I won't have to spend 20 fucking minutes applying, drying, reapplying, then using art deco for intricate design.
Then ruining when I wash the dishes. :/
Clean & Clear Oil Absorbing Sheets
Just in case all the other oil-control products fail.
You can never be too careful, k?
AND NOW A SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCE FROM.....
My new shoes!!!!
Aren't they prettiful????
Believe it or not both were under $20. The boots were $17.94 and the booties $19.99.
Great buy, right???
And that concludes this entry.
Sorry my pics are shit, but I'm still learning, okay? One day I will have the best pictures in the whole world on this blog.
And then I will wake up and find it was all one, pathetic dream. /emo shit
Bye sweets. <33
P.S. I'm beginning to wonder if the view count on my blog is right. According to Google I've had a ton of traffic and views (not counting mine, I swear!), but none of you bitches comment.
What gives?
Oh, well. I'm not writing this blog for you anyway. I'm writing for my future kids, okay, who will read this and think, "Dear Jesus, why'd you give me this loser for a mommy? Why???"
lolmylifeisbelowaverage. :/

Lola's Busy (and sober... for now): Try Your Call Again Later
Only 8 blog posts so far in 2013 (not counting this one).
I suppose you could say I'm not off to the best start...
A lot has been happening, though, and not all of it positive. I don't want to commemorate the negative moments in my life (unless I can put a humorous spin on them), though maybe I should vent about a few things.
OH!
On a huge, mega positive note... I GOT INTO SCAD!!! (google it)
I think I mentioned in an earlier post wanting to move to Savannah and SCAD is one of the reasons why. The only issue I currently face is all the financial shit. I'm pretty positive, though, I will qualify for some pretty awesome scholarships/grants which should hopefully take care of all the heavier costs. And then FAFSA should cover the rest. *fingers crossed*
Aside from that, my inner party girl has emerged. Quite frankly, I'd forgotten she even existed!
I haven't seen her since I was a teenager. But she is back with a VENGEANCE.
I've been going out to a bar called Bru's Room every Friday. I get a little drunk and do a little dancing and it's all a blast (with one notable exception, but I'm trying not to dwell on negatives so...).
Last Friday night, though, was a different best. I discovered something called a Blue Long Island which is this tasty drink, that is brimming with tons of hard liquors that you DON'T TASTE AT ALL so you foolishly drink lots and lots of these and then....
BOOM
you're chocolate wasted.
When did I become that sloppy girl that spills her drink all over the place and awkwardly grinds with boys on the dance floor???
Must stop.
Cute girls don't get shit-faced. This is a new rule.
Still, it's exciting to know that I can indeed "hang" with my younger cousins (ugh, I sound SO old, I'm only 24 , WAAAHHHHH somebody make me stop aging omgggg!) who keep inviting me out to these shenanigans (since when do I use that word, i am aging faster on the inside, WTH?!).
Oh, and and and I think I just got a new job! Waiting to get called back, but am really hoping I do cause now with the whole SCAD thing I could use more income.
So, yea, 2013 has been ridiculously busy, but in a good way. Now just need to get the self-improvement stuff down and I will be solid.
POSITIVE VIBE is in full force today. Please, please stay.
Will update more on my crazy life eventually.
Bye sweets. <3
P.S. Was supposed to attend a lot of festivals that were held this month, buuut I missed them.
All.
Fucking hell. Guess I'll just have to fill this blog with pictures from the bar from now on. heh

When did I become that sloppy girl that spills her drink all over the place and awkwardly grinds with boys on the dance floor???
Must stop.
Cute girls don't get shit-faced. This is a new rule.
Still, it's exciting to know that I can indeed "hang" with my younger cousins (ugh, I sound SO old, I'm only 24 , WAAAHHHHH somebody make me stop aging omgggg!) who keep inviting me out to these shenanigans (since when do I use that word, i am aging faster on the inside, WTH?!).
Oh, and and and I think I just got a new job! Waiting to get called back, but am really hoping I do cause now with the whole SCAD thing I could use more income.
So, yea, 2013 has been ridiculously busy, but in a good way. Now just need to get the self-improvement stuff down and I will be solid.
POSITIVE VIBE is in full force today. Please, please stay.
Will update more on my crazy life eventually.
Bye sweets. <3
P.S. Was supposed to attend a lot of festivals that were held this month, buuut I missed them.
All.
Fucking hell. Guess I'll just have to fill this blog with pictures from the bar from now on. heh
