pixie!

The pixie cut looks like its making a comeback. Or maybe it always remained? Or perhaps its merely ladies riding the tide of the summer wave. Whatever the case - I LOVE IT! :D Pixie cuts are cute, and so easy to manage! I know, I use to have one (see ME above). :D I've had waist length hair, shoulder length, bobs, but I have to say, my favorite was the pixie cut. I felt comfortable and free. The only bad thing that happened one time was some older lady thought I was a guy - but I laughed it off. ;p I was a cute guy! haha. I don't know if I'll ever cut my hair that short again, but I love thinking about it, and enjoying looking at other people pull off the cut, which is not an easy thing to do for gals.

GIRL POWER!

Interlude . . .

gifted flashback

So I bought this for my mother a few months back. It's the Fujifilm Instanx Mini Camera.

She's used it a total of ONE time. :(

She wanted the old school Polarioid instant camera, but they don't make them anymore. Very sad. They were the best.

Some things should always remain, like vinyl, and platform shoes.

The camera itself is cute. The pictures are half the size of the old polaroid. It's a novelty item mostly, not for serious use.

But it's still cute. :D

nail color

I love being girly, and one thing that keeps me feeling girly in spite of the grit I can get myself into, is having my nails painted a pretty color. :D

I usually give my own self pedicure's and manicure's because I think its ridiculous paying so much for one every week.

I paint my nails a different color every two weeks and try to keep it classy, and I love the bright colors for summer.

This week I decided to go with the color "Soul Mate" by Sinful Colors. It's a coral pink/peachy color, and its lovely.

Sweet Treat

Even though I've spent too much money on dental work, I can't help but indulge in my sweet treats, though not as much as I used to.

My favorite treat of late has been Kosher lollipops that I purchase at Walgreens drugstore. My mother got me started after she started asking me to buy them for her.

The Cotton Candy flavor is my absolute favorite. :D

Yum!

Nightime cleanser

I am a late night owl, and can sometimes suffer from mild insomnia in that I usually have too much to do before bedtime. I work later hours as well.

A life on the go means lots of stress on the body, both inside and out.

I tend to suffer from acid reflux because of the copious amounts of caffeine I consume, and I have trouble sleeping at night if I don't take some form of medication, which I loathe. I also suffer from adult acne, which is a pain in the arse.

Recently I decided to try an organic approach to my problems, and I must say, I'm enjoying it!

I've heard some trials about Manuka honey and the natural benefits that come with it. It's said to be great for the skin and digestive system with its antibacterial properties. I also know of the effects of peppermint tea on the digestive system. So, I decided to concoct a little remedy of my own.

This recipe has helped me sleep at night and has, thus far, kept my skin breakouts to a minimum. I've only just started drinking it, so the jury is still out, but thus far, I'm enjoying it.

Nightime Cleansing tea

A cup of steaming water and a packet of Traditional Medicinals Organic Peppermint Tea

A teaspoon of Manuka honey (make sure its the real deal, pure raw, organic Manuka honey)

A squirt of lemon juice

Drink and enjoy! :D

new Harry Potter trailer!

Yes, I am a Harry Potter fan. But more of the movies, not the books so much.

And this looks completely AWESOME.

Can't wait!
