Hi everyone! Like the new theme?! I’m just popping (definitely wrote pooping the first time hahaha) in today to share the accent vlog I’ve been seeing around! Basically you say a list of words and questions and the answers vary depending on where you’re from.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uizvhVAB-Ig&feature=youtu.be
The words:
in case you can’t understand me π Aunt, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught
The questions:
What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house? What is the bug that when you touch it, it curls into a ball? What is the bubbly carbonated drink called? What do you call gym shoes? What do you say to address a group of people? What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs? What do you call your grandparents? What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket? What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining? What is the thing you use to change the TV channel?
And since I didn’t have anything to do yesterday mom curled my hair and I did my makeup and had a photoshoot π so here are a bunch of selfies. I should really wear makeup more often.
dress is Lauren Conrad, jean jacket is American Eagle, shoes are Roxy
I discovered all of the awesome things a tripod and self timer can do. I had a ton of fun doing this! I’m excited to do it again π
I hope everyone’s having a great weekend!
What words do you say differently than me?
Ow oww, girl look atchu!! Absolutely stunning! And your accent vlog is beyond adorable. Please make more! We need to video chat one day π

You are so freaking adorable I can’t handle it!!!!!!!!!! I literally cannot handle it. You are so gorgeous.
I can TOTALLY tell that you have a Northern accent, haha!! Especially when you pronounced “mayonnaise” and called the fizzy drink “pop.” I am definitely doing this this week!
PS. LOVE the new theme. LOVE you!! π

Thanks Sally!! You should definitely do the accent vlog, I’d love to hear your voice! π
You talk exactly like I thought you would! Ah you’re so cute! I love all these outfits!
It’s weird, because I’ve never imagined what yours or anyone else’s voice sounds like! Haha. You should do the vlog!!! You probably have a Texas accent! π
I love your boots.. they’re adorable! Also I loved listening to the accent vlog… I grew up outside Chicago so I say some words the same like other Midwesterners!

Hahah love this Leigha!!! My math teacher is from New York and we can’t help but laugh when she says “orange” like “ar-ange” and so on π Andddd YOU ARE GORGEOUS! I gotta do another Fashion post but I can never get my sis to take pics of me lol.

Yesss you should do more Fashion posts! Invest in a tripod π But you should definitely do the accent vlog so I can hear your voice!! π
Awesome vlog! I love it! It was fun to hear your voice and accent! Also, I love your photo shoot pictures. I honestly thought a professional photographer took them!

Aww, are you serious?! Thanks, Allie! I’d love to hear your accent π
I love your necklace!!!!! π u r sooo pretty!
Thanks Lucy! π
Could this be any cuter?! You’re looking so sweet, the dress is super cute and I may or may not be jealous of your gorgeous hair. Actually, I’d just copy the whole outfit, haha.
I’ve seen a few of these accent vlogs before and they’re a great way to feel like you ‘actually’ got to know a blogger even better. And after seeing your vlog I think we’d totally be friends if we ever met. Never hesitate to post more vlogs! (:

Aww, thank you! You should totally do the vlog, I’d love to hear your voice! π
I did this a few years ago. So fun! π You kept yours much more concise than mine. Ha.
Okay… And your face when you read the question about what it’s called when it’s raining and the sun is shining…. That cracked me up. I watched a few before I did mine and everyone said it was “the devil beating his wife.” ??? or a sunshower. I’ve never heard of either, and all of our answers/words were the same, so it must be a regional thing.
Devil beating his wife… what?! lol! Glad to hear I’m not alone in he Midwest accent π
