August Faves | Hello September!

Hey guys!
Today is the first day of September!!! Can you believe it?!

So here are my favorites from last month!!


Song: Okay well this is quite difficult because to EP for Shes Kinda Hot came out and another song from 5SOS new album... and Halsey's new album titled 'BADLANDS' is out.  I RATE IT VERY HIGHLY BY THE WAY <3
But I'd have to say my faves off Halsey's album are Drive and Control and then Jet Black Heart by 5SOS, even though the EP is incredible too!!!

Thing I did:  1D obviously!  Its been exactly a week since I saw them and I still have to remind myself IT WAS REAL.

Outfit: Don't know the answer for a whole outfit but my favorite piece is my OTRA shirt from the concert :D

EOS: Oh umm whats the name of the dark pink one...

If you have any ideas for better and new questions for me to do at the end of the month, please comment or whatever :)


Assuming school has or is about to start for you, Good luck!  Summer really flew by didn't it... later this week I am doing a Summer Re-cap post!  So stay tuned for that!

Imagine this...

Take a few minutes to put yourself in the place I was last night...

Last night, the 25th of August was no normal Tuesday.  One Direction performed in Milwaukee for the first time in their 5 year history as a band.
As you know, I've been a fan and have supported them since 2011, parts of 2012 I wasn't because of pressure from people around me, Isn't that greatttt.  But guess what?  I don't care anymore of what anyone thinks of what I listen to or what I like.
Almost one year ago, October 2014, they announced they would be coming to Milwaukee, obviously I was excited and wanted to go.  Without going into detail of the months between October and May (not the greatest time of my life to be completely honest!!), I had some trouble actually getting someone to go with me. My wonderful friend agreed to go with me finally.  Our tickets arrived in May and I started counting down the days...

Last night it came to life.  Of course I still feel like it was a dream. The fact that they were in front of me is incredible.  My favorite songs live was just surreal.
Proud to admit, I cried almost the entire show and regret none of that. My arms hurt and I was thirsty and hungry but I gave it my all to really live in that moment because like I had prepared myself to be, it was the best day of my entire life.
I had never been so excited in my entire 16  years. Now, I have never been as sad that something was over or missed people so much.
The music, the people... just amazing.  (Living proof last night that Directioners aren't 12.  We were when we started liking them, obviously! Mostly everyone was my age or older!)
I know they say similar things each show, but the sincerity was real. They meant every word.  They really did love it here, I could tell.

Do you know what its like to have 4 favorite people that you have never met or until yesterday, seen, but completely trust them and love them more than anything else?  Well I do.  Because who was there when no one else was?  They were.  They may not know the details, but they realize that people feel this way and it makes them so thankful.  I could not ask for a better group of people to support and love. The awards we help them win by tweeting hashtags endless times a day, the songs we trend and get to the top charts without anyone else promoting it?  I love this family of Directioners and I love Harry. Niall. Louis and Liam more than anything.  They have made my life more exciting, given me something to really be passionate about and something that I have made so many friends through.  Think of all the lessons I've learned from just loving a band! Crazy. Maybe you think I'm overdoing it, but other people feel this way too and I cannot explain how happy I was last night to finally see them.

I am still in disbelief.
As a plus, Niall's hair was so fluffy and Louis had his the way I like it the most and Harry.. his hair is always perfect and Liam's is always in perfect place.  They all wore the outfits I had hoped they would, that was fantastic LOL.
And they played four different 5SOS music videos before and I got to see them on the big screen <3
And when Harry threw water into the crowd from his bottle, I was hit with it... I'VE BEEN GIVEN NEW LIFE :')

They talked about our state and that they loved it here.  They talked about cheese and the Packers and how excited they were.  They said they loved us and were so thankful.  And I knew they meant it.

I wish I could thank them personally, but until that day I'm gonna keep doing what I am now.



Here are the best of the terrible quality pictures I took!















I don't think I will ever get used to the fact I. SAW. THEM.
Unbelievable.  Best day of my life <3

Really random fandom stuff and WOW THREE DAYS TO 1D

Hey guys!!!

