I’ve gotten my hair cut and now I feel like I should only patronize posh coffee shops that charge $10 for one hot chocolate. I also need a business suit and a sense of superiority, which I’m lacking in both BUT, I’m still going to pull off this hairstyle because I adore it. My hairdresser was totally one of those mad genius artistic types. I sat down in her chair and she immediately says, “So what were you thinking LOB LOB LOB LOB.” At which point I said, “I guess I’m getting a lob?” And lets be honest, it was

Strange Bathrooms #2: Kate Spade
I was rushing around New York City desperately trying to find a bathroom. I popped into Kate Spade, begged for the use of their facilities, and found myself in the cutest restroom ever. Yes, Ever. Of course Kate Spade would have it that way! THERE ARE BOWS ON THE WALL! How adorable amiright?! Can I please have that wall paper in my bathroom?! Because I can’t get over it. And there’s a chair in the bathroom… But why? I never understood this. Is someone supposed to sit there and read a magazine while I do some business on the toilet?
Happy Veterans Day
I hope everyone not only has a restful day, but also takes a moment to reflect on the amazing things are soldiers do for our country. It’s easy to say “thank you” but when you really think about everything a person gives up when they join the military, it becomes overwhelming and “thank you” hardly seems enough. It’s often espoused they risk their lives and limbs to ensure our freedoms. Those are far too heavy a price to pay and yet they do it, bravely. But they also sacrifice their lives. By that I mean, the lives they would be
Happy Halloween!
I will be asking Alexa to play “Halloween Music” and marathoning all the classics such as “The Nightmare Before Christmas”, “Hocus Pocus”, and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”. Since I’m great at multi-tasking, I’ll also hand out gobs of candy to the lucky kids who ring my doorbell. Everything’s all decorated and the porch light will be on! Hope you enjoy the holiday and stay safe!
10 Random Facts About Me
Like many kids who grew up in the nineties, I had a superhero crush on Sailor Moon. I was going to be her, except less ditzy and without the meatball head hairstyle. Plus, her boots were so on point, I wanted them in my closet. My first high end makeup piece was from Clinique when I was fourteen. It was their Superbalanced Foundation and I both treasured it and used it up quickly because, I NEEDED TO WEAR IT EVERYDAY. I rub my thighs aggressively when I’m stressed. I don’t know why this habit happened but there it is. I’m
Why I’m Winning at Life
I just did the move in with my boyfriend and for awhile I’ve had STUFF everywhere. Stuffed in corners, overflowing out of Sterilite bins, and bags that desperately needed unpacking. I ordered a bookshelf and some containers, the used my storage jiu jitsu skills and now everything has a place. THANK GOD. Someone told me I’ve been looking smaller. I got to say, “Oh, I’ve been working out.” I’ve been waiting to give that response, because I thought I’d sound all posh and stuff, but really, I just sounded like a giant nerd. Whatevs. I still look like I lost

Getting My Posts Through E-Mail
I feel like a total jackass posting this, like people are soooo eager to not miss a single thing I write, but I have been getting complaints that people are missing my posts. Apparently, since switching to a self hosted domain, I disappeared from the WordPress reader. I don’t know how to get back on your feed, but I know some people must see me. Some people can “like” my posts and some people say that they can’t. I’m a domain noob. I don’t have the answers and that feels crummy and makes me feel stooopid since I can’t figure
GRE Study Update
Well, I’ve officially registered for the GRE meaning I’m in nonstop study mode. PLUS, I’m moving in with that one guy I’m crazy in love with which means my TIME IS DISAPPEARING like crazy! But busy means good things and I’m all for moving forward in my life! I’m studying through Kaplan and they are seriously kicking my booty but sharpening my brain at the same time. I rock the verbal portions! But math? I’ve got a loooong way to go baby! There are way too many formulas and complicated equations. I’d rather just shop for furniture to add my
My Issue with Sephora.
I like makeup and skincare. Sephora is the Mecca for beauty. Therefore, it follows that I should adore Sephora with all my heart. However, their customer service just flushed away any last remaining bits of loyalty I’ve had for them. It started with the August sale they had. I, being the junkie that I am, purchased products for 20% off. Score! Buuuut, when my package arrived, it was all sorts of wrong. It was filled with all the things I didn’t order. Boo. I called one of my girlfriends up with the disappointing news. “Strange,” she said. “I got a
