Getting Summer Ready

North Carolina offers hot weather and baeutiful beaches, and after moving from PA to NC, I feel like I need to get my butt in gear and start to workout and eat "healthier" (mounds of chocolate are still being accounted for!). I have tried the whole "join a gym" trend but the truth is I would buy the membership and resist the urge to get out of bed and actually drive there... so needless to say, no prgress:/
Although I determine to rewrite my gym outlook, and make a change to a home gym. Expensive? Of course! But I have found that walking down the hall to an eliptical is way more practical for me!:) My eleiptical arrived today, and I am so excited to start! Next I will tackle a more "healthier diet," so that I dont completley cancel out the workout with all of the bacon and fast food I crave!:)

It Goes Straight to my Short Term Memory

Finals week is coming up, and I have to admit that I do not have the best studying habit. I study the material but it definitely just goes to my short term memory because after the test I cannot remember a thing that I studied. I am determined to do well on my final exams, so I went in search of studying techniques. I wanted a way to study that is not only efficient but interesting. Lets face it studying is officially boring, I just stare at the words and concepts hoping that something will sink in.
In my desperate search I found this and I hope that it works, I am definitely being optimistic.



Here are the tips...

Cartoon Time!

As a Public Relations major we spend a lot of time talking about social media, and how technology has evolved. I'm not a huge cartoon fan because I never understand the jokes. I found this cartoon and I thought it was really cute, and for once it understand the humor:)

OPI Burlesque

This Friday I decided that it was time to get a fill on my nails. I was at the Mall at Robinson and surprisingly got right in, and did not have to sit and wait for thirty minutes like usual. The reason I am writing about this is because I stumbled across the best nail polish colors. OPI is my favorite nail polish even though it's like $9 a bottle, I consider it worth it because it doesn't chip.
I love when they come out with color based off of box office hit movies, like Shrek and Alice in Wonderland. The mad hatter nail polish is still my favorite! Well apparently OPI came out with a line of colors for the Burlesque and they are so pretty. The colors are vibrant and a lot of them are filled with glitter. I got the bright pink nail polish called "Ali's Big Break."
If you are obsessed with nail polish like I am you have to check theses colors out they are gorgeous and there's colors for every girl! :) They discontinue these colors and it can become impossible to find them, so buy them now while there are still here.

What I want for Christmas

For some reason every year, when my parents ask me what I want for Christmas I can never think of anything! Which is strange because I always want something and I love to go shopping. I think that I need to evolve my technology, so i've decided that this year I want an electronic book. I love to read, but going out and finding books to read to so frustrating to me, I mean really how many books do they expect you to sit and read the inside cover to figure out if you want it. Not to mention hardback books are so expensive and I am not patient enough to wait for the book to come out in soft back and save $10.00. So the first thing on my christmas list is the NOOK, and I am so excited. After reading about it i've decided it is the perfect gift this christmas. Now I just have to find one in Pink:)