Welcome to another one of my casual rants,

What I am preparing myself to be the best day of my life, is just three days away.
I already know One Direction is going to go way over my high expectations because, they're that awesome.

This week, they released their new music video for Drag me Down which is super epic because it was filmed at NASA. Here is the link!!!! Drag me Down video
That song is so catchy, I will never get over it,

Aaaaand that same day, 5SOS performed on GMA and they ROCKEDDDDDD.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND 5SOS new album is getting closer too!!! Don't forget, its October 23rd!!  You can pre order it on their site and elsewhere: Pre Order Sounds Good Feels Good

Oh and just to go over this, Thursday morning I was at my friends house, everyone was sleeping but me.  I was scrolling through Twitter and saw the hashtag #WeLoveYouMichael.  Figured something bad happened, so I checked it out.
Just so happens, my main bae, Michael Clifford of 5SOS, opened up about his mental health at a show.  He has never mentioned it before and said he had gone to therapy the other day while on break.  I was really hit by it, as was the rest of the 5SOS fam.  People had claimed it to be a joke, but when they were on GMA, he spoke briefly saying "He is taking care of it"
So there I was, upset and honestly, didn't want to talk about it because TEARS,
Heres an article too: http://www.billboard.com
Wow so many links in this post.

We already had known this but I quote:
"Earlier this summer, 5SOS drummer Ashton Irwin admitted that he’s “dealt with anxiety and depression in my life” and said the group’s upcoming record, due out this fall, will tackle some of those personal issues. “With our next album we want to sort of have more messages for life involved in what we do because we have a voice for young people,” Irwin said."

Also, they keep saying they are starting something called the New Broken Scene, also a lyric from the single Shes Kinda Hot. Ashton calls it a revolution for misfit kids of the time, who feel like they have no where to go.  Sounds pretty good right?  Well it all comes to life in their new album :D
I swear I should be a promoter ok? ok,  

BACK TO MY ORIGINAL TOPIC!!!

I AM SEEING ONE DIRECTION.  I'M GONNA SEE NIALL PLAY HIS GUITAR, AND HARRY'S HAIR FLIP, AND LIAM POINT TO THE CROWD AND TELL EVERYONE TO BE LOUDER AND ASK IF WE'RE HAVING A GOOD TIME AND LOUIS TO ROCK THOSE HEAVENLY HARMONIES AND TOTALLY SMASH 'NO CONTROL'. yep, okay. 
I'm excited now, haha.   

I will be totalllyyyyy posting pics here the next day or so, maybe a snapchat video too or IG picture :)

WISH ME LUCK OK???  I might post the day of it as well!!!!

Updates and (LATE!) July faves!

Hey everyone.

Thank you SO much for 83 follows.  It means so much to me!

So. I think I can take a moment to share my thoughts on 1D's new single 'Drag me Down',

Its so well written, their harmonies are amazing and the overall song is kind of a 'feel good' song.  They all LOVE the song and were so excited to release it!  Now I get to hear this song live too, and I AM SO EXCITED because the YouTube video of their first performance of it is amazing.  I'm in love with this song, really.

Tomorrow. the video for 5SOS 'She's kinda Hot' is released! I posted my thoughts on that song before and I loveeee that song to pieces.

Tuesday I leave for vacation until the 13th and I hope I can update during that time.  I WILL try to be posting on Instagram throughout my trip, so please follow me if you're interested!  My username is lizziew99.

Okay, time for my favorites!



  • Song - She's kinda Hot or Drag me down... OF COURSE
  • Movie - Once again, I did not see any new movies. :P
  • Outfit - My black skater skirt with my navy blue ringer tee. 
  • Nail polish color - Grey
  • EOS - Tangerine
  • Fruit - Blueberries
  • *NEW QUESTION - Drink - Green tea, which I've been trying to drink every day!  

I hope you all enjoy this month as summer starts to come to a close... so soon. 

