Hello, all. It seems like lately there have been a lot of things that I’m loving and today I plan to share them with you (in no particular order).
* The Olympics.
Yes, I’m that person. I cry every time they do a medal ceremony. I tear up at all the commercials with the Olympians as little kids. I spend a lot of time thinking, “Dude. All men should look like SWIMMERS.” So, yeah, the Olympics are totally doing it for me!
* It’s a 10 Plus Keratin shampoo and conditioner
It’s no secret that I’ve been having a VERY BAD HAIR YEAR.
But last time I was at the hairdresser he recommended I give this stuff and try and whoa. It. Is. Awesome. I’ve been using it off and on with my old stuff and on the days when I use it I can tell SUCH a difference. So, yeah, highly recommend.
* My new light pink nailpolish with the little glittery bits in it.
Perhaps the girliest thing…ever.
* My waterproof iPhone case.
Sure, I haven’t tested it…yet. But I will. I’m certain. And until then it’s nice to go through life with at least the illusion of waterproofness.
* Expo whiteboard cleaning wipes.
My whiteboards are clean! Really clean! No phantom marks or streaks. It is a whiteboard miracle.
*Biggie
Biggie is the name my nieces have given to this thing. Frontgate calls it the world’s greatest pool float and I believe them. Expensive? Yes. But I think it’s going to last for years and it is perhaps the most comfortable thing on earth.
And that’s it, gang. Just a few of the things that I’m really enjoying this summer. What about you?
Ally
I am enjoying summer, big time. Got my first job, finally got caught up on GG1-5. Can’t wait for number 6!
I cant wait either].. literally
I’m so with you on the Olympics! Although the volleyball guys looks pretty nice too. 😉
And of course, gold medal gymnastics womens team final! Eeee! <3
Vixen
The volleyball guys are pretty hot…
I love the volleyball guys so much!!
🙂
Ditto! I m in LOVE with the olypmics… one day I watched for OVER twelve hours! I think ally forgot to mention that she is loving writting GG6!! Thanks ally! Love hearing from you!
~Ally Cat
Ditto. Any event where guys are shirtless is amazing!
I agree with that!!!
LOL 🙂
Omg we are such girls
Dude, volleyball guys are hot! (and muscular) They remind me of what Zach is in my head
OMG I do the same thing when I watch the Olympics!!!!!!! I think i’ve cried at least 15 times during the Olympics. I also love my own sparkly pink nail polish!!!!!!!!
So with you on the Olympics! It’s amazing to watch.
Definitely enjoying summer. I went to a beach for the first time EVER! It was amazing.
OMG i love watching the Olympics! It’s really cool to see all thoughs people so amazing things!! And yes the swimmers are pretty hot lol and the volleyball players too! =D My summer has been AWESOME!!!! Glad yours is ally =D
~Kylie~
Wow you’ve only gone to the beach once before? I practically live at the beach!!!!!
Ok i havnt done much but i can say that i do love 2 things: 1: GALLAGHER GIRLS!!!!! READ THE BOOKS SSSOO MANY TIMES!!!! and 2: HEIST SCIOTEY!!!!! (Idk if i spelled that rite? Lol!!!)
Hey, we may not be cheering for the same team, but I do love the Olympics. In fact, as I’m typing this, I’m watching U.S.A vs. China in woman’s volleyball (third set/ 6 to 6. . . make that 7). I have my first job standing beside a conveyer belt for hours on end picking off slugs, bugs and mouldy things, and reading my heart out. I’ve been sleeping from 12:30 am to 12pm. And that’s my summer. Have a great one Ally!
Ally! I have been watching sooooo much of the Olympics and yes, I have cried. In fact, I’m pretty sure I’m going to cry when it’s all over. All of the things on your list sounds great. I might have to try some that shampoo out (my hair can be crazy). My summer has been amazing. My mother and I read all of the Gallagher Books already (me for the third time and her for the first). She loved the books and I’m glad I finally got to share them with her. I’ve told her soooo much them and now she finally understands what I was talking about. Thanks Ally!
