Health

Normally, you would think i would post something about your health on my beauty blog, but Health effects your life too. I know we've all thought "oh i hate my thighs or if i could just loose five more pounds my life will change forever" the truth is it won't. Self confidence comes from liking your body the way it is. It doesn't mean you can't want to make improvements that boost your confidence, just don't down yourself and you will feel an instant confidence boost. Remember, by eating proportions in moderation and working out daily will help you reach your goals. :)

Birthday!

Today is my birthday and i have to say i got the best present in the world. I got to see my Great Aunt Nellie and she's the most fun you'll ever have :) we share the same birthday, but enough about me. I figured since this is such an important day for me i'll just ask you guys and girls a question. What was your favorite birthday and why? Mine was my 13th when i got a limo that picked me and my friends up at school and drove us to the mall and through the botanical gardens. Then we went home and had the party and most of the 18 girls spent the night :) (best night EVAR) so what is yours and why?

Reputations

Reputations. Now while reputations don't define you, they do define how other people view you. Say if you have a reputation for throwing great parties, then the next party you throw, be it good or not, will have tons of attendees. Making a new reputation for yourself can be done in my opinion, but just make sure before you set out to do so that it's the reputation that you want to be know as. Some people think that a new rep. will make them popular or more attractive. The truth is though it may for a while it's never going to be the real you if it's all just an act. So be you and let that be your reputation. If you don't like your reputation then try swapping it with a new one that you don't mind, just be sure you're not in over your head like the girl in Easy A which was my inspiration on this post. I watched it

global warming

Okay so with all the buzz about global warming i think it's just about impossible for me not to have to talk about it at some point, but honestly this is probably my least opinionated thing for me to talk about. I realize it is our overpopulation and ignorance that has taken a toll on sweet mother earth, but it's so difficult to really say what we can do. Recycling and all of the other things that we do are little things that we do to help the environment  and i believe they are quite effective. Simply buying a filter instead of buying waterbottles helps. Or turning off the sink faucet when your brushing your teeth. Maybe shut off all your lights before you leave the house. It sounds so stupid to think that could help, but if so many people did those little things it turns into something big. Maybe not stopping global warming big, but at least slowing the process. Before now i never really thought to care about global warming, but since this blog I've been forced to look at the growing truth that won't just go away. I made a promise to give any of my readers my opinion and cover the biggest of stories. So try and help everyone in the fight against global warming. I'm not telling you to be a treehugger (though i don't mind those who are) but don't be an ignorant snob  to the idea.
