Last Blog & A New Job!!

2010-04-26T19:53:00.000-07:00

Omg so today I went to my interview at Target and they offered me the job. Of course I accepted it! I went and got the drug test done today as well. It's SO awkward peeing in a cup lol. Anyways I am super excited since I will actually have some money now!

Ummm on another note this is officially my last blog post here on blogger. I decided I am going back to Xanga.com. So yeah if your one of those lurkers reading my blog, well I'm sorry. Soo yeah I guess that's about it.

I have to go up to the DMV tomorrow to get a new ID so that I can start working. I'm really excited, and I hope I like the job. I also have to go shopping for some khakis and red t-shirts, and some comfy sneakers.

So yeah. This is goodbye to my blog spot.

New Blog

2010-04-23T20:58:00.000-07:00

I created a sub blog for my fitness and diet now. If your interested just click more about me and check under my blog listings.

I'm also curious if anyone reads my blogs, and how to get followers. I would like to find people with the same interests as me as well to follow.

I kinda like xanga better because it's easier to connect with people. I might switch back to xanga. Blogger just seems kind of lonely to me.

Umm what else do I want to talk about? Oh yeah I'm going to get a mystic tan at the end of the month. I've never done spray tanning before, so I need tips. I will most likely go to youtube since I probably won't get any responses lol.

So yeah. I think this my be my last personal blog on blogger. I am going back to xanga where I feel more at home. I will still keep my diet and fitness here as an online fitness journal. So if you stumble upon this post then just go to there.

So yeah if anyone is reading I would love some tips on how to make my blogs more interesting and get followers, and spray tanning. Blogging just isn't as much fun when you aren't sharing it with people you can connect with. :(

Something I Made for Mother's Day!

2010-04-22T15:18:00.000-07:00

So my mom really loves faeries, and she used to have a HUGE collection, that is until February of 2010 when my parents house burnt down. My mom and step dad had recently broke up and my mom had gotten an apartment. Well my step dad spent the night at her house because they were going to try and get back together. Well that night was when the house burnt down. It had something to do with the heater. It was horrible. There is nothing left, it literally burnt down to the ground. So needless to say my mom lost everything, and so did my step dad. My mom lost all of me and my sisters baby pictures, her mothers day ring that we got her, her faerie collection, clothes, you name it! My mom has been very depressed since all of this and I really want to make her happy.

So I drew her 2 faerie pictures, that I will print out and frame for her. I drew it first on paper, then scanned it, and colored it in photoshop. They are the same image just one has daytime colors, and the other has night time colors. So here they are! Let me know what you guys think. I just really want to make my mom smile on her special day, and give back something she has lost. I worry about my mom since I don't live with her anymore, and she has been kinda sick... So if this makes her happy I will feel a little more at ease.

Fitness For The Day

2010-04-20T00:09:00.000-07:00

My sister is finally starting to work out with me!!!! So now I am more motivated to work out.

So today we did

1 hour DDR | Cardio
30 min speed walking | Cardio
3 sets 15 arm raise w/ 10lbs | Strength Training/Toning
Multiple sets of sit ups, push ups, and some other random ab exercise such as the bicycle etc. | Toning/Strength Training

Soo yeah. I thought that was pretty good for us today ^_^

Oh and I'm going shopping tomorrow for some exercise equipment, and for an outfit for my interview in 6 days.

Ohhh and when we were just chilling outside, this HUGE garden snake came out of nowhere and just laid on my foot for awhile!!! I was soo scared I couldn't even move. Thank god it finally slithered away!

OHMYGOSH!!!!

2010-04-14T09:54:00.000-07:00

I am sooooo excited!! I called Target today, and I have an interview on the 26th at 9am!!! Finally! I get an interview at last, so I can't blow it! I'm going to go buy a new outfit for it. Something like dress pants and a nice top probably paired with a vest, and heels? I don't know. What should I wear for an interview at Target? I really want to make a good first impression and get hired. So yeah that just made my day! I also called a few of the other places, but the managers haven't looked over my applications yet, so I will call them back in a few days as well. I hope to get at least 1 or 2 interviews set up with other companies, just to be safe. Just because I have an interview doesn't mean I have the job yet. But I hope I will get it! So yeah wish me luck, and if your reading let me know what I should wear to an interview at Target! =D

Grocery Haul

2010-04-12T15:39:00.000-07:00

So I finally went shopping for some healthy foods, and it was actually really cheap! A lot of the things I bought were on sale. I spent $24 at Walmart and this is all the stuff I got!