P.S.: I’m not going to say my exacte age, but I’m not 11or 12 (I’m still a teen though). Some may say I’m a little old for your books, but although I love to read books that have weight and value… I also love something light hearted and airy so thank you for giving that. I just wanted you to know that 😀
I was sooo happy when I finally got my mom to read the gallagher girls! So I know the feeling 🙂 still working on the heist society though……
Definitely White Collar’s new episodes!!!
YES!!!! I missed the last one though:( im also loving Alphas, Covert Affairs, Burn Notice, Rizzoli & Isles:) oh and Royal Pains (which i am currently watching:))
OMG YES!!!! I LOVE NIEL SOOOOO MUCH!!!!! im addicted to that and covert affairs and royal pains too!!! such awesome shows <3
i LOVE alphas and covert affairs.my sister and me watch it! love your books ally!!!!!!
{awsomeness}
I love the Olympics! It is amazing! I cry when I see the teenagers there, I think it is just so amazing! And the pool float! I have one too! It floated down our lake and no one claimed it so now we have it! I LOVE it!
Gabby
I love the olympics too!! I can’t help but stare at the boys muscels
Same here! but I like looking at thier abs
I like The Olympics. GO PHELPS!!! um enjoying not having school and being done with my summer reading, so i could reread the GG series. And having movie marathons. Happy Summer!
I love the olimpics but at the moment Australia isn’t doing very well! (I live in Australia)!
Aussie gallagher girl:)
I live in Australia too! and I can agree with you on that, Australia at the moment isn’t doing so well, but oh well looking on the bright side you get to stare at guys abs when they take their shirts off! 🙂
Things I love:
-Olympics
-gymnastics
-muzic
-books
I totaly see what you mean about the Olympics. I mean, seriously, all guys should look like Ryan Lochte. Not even kidding.
So true so true!
Oh yes
But gymnastic guys are cool too. I mean, they may be short, but they’ve got loads of muscle!!!!!!!!! I mean that just make up for their height.
Okay whats up with pepper crushing on Ryan lochte? ?? I just don’t get it…
*people
Why???
Ryan Lochte is hot… nuff said
Ya i meant why not:)
Ditto Natalie, ditto.
Enjoying my summer, reading tons of books and just th other day I went into the city to the Discovery Times Museum with my cousin and sister. It was so fun. We went to the Spy Exhibit of course, and had to navigate our way through a Lazer Maze. (And of course we stopped at the American Girl Place, how could we not? even if we are all teenagers and our excuse was because my 8 year old sister wanted to go, we had a blast!)
I agree with you all. The Olympics are awesome <3 I agree with your comment about the swimmers. HOT!! I have loved going swimming over the summer. I have always loved swimming. I have also liked watching the gymnastics. GO USA!!!!!
The olympics, books, swimming, my new red jeans, everything about everything, I’m just loving this summer.
i get bad hair days all the time, becuz my hair is the curly type. i think pink nailpolish is fine plus it looks better when u decorate it with nail art. i get to spend 3 weeks with my aunt and i am havin so much fun!!!! im gonna order ur 5th gg book today and i cant wait to read it!!!!
I know! Australia isn’t going so well…..
I hope we get more metals….
We who are inn Australia are so not in Hoildays!!!
We are at school in the classroom…. right now I’m in Science. GTG Teacher is comming this way.
PS. Can’t wait for the next hoilday’s 🙂
Okay well my summer has been crazy!!! I have had so much to do. I love watching the Olympics I really like swimming and gymnastics but I have had a hard time finding time to watch!!!(mostly late at night) I have had a play I was in (busy with that because I was Cinderella the Cinderella) and I have done golf camp with a bunch of my bet buds! I went to my grandmas for a week to hang out with her. And I am going to north Dakota and I have had horse back ridding and I just found out next summer I get to go to New York City with dance and I have always wanted to go there so thats just part of my summer so far 🙂
Love y’all
Lexa
This summer I’m really loving Rookie Blue….. the T.V. show. Also, re-reading Gallagher Girls, Harry Potter, Sarah Dessen and Twilight.
OMG!!! I love harry potter and Gallgher Girls and Twilight!!!!!!!
