I'm off hiatus Cloudies! WOOOT.

Finally finally, i have the will power to blog~

Lemme update you. 
SCAD is amazing. (The Trustees theater)
















The food is fantasmic!

This is beef stew from Bistro night. YUM. They have Bon Apetit caterers, not that sodexco bull crap they used to serve. All natrual and fresh ingredients, all cooked, not frozen. It's SPLENDID.

 

    The education is tops, but lemme tell you, art school is no joke. I kinda knew that, but you just don't KNOW until you're there. The talent bar is raised so high, you might end up being discouraged, but you have to remeber that you're at college to learn!

This is my final exam for Drawing 1:

          I barely made any friends because my time management was so terrible, and i'm really shy and quiet when i don't know anybody.
But, there were cool events that happened at scad where you could dress up and you just had fun!
The first was The Gender Bender Ball, which was hosted by The Queers & Allies Club at SCAD where you dressed up in the opposite gender or any costume you wanted. I turned into ashton, and i never knew it took so much makeup to turn into a boy! ;-; SO MUCH MAKEUP:

All my friends disapproved. lol
And we had the Masquarade Ball, which was like a SCAD prom near halloween and so i dressed up as a Zombie using toliet paper, glue, fake blood and eyeshadow. lol I might make a youtube video on this!

But~

My first college quarter is finished! :D
I'm so extra happy! But this break is so extra long and i'm SO bored.

I saw my mommy after her cancer surgery, and she looked feeble at first, she had a tube and everything, but now she's herself again and i can actually have proper conversations with her. She lost 'bout 30 pounds since and it's very noticeable!

Speaking of losing weight:

Over break (which was since Nov,15th), i think i lost 20 pounds, or so the scale says.

What's my secret?

Getting addicted to Eden Eternal (if you play, i'm MilkshakeCreme on diamond server!)
then forgetting to eat, sleep, shower, or take care of myself.

And that means now i cant eat alot at one time, and i got pimples.
on the bright side, i dont have to wiggle in my clothes no more. lol

All i did was eat junk and play video games. But my body is weird when it comes to losing weight, so i really don't reccomend you trying this.

Welp, i feel this post is long enough lol, so i'm going to stop here. LOVE YA CLOUDIES! :D

Review: Maybelline's Dream Bouncy Blush.




Hola Cloudies!
It's my birthday! I'm 18!
Enough about that...

     I just uploaded my little awkward review for Maybelline's Dream Bouncy blush, and it's really long, i know....i just didn't know how to cut it down. My mouth is as big as my heart. ;O;

And my heart is big ladies. Hit me up if you're interested. ;D

Just kidding! (sorta.)

  I bought this naughty boy from Rite aid this week for like, $7.45.
   No, I do not find that cheap at all. It's hard out here for a pimp and it was kinda painful because the product is like...tiny.

But i really had to try it.  I bought it in Peach Satin yesterday because i have dreams that one day, coral/peachy colors would look good on me.

Today, i bought Hot Tamale and all the rest of Maybelline goodies. lol

  Because i am a woman of color (tee-hee) I was skeptical that this product would even show up on my skin and if it did, it would appear ashy and weird.

I was pleasantly surprised. This product showed up nicely on my skin, and it was blendable.

Ratings:
Packaging- 5/5
Consistency- 3/5
Diversity- 1/5
Ease-5/5
Survival-2/5
Price: $$
Color payoff- 2/5

Overall: 3/5 Sour Clowd droplets.







This product is satisfactory, I am happy with it. Big improvements are needed still.

I can't wait to get it in Plum Wine. But that's after y'know..i get some bank. ^^;

Here are some sexy swatches. (Don't get too excited.)
Left is Hot Tamale, Right is Peach Satin.

This color is supposed to be peachy..but it really looks like a normal fushia color on me. Idk, i guess my skin fought the color. lol

Review: Glade Expressions collections



Hey Cloudies!


       Mkay, as a Bzz agent, I received this wonderful product for free. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I have the Glade Expressions starter kit in Fresh Linen. 

It is like a fresh puff of wonderful every time i go into the same room...it's amazing! 

I highly will recommend this product to ANYONE. It is perfect for dorm rooms. And i will be buying this again. 




I'm in so much trouble.

Hey Cloudies,
 
   The Sour Clowd is actually very sour...
 
I don't know if i'm going to college or not...

  Nobody will give me a loan. My mom was rejected from any loans at all. I had to beg on all fours to get my dad to agree to cosigning, but we tried Sallie Mae and that harlet didn't accept my daddy's credit.

I've been crying every single day since the trouble started. And what makes it worse is that i'm supposed be at college this time, 3 days from now on my birthday September the 7th.

  My body has been violently reacting to the stress. I have terrible acne, my stomach is having a hard time digesting food, i have these sharp bipolar headaches...I'm afraid that if i don't go to college, i'm going to develop a serious depression. I've never been so scared for my health before.

