So my ex-boyfriend, Jarrod, broke up with me last April. When we dated, he knew I had a website. But that was when I had my old URL, lindsay.kissthehyphen.org. Then I moved to belleamour.org, but I put up a "Moved" sign on my old site so my visitors could change their bookmarks and whatnot. When he broke up with me, he stopped talking to me completely. And that was really hard for me because he was like a best friend, as well as a boyfriend. Losing a best friend is always hard.

He started dating my friend 3 or 4 days after he broke up with me, but she broke up with him at the end of October. So I blogged a couple days later, with the title "Good Week So Far =]" referring to the first few points I made in my blog, about me going to MuchMusic to see the cast of Twilight and my birthday. It had nothing to do with the fact that they broke up, but a couple days after I blogged about it, he comes up to me at work and was basically freaking out about me blogging about them breaking up and how I was happy about it, and that I apparently lied when I stated in my blog that she broke up with him because he said he wanted to get married and have kids with her. Um, excuse me, but I still have the chat log of that conversation with her where she told me that. So she was obviously the liar, telling him that I made it all up.

Here's the blog entry he complained about: (This all happened in November, but I had to let off this steam because it's been bothering me ever since it happened)

I just received the most exciting news in my life. EVER!

On November 15th, some of the Twilight cast are coming to MuchMusic! And I was invited to go with my friend! OME! (For those of you who aren't aware, that means "Oh my Edward!")
So 14 days until that. And 19 days until the movie!

I had an excellent birthday.
I got 3 goldfish from my dad and money from everyone else in my family. My friends all got me clothes, and some other amazing things.

I'm getting my wisdom teeth out on Monday. I'm kind of excited, as weird as that sounds. They've been hurting me a lot lately so I just want them out of there. And I get to miss 2 days of school & work.

And my ex, who broke up with me in April and started dating my friend 3 days later, was dumped by her a couple days ago.
She told me that he was telling her he wanted to get married and have kids and all that with her.
I'd be backing away from him, too, if any guy ever told me that. =/

And on that same note, I'm kind of seeing someone. He's a guy from school who is in my coop class. It's nothing serious, but it's something.

And here's the part of the conversation where she told me what happened with them:

11:54pmLindsay
hey. are you okay?

11:54pmStephanie
yah?

11:55pmLindsay
okay. well i saw your status and was just wondering if you were alright. i mean, you seemed fine in the store but you never know lol

11:57pmStephanie
just cause you gonna hear anyways... i ended it cause i am not sure who i am i don't know what I want with my life and what he wanted was to much

[...]

12:04amStephanie
reason for leaving jarrod cause he wante more as in a family one day with me.. we have talked about marriage and kids

Yup, I'm a liar when I have the conversation right there
But I didn't care enough to send it to him, because I didn't really care if he believed me or not. My real friends know what happened and have enough trust in me that I didn't need to prove it to anyone else.

And as if him overreacting to the blog entry wasn't bad enough. He fucking showed her the blog. So then she commented on it:

INDEFENCE......yah i'm the so called friend(who was also goodfriends with her ex while they dated I never made an actually move on him) what I did was bitchie I know! So I don't need the hate mail back I already know it was bad... she wanted us to wait a year or 2 SORRY but theres a whole other story to this that she ain't saying... I just wanna say our "ex" is actually a great guy... not creepy not an ass hole and "Lindsay I said he would do anything for me which one of those things was if we had the money now he would do all that for me." What girl doesn't want that maybe you cause your only 17(and I actually recall you saying thats what you wanted with him while you were 15-16...) of a couple weeks ago.. And we are still sorta together.. I am just not on the same page right now... and I thought hun that you were done with us and here your writing about us I don't see how thats good news(1st part sure) but its 7 months later... he hasn't said anything to you even since... you should not care.. Sorry for everything

have a good life Lindsay

#1: What hate mail? LOL I don't understand what she meant about that.

#2: I never said I wanted them to wait a year or two to date each other. Sounds like she's the liar here, not me

#3: When did I ever say I wanted to marry him when I was 15 or 16?? Excuse me, but I think I know myself better than you do and I'm not so naive to believe that a high school relationship would last that long. And again, she said in the conversation that he wanted more than she did, so apparently she doesn't want that.

#4: Um, I'm pretty sure visiting your ex-girlfriend's website after not speaking to her for months is classified as creepy.