I love Harry Potter and Twilight too!. Oh and of course Gallagher Girls. Sarah Dessen is quite a good author, Just Listen is good!!!!!. I love Twilight like mad!!!, Team Jacob, :D.
I totally love this new nail polish, purple with chunks of gold glitter, so I will agree with how amazing nail polish can make a girl’s summer. Oh my god I am loving the Olympics! I’m a little bummed out because I’m Canadian and we haven’t been doing to well at the summer games… Oh well, I love seeing the other teams too! Can’t even pick a fav in the opening ceremonies!!
Ally, a tip for testing waterproofness is try lining the inside of case with paper then dunk it in water and see if the paper stays dry, that way you don’t ruin your phone. Hope this helps!
I’m loving the olympics too. But all men should be built like gymnasts. Yum.
Exactly!!
I LOVE the Olympics!! The swimmers are awesome, but I love seeing the gymnastics. When I see them, I just think, “Wow, they can twist and fly through the air and stick the landing while I can barely touch my toes.”
USA!! Loved the women’s gymnastics final! So happy for them. Can’t wait for GG 6 and the new Heist Society!!
hey yes i am so so happy for the USA girls gymnastics!!!
Haha LOL my brother is probably going to go to the 2020 Olympics with fencing!! Love u bro!!
Watched the gymnastics, and I’m a dancer so I cando pretty creepy stuff, but man!! It’s just like.. THEY HAVE NO BONES IN THEIR BACK!!! I have a friend like that!!
P.S I talk WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much!!
Oh. Also for me it’s winter:I
I am a dancer too!!!!!!!!!! But yes, its like the gymnasts can fly
Haha LOL yeah
Sounds like your nail polish is extremely girly. I got a peticure, and my nails are painted a sea foam color, and have little musical notes on them! It’s so cool!
This summer i went to New York for the first time and i went to watch The Amazing Spiderman and The Dark Night Rises and they were both so cool and i have very bad hair days all the time.My summer has been very nice and i cant wait to read GG6 and i lik the show Trust us with your life and evryone have a good day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!And one more thing anybody know what My chemical romance,30 seconds to mars,or The Cure is?(The Cure is kinda old )
I saw the dark knight rises and it was pretty amazing. I’ve heard of my chemical romance but i don’t listen to their music, I have a 30 seconds to mars cd on my iPod, and I have a song by the Cure on my iPod too( it’s friday, i’m in love). So someone knows =)
Omg that si so cool i have 3 cds of My chemical romance and Beautiful lie (30stm)and Greatest hits (the cure)wich has friday im in love and my chemical romance their are some songs that i dont like that much but their pretty good.But finally someone knows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Things I’m loving:
– ICE CREAM
– Christian Historical Fiction Romance books. My favorite 🙂
– ……ICE CREAM!!!!
– Synchronized Diving in the Olympics–SO COOL!!
– The smell of flowers and spring and summer and freshly cut grass
– Gallagher Girls and Heist Society!!!!!!!!!!!! Already read them all, but I decided to add them to the list anyways 🙂
I love the olymipcs!! I’ve watched it every night it came on from 8-12!! my favorite is the gymnastics! poor jordyn:(
GO USA!!! haha 🙂
Ya, but i hate how the news focuses on the dissapointment that she feels, istead of the joy ally must feel for doing somthing no one thought she could.
Yeah, the other girls who didn’t make the All-around probably felt just as bad as Jordyn, yet she gets all of the attention. Not that I’m blaming her for crying (I felt bad for her too), just that I think the news is making too big of a deal about it.
It’s so stupid jordyn didn’t make it. It should be the top 24 gymnasts, because the olympics are supposed to be for the best. If the best were all from the US, China, and Russia then they all should have been in the all around competition. Jordyn totally should have been in it.
Oh my gosh I TOTALLY agree with the swimmers thing! (Tom Daley is so hot!) The new Batman was the most awesome thing ever. I actually got some new nail polish thats blue-green for when I get back to school (26 days)! And as for music I just really really cannot get over Lana Del Rey because she’s like perfect in every way.
Oh yeah and also I’m SO excited for HS3! But I have to ask… in the cover, is that Hale in her glasses? Ahh!