Some of ya'll are just like "it's just a year off. You'll be fine."

I wish i could say that too, but no, I won't be fine.
My mom just found out she had cancer. earlier this year, my dad had cancer, but that was taken care of.
She'll be okay tho, just like my dad. :)

But, now my mom has to get surgery that leaves her in the hospital for a long time and then she has a 6 month recovery time. Although I have faith that her condition is going to get better, Where does that leave me?
How am I gonna get to work?
I need a car, and a licence, and with the surgery costs, I can't get one.
There will be no money to feed me or tend to my needs barely at all.
I can no longer stand to put up with my sister because she's a 20 year old pathological liar & cleptomaniac (I'm not kidding. She even has had therapy.) My parents understand. So i would need an apartment or somewhere to live. Who is paying for that???

See my dilemma? And i only have 3 days to resolve it. Cloudies, i'm terrified of what my future has in store for me.

Reading this makes me realize what kind of conundrum i'm in. I trust that God has my back tho.

 Please Cloudies, can i have your prayers tonight?

REVIEW: Unreal - Unjunked



     Hey cloudies! I just tried some candy from UNREAL for a review because i'm also a Bzz Agent. The sent me a free coupon for the candy, and 5 bogo coupons.

   I tried this in Unreal 8, (the purple one) and i had higher hopes for this product. It was dry, sweet in areas that i did not want and just tasted too healthy and un delicious.

When i eat junk food, i wanna eat JUNK. Otherwise i'll just avoid it all together. This product is only 70 calories less than snikers, so i'd eat a snickers before i'd eat this healthy alternative.

The bar is ok tasting, just how you would expect a generic brand would taste like.
Rating, 3/5

Wahhh~ awesome sauce giveaway!

Look at all these Goodies!

  One day, i'll be able to have a give away just like this. *sigh*
But for now, i'm going to try to win it and you should too. This has like all the girl essentials for like, going to college which i am.

Mom is having major surgery from cancer and dad who just survived cancer has to stop working to help her for 6 months, so for that amount of time, i'm dirt poor and sad. Boo. But i'm sure they will be okay. Hopefully. :(

On the bright side, i'll be having a job at college and will be able to support myself a little bit better.

Anywho,
Follow her, she's awesome-ness regardless if you win or not, and good luck cloudies! :D

So..I'm going vegan.



       I'm doing it because i did a little research on my normal diet, and found the results..well true.

  •  Because of my blood type (A+) , meat doesn't digest too well, and i realized that, well..it doesn't. Although chicken doesn't really do anything bad to me, i should just cut it out anyway. 
  • I'm lactose intolerant, and i keep eating ice cream and milk and i continue to have these terrible stomach aches that are simply unbearable. It feels like childbirth.
  • I hate eggs, and honey.
  •  Other stuff that is made with animal stuff but doesn't contain it, i don't care about. This isn't for the animals or anything. Expecially stuff that i don't eat.
  • Anything with lactose or like animal fat or animal product in it, i wont eat because..well, it's like meat. 
  • I'm still deciding on a cheat days. for right now it's the weekend. Not Sunday. I'm trying to ease myself in for now because i'm just starting. Also to get my body used to the change. This is a big transition but i will always challenge myself.

      
 I'm just tired of feeling tired and in pain all the time. I wanna feel good, and lose weight. Simply.

I'm starving tho, because there aren't any choices at home..Poo. College, come quickly!

Did you know Jenna Marbles has a vegan diet?

Hiatus alert & diet update. + Nature's bounty HSN reveiw


  Hey lovlies!

   Well I know its been a while since I posted...and that's because I decided to take a small hiatus until school started so it can be the college blog that I wanted it to be. School starts directly on my birthday(09/07/94), and I hope I get my roommates to help me write my next blog post!*excited* There hasn't been too much of things that happened to me since ya last saw me except that I cut all my hair off.

Yup, it's all gone.

  I will post pics right after I announce that I cheated so freaking much on that diet. I didn't even last one day. SMH I think I have an addiction to food. -____- So much for being fit for scad.
*first world problems*

 Lately i have been taking these pills:
(They are amazin'.)

    In order to get my long luxurious mane that I never actually had back along with the added bonus of skin and nail enhancement. (allthough I don't really need the nail part..I got strong healthy claws already. ^_^;)

    Lemme tell you, these made my hair grow back some ever since I used it. I've been using it for like two weeks and I can already notice a difference in my hair's thickness and I can see little disobeying strands of hair that stick out my boycut lol. My skin, which is plagued by seborrheic Dermatitis, has gotten clearer and my teen acne has reduced although it wasn't very prominant in the first place.

As for my nails....nothing. lol well, I couldn't notice a difference, but you might.

Beware that if you stop taking these, your skin will basically throw a tantrum at you and you'll start to get a temporary case of acne and if you're like me, your skin condition will fight you too. This week I stopped taking them because I wasn't eating very often and you are supposed to take them with food, so I started getting migraines and flare ups. It's a NO NO to skip taking them, and it's also a NO NO to not take them with food.