#5: I said I was done with her like a week after I wrote that entry, whereas she commented a couple days after I told her I didn't want to be her friend anymore.

#6: Just because I wrote a couple sentences about him, does NOT mean I care that much. I just thought it was a bit shocking because I expected them to last longer.

Sorry for the long post, but I've been waiting to get that all out for a long time and I didn't want to blog about it at the time because he'd probably read it and freak out again. I am not about to start any more drama with them. Wherever they go, drama follows, I swear. I guess I just thought it was weird that he still visited my website after not even speaking to me for months.

Prom was awesome!
Here's a couple pictures of me, my dress, my friends and my date. =)

There's a bunch more, but these are a few of my favourites

Hey everyone!

So the first thing I want to talk about is my upcoming prom! The theme is "A Moment in Time" and they're going to have pictures from the last 4 years all around the room. I'm so excited! And I think I've decided how I'm doing my hair and makeup. I'm doing both myself because I'm pretty good at both of those things - it's not rocket science x]

I'm going to curl my hair and pin the sides back, similar to Bella's prom hairstyle in Twilight, but that's not why I chose to do it that way. I have a picture of the hairstyle on me, but I haven't quite perfected it yet. I'll post it anyway:


That's my hair curled, but without the sides pinned back.


With the sides pinned back.

Let me know what you think!

As for my makeup, I don't have a picture yet, but what I plan to do is wear some individual lashes (to make mine look a little longer) and black liquid eyeliner. Since my dress is white, I can go with any colour of eyeshadow. I'll probably go with purple and wear purple nail polish on my fingers & toes. If not purple, then definitely a shimmery champagne colour.

I can't wait to get my dress back from getting altered - as soon as I do, I'll post some pictures!

The next thing I want to talk about is my progress with Boot Camp. So far I've lost 13lbs - I just weighed myself this morning.

And here's a picture I took of myself yesterday. I sent it to my friend because I wore it to a school performance last night, and I'll most likely wear it to afterprom (minus the heels x]) so I was wondering what she thought of it.



P.S. I haven't been able to fit into that skirt in over a year :)

I just had my measurements done for the halfway mark of my Boot Camp, so here's how much I've lost:

Weight: Lost 9.5lbs
Body Fat %: Down 1.1%
BMI: Down 0.9

Chest: Lost 2"
Stomach: Lost 1 1/2"
Waist: Lost 2 1/4"
Hips: Lost 3 1/2"

And that's after only FOUR weeks! I've still got 4 weeks left. I'm really excited to see my final results. I'll definitely keep you posted.

The next thing I wanted to talk about was my prom, which is on June 12th! I found my dress a few weeks ago and I just went in the other day to have it altered. It's exactly what I wanted too! It was the 4th dress I tried on - I thought it was so crazy that the first store I went to had the perfect dress. I still have to buy my prom ticket ($35) and after-prom ticket ($10). I'm probably going to do my own hair and makeup, or I'll ask my mom's best friend (who has been doing my hair my whole life) to do my hair and I'll pay her later.

Anyways, I've gotta go to Boot Camp now! Bye! :)

I have lost 10lbs in 8 days. Not even kidding.

My mom's fiance is a personal trainer, and he just recently quit working at the gym he was employed at and now he's started his own Boot Camp. I have been doing it for 8 days (only 3 of those days were Boot Camp days - the rest, I didn't exercise much except walking) and I just weighed myself tonight. Down 10lbs already! Yesterday I weighed myself as well, and I was down 7lbs in 7 days. So in the last 24 hours or so, I've lost 3 lbs

I'm really excited. I've noticed a difference in my energy, and my sleep. I just feel so much better, since I've been eating properly (20-25g carbs/meal, 15-20g protein/mean, less than 9g fat/meal) and exercising a lot.

We have to journal everything we eat and all of our exercise, and our thoughts. I think the journal has definitely helped keep me motivated to eat right because I don't want to write down something unhealthy, even though no one else is going to see it, I'll still feel guilty if I write it down.

The Boot Camp is 8 weeks long, ending about a week after my prom, so it's perfect timing! I bought my prom dress a few days ago, but I'm going to have it altered in about 3 weeks.

Anyways, it's getting late and I have to work at 8am so that's all for now!

I just made over 80 lucky paper stars.

I'll post a tutorial on how to make them later.
