The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

The Good

  • My Thanksgiving wound up spectacular! Thanks to my wonderful boyfriend. Usually Thanksgiving is really boring for me but this year was a change for the better
  • I wound up buying into Black Friday and bought me and my boyfriend a PS Vita on Amazon! To be fair though I've been wanting it for some time now
  • There were quite a few good deals for the subscription boxes out there on Black Friday. Luckily I got in on some of them
  • My boyfriend and I are thinking of starting a subscription box business! I can't wait to tell you all more!

The Bad

  • I had a stuffingless Thanksgiving which is sad because the stuffing is my favorite part!
  • My boyfriend called me a troll because of how I give thanks! It's not my fault everyone says the same thing and I wasn't comfortable saying the things I'm really thankful for!
  • Between work and Thanksgiving I haven't really been able to post anything lately. It sucks to be such a busy bee sometimes
  • On the night of Thanksgiving my brother called me to tell me his phone charger broke and he needed a new one. So guess who drove all the way to Walmart at 12 am with her boyfriend to get one? That's right, this girl. NEVER.AGAIN.

The Ugly

So yesterday afternoon Paul Walker died in a car crash. I think this is the first celebrity death I've felt so saddened by. I mean I wasn't really that into the Fast and Furious series but I've seen quite a few of the movies and the ones I've seen I really liked. Not only that but him leaving behind a young daughter is pretty heart breaking as well. It's a bit reminiscent to my own childhood since my mother died when I was young too, but I think it's much worse to have someone close die in a sudden unexpected way. My heart really goes out to his family.

This Week Ahead

Now that we're nearing the final week of November there's so much to look forward to!


  • This week is Thanksgiving! I can't wait to spend it with my boyfriend. Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays!
  • Hopefully the mugs I bought back in September get here this week. I've been waiting way too long for them already!
  • I'm making croquetas for Thanksgiving. I really can't wait to see what everyone thinks of them. I might even make some to take into work on friday
  • I've also started shopping around for my boyfriend's Christmas gift! With any luck I can find something good this week.
  • Black Friday is also around the corner, which is always fun even if I don't go out because where there's Black Friday, Cyber Monday isn't that far behind!

Random Thoughts

I'm finally back for real this time which means I'll be catching up on all of the reviews and things I've missed!

  • I have so many reviews to post up I think I should hire an assistant!
  • Next month I'm going to start my Facebook page and Instagram for my blog
  • My boyfriend lost his phone at the grocery store a couple of days ago but thankfully his new phone should arrive today
  • I got a new flat iron so I can't wait to feature that in my blog. Expect it for This Weeks Favorites ;)
  • I've also started Christmas shopping early this year! I'm thinking of putting together a subscription box type thing for my Mother-in-law and Stepmother. What about you guys? What are your gift ideas this year?
  • Thanksgiving is coming up next week! Luckily my boyfriend got the day off so we'll go half-and-half with our families. I'm going to make croquetas too! What are your plans and is there anything special you're looking forward to eating? I just love stuffing!

The Week Ahead

Hey everyone! Sorry I've been down and out the past week. It was a bit hectic for me and by Saturday I just decided I might as well take the weekend off too. But this week I'm back!


  • This week I have a few reviews to post up including a couple from October
  • My PopSugar and Julep boxes should be shipping sometime soon, which is great
  • This week I'm going over to N's house and we're going to make sushi! (or try to) I'll post up the results afterward!
  • It's November so that also means I've started up my countdowns to my boyfriends birthday AND Thanksgiving!
  • I finally got off the waiting list for Ipsy! Which means I'll be getting that this month as well. I'm so excited for it

The Week Ahead

Two more weeks left in October! It kinda sad but I'm also pretty happy. Halloween is coming up soon and then next month is Thanksgiving! My favorite holiday! Anyway here's what's up to come;


  • My Dr. D's Pet Package was supposed to ship last week. I didn't get the tracking number but I'm sure it should come sometime soon
  • I'm getting new clothes with my boyfriend this week! I need them @.@
  • I think me and my boyfriend will start doing double battles in Pokemon soon. It'll be really fun since I've never done those before.
  • Even though it's not this week, I can't wait till Halloween. I'm really excited to go to a haunted house at this local mall. I would rather go to Halloween Horror Nights but that's not too realistic right now.
