A slight weekend recap.

I was stuck at school for 9 hours today and didn't get to recap my weekend. The best part was Saturday. I spent the night downtown. I had such a great time. I'll share some photos & vines with you guys.













Yes! Amazing seats! There was even a waiter!























That night I decided that I wasn't going to go to the Detroit Fireworks that were on Monday night. My reasoning was that I didn't want to get shot. As I was watching the Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup I start seeing tweets from all my friends that went to the Fireworks. Tweets about never going to Detroit again, tweets about gun shots and tweets about everyone just running in fear. I was so worried. 

I read a lot of articles about it. Police claim no one was shot and that they can't confirm shots being fired. The videos are scary. One article even talked about how twice on Monday they found a suspicious package. 

It makes me sad that I will never say I'm "from Detroit." I know I always say "Made in Detroit, but made for Nashville" simply because I love Kid Rock's Made in Detroit brand. Detroit is a beautiful city that has so much potential. The skyline is used in a lot of movie. It's a scary place though. 

On another note, I'm very excited for this week and weekend. I have a lot planned. I can't wait to have another good weekend. I've been feeling so positive lately. Even on bad days I still find something to be happy about. This is huge for me right now. I will do my best to have a few more posts this week. Feel free to follow me on Twitter, Vine & Instagram if you want to keep up. All of my usernames are MandyShippe except I think you can find me on Vine as Amanda Shippe. 

As always, thanks for sticking around through my months and months of crappy blogging!

You can’t blog with us!

I’m not digging all of these big shot bloggers trying to make these rules for blogging. I have read posts about how not everyone should have a blog. If you’re not a big shot blogger, like myself.. this post is for you. If you are a big shot blogger, this post is also for you.. but, none of you will read this. These are just some of the rules that I don’t follow.. Your blog will be judged by it’s cover. Have a perfect layout. If spending $100 to have some make a layout for my blog means you’ll read my blog and you’ll follow me.. then I don’t give a damn if you’re not following me. Respond to all comments left on your blog. It is important to respond to comments.. however, I do understand why people can’t always respond. Personally.. if you ask me something I most likely will respond. A lot of the time I get comments that pretty much all I can say is “Thank you!” to.. I mean.. I’ll absolutely always respond if you e-mail me.. or even if you comment on instagram.. I respond almost inst...

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...

Friday’s Letters!

Dear Pictures Of Myself, Why do you always look so bad? And, no.. I am not saying I’m ugly or any of that.. so please, don’t jump down my throat about that. But you know how some girls look 100 times better in their photos than in real life? Well, that’s not me.. and people have had no issue telling me that. Which, I guess is better.. unless you only see photos of me.. ehh, whatever. Dear Blog, I will be spending some time on you today. Planning some posts, commenting on some of my favorite blogs.. all of that stuff good bloggers do. Dear Friday, I’m so glad to be seeing you! Next Friday I will be enjoying Chicago for the very first time at the Keane concert with the love of my life! I need to make you a very productive day.. since Thursday was anything but productive. Dear Lucas Blaze, Thank you so much for planning on booking our room today after you get out of work around 7am… You’re the best. Last weekend was so amazing. I love all of our fun little dates. Dear Dark Hair, ...
