Productive || My Day


Hola friends, today was super productive. After I woke up and had my coffee, I opened my planner and made a to-do list for the day. I'm happy to say that I completed everything on my list!

I cleaned my room. I didn't just shove things away so they couldn't be seen, I LEGIT CLEANED. I de-cluttered a lot, threw away a lot of silly stuff I didn't need, then hung my piles of clothes that had built up over the days. After that I dusted and topped off all the cleaning with vacuuming and BAM, I was done,

After checking that off my list, I ran a few errands; a trip to the library, the grocery, and to uni to rent some textbooks.

Then I got home and went out to a late lunch with my family at Olive Garden. I ate a light meal; the traditional salad (yum) and a grilled chicken with roasted vegetables. Then we went to Sears to get new glasses! I ordered an awesome pair of tortoise frames that are speckled brown, yellow, and a bit of purple. I am psyched about them!

The night before, my friends and I planned a picnic at the local park. So I took my family and we spent the rest of the day outside playing sand volleyball. It was a blast. The weather was great too. The forecasted showers never came.

Now I'm snug in bed, possibly watching YouTube while typing this haha. I may also sneak in some browsing on Amazon before falling asleep.
Tomorrow is going to be a huge day! My three best friends and I are going to see One Direction, live in concert!!!!
I'll be sure to tell you all about it in tomorrow's post.

Proud Owner of New Wheels || Advice

My brother is getting the car I drove. No worries, it's because I got a new car :) On my way to work this morning, I was thinking about what to tell him about being a car owner. And there's a lot to know! Having your own car is the first step into independence as an adult. It's thrilling and freeing! Here's my advice on what you should know as a new driver!


  • Have Fun ~ Go places. Peal off that dang "STUDENT DRIVER" sticker and go. Weather you're alone or with friends, go! You're an adult now, you don't have to stay at home or rely on someone else to give you a ride. As YouTuber Fun For Louis would say "Live the Adventure".
  • What's That? ~ No one wants to open their trunk one day and see random stuff you never knew was there. Know what's in your car, and know where it is. If you sneeze, you want to know where the dang tissues are! If you get into a difficult situation, you want the reassurance of knowing that you're prepared. Know where all the car's legal docs are. Keep them all together. I have mine in a bright red folder, so that if anything where to happen, it can be spotted easily. These tips are for your sake and your passengers' sake.
  • Be Conscious ~ Get to know the feel of your car, how well it reacts to how YOU drive. Discover your car's limits, safely! If you have a lot of people in the car with you, make sure they all know that they have to listen to you, your the driver, their lives are in your hands, LITERALLY. No pressure, haha, it's better to get scared now and be conscious, then take everything too lightly.
  • Ask Yourself ~ Do I like music while I'm driving? If so, how loud? Do I like the windows open/closed? Would I mind people eating in my car? If so, am I prepared to clean their mess?
  • Go Shop ~ There are some essentials you need in your car, for you and your passengers. Other than the emergency stuff, you need everyday stuff: tissue box, bags for garbage, and wipes. These are the essentials that not many people think about because they are simple necessities, "the simple bear necessities...".
  • Stay Clean ~ my brothers are notorious for leaving crap in my car, from tissues to wrappers, to clothes, to who knows what! People judge your ride, what's inside reflects to them what kind of a person you are. Yup, it's true. So tell your passengers to pick up after themselves!
These tips are things I have learned over my years of driving, no one told me about this stuff, I learned on my own. If I was in your shoes, I would want to be told about these things. So this is for you guys! Go, welcome to adult hood.
