Blogmas Day 13: 10 Things I Love About Christmas!

 
I can't believe it's almost time for Christmas. There's only twelve days left, time is going by too fast. Anyway, I'm the biggest kid when it comes to Christmas! I love pretty much everything about it, except for the shopping part. That's my least favorite it's always crowded and everyone goes into fighting mode. But this isn't about the things I don't like, it's about what I do like. 
 
Christmas Movies:
I love watching Holiday movies, whether I'm alone or with my family. It's like I turn into a kid and that's what I enjoy! If you're curious to know what my favorite movies are, check it out here: My Favorite Christmas Movies!
 
Holiday Baking/Food:
I love the smell of Christmas cookies and the best part is the decorating. Although I do like eating Christmas cookies and it is a tradition, there's a lot more desserts to take advantage of this season. Like brownies, white chocolate blondies, chocolate cake and I'm going to stop there because it too much chocolate in one sentence! I think the holidays are an excuse just to eat and that's fine with me! I like going shopping for the food and I love preparing it, but when that process is over I'm like "What do we do now, I guess we just eat"! 
 
Decorating The Christmas Tree:
I love decorating it's one of the most relaxing things to do. I mean you put on your favorite Christmas songs and it's like you're having a party already. I also love seeing others people's decorations as well. Whether it's driving down the street or seeing the decorations in the stores! 
 
Giving Christmas Presents:
You're probably thinking this is silly, but this is really a favorite. Seeing the smile on someone's face is more special than anything. I mean receiving gifts is nice, it's real nice. But seeing others happy is rewarding and fulfilling. 
 
The Holiday Sales:
I can't believe I'm actually writing, but hey there's nothing wrong with catching a sale. I've been really lucky with that this time around and also discounts! 
 
Hot Chocolate: 
Well this is something I could drink all year long, but I guess it's more appropriate for the winter! 
 
Spending Time with Family:
I'm pretty sure this is everyone's favorite thing about Christmas! I know a lot of people live far from their families, so the holidays are a time for everyone to hangout and ketchup on life. 
 
Candles:
I am obsessed with candles! I have a collection of them, or is that just me. I love the smell of them, especially on a cold day. With winter right around the corner it's the perfect time to get cozy under the cover and light your favorite candles. Plus you can binge on your favorite Netflix shows. 
 
Waking Up Early On Christmas Day:
I remember one year I couldn't go to sleep and I just laid there wondering if it was time to wake up! It seemed like I was waiting for hours, but it's worth it in the end! Everyone it's the same, wake early and jam to Christmas songs. 
 
Santa Claus:
You're probably laughing at me right now and I'm ok with that! But this is definitely a top reason, why I love Christmas. Leaving Santa Claus, cookies and milk on Christmas Eve was the best. But then waking up on Christmas Day to see it gone was more exciting and he actually took the time to write back! 
 
I hope you enjoyed reading and let me know what you love about Christmas!

Helpful Posts/Sites For Bloggers

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 ...
