Random Mini Haul

Hello my darlings! So I'm posting a bit later than usual buuut I am posting! :) This weekend I went shopping with my mom in town. We passed through one of my mom's favorite shop Bath & Body Works and we found out that they had brought their seasonal lotions and body mists. Then I had discovered that they sell candle! FREAKING CANDLES!!! I love candles so much, especially seasonal ones. :D So I kind of bought a few and decided to share some of them with you.

The 1st picture is Pumpkin Apple and is one of my favorite mostly because I love the smell of apples for some strange reason...  Haha! The picture next to it is Smoked Berries & Incense and it smells amazing! Not only that I love the cute little golden design with the maroon background. 

  

The next three candles is (in order from left to right) Pumpkin Apple, White Barn's Autumn, and Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin. These little candles are filled with this seasons scents and really brings out the autumnal feel to the room. The picture next to it an adorable little pumpkin candle holder to make the candles even more appealing.

I also purchased these furry black headband with kitty ears on them from Claires. And the last picture is a peach sweater top from Forever 21 and a necklace which is as well from Forever 21 with opal type of stones. Well I hoped you like this random little haul. It's not much but I wanted to show you what I'm getting this season! Bye! :D

I'm Back!!!

Hello my darlings! Oh my gosh! It's been a while hasn't it?! I'm sooo sorry for the lack of posts! It has gotten pretty hectic, but also I'm not gonna lie, I forget to blog sometimes or I have no clue what to blog about so I usually don't post anything... BUT now that a certain favorite season of mine is just around the corner (I can already feel its strong vibes!) I have so many fun and amazing arts and crafts ideas for it. Autumn is my all time favorite season of the year and I have't been more excited! I'll be doing a lot of DIY, "Tea Thursday", and of course just random post based around the season Autumn! :) I've been planning this for quite a while and can't believe the time is here so I hope you enjoy!

RIP Robin Williams

Today we lost one of the world's most beloved actors. Robin Williams was pronounced dead at 12:02 p.m. on Monday, August 11, 2014. The actor's rep Mara Buxbaum had said in a statement that Mr. Williams "Has been battling severe depression of late." Depression is something that isn't easy to overcome. It takes a lot of strength and fighting, and sometimes people don't believe that they can overcome it. I just wanted to tell you that you CAN, you DESERVE to be here alive for so many reasons! There are tons of people who want you here, to see you smile and be happy! I am one of those people! Right now if you are hurting, please please please reach out and call someone. Don't be afraid. Believe it or not there are people who love and care about you. Who want to help YOU. "Suicide is a perminate solution to a temporary problem" -Robin Williams. Today heaven celebrates the welcoming of their new angel. Robin was such a talented artist who brought laughter to our childhood. He will be missed by many, but he will not be forgotten. Thank you for all the joy you brought to us through your movies. Sending out my prayers to the Williams family at this tragic time. May your sould rest in peace Robin Williams. <3

Girls Night!

It's only Monday and most people wouldn't even think
 of hosting a sleepover but hey it's summer!
It is a great time to have all you friends come over,
whether on the weekend or during the weekdays.
 Take this time and opportunity to create fun adventures and
 new memories that will hopefully last a lifetime! :)
Here are some sleepover essential must haves.
As a disclaimer,
 these are just examples
 and can be altered for your preference and desires. 

Never forget to go out and buy some of your
favorite snacks and drinks. Whether it be sweet or salty,
you can never go wrong having snacks at a sleepover! 

Having facials or makeovers might be my favorite part of
a sleepover. It doesn't even have to be perfect! It can be for silly
challenges or for instagram selfies!

You can set up a bed or make a fortress! Anywhere so you can
have a place to crash if you get tired. It's also a nice to place
to have your girly conversations or pillow fights. :)

Romance, horror, action and etc. The next part is picking a
movie that you will enjoy.

If you can't find a movie that you like from your DVD
collection, you can never go wrong with Netflix!
It has a whole bunch of movie selections you can pick from.

Here is my younger sister picking our first movie that we'll be
watching tonight on Netflix. :)

Once you have selected a movie, you pop the popcorn and get
out all your snacks. Sit back, relax, and enjoy! :D

Random Thought Monday

Today I'm blogging a little later than usual because I just got home from a long day of work and chores to get done. Mondays are usually poop but I have series of tips that I like to do, to get rid of my Monday blues, I blogged about it a week or so ago. Anyways, today I decided to post this picture with words of encouragement because it is a constant reminder to myself never to sell myself short. When I was asked the question of what type a career I am going to study for, I was so terrified of what they might have thought if I had told them I wanted to become a professional performer in the arts that instead I told them I was going to study criminology. Wow, wasn't that a mistake. Now I am not trying to bash on the study criminal justice or anything, but it was not something that I wanted to do. It wasn't until my senior yr. of high school that I had built up the courage to tell my school councilor that I am changing my profession. It was the best decision I had made, and even though the thought of telling my parents scared the crap out of me; finally telling them gave me such a relief. Now that they're on board on my new journey towards becoming a performer, I've learned to never give up on something that you love to do even if it may seem scary at times because in the end it will be worth it! I hope that these words right here help you as much as it did for me. :) Okay now that I'm done rambling HAHA Happy Monday! 

Monday Zzzz...

Monday... when it's the weekend and you hear someone mention Monday. You get a sinking feeling at the pit of your stomach. Monday is that day of the week where everyong gets up super early to go to work and get things finished. It is the sign that the week is begining all over again. Everyone has to wake up at the crack of dawn for at least the next 5 days and bury themselves in responsibilties. Some people have it easy and some people dont, but the point is that the majority of the people DREAD Mondays. There are mutiple ways of getting over that and looking at the more positive side. Today I didn't feel like doing anything at all, but just like all of you I have responsibilties to take care of throughout the week. Here are 7 tips on helping get over the Monday Blues that I've learned or read is

1.) Try to avoid work on the weekends. The weekend is a time to relax and enjoy yourself. Finish everything you're supposed to do before the weekend so you don't have to stress during the weekend about getting things done before Monday.

2.) Accept the Monday blues because if you don't it ony make the situation worse. It will only exhaust you further and we don't need that.

3.) Start your Monday on the right side! Wake up ealier than usual so you don't have to be in a hurry, take a nice cold shower to help wake you up, have a cup of your choise of beverage (tea, coffee, milk, juice, or lemon in water).

4.)  Dress up! Baggy clothes like sweats and hoodies does not with your confidence to get through the day. Instead dress light and energetic so you can give  a better vibe from yourself

5.) Be social! Engaging into a conversation in the morning helps the brain into waking up for the day. It needs a warm-up before it starts wokring.

6.) Be Positive! Get in the mode! Pump yourself up like listening to your favorite song or working out before work.

7.) Make someone's day. Doing something nice for someone can definitely lift up not only the person your helping spirits, but yours as well!

I hope that these tips and advice will help cure those with the Monday Blues and give them something to look foward to instead of wanting to avoid. :)