-1 container of Blackberries (there is a lot in this container!!!)
-1 container of Strawberries (there is a lot in this container too!!)
-5 Oranges
-Bananas
-a big bag of Green Grapes
-4 Cucumbers
-7 Yo plait Strawberry Greek Yogurts
-1 box of Fiber Plus Quaker Oatmeal in Maple & Brown Sugar
-2 boxes of Crystal Light in Lemonade and Pomegranate flavor
-10 cans of Bumblebee Tuna in water
-Lean pockets in Chicken, cheddar and broccoli
-A few Easter candy items that were on sale for my bf

& yeah I think that's about it really. This wasn't like shopping, shopping. It was more like picking up healthy snacks and healthy things to go in stuff or on the side of meals. So yeah! I was pleasantly surprised with how little I spent on everything. Usually when I shop for food at Walmart I spend $50+ So maybe it's cheaper to buy healthy foods? I don't know. Let me know some other healthy foods that you buy, and enjoy! Maybe I will try them too.

Subway

2010-04-10T19:27:00.000-07:00

Omg! So Subway was having this deal today, buy any footlong sub and get the other one free. Well needless to say, I would hate to be an employee there today lol. Like it was INSANE!!! There were so many people at all the Subway shops! Like the first one we went to, people were literally making a line that started in the building, and ended half way down the plaza outside. So yeah.. my bf, sister, and her husband all turned around to hit another Subway. Well when we got there we were like oh cool! There isn't a lot of people here. So we walk in and the manager runs up to us with a coupon for the same deal because they just ran out of bread lmao. So we left and finally went to the Walmart Subway. Well it was pretty busy but we managed to get our subs so it was cool. I got the chicken bacon ranch sub on wheat bread because they were out of the Italian herb and cheese. SO yeah. That was my crazy day with subway!

Spring 2010 Fashion Trends

2010-04-09T21:48:00.001-07:00

Well Spring is officially here, and so are the fashion trends! There's a lot of things coming back with this years Spring fashion, that in my opinion, should never come back! But there is also a lot of really cute fashions as well. Here is a quick color palette for Spring 2010

So as you can see champagne, head to toe grey, yellow, nude, corals, and pinks/light purples are very in! So your good if you wear any of these colors lol. A lot of this years colors are very complimenting on a wide range of skin colors, especially us pale girls. However all colors will look great on any skin tone. Another big thing that is in for Spring of 2010 is prints such as floral, stripes etc. & nautical is very in as well which looks like this...

So there really is a lot of color options, prints, and styles to choose from this Season. I know I personally like a lot of the color options, and I have always had a thing for the nautical look in moderation. A few other Spring trends are military jackets, which I myself am not very fond of, and shoulder pads, which I pray to god will not last! Oh and for shoes you should definitely get some nude pumps like these!

Gladiator sandals, flats, and wedge sandals are also cute. & of course flip flops always work too.

So yeah, that was a brief example of the Spring 2010 fashion trends. If you like this years fashion then comment and let me know which trend[s] you like the most!

Just Reminders For Myself

2010-04-08T18:47:00.001-07:00

Yeah I just thought I would post here to remind myself of the places I have recently applied for a job at. No one reads my blogs anyways so it doesn't matter XD But just in case someone does, you can just ignore this or wish me luck lol.

4/7/10

Gamestop (actually talked and handed this one into the manager.. she was nice lol)
Target (filled this one out on the store computer - so check email)
Dollar Tree
BJ's
K&K
Petco (filled this one out online so remember to check email!)

So remember to call each place at least by.. 4/14/10 (a week later to see if they looked over my apps)

Other places to grab apps next time I go out:

Taco Bell
McDonalds
Burger King
Walmart (online apply again! for the 3rd time!!!)
Dollar General
Subway (print out app and turn it in)
Kmart (not sure if this is online)
Family Dollar
add more later when I think of them.

As you can see I am desperate for a job! Like I REALLY need a job!!! I have been trying to get a job for over a year now, it's just insane that I haven't even been called in ONCE for an interview. -sigh-

Oh and a side note to congratulate myself. I am finally off of soda!!! Like all I want to drink now is water! I tried drinking a soda today, since we got pizza for dinner, and I actually wanted water over the soda! So YAY me!!!! XD

Tresemme Heat Tamer Spray Review!

