Happy 4th of July!

Dear blog, I hope all of you had a great 4th of July. I know I did. I got to spend it with my family and that is a huge blessing. I'm so proud to be an American. I have worked so hard to become a citizen of this great nation. My family and I have been citizens for about 4 years now. I'm so thankful for this country taking me in and giving me the opportunity to better myself.

This 4th of July I did something I had never done before; a color run. My husband and I actually did it together. I had an amazing time, it felt so good to run! By the end of the run we were covered in red and blue powder and let me tell you that stuff is hard to take off. After the run we went to my parent's house where we grilled hot dogs, hamburgers, and bratwurst. What did you do?

I'm looking forward to running another color run since I enjoyed this one so much! Have you participated in a color run? Did you enjoy it?

Back to School

Dear blog, it is time to start a new semester. I'm getting so close to being done with my Master's degree. I have 5 classes left; God willing I will complete my Master's and graduate this August. I'm so pumped to finally be done and get a small break from school. Which is ironic because my degree is in teaching. It is time to buy text books and school supplies. Even though my classes are online, I still like to have a notebook to take notes as I read. Also, I love post it notes to write reminders of when assignments need to be turned in, pens, pencils, and highlighters. I'm all about making to-do lists, so I always have a piece of paper around that tells me what I need to be doing. This is a lap computer desk, I bought it at Bed Bath and Beyond it is not found online. I have had this desk for about 5 years now. I really like this desk because it can be moved around; it can be used on the couch or just to sit on the floor. This desk has two slots on the side to ke

Wish List for Valentines

Kiel James Patrick: Brunch At Tiffany's , I discovered this store last year and I absolutely fell in love. In particular with this pearl necklace, I have been wanting it since I saw it. It is quite pricey, hence why I have not been able to get it. This necklace costs $82.00; I mean it is made up of pearls so I don't expect for it to be cheap. Also, it looks like a classy piece that every girl should have in their jewelry collection. Pearls will always be in style. Tory Burch: Perfume ; this one is the 1oz bottle for $65.00. This has been on my wish list for a year. The bottle is absolutely gorgeous, I can use it as a decoration on my vanity. Tory Burch: Tilsim Logo Heart Stud , perfect gift for Valentines Day. These earrings are gorgeous. Victoria's Secret: The Cotton Mayfair Pajamas , this pajama is so cute, it's in my favorite color. Also, I need new pajamas, I have plenty of pajamas bottoms, but not tops. This one is perfect because it

Week 6 Weight Loss Journey

Image
Dear blog, once again no change in my wight. I look slimmer, but no weight has come off. I have not gained or lost weight; my brother says it's because I don't have a clean diet and I think he is right. I have been working out really hard, but not made much improvement in the types of food I have been putting into my body. I'm really trying to make better choices, but those sweets get me all the time. Also, I feel hungry all the time, I don't understand. It has really been hard. For this coming week I'm going to try to stay away from sweets and of course continue to work out hard core. I feel like I should only document when there is actual weight loss happening. What do you think or are you liking the weekly updates?
