Time to catch up...

Although I really should, I haven't quit blogging. I've been drafting posts and none of them seem to get the job done. I feel so far behind on just about everything. So if you're still sticking around I'll fill you in super quick on some of the things that have been happening in life. 

I don't start school until the end of September because I have quarters (10 week classes) opposed to semesters (15 week classes). I've been working pretty much 7 days a week at both jobs. Exhausted? Beyond!

I took one of those wine painting classes with my mom a few weeks ago.. I think it's obviously that I'm not an artist..


I've been single for a few months and honestly, I'm sick of dating. I'm considering just worrying about my own schedule and my own happiness. Maybe I should make a post this week about how much dating sucks.

I did meet a guy. Our first date was absolutely perfect and I laughed and smiled more than ever. We talk every day and I was finally feeling really happy. However, I don't know that I can deal with his job. I've been trying, but it's hard. Go figure. 

The dude I dated for 3 years came over one night a few weeks ago to drop off beer. That turned into a few hours of catching up and me realizing why I deserve better. I haven't talked to him since, except when he tries to brag about things I don't care about. 

I finally changed my hair color! I've been wanting to go red, but always did a temporary brown with a red tint. When it faded it'd be super noticeable. So I finally had the courage to go permeant. Here's a before and after...


It might be hard to tell from the picture, but it's more of the color that Chelsea from Teem Mom has. 

I've been so busy lately and really lacking motivation to do anything when I have a little bit of free time. I promise I want to be back on here more regularly, I've been saying that forever. But, I've had some time to think of blog ideas and I really want to get the ball rolling.

As always, thanks for sticking around!

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

Oh, How Pinteresting…

Friday’s Letters!!!!

Dear Bret Michaels, Once I had a film class. It was so badass and made me wish I was an actress. I actually love being in front of the camera acting.. ANYWAYS.. This was the closest I’ve been to you.. when I was on a fake Rock Of Love.. with a fake Bret Michaels.. But, I’ll be seeing you live this Saturday!!! Dear Poison and Def Leppard, See you on Saturday!!!.. I’m pretty damn nervous to party with a bunch of people older than my mom. But, thank you for giving me an excuse to have extra big hair and dress like I belong in the 80’s.. I’ll look better than all these old chicks that still live in the 80’s.. Just sayin’.. Dear Friday’s Letters, You always make me so happy to write! I love that this link up always gets me so much positive feedback! It always makes my Friday so much better!.. I work Friday nights and Saturday mornings.. so Friday isn’t always as awesome to me as it is to everyone else. Dear Ashley from Adventures of Newlyweds, The first time I ever linked up I mention