2010-04-06T20:39:00.000-07:00

So I am here with another product review!!!! It's the Tresemme Heat Tamer Spray! It looks like this to start with...

OK so I LOVE this product. I have been using it for 1 or 2 years now and it is great! It really does protect my hair from heat damage. Like before I started using it my hair was really fried looking every time after I flat ironed my hair, and felt dry. But now my hair is pretty smooth, and soft looking. Um my hair also doesn't feel dry in the shower how it used to before using this product. I also love the smell!! & you can spray as much of this on your hair as you want. It won't weigh it down or make it greasy at all! Another great thing about this product is that it's cheap. I believe it's only like $5, and you can get this stuff almost anywhere. I know Tops sells it, Rite Aid, Walmart, CVS, Walgreen's etc!

So yeah I think this product gets a 10/10!

I actually am going to go buy some more tomorrow since I am out of it. Oh and the only bad thing for me is that I run out of it fast lol. But that's because I use A LOT! I use it in my damp hair before I blow dry, and then afterwards on my dry hair before I flat iron or curl. Sooo yeah haha I love this stuff!

If you liked this review please comment, and try this product!

Awesome Swarovski Crystal Bead Site!

2010-04-04T23:35:00.001-07:00

They also sell earrings, Swarovski earring stud kits, and bracelet/necklace chains. I know I will be ordering from the site to make my own Swarovski necklaces soon!

Oh and it's fun getting candy and spending time with my family. I actually have to drive like an hour away to go eat Easter dinner with my family, sooo yeah. I just thought I would drop in and wish everyone a Happy Easter (not that anyone really reads my blog... but yeah) Like I kinda do feel like I'm just talking to myself. But I don't really care. It lets me reflect on my day, and junk so I like it. ^_^

Random Blogging

2010-04-03T22:16:00.000-07:00

So today was a really nice day again. Sooo like around 5pm a bunch of my friends called and wanted me to come to a bonfire. So I went because the weather was really nice. Well needless to say I was wearing shorts, a tank top and flip flops, and it got REALLY super windy and cold. So luckily I brought a sweater, but my legs were like ice cold by the time I got home. I'm probably going to get sick now ha ha.

It's like 1am now and I should be sleeping. But instead I made a little blend of myself in photoshop. See...

I've kinda been getting back into photoshop and stuff. Like I draw art for a lot of people with it, but I haven't really made any graphics lately. Not that that's really a graphic. It's just like this random thing where I took two pics of me today and blended them together, and added my name as a fade like border XD Sooo yeah.. I guess that's all really.

I watched New Moon again last night. & I actually am starting to think Jacob is REALLY hott!!! Josh would be pissed if he read this lmao! But hey I can't help it, he is. I think Edward is butt ass ugly though (sorry Robert D:) So yup I guess that's all.

I'm not going to post what I ate today because I don't feel like it. So yup, here was my random blog for the day ^_^

Oh and look at this funky hat lmao!!! My sister bought it.

A Little Drugstore Review....

2010-03-30T15:14:00.001-07:00

So I thought I would go ahead and do a little review on some of the products I have mentioned in a few of my posts. OK so as I posted before, I have been having a bit of an issue with acne. Sooo I went to the drugstore and bought Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Foaming face was which looks like this....

Um so basically I would have to say I like this, but I don't love it. My face has cleared up quite a bit. I have been using it for a week everyday. & like I said my acne is clearing up, but it's not all gone. It also says it treats acne before it even emerges. Weeelll that's not true! I broke out on my forehead quite a bit since using it. BUT I am going to give this product at least 2 weeks to work. Because with any acne medication, it takes time to work! Um another thing I don't like about it is that my chin is getting SUPER dried out. & yes I am using lotion after I cleanse sooo I think it may be a little too harsh for my skin. So other than those problem, I give it a 8/10. I mean it has cleared up my skin quite a bit. So if your skin isn't sensitive I would recommend this! Oh and it only cost like $8-9 at Rite Aid

Ok my next product review is on the new COVER GIRL Clean Oil Control foundation which looks like this....

