My Cat Drinks Water From A Bottle

So whenever my boyfriend (Adam) goes down stairs to give out cats water he fills up a bottle to pour into their bowl. One of our cats, T. likes to drink from the stream that goes from the bottle to the bowl, and lately he'll drink it from the bottle. I finally got it on video so here it is!

Small Target Haul

Today I went to Target, and picked up a couple of things. So I thought I would share with you what I picked up! Hope you enjoy!

 First is this adorable cup that I found in the dollar section.
I didn't plan on even stopping by that area, but the Eiffel Tower caught my eye,
and then I just had to have it!

 Also from the dollar section is this super cute note pad.
I absolutely love the lips on it.

 Maybelline Age Rewind concealer.
I can't even tell you how much I've heard about this stuff.
It seems like ever since Tiffany D  mentioned it in a video
everyone started talking about it.
So I decided to finally give in and see what all the hype is about.
I'm excited to try it out.

 Finally, I picked up the Revlon 3D Volume mascara.
I was in need of a new mascara, and I never try out the newer stuff
while it's still new. So today I thought "Why not?"
 Look at that brush! 
So excited to this out tomorrow.

NOTD - OPI Stranger Tides

Today's NOTD is OPI's Stranger Tides
which was part of the 
Pirates Of The Caribbean collection.

This is my first time using an OPI nail polish.
I plan on purchasing more colors from them.

Hope you enjoyed!

My First NOTD Post

I am so excited to be doing my very first NOTD post! I've wanted to do posts like this before, but for one reason or another I just haven't gotten around to doing it. 

The color I'm wearing is Butter London's Fairy Lights.
This is was my first time using a Butter London nail polish, and I love it.
I used 2 coats.
 

 On my ring finger I used 2 coats of Tart With a Heart.

Overall I absolutely love these polish's, and I definitely plan on purchasing more
from Butter London.

New Year, New Beginning

If you follow me on Twitter then you may have seen me talk about how I want to blog more this year. I really meant to keep up on it better than I have been, but for me it's so much easier sometimes to get in front of the camera and say what I wanna say. I haven't exactly decided what I want to blog about, but I'm sure ideas will come to me. One thing I would like to do is nail posts. Now I am not one of those girls who can do designs on her nails, and have it come out looking amazing. Not that talented. But I do want to share with you what color I'm wearing at the moment. I enjoy choosing colors based on what I'm doing that day, or week.

As far as my YouTube Channel goes I am convinced you have to mention MAC in the title or post it as a tag for the video to get any views. I've been doing this for 9 months now, and honestly I thought I would have a bigger following by this point. I mean I don't expect to be the next Elle Fowler or anything like that, but it would be nice to have more views, more subscribers, and more comments. Anyway that isn't what this post is supposed to be about. I'm not exactly sure what kind of videos I want to do, and I've said before I can't afford to do hauls all the time. I wish I could though. Just like with my blog, I'm sure ideas will come to me on what I want to do. I also want to pay more attention to my Vlog Channel which is still pretty new. So if you haven't subscribed to that channel please do so. It would mean a lot to me.

Anyway, I think that's all for this post. Just wanted to let you know what was on my mind dealing with my blog and YT channels. Hopefully I am able to stick to it and actually post more. I feel like i'm pretty decent about uploading videos, but the blog posting needs some work. So that's my main focus.

New Year

As the end of 2011 quickly approaches I can't help but look back on the year. A lot of not so good things have happened this year, and sadly that's all I can seem to focus on. I think it's just human nature to over look all the good and only see the bad negative stuff. While there were a lot of bad things there were also good things. So I want to use this post to look back and share some good things from 2011.

Early in the year my brother had to go through heart surgery. It was a pretty scary time for the family. His health hasn't been the greatest ever since he was born. So the thought of him being put under to have a surgery done was scary. And not just any surgery, but dealing with his heart. It was a weird kind of day, and I prayed a lot that day that everything would go well. I remember I wanted to have that day off from work so bad, and I couldn't get it. Luckily I was able to leave early that day, and got to the hospital and waited with everyone else. I remember when a nurse came out to update the family she found out I was his sister, and told me that he was asking for me. That made me feel so good. Finally after about 6 hours surgery was done, and we were able to see him. I remember when we found out he was ok and everything went great I cried.. happy tears of course. As scared and nervous as I was it I couldn't help but cry when I heard he was ok.

Now on to something lighter. April. I started making YouTube videos. This was something I had thought about for awhile. There were a few girls that I would watch, and they made me want to do it too. They just made it look like so much fun. So finally one day in April I decided I'm gonna do it. I was pretty nervous. I know the internet world can be pretty harsh and judge mental. I am a bigger girl and I expected to get a lot of really rude comments about my weight, and I have received a few and it's made me think maybe I don't want to do videos anymore. But then I think I don't care what a few people think. I really do love making videos, and it's help me in my real life too. I'm pretty shy and somehow making videos has helped me come out of my shell a little bit and explore a side of me I always knew was there, but never wanted to let out. Also I want to say thank you to anyone who has watched my videos and the ones who have left sweet messages and comments. Thank You!

This summer was amazing! I had what I like to call the best job ever. I was basically babysitting and at my age that can be pretty embarrassing. I loved every minute of it though...well ok not EVERY minute. I loved that I got to spend so much time with my friend kids who I adore and love just like they were my own. I loved spending so much time outside, and taking them to parks. I think my favorite day was when I took them to the lake. Now I was nervous about this..just me and 3 kids? Oh boy! These kids were sometimes hard to handle which is where the nervousness came from. To my surprise, though, they were awesome that day! I learned a few things that day.. about bugs. The oldest who is 9 loves bugs, and loves learning about them. But what 9 year old boy doesn't? He would see a bug or butterfly and tell me something about it that I didn't know. He's a smart boy. There is a trail that goes around that you can walk, which is what we did. It was a blast! I was nervous for no reason, because they were so awesome that day and very well behaved. By far my favorite day.

Fall quickly approached and I was no longer babysitting. It was time to move on and get a a different job. I had to go through a couple bad ones to get to the good one I'm at now, but it's ok it all worked out. I was so excited when I finally got called from the job I had been waiting on since April (the one i'm currently at). I felt like I was never going to hear from them, but one day I got a call that had an opening..FINALLY!
\
Winter..it hasn't been winter for very long but so far I guess it's going alright. And I guess this brings me to where we are right now.

I really am looking forward to the new year, and hopefully it will be a better one. I am excited to see what's to come, and honestly a little nervous. I'm sure it will be great though. I hope you all had an amazing 2011 and I hope you have an even more amazing 2012!! Be safe and have a Happy New Year!!!!

Review: Ponds Evening Soothe Makeup Removing Towelettes





This review is going to be for the Pond's Evening Soothe Makeup Removing Towelettes. These towelettes are described as having chamomile and white tea. I was excited to try these wipes out, because I love the original Pond's makeup removing wipes. 


Personally these wipes didn't give me a "soothing" feeling. It just felt like I was using a normal makeup removing wipe. The smell was nothing too special, and actually made it kind of hard to use the wipes.
They, like the regular Pond's wipes. removed all my makeup. Nothing special about these. I won't be purchasing these wipes. I will stick to the regular Pond's towelettes.
