Things I do

So I thought I'd kind of do somethin a little different today and post some random things that I do and that I have been doing recently... things that I want to share. Lol. This could literally mean anything... so yeah.

1) I keep people grounded- Everyone thinks they are awesome... Everyone thinks they are the best that is just a fact of life... no one is really all that good. I have come up with the catchphrase "Take Yourself Down A Peg" because really people do. Case in point... Men are super confident... too confident. I have a friend that dated a guy that... well they had a big problem in their relationship. Its something pretty unforgivable. And it was 100% his fault. So... yeah. That was a thing. And somehow... he ends up calling her recently and asking her to see a play with him... Yeah. Take yourself down a peg cause there is no universe in which you are not a total scumbag. Take yourself down a peg... look at the real picture. If you and a girl didn't work out... there's a reason. There are certain circumstances where I think you can get back together with an ex... but not if it ended really really badly... which it did. So take yourself down a peg. 

And I don't mean take yourself down a peg in a way to give anyone low self esteem or anything... I just want everyone to keep it real. Be humble. Like in my mind I'm a super hot, young 22 year old who can sing good and is overall just a cool person. In real life I'm a 23 year old who can't really sing and is kind of a major dork. But hey... keep it real. Be humble. I can admit I'm not the person I say I am while still having the confidence of the person I say I am. Then I can become that cool 22 year old... 

2) I lie about my age- Yep. This is fairly recent. I think I said that I was 22 to my hair dresser by mistake... and I noticed it a little later... and it felt right... so now I age backwards. At one point last night I was 21... its really sad. I am definitely 23... and I've been mistaken for 16-18. I don't look old or anything... but I feel old... so I've started saying "yeah I'm 22 this is awesome!" ... yeah. Might be sad... but I'm 22 I don't have to worry about that yet. 

3) A surprisingly good Sylvester Stallone Impression- You wouldn't know from looking at me. I look basically the opposite of Sylvester Stallone... but I do not do a bad impression of him at all. I don't really have any Stallone catchphrases... but its something I do a lot.

4) When I snapchat people back I send them a duck faced thumbs up- This is kind of a weird one. I don't really know how to acknowledge that I am reacting to a persons snap... so I figure a thumbs up with a duck face is a pretty good and funny way to do that.

5) I sing gibberish lyrics to songs... sometimes in voices- This is a weird one... but yeah. Sometimes it isn't in gibberish, I'll just have different lyrics that mean the opposite of what it is. Its weird.

So if you guys think you're a weirdo... this is me and I'm cool with it!

Byeee!

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