I am REALLY liking this so far because every foundation I have used since my acne outbreak has only made it worse, and this hasn't!!!! Um I also really like it because it's not heavy or cakey, and it has a matte finish. & it stays on all day when I use a pressed powder over it. It also matched my skin perfectly! I am really pale so a lot of foundations like kinda of orangey on me. (my color is ivory for this foundation) The only thing I don't like about it is that the bottle doesn't have a pump. Like you have to kind of tip it upside down on your finger to get it out, and even then you can't really get enough out so you have to do that multiple times. So the bottle gets messy all the time and I constantly have to clean it off. & you don't want to stick your fingers into the bottle because then your getting the product all icky. So I wish they would make this same foundation, but with a pump bottle. Oh & this product only cost I think only $5 at Walmart

OK and my last product is the Aussie DEEEP 3 Minute Miracle Moisture Treatment which looks like this.....

Hmmm well I was kind of disappointed with this product. It definitely doesn't deserve all the hype I have heard a lot of people say about it. OK well let me start with this... My hair isn't super damaged or anything, but I do style with heat everyday, and sometimes my hair does get a little dry (especially after I curl my hair) So I decided to go out and buy this for days after I curl my hair, just to give back some moisture to my hair. I can honestly say my regular (Pravanna or so Sexy) conditioner works better than this lol. Like this stuff didn't even make my hair feel soft. Now I'm not saying this product won't work for your hair type, but for me (medium-thick hair) it really didn't moisturize as well as I thought. I mean like I said my normal everyday hair conditioner works better than this stuff. But for the price it's OK. I believe it was only like $4-5 at Rite Aid. But I guess I will just keep using it with my regular conditioner till it's gone. Um the bottle design is quite nice though. That I have no complaints about, and I do like the smell.

So that's about it for my review on these products. Overall I am happy with 2/3 so at least I didn't waste my money! I'm one of those people who can't really afford the high end face cleansers, makeup etc, but you CAN find nice things at the drugstore. But of course when I have some extra money I will be buying the Clinique foaming face wash set. Just because it has it for my exact skin type and it has amazing reviews.

So I hope you enjoyed this review!

Lots of Brainstorming to do!

2010-03-29T20:16:00.000-07:00

Well I'm back home from my hometown!

& I have been thinking a lot lately about making a website and selling jewelry, bath stuff such as bath bombs, oils, and just other little odds and ends.
All homemade of course.

However, I don't know if people would go for that stuff, how to price it, and how to advertise. I mean I could put the website here on my blog and show you guys some of my latest work, buuut like I kinda forgot about this blog until today....

So please comment on this if your reading it!

I would like to know other people's opinions on this!

I wonder if people can even comment on my blogs or if anyone even reads them too ^_^;

- Rose

Home Sweet Home

2010-03-21T17:46:00.000-07:00

So I'm back in my hometown because I am watching my grandma's pets while she is in Florida. & tonight me and Josh went over to my moms house for dinner and she made Pol ska!!!! It's one of my favorite meals ever!!!! If you don't know what Pol ska is it's basically a dish made of Italian sausage and sauerkraut. It's just SO yummy!!!!! ^_^;

But it feels nice being back home. My parents house burnt down so I can never truly go home anymore, but I feel right at home in my moms new apartment. So yeah. It's nice to be back after not being here for about 7 months.

Me and my mom are having a girls day tomorrow too so I'm excited!

- <3 Rose

Anniversary!!!

2010-03-20T20:18:00.000-07:00

Today was me and Josh's 4 year anniversary!!!!! I can't believe we have been together this long! We didn't really do anything extravagant or anything, but we still had fun. We went shopping, and visited some friends and family. & then we got home we ordered like $50 worth of Chinese food. But I didn't even eat that much, so I know what's for lunch tomorrow and possibly dinner XD So yeah.. I was excited.

Oh and I bought that Aussie 3 minute miracle deep conditioning stuff. I'm gonna try it tonight and see if I like it. My hairs not damaged, but I like to help make it super soft!

I also bought um.. I think it's Nutrogena foaming face wash for acne stress control. I'm gonna try that out as well, and see if it helps. My right cheek and my chin seem to breakout all the time, and I don't know why. I never had acne when I was in school, but now I do which sucks! If that doesn't work I think I want to go to a dermatologist and find out if I have adult acne or something :/

If you know any products that work well please comment on this and let me know!