Summer was fun, but now school must begin! And I’m taking advanced classes this year so I’m actually excited for that… (I know I’m a nerd…)
Alright well i talk too much. Love yaa! Bye 😀
Me 2 but i hav to say 1 thing: the man on the cover cant be hale. Hale is the same age as kat 16. The man on the cover is to old. I STILL LOVE. Oh and (sorry to all the people who havnt read the second heist book) I CANT BELIVE KAT KISSES HALE BUT HALE DOESNT KISS HER BACK CULAUSE LIKE WE ALLKNOW HE LIKES HER!!! Y DIDNT HE KISSHER BACK?!?!?!?!?!? ALLY PPLLLEEEAASSEEE TELL US WE FIND OUT IN THE THRID BOOK!! (do we find out why he doesnt kiss her book three????)
You are so freaking lucky I get back to skool in exactly a 6 days!); I’ll be in sixth grade so whoopee !!!!!! Not really lol but seriously we have to start soooooo early
I hope its not hale! I thought it was supposed to be he dad before someone told me it was hale….
Umm, excuse me? In the first book it says that Hale looked older than 16. We never get an exact age. Just thought I’d let you know.
Oki lied it might be hale! AAAAAHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m pretty sure it’s Hale. I read it somewhere……..can’t remember where.
It’s Hale… she was doing this Q&A thing on twitter and someone asked her that 🙂
It is him
Totally agree with you on the Olympics!
Can’t wait for Heist Society 3!
Ya i agree with the batman thing it was the best and swimmers are so hot!!But i like My Chemical Romance,30 second to mars and The Cure!!
RYAN LOCHTE !!!!!!!(: he’s pretty hot ! God, all those people have out of control muscle ! Lol it is insane what these people can do ! I love gymnastics!!! I’m not so great at it but all my friends see me doing it so guess that’s enough ! I’m so glad gabby don’t-know-her-last-name won the all around she is so talented!(:
Gabby Douglas
When I picture Zach now I see Ryan Lochte!! He is sooooooooooo hot!!! And yes I’m jealous of the gymnasts :)(who isn’t?)
Im a swimmer! My practices are 2 hours every weekday in the summer and an hour and a half in the winter on Thursday we all got together at our rec center at 5:15 in the morning to watch 15 year old Katie ledeckie swim the 800 free cuz she’s from my swim club it was a ton of fun!
I have a connection to a swimmer too!!!!!!!! My orthodontist is Missy Franklins orthodontist!!!!!!
I have definitly been enjoying the olympics-gym is the best!! But I may be a bit biased as I am a gymnast…haha And I’m in 2 plays (seussical-a show which takes all of Dr. Seuss’s books and puts them to music all tied together in one story, and it’s AMAZING. And a fundraiser event for my choir which wants to go to New York on tour next year-So basically a bunch of musical numbers from variouse plays-Once Upon A Mattress, Little Shope Of Horrors, Annie, etc.(:) And I’m going to start a Shakespear intensive class soon, and am looking into getting a job as a waitress at a retirement home, and I have been LOVING HAming a new niece-She’s exactly 1 month old today!!(:
Hey im in choir and New York is very nice i hope your fundraiser gose good and my sister is having a baby today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!How cool is that!!
I love reading all of your teen books from all of GG books to all of the Heist Society books!
michael phelps and ryan lochte are the hottest people ever…..
OMG!!!!!! I LOVE MICHAEL PHELPS and ryan lochte (but michael is wwwaaayyy better!!!!!!!!!!)
We have one of the “biggies” for our pool. It is the most amazing thing ever!! And we’ve had it for a couple of years. I love mine, and it’s totally worth it.