You will be hungry all the time, as these increase metabolism as well. ME HUNGRY RIGHT NOW AS ME TYPE BLOG ME NEED FOOD ME HUNGRY

Anywho, for those who were like: JUST SHUT UP AND SHOW ME THE PICTURES BALD FATTY!

Well.....here. Meanie. ;__;




(Oops..clicked on my porn file by mistake. ;D)





Well, That's all for now..Because nobody even reads my blog anyway....lol

BYE CLOUDIESSS~ SEE YA IN SEPTIEMBRE!

2 months, BIG change.

  Hey cloudies!,

    Today will be a very important topic for me. I am trying to lose at least 50 pounds and grow my hair at least 5 inches and get healthier skin before I go out into the college world.

BUT I ONLY GOT 2 MONTHS!
Da Da Dunnnn~<3

 That's okay, because I plan to have positive thinking the entire time!

I am going on a "Ashley" diet and excersise regimen , which means:
  •  NO candy
  •  NO soda
  •  NO fast food 
  •  NO meal more than 400 Calories
  •  1200 calories per day or less ( Because truthfully I don't eat that much a day anyway if it's not junk) 
  •  ONLY DRINK WATER OR SUGARLESS GREEN TEA
  • Go outside and walk for 1 hour, Jog for 10 minutes
  • Dance for 30 minutes before bed.
  • Don't eat after 7pm
  • Eat 3 meals a day. 7am-breakfast 12pm-lunch 4pm-dinner
  • Can chew sugarless gum for cravings but sparingly. suck on ice instead.
  • Sleep a full 8 hours. Bedtime is 10pm.
 Ahh! I hope I can do it!

I will be doing it from now until September the 7th, which is my birthday.


Currently i'm 192.5 pounds, which is not all to gross, but I was a solid 200 pounds when summer started. IDEK how I lost 8 pounds from sitting around eating junk all day, but I definitely will not be looking that gift horse in the mouth!

My true goal weight is 120 pounds, but I'm shooting for 130-40 for safety.

For my hair, I'm going to be doing this daily treatment:

And this hair mask every 2 days to save product.
mix it in a bowl, leave in like 4 hours:

  • Milk (provides Vitamin D)
  • Orange Juice ( Vitamin C)
  • Flour ( Vitamin E)
  • Mayonnaise (Essential nutrients)
  • Peanut butter 


I'm going to be using my medication for my Seborrhic Dermatitis too, so idek if that effects anything.
Right now i'm going to iron my hair and trim it, because I can't trim it without it being straight.

Well, I will keep you posted on weekly updates! And you are free to try it with me!
Wish my good luck cloudies!

Puckering on cloud 9,

Happy 4th of July Cloudies!

   I hope yours was way more eventful than mine. I was at a bbq and the food was great, but all i did was sit in a rolling chair in the dark texting my boyfriend while overhearing the adults talk about a penis's size in every season.
Not even in the mood for fireworks.
But i did have a fantabulous look for the occasion though.

Terrible camera, but i had basically the same look as this girl except i had a metallic turquoise eyeliner to replace the blue, and that same eyeliner lined my bottom lid because i didn't have white eyeliner.(I lost mines!). I had Maybelline's baby lips in cherry Me on and as you can see i had no foundation or concealer on.

Well, i'm itchy , because i get really itchy when i'm tired, so i'm gonna end here today.

Tell me about your 4th of july!

Welcome to SourClowd, a new College Beauty and fashion blog!


Welcome to my blog, a soon to be hotspot for beauty, fashion and other goodies!

My name is Ashley Scott, a upcoming SCAD Savannah college freshman. I am currently 17 until my birthday, which is September 7th . I am going to be majoring in Illustration. Woot!
AHH~ i'm so excited! = w =

Kay, i am like a huge Japanese culture enthusiast and the reason being is because they have really adorable fashion and useful makeup products. They are also a very entertaining people. I am also a full fledged otaku, and i draw my very own.

Contrary to this blog, my favorite color is actually green. I also like green animals such as turtles and other stuff...but enough about me!

This blog will have reviews, college drama, tips & tricks, giveaways and ladida...
Seriously, this is going to be the best thing since..well...sliced bread?

I'm going to start the blog with a little bit more about myself and reviews on products that i already have been using.
I really look forward to the success and wonderful people i get to meet in the future.
The hard part was over right? The actual layout. Haha, this took me forever believe it or not. I'm itching to make my first product reveiw!

I will try to blog everyday, but if i can't, i will at least blog twice a week and expect it to be Wendsday or  Tuesday in the afternoon.

Please join the site and invite your friends! Each member benefits me greatly for college and please click on the Ads~ you don't have to buy anything.

You can donate, but would kinda be odd if ya do. I'm not looking out to take from my readers nor do i want to. but if you feel like being generous, clicking a ad would do just as great for me.

Ahoy! <3
