Welcome to my blog about youth! I’m here to show you that staying young is the key to living a happy life.
I’ve always been fascinated by how people stay young, so after years of self-experimentation I decided to start this blog. I’ll be posting updates every Wednesday on my journey towards the fountain of youth.
Staying young is the key to living a happy life.
There are a couple of ways that you can stay young!
1. Eat healthy and exercise
2. Stay positive
3. Be around other people
4. Interact with animals and nature
5. Do something every day that makes you happy!
If you do this, soon you will feel very young indeed!
As a child I always loved to dress up as Wednesday Addams for Halloween. As I got older, I realized the character of Wednesday Addams was more than just a costume. The costume was a symbol of my soul.
I am an addict. I am addicted to being young and it is one addiction that I don’t want to grow out of.
The youthful spirit is something that we all possess but lose touch with as we get older. You can see it on the faces of children, the way they are so in awe of everything around them, the way they are so playful and imaginative. We lose that sense of wonder and pure joy as we get older. Monday through Friday we go through the motions, counting down until the weekend when we can enjoy ourselves again. Then Saturday comes and goes in a blur and before you know it, it’s Monday morning again and you’re back at square one – stuck in your routine and feeling like you’re missing out on life.
If there is one thing that will keep you forever young, it’s embracing life with passion every day. If you wake up excited about what the day holds for you instead of dreading your daily routine, then you will live a much happier life!
I’ve been watching The Addams Family for years on TV, and it never ceases to amaze me how young Wednesday Addams looks. I’ve decided to do some research and find out what her secret is.
The first thing I did was google “How old is Wednesday Addams?”. She is only 9 years old! This can’t be true, she looks at least 21. Maybe I should have done research before I started writing this blog…
After doing more research, it turns out that the actress who plays her, Christina Ricci is only 16! Wow, I should really stop researching now and get back to writing my blog. This topic is harder than I thought it would be.
I started thinking about how they could make a 16 year old look like 9. Then I realised it was probably because of the clothes she wears. She always wears black dresses with white collars and cuffs. That must be the secret!
The next day after a lot of thinking about how to dress to stay young, I finally decided on a plan: wear white socks and shoes with black trousers and a black shirt. It was the best plan ever!
Wednesday Addams is the character that everyone who has seen The Addams Family movies, or watched the television show, knows and loves.
The reason why we all love Wednesday is because she’s the dark and mysterious one. She’s the one who is always up to something that involves trouble. She’s also an absolute fashion icon!
If you want to dress up as Wednesday Addams for Halloween this year, then keep reading for some tips on how to get her look.
Her Hair
Wednesday is known for her long black hair. If you have long black hair naturally then you are already ahead of the game! If you don’t, then you can style your hair with hot rollers to create volume, or even use a wig.
To top off your hair style, add in a black bow. The bows should be large, almost covering most of the length of your ponytail. You can purchase premade bows at craft stores or online. Just make sure that they are black!
Wednesday Addams is an icon of teenage angst, and a great Halloween costume idea. Here’s how to get her look:
Her hair is long and black, with two braids tied together in the back. For Wednesday’s makeup, you’ll need to use a thick black eyeliner pencil to draw on some heavy eyebrows, as well as extra dark eyeshadow. Her look isn’t complete without her pale skin and red lipstick. Here are all of the items you’ll need for your Wednesday Addams costume:
Halloween is one of the best times of the year, because it’s socially acceptable to wear a costume and be someone else for a night. The best part about Halloween is that you can be whatever you want to be, and it doesn’t matter what your job is or what your interests are. You can become anyone from a zombie to a princess, from an angel to a devil.
I love dressing up as Wednesday Addams every year because she’s such an iconic character, with her long black hair and dress. She’s also very dark, which I like, but in a funny way. Here’s how you can create this costume for yourself (and for only $20!).
As usual, we’ll start with the most important part: the hair. My hair is naturally dark brown, so I don’t have to dye it for this costume. If you do need to dye your hair black, we recommend L’Oreal Feria Absolute Platinum Advanced Lightening System ($16) or Clairol Loving Care Hair Color ($6).
Next comes the dress: the classic Wednesday Addams dress is black with white collar and cuffs (or vice versa). This can be done with any piece of clothing that’s basically right (like this $12 black sweater
