Favorite Things of The Week 11/3/17

Saturday 10/28/17 

Saturday was super fun! I posted my first vlog on my youtube channel and that was pretty awesome... and I went shopping at the Outlets and then at night I went to dinner with my parents and then out for some Halloween Fun with my friends!

Soooo yeah at the Outlets I went to Francesca's and I got a belt and a necklace that I wore with my halloween costume later...

I've mentioned before I'm not all that into costumes, but I love using what I have and coming up with something... and I feel like this is my favorite version of that. It just looked so witchy and so good. The hat is from Wallgreens, the belt and the necklace are from Francesca's... I got the ring from Hot Topic a few years ago and I have skull earrings that I got at a craft show. The blue Lipstick is Too Faced's Who's Zoomin Who... which lasted pretty well throughout the night! It drifted a little outside the lines... but not too badly.

The dress is from Old Navy also... and I wore my Lock, Shock and Barrell leggings from Lularoe!
These are so comfy! I think this is the coziest pair I have!

So yeah those were all favorites. I also had a Chicken and Peanut Coconut Sauce from Starbucks... that was delicious! I tried it for the first time on Friday... and I had another one saturday... I'm a little hooked!

Sunday 10.29.17 
I was out all night with my friends  on Friday... so my favorite today is definitely the 13 Nights of Halloween on Free Form and my pajamas lol. I don't have a headache or anything and I feel okay from the drinking... but I feel crappy for other reasons that happen monthly... so that kind of sucks... but I'm making the most of it with my pajama movie day. It's raining outside and I'm just very comfortable in my jammies today lol.

I had a pork roll and cheese today too... so winners all around!

Monday 10.30.17 

I started reading Big Little Lies today! It was really good. I've started it a few times before- but this time I actually read a substantial amount of it. It's good. I like it!

I also watched Dancing With The Stars... I've watched kind of a lot this season... not something I always watch- but I do enjoy it around Halloween and I think everyone is doing a really good job this season... so it's kind of exciting!

And I had a really good Pumpkin Latte from Dunkin Donuts. I don't usually go to Dunkin... but this was a good one!

Tuesday 10.31.17 

Halloween! I love Halloween! I was sooo tired today though. I did have a really good Roast Beef Sandwich for lunch and my mom made some delicious Ziti for dinner... it's a Halloween tradition... we celebrate Halloween like it's Thanksgiving lol.


I love my Jack Skellington Perfect T from Lularoe... I really like how the Perfect T's fit. They're nice and flowy and I just really like it!

I'm watching Blackish right now and it's really good. It just started... but I figured I'd include that.

And I kind of want to read some more Big Little Lies later... I also want to have a Throwback Thursday of Season 1 of American Horror Story on Thursday... and I kind of want to watch Practical Magic or Mickey Mouse House of Villains... so we'll see what happens.

And some of my furniture is put together now! I've got my bookshelves together and my bed is mostly together... my dad had to order something else for it because apparently the Malm bed is just the frame... but with none of the stuff to support it to hold a mattress up... so we had to order that... and yeah. Everything looks really good so far! I like it a lot!

Wednesday 11/1/17 
The Holiday Drinks are back at Starbucks!!! As much as I love the PSL- I love changes and the Holiday drinks are all drinks I love and I drink pretty much all of them! I had the Chestnut Praline today- that is my favorite for Thanksgiving and I am just really excited about these.

The cup is super great too. I colored in one of mine and I had a lot of fun with that... and then that got me back into coloring... and late at night I was coloring and listening to Oprah's Super Soul Podcast... this time I liked it better. I listened to the 2 episodes with Nate Berkus and I just really love him! He's lived such an interesting life and I loveee interior design and I just think he did an awesome job on the podcast. He said some amazing things and I was really into it.

So like while I was doing that I was coloring a picture of 2 birds and I made it as meaningful as I could make it and I was thinking of things I learned in college... and everything just felt a lot better. Lol.

Anyway so that was a weirdly amazing experience and I'm happy I had better luck listening to that podcast interview than the Alanis Morrisette one lol.

Earlier in the day... I watched American Housewife and Modern Family and those were really good too... I watched The Tim Tracker, he went to see the dolphin from Dolphin Tale and that was awesome... I saw Justin Scarred's video of Route 66 with his son. It was just great!

I listened to Comedy Bang Bang too... that's a really funny show! I liked that a lot!

Thursday 11/2/17
So I tried some new spreadable cheese... it's a dill cheese and that was really good. I had it on some Town House crackers from Keebler... better than Ritz. Ritz has been so crappy lately they just break so easily... so as delicious as Ritz are... the Town House are just as delicious and they don't break on me!

They are a little smaller though... so I had a lot of cheese and crackers.

I watched a couple episodes of The Dis Unplugged today already. I watched their Best and Worst and the Dining Show. Great shows. I'll probably watch the Universal show whenever that is on too... I just like the podcasts so yeah.

I also watched Jen Luv's Review's Birchbox unboxing... I don't think I could ever do a subscription box... this one looked okay but not great- but she gave a really real and honest review of the box live and that's pretty awesome!

It is so gorgeous out today... the leaves have started changing more and more. It's beautiful when they're all changed... but I also think it's really pretty when there's some green left. I feel like every day lately there has been less and less green. It's really nice.


I had a good makeup day today too... my liquid liner was a little not the best... but I think I did an okay job lol. I used the Lorac Pro Palette and a new way of doing my face makeup... so that was fun... 


So now I'm watching superstore and I'm super tired... so I'll have some Egg Nog. Life in Pieces was supposed to be back... but they're playing Football in my area instead... so I'm a little upset about that. Young Sheldon was supposed to be back too... but it's still football.

And that's enough favorites for the day... so I'll check back in tomorrow!

Friday 11/3/17 


Today was a little boring... I edited a video that I'm posting Tuesday and I wrote a few blogs... did some Outfit of the day posts... I watched a little youtube.. things were pretty good overall! I had a fun day!

I caught up on Crazy Ex Girlfriend and wow... it was pretty intense. It's a great show but it's getting intense.

I also decided I want to watch more movies... so I watched Pop Star: Never Stop Never Stopping... really funny movie. It's The Lonely Island movie kind of if you've never seen it... it's a parody of Justin Bieber... and it's just funny. I've been liking it a lot.

I think that is everything... I'm into watching movies sooo I kind of want to watch more throughout the month... I want to watch at least one new (to me) movie and maybe 1 old one... and I kind of want to watch a Disney movie and a pixar movie a month too... just cause that makes me happy... but then I need to commit more lol.

Saturday 11/4/17 
I have furniture now! My dad built 2 bookshelves a few weeks ago, he finished up my bed today and he did half of my desk... so I still have dressers and drawers... but I almost have a room that soon I'll be able to sleep in! I could sleep in it now actually... but I need some new bedding lol.

I'm loving the Chestnut Praline latte this year... it's so good.

I got some rollerball fragrances from Francesca's today. My friend got me a full size of their best scent... but I smelled the others and I also liked them... so now I got the rollerball set and I'm happy with it.

I also celebrated my birthday with some family friends of mine and that was a lot of fun!

And it was just a good day! One of the best days if you ask me! I had fun!

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

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...
