Bridesmaid Diaries: The Small Stuffs

I figured I'd just do a little mashup of some small stuff you may not think of for weddings... so yeah.

Hiding The Dress From The Groom 
My sister didn't mind other people seeing her dress before the wedding, but she didn't want the groom to see it and he didn't want to see it either. This was difficult because we live in a digital age... and Right when her dress came in, the Facebook app changed and was asking if you wanted to add photos from your camera roll directly to Facebook... so that was a risk. Just be very careful with that! 

The Bathrooms 
So in the bathroom at the wedding, usually they include things like hair ties, advil, other things you might need... the women's room is probably more filled than the mens room... but yeah. Spray on deodorant is useful, a body spray... stuff like that. I used Advil at a friends wedding because I had a really bad headache... so it is very appreciated! 

Bridesmaid Hairstyles 
I like Emma Watson's hair, which is about the same length as mine and she always has really pretty up-dos... my sister doesn't think thats wedding-y enough... so we'll see what happens. I also like my hair shorter than it is now, but my sister freaked out when I cut it saying "You're going to grow your hair out before the wedding right?" So I didn't cut it since then... which is a little ridiculous... do what you want with your hair... but you know... idk how this ones going to work out. Lol. I'm getting my hair cut after. Also... side note... my hair usually grows back really fast and it did not grow that fast this time... so I'm kind of freaking out about that. 

Freaking Out 
Weddings are very fun and exciting... but theres a lot of freaking out involved too because its terrifying! Be okay with people being grumpy or upset... and just know its almost over and then you get to be with the person you want to be with for the rest of your life. And thats good.

And I think that's all. Maybe I'll do an updated Crunch time type of thing... but thats good for now!

Byeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Throwback Thursday: The Incredibles

This is one of the more underrated movies in the Pixar Universe... thatI think is actually getting more popular now than it was back when it was released... so that's good. I think it really stands the test of time... but it still isn't one of my favorites. This movie I think is pretty cool because it was the first time Pixar really used humans. When I was little I thought "Toys, Bugs, Monsters, Fish... the next movie will be about dogs!" And I was surprised it was this! I didn't know Pixar could do that! But I guess technically its about heroes and not humans... but then Pixar began to show more humans in their world and The Pixar Theory was started... and yeah. I just kind of want to state my opinion on the Pixar Theory here too cause why not: I don't believe that Pixar set out to create this elaborate world with all the movies connected... but I do still believe it exists in some way shape of form. It all adds up and checks out... so for me... somehow t...

Rereading My Favorite Thing I Wrote In College

Hey guys! I'd say "today's post is a little different" but they're all kind of different to begin with... so this might end up being the same- or at least something that can fit into this blog in a nice way. So I don't want to post the actual thing that I wrote... but in my college Creative Writing Class that I took at 21 we needed to write a fantastical realism short story. And I wrote something that I always liked. The lead character was a smart and sassy woman... the fantastical elements were exciting and unique... and the story as a whole had a cute ending and a good message... and I really liked the way that I took what happened in my real life and changed it into this amazing and fantastical thing. Re-reading it... it was still pretty good. I actually liked the ending a little bit better because it had a nice message about believing in yourself that I kind of just snuck in there without much thought... and there was a cute little love story. I liked ...