Oh my Gosh, the Olympics are AWESOME!!!!. I love watching the tennis, Djokovic, Nishikori, Sharapova, The Williams, Federer, so I am NOT very happy that Murray won Gold Medal since I um don’t like him. And that Djokovic lost against Del Potro for bronze. Awesome for Serena Williams though, she played against Sharapova and I was like Aw my 2 fave players!!. Plus they kept making noises at each other, it was like Sharapova doing a shriek screech and Serena making a “UUGH” noise, ahaha, lol. I love watching the diving too, GO TOM DALEY!!!. :D. Gymnastics is awesome too. It’s so cool that the Olympics are in London!!!!!!!. I mean, it’s unlikely the Olympics will be hosted in Great Britain again, while the peeps who have seen it like this year again. OK, thats just confusing. Argh, and Italy lost against Russia in Volleyball. Awwwww. But Japan is still in the women and men’s footie! Yeaaaaah. Ooooh! Tom Daley is diving today, good luck, Tom!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
GallagherGirl_BlackthorneBoy
I LOVE THE OLYMPICS! AHAHAHAH!
OK, Football for men’s is 10/8/12 against korea, for bronze. :). And the women’s finished a couple hours ago and we lost to U.S.A. I was so irratated though, I mean, U.S.A. is awesome, and it’s like so cool, but the U.S.A. should have gotten 2 penalties which the referee seemed to have missed. (Hey, its not just me saying that, the commentators said so too). And apparantly this was U.S.A.’s revenge for Japan winning the world cup. Well, c’mon japan, and I am SO looking forward to the world cup!!!!!. Go Nakeshiko Japan <3 <3 <3. You guys rock, and well done for winning silver. :D. Must say, I'm not to keen on that girl from the U,S.A., Morgan (Oooh she has the same surname as Cammie) 'cause she keeps like kicking Japan's players. :(. Man, that match U,S,A, against Canada was eh pretty rough. Kinda wanted it to go to penalities, but y'know. Italy are really good at fencing :), SO pleased to see us winning!!!!!!!. The Olympics end on Sunday……:(. Oh well. Bring it on, 2014 world cup!!!!!. JMO, though!!!!
GallagherGirl_BlackthorneBoy.
Ahahahha!. Lol!!!!!.
My summer has been pretty good. I have been watching tv and sleeping in and eating lunch instead of breakfast. Ive also been to the movies and had a great time. Im loving summer. But i go to High school this Wednesday. Im going to be a freshmen. I am also loving my nail polish. Its those ones that look like stickers. lol 🙂
Haha im a girl… but im in the pool all the time on the outskirts of atlanta and i wish they would two all. Hay my name is allie2 lol
I am very much enjoying my summer. Just spent a week at my Grandma’s and hanging out at the river all day…everyday. Got a tan. Had tons of fun tubing. Read lots of books. Have a babysitting gig that pays quite well and the kids are good. Watched the Olympics. Agree about the swimmers…all the way. I was cheering for Ryan Lochte as soon as he came on my screen. And the rest of USA as well. So proud of our women’s gymnast team. Watched Season 4 of Leverage on our 6 hour car trip. A total of 12 hours cooped up in a car with Tv shows, a pillow, and a bag of books. Awesome. Watched Burn Notice and White Collar. Yeah, Life is good.
Lucky, I’ve been wanting to watch Leverage for a while and there’s this channel that runs reruns, but it’s never on when I’m watching it, I just finished watching a commercial for the episode it’s showing tomorrow. You sound like you’re having a lot of fun.
Yeah, that TV channel is annoying….same here. I always see the commercial for the next one. I just never manage to actually watch it. But yeah, I have been having a lot of fun. Thanks.
I stayed up until 1 last night watching it because it was on!
Good for you ! Do you remember what the episodes were about or what season?
It was first season episodes 4-9 and then I saw more of it later in the week and it was the last couple of episodes. I love leverage. Parker is hysterical. My family has been quoting the show all week.
I was stuck in a bus for 2 days and we had to sleep in it but it was kinda fun because my freinds were their!!!
Oh, and joined Pottermore. Go Ravenclaw!!!!!
Oh yea! Love potter! But im more griffindor!!!!
I love Harry Potter, one of the best series ever!
GrYffindor 🙂
Oh yea! GRYFFINDOR!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Gryffindor too. Mostly because Hermione and Neville and Luna were in it……..But Ravenclaw is my house and I love it! Also, The Sorting Hat had a hatstall whilst sorting Hermione. he couldn’t decide whether to sort her into Ravenclaw or Gryffindor.
Ryan Lochte = that man is looking fine.
True that.