Summer flew past but I really accomplished so much and I had  a lot of great, fun and fulfilling experiences.  
I can't wait to share a whole rundown of pictures and favorite parts of my summer at the end of this month!!  
Until soon,

Mid summer updates

I have been super inactive on Blogger lately.  Updating and even reading other blogs.  Summer camps have finally ended for me before I move on to the next part of my summer!

Counselling two camps with different age groups was super amazing and fun.  Most of the girls there were fantastic!
Being home is weird!  Lat weekend I was in my camper with my friends and now I'm actually at home again and last night slept in my own bed for the first time since July 4th.
I can't update with pictures right now but I had a great two weeks of camp.  From my last post I was super wiped out and that was true but I really did enjoy it as usual.

I can get back to usual posts before I go on vacation, etc.

Also today, 5SOS released their new single "She's kinda hot".  Even I thought it sounded like the stupidest song yet but nope.  don't judge a song by its title because the lyrics and music are amazing. They say its a great lead up for the album and they are releasing a video soon.  The song honestly has nothing to do with the title after the first verse.  Super catchy too of course.

-40 DAYS TILL ONE DIRECTION FOR ME- yes!

Updating again soon!

Dyeing hair

Lets start off this post by thanking my inspiration for this post of course, Michael Clifford of 5SOS (aka my style icons haha). Once again dyed his hair. It was blue and now its black and oh my goodness it looks spectacular...

Anyways, yesterday I lightened my sisters hair with lemon juice and colored mine with... wait for it... COFFEE. I was covered in coffee from literally spooning it onto my hair...ummm...
I have tried and tried to get the last of my blonde highlights from last summer out out. No luck. But my hair is really soft and smells great hahaha. Im going to try it again soon.
You just soak your hair in strong, dark coffee for an hour.

Have any of you ever dyed your hair?

When you can't think of a post title.

For my birthday last month,  I picked out some things online to get from my parents.  Two of these things were poster collections. So finally yesterday, I got my two poster books each filled with wonderful, 28 double sided photos of my favorite people...




I didn't finish putting all of them up yet,  and quite  a few of these I already owned before yesterday.  As I'm losing space on my portion of my room, I started hanging them on the ceiling which looks pretty cool to be honest.   It was too dark in my room to take a picture with the light off, so there's a glare on two of the posters but otherwise thats it ^^
I also finally got my own copy of 'This is Us', One Direction's movie from 2013.
So theres my added pieces to my collection of 1D and 5SOS products!

Exciting news!  One Direction started writing their fifth album!!!  Believe it or not, I'm kind of excited to hear them without Zayn.  It'll be super interesting but their albums keep getting better and better so I cannot wait for this.
5SOS is still in the studio recording their second album.  They seem really excited to release it!  They've said the lyrics are really great so I'm sure they're doing their best.  And they've worked with a lot of other great bands too, so their sound is bound to be amazing!  Hopefully that comes out in late summer or something :)

Another exciting week in the fandom

Starting out a normal week, over the days we accumulated more excitement than anything.

One Direction (a few days ago)  had their last show of the first leg of their tour, and now a two month break.  (Thank God)
So, during the break so far, Niall went to Georgia for a golf game and it was pretty wonderful from the pictures.  He was even interviewed and was quite embarrassed\happy at the fact he was caddying for a major golfer.   ... And he was nervous and slipped on pine needles... that was interesting.



Yesterday, Louis got out of his car in his hometown (Doncaster) and met some fans on the side of the road... with no shoes on.  Nevertheless, we got some nice pictures from that.

Switching over to 5SOS, Michael Clifford dyed his hair... again.
Really liking this color, to be honest


Last but not least.  (this is not official yet) but, Modest Management (1D's management)  who the whole fandom hates for 'controlling 1D's actions etc' seems to have (temporarily??) taken One Direction off their site.  They could be updating the page to have it without Zayn or maybe they let 1D go.  Whatever happened, Twitter is having a major party right now.  We're so happy if they actually dropped 1D.

