Blogmas Day 6: 25 Things To Do Before 25!

If you have read some of my previous, then you know this month is my birthday! I'm excited and blessed at the same time, because Christmas is a week and two days after my birthday. You will probably hear me say this quite often, so I apologize in advance. I can't believe I'm turning 25 years old, I remember when I turned 21. I actually cried that day, you would've though I was going through a "midlife crisis". The reason I cried was because I didn't want to be considered an adult. I just wasn't ready for that responsibility. I was scared and I wanted to be a kid all over again. It was so much easier and I really didn't have to worry about anything. So during the last week and a half, I have left of being 24 I decided to do 25 things before 25! You're probably thinking she doesn't have enough time and you would be right, if I was planning on doing something outrageous. Have you ever heard of "it's the little things that count"? Well the 25 things I'm doing before my birthday is simple and small. But most importantly they mean so much more. These things are in no specific order. Just so you'll know! Some of these things should be done everyday, but since it's almost Christmas I'm going to spread the love around even more!

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too. Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

Color Theory:8 Piece Ultimate Eyeliner Set

I love Eyeliner; eyeliner is my go to look. Anytime I had eyeliner my eyes would look like their dressed up! The only eyeliner I have ever wore up until this point was black; because that was the only color I thought was out (crazy of me right?!) Anyway lately I've seen many girls wear different color eyeliner, mainly on YouTube; so I knew immediately I would have to try it. After a while I forgot all about them, until Christmas of 2012 when I received them. I was so excited because my Mom didn't even know I wanted them; now that I am thinking I didn't even ask! Now I can match up the colors with eyeshadow. Enough of that here's the box they came in and I have the colors listed below. On the back it just talks about the different styles you can do with the eyeliners. For example: The famous winged look (instructions for it are on the back). ...

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means. During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no ...
