i love you.

you've been my best friend since you were born

thanks for always putting up with me.



 

16 years later.....

and you're still my fave

guilty pleasure

this is the post i was trying to do yesterday.

i have an obsession.

i love the Bachelor, and sometimes even the Bachelorette

i cried last season when Brad proposed to emily.

cried.

and i cried when they broke up.

i'm unsure of my thoughts on ashley hebert being the bachelorette this season.

she is a little woooooooooooooohoohohoh

i loved her the beginning of last season.

until she turned psycho and needy.

now she has dark hair, extensions, and is obsessed with her body.

the men this season.....ummmmmmmmmmm

weird.

let me introduce you to some of the contestants.

meet the hairstylist?

he's into his hair....her hair....and kisses her twice on the cheek after first meeting her.

iffy.

i like him i think.

he's a dentist.

he's classy.

he's manly.

he's my fave i think.

okay i like him too.

i like him, but i really hate him too.

he's a solar energy executive, and he LOVES that

i think i heard him say "i truly want to save the world" about 2655645 times.

a little cheesy, a little conceited, and a little cute too.

i'll have to see about him.

bentley.

beautiful name. beautiful man.

meet the bad boy from none other than SLC.

yup.

i think i'm going to love him.

he's a player and makes for good entertainment on television.

the type of guy i never want to end up with,

but i love watching the drama.

......

these are the only guys that even semi stood out in my mind.

a little disappointing.

but i love that all these guys are MEN.

minus batman (?)



i'm sick of BOYS.

boy: someone who acts in a way that is immature, disrespectful, annoying

that's all that i know right now.

boys boys boys boys

i'm sick of them.

i'm ready for MEN.

respect, classy-ness, manly bodies....not pigeon toed scrawny boys.

love me some mennnnnnn

please and thanks.

oh, and

you know where to find me on monday nights



xoxoxoxo

boring.

i have a really, really great post.

and it's not letting me insert pictures.

good post turned bad.

i am frustrated.

    i feel like this today.

sad, i know

i can't help it

there are so many things i want. so many things that i want to buy, or have someone give to me.

i want

i want

i want

and i know that's selfish. but it's what i'm thinking.

but i have to save for my apartment.

i'm probably the WORST saver alive. mainly because i don't save.

i spend.

it's a horrible, horrible habit that i'm trying to break.

but how do you save when there's so much to buy???!!!!!!!

someone needs to send me down the garbage shoot....

with an iphone maybe?

the mom inside me

now that i know i have a whopping TWO people reading this...i might as well update it :)

i spent tonight babysitting my adorable cousins-tucker and dexter.

most people think babysitting is horrible, but i thoroughly enjoy it. especially with two little cuties like my little cousins. Now that college is getting close, i realize that it's these little things that i'll miss. sarah--i know you were saying that you got emotional painting the wall with the people you nanny, because in a short while you won't be here anymore. in a sense, that's how i've been feeling. i'm starting a new life in a new place.

i'm more excited than ANYTHING. but it's still weird to think i won't be nannying my favorite family, or babysitting my cousins in a few months.

this is dexter. he's a cutie. and i love him. who wouldn't with that face?

i've been a nanny for about a year now. these girls have become my own little sisters. they have taught me so much, just from me observing the way they are. for example:

#1 always buckle up.

from the moment they get in my car, without fail, they buckle up. i've just picked up on it. not once have i ever seen them forget. i used to never wear my seatbelt. i can promise you, i hardly ever forget now. lesson #2: when someone compliments you, just say "thank you."

i think people have the tendency to drag out a story or disregard that someone is complimenting them. think about it. when someone says to you, "i love your hair." it's sometimes only natural to say, "ugh thank you, but iwoke up late and my hair wasn't cooperating and blah blah blah blah blah."

i compliment these girls and they smile and say THANKS. i love it.

#3: a hug can go a long way.

i love how much love i feel from these girls ALL THE TIME. they see me and just hug me. they make me feel so important! i try to do the same with others. make someone feel important, because they are!

this is the cutest note i have sitting in my car. geez i love these girls.

well, that should do it for tonight.

xoxoxo

dear sarah

sarah--i'm aware that you're the only one that reads this. so HEYYYYYY!!!!! isn't this great. living the lifestyle of a new blogger.

it was my birthday last week! it was a lovely day. enjoy the pictures from the event:

i went to sushi with my parents. it's my favorite food, and it's been a tradition to go on my birthday for quite a few years now.

My friends came over on sunday for a cake and ice cream celebration. i'll miss them when i move away.

a few of my favorite things

yayyyy school is almost over!!!!!!!! only a few more weeks and i'll be starting the rest of my life!!!! honestly, that sounds so weird to say. "starting the rest of my life." my life has already started. there are so many milestones in a person's life: graduating, marriage, having the first baby, grandkids....etc. etc. etc.

i guess this is my first big milestone.

enough of that. i'm sick today and all i'm doing is looking at wedding blogs (i'm a little obsessed with weddings) and looking at all the makeup i want. i LOVE makeup. it's amazing to me that you can completely transform a face by wearing colors and products. beautiful people become stunning. it's amazing. i've been obsessed with makeup for years now. i remember in seventh grade when i started really getting into it, and everyone else was just wearing mascara (if that). i've always had a hand for it. now it's what i spend all my extra money on.  i love sephora. i try to avoid the mall, because once i'm in there....there's no going back.

My faves:

You can't go wrong with any MAC eyeshadow.  They're simply beautiful.  Among my favorites: Tempting, Mythology, Amber Lights, Club, and Carbon.

Buxom mascara. This brush works wonders. My eyelashes look ten times longer and fuller after i put this on.  It's the perfect mascara for separating your lashes, as well as lengthening.

Okay. This is a makeup must. It's an HD liquid foundation--which means it pretty much conceals your flaws, even on an HD camera.  It's a little more on the pricy side for foundation..but it's amazing.
Allow me to introduce you to Stila's liquid foundation.  I was a liquid eyeliner virgin until this past fall when i discovered this gem.  It's just like a pencil, although you get a much more precise line.  Sometimes i absolutely love the smoky, smudgy look that pencil eyeliner provides, but when that's not the look i'm going for--i use this.  I like it because it doesn't look like you took a sharpie to your eyelid.

I adore this blush.  My mom died when she saw the names of their blushes...my favorite is Orgasm. Catchy though? I don't love sparkle in my blush. I figure that if you have shimmer in your eyes, keep your blush matte.

These are a few of my makeup necessities. Try them- i promise you'll fall in love.