What I did last weekend (+and more)

♧ Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone!  

I kept forgetting to post pictures of what I bought last weekend with my friends!

First, I got this adorable Aztec Print wallet for $2!  Yeah, only $2!!!
I actually don't remember where I got it because we went to so many stores it might have been Charlotte Russe... no idea.  Anyway, its a lot bigger than my other wallet! But of course I'll still use that one but this one is a bit nicer for spring and summer.

Next, I got an All Time Low wristband from HotTopic for $7.  It's hard to see the words on the wristband obviously because its round... haha.

Last but definitely not least, my friends bought me a 5SOS shirt from HotTopic for my birthday! Yayyy!!!  Its so wonderful.


Oh! And I finally bought myself an eyelash curler for $1. I kept forgetting I wanted one. I think those are just really nice and make your eyes look more open. And i have this horrible problem where my eyelashes get like, stuck together and this seems to help so far!

One more thing!  Tomorrow I have an appointment for getting a mold thing made for my retainer when my braces come off! The day they come off is getting closer!!! :D

What am I freaking out about now.

THANK YOU EVERYONE SO MUCH FOR 65 FOLLOWS!!!!!!!!!


If you read my last annoying post, you probably know what I am about to say! I watched most of the 1st On the road again One Direction concert today through YouTube and Vines. Yeah... vines... 7 second videos... yep. IT WAS GREAT AND HARRY STYLES HAS GOLD BOOTS AAHHHHHH 
AND MY FAVORITE SONG IS ON THE SETLIST OF THIS SHOW... HERE'S THE LINK IF YOU WANT:One Direction - Diana OTRA 7-2-15 Sydney HD: http://t.co/Q8OeC0vlYh 

Harry's boots :)
Lilo knows whats up^^
One thing about this tour setlist is that theres tons of songs from their last album too... which is great because its my favorite album... but its more than usual. And it kinda makes it seem like a 2nd go on the last tour. There was even a hashtag for it... #OTRAnotWWA2.0 LOL. But the Australian fans are really angry, I am along with them, that they were treated like a dress rehearsal. Apparently the setlist might change for the U.S. and European part of the tour because Australia didn't get the last tour so it was like a take 2 for them.... I hope they DO include more songs from FOUR.
OOOHHHH AND ONE MORE THINGGGGGGG
MICHAEL CLIFFORD DYED HIS HAIR BLUE. AGAIN. BUT MORE BEAUTIFUL. The Orange and Red are still my faves though!!! I don't even know how to explain what was going on in my head when I saw this....

Its so lovely :'}

I'll let you all go back to your lives now... maybe sometime this week I'll have a legitimate blog post and not crazy fangirling rants.

Happiness is...

{Please excuse my obsession with bands...I don't care what you think}

I think everyone receives happiness in a different way.
Maybe you can only find happiness in money or maybe every cup of coffee you drink is enough to fill you with enough joy to make it through the day.
What is happiness for you?
For me, one of the biggest things is bands. Music is way to escape anything at all. Maybe some things you'd rather not talk about or maybe something small. I use it to entertain myself and it honestly makes me happy.But something just as important are the people in the band. How passionate they are about what they do. And you can tell when people are and are not for sure.
 One of my favorite bands, as you probably know, is 5 seconds of summer. A pop/punk band {as they call themselves}, made of 4 guys aging from just turned 18 to 20 years old. Australian and started out by making covers on YouTube. Their drummer joined in 2011, the youngest inn the band was just 15, and they started doing a few gigs at local places in Sydney. They were recognized by Louis Tomlinson from One Direction and the Australians popularity grew fast.
In 2012 they joined 1D for their Take me Home tour and also this year for their Where we are tour. This year 5 seconds of summer is on their own tour and released their first studio album and have an upcoming Live Album.
Personally, i think it is super impressing. From YouTube to traveling the world? Not only crazy, but motivating.
What I'm getting at is, is that today is their 3rd anniversary of being a band. They must be so proud. I know I am.

Then.


                                                       Now.
