Venting...

So I sat here awhile debating what my next blog should be. I thought about writing about this for awhile but never followed through with it. But I promised myself I would write everything I was feeling no matter what. For awhile now I have had this mentality of “Why me...I don’t understand...I am a good person”!! I sit and watch my friends with their perfect lives and their perfect boyfriends and just don’t get it. I have continued to be hurt over and over and over by guys when I bend over backwards for them. I have been cheated on, lied to, and broken up with all the time when I do nothing but go to the end of the world for them. But the other day I finally realized…I am the lucky one. Even though I have been hurt over and over it has made me the strongest person I could ever become. It has made me realize that I do have AMAZING friends and family who are there to support me no matter what and I am TRULY blessed. I have made some great friends who are going through the same problems and it is great to let go and share our feelings together. It brings an unbreakable bond I have never experienced. It makes me be very open to help people along the way. I have had a lot of people come to me for advice because of my situations. That to me is the best feeling in the world. I love sharing my thoughts and feelings and letting them know they aren’t alone. I have also made one of the best relationships through my struggles and that is with God. I have become so immersed in my faith and it has gotten me through every hard day I have had. So next time you have that “why me” moment please remember you ALWAYS have a great family and friends out there and you will find someone who is worth the wait and all this hurt….and you are in REALLY GOOD HANDS.

Olive Oil...

Olive Oil is a great all purpose remedy!! It’s absorbed quickly and helps lock in moisture in the skin. Olive oil is great for your whole body so keep a little bottle in your bathroom. If you can’t stand the smell you can mix it with a little of your favorite hand, body, or hair lotions.

Hair- If you want to save your dead ends dip them in olive oil for ten minutes before you shower. To thicken your hair soak your locks in ½ to ¾ cup of warm olive oil and wrap your hair in a towel for 30 minutes.

Hands- If you want to soften your hands put a good amount of olive oil on your hands, put on some cotton gloves and sleep with them on.

Lips- Dab a little olive oil on dry and chapped lips.

Face- If you want to soften and moisturize your face massage a small amount of olive oil into your skin. I use some great products from DHC.

Makeup remover- If you don’t want to spend money buying makeup remover just dab some olive oil on a cotton swab and it removes your makeup just as good.

Feet- To heal dry feet rub them with olive oil before bed, put on a pair of socks and leave them on overnight.

Body- Add a few tablespoons of olive oil to your bath at night and it will soften your skin. Men can use it for shaving cream if they have sensitive skin.

Encouraging Words

God knows what's in your heart and what you need before you ask. Even when you don't know for sure, God knows, because He knows you. He knows the outcome of every situation, and He's guiding you even when you might feel that you have lost your way. He knows how much you can bear, and He will give you strength and fill you with His grace and blessings as He walks with you every step of the way.He is surrounding you with His love and holding you gently in the palm of His hand.

The Bachelor Shocker!

Wow…I don’t even really know what to say about the ending of The Bachelor last night. In the finale I didn’t really have a preference for one girl over the other. Throughout the show Melissa did have a one up on Molly though because she was very outgoing and very good with his son. But I thought Molly came around at the end, she is very down to earth and genuine, and I started to like her too. So at the end I didn’t really mind who he chose because he would end up with an amazing girl. When he chose Melissa at the end it was great. I just loved how cute she acted and how great they all looked together. At the after the rose ceremony we all knew something was coming but didn’t know what. I was sweating during the after show…COME ON WITH IT ALREADY! I knew it…he didn’t want to be with Melissa anymore and couldn’t stop thinking about Molly. I just felt awful he had to tell Melissa on national tv! I mean I think I go through hard relationships…but to find out someone you’re engaged to loves someone else and tells you on national tv…ouch. Melissa just looked so angry she couldn’t even be hurt at the time. So then minutes later he tells Molly he broke it off with Melissa and bang there they were kissing. I mean I know you should follow your heart….but literally 5 minutes after you break it off with your finance and get the ring back! THAT IS RIDICULOUS. I mean give it some time for the other partner’s sake! I am anxious to read in a couple weeks from now what has happened to them all.

Things she wishes you knew..

1. I really only want hugs, kisses, and to hold hands…nothing more
2. I will leave if you lie
3. I expect you to call me
4. I love when you come up from behind me and hug me and whisper in my ear
5. If you did something wrong…I seem cool about it…but im not
6. I am more forgiving of you then I really should be
7. I love when you wear backwards hats…so sexy
8. I want to be the best thing that ever happened to you--and for you to recognize this.
9. It's cheating as soon as you're doing something with her that you wouldn't want me to read, hear, or see
10. I will say yes…if you ask me out directly
11. I want to be Kate Beckinsale
12. When you ask for my advice I am very impressed
13. When you don’t make the first move I am very unimpressed
14. When you hold my hand I am in Heaven
15. I need to often hear how you feel about me
16. I want you to know I would love you forever if you allow me

Less Is More

The natural look is the trend for spring 2009! Heavy mascara on the eyes with the use of sparkling and fresh textures to downplay for the natural look. The color for the spring is Gold. Give your cheeks a good bronzed look. Gloss your lips for a natural healthy look..red/pink/or nude is in! I love just waking up putting on mascara,applying a little bronzer to my cheeks, putting some vaseline on my lips and heading to class.
