So, I am going to be going to Vegas in a couple of months and on a beach vacation a month after that. Summer weather is coming, aka swimsuit weather. That last statement makes me depressed just thinking about it. Last night, I went to walmart and bought a weight scale.
Stood on the scale, instant depression. I got in my car and went to the gym the second I stepped down. If I didn't get to the gym quickly I was going to lock myself in my room forever. I am so embarrassed about how much I weigh. So, because of bathing suit weather and because I am HUGE I have to lose weight.
I have always been the type of person to have to watch what I eat. I have never been the naturally skinny girl. I have also came to realization that no matter what I do, I will never have a flat stomach. Unless I became some kind of fitness guru, which is never going to happen. lol.
Therefore, I am going to start working out and follow with a better diet. Wish me luck and if anyone has any tips. Please Share!!!

Tinder.
Okay, I have mentioned tinder before but I think it is time to post some of the messages I have got.
I have had tons of matches, (no boyfriends or dates), just matches. Tinder is weird to me. I honestly don't know if I would ever go on a date with someone I met from tinder. That being said, It is very fun to get on there and play the game.
So, I have got lots of normal messages from men. However, I have got a couple not so normal messages.
The first and probably the strangest message I have got was from a young gentleman named Colton.
Colton sends me a youtube video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocGiulPm3IU
and then says "this could be us." The video is Lemme Freak by Lil Dickey. Yup. If you have never heard the song, its a very interesting one. Colton then preceeds to tell me he can do most of those things. Most?! C'mon man, what a dissapointment.
The next message was from a hottie named Joe.
Joe: You should probably not talk to girls who meet up with dudes at TGIF.
Me: what
Joe: lol sorry, whats up
Joe maybe hott but he definitely needs to work on the pick up lines.
The last most recent message if from Mr. Jesse.
Jesse sends: After a brief look at your tinder pictures, I have already married and divorced you in my mind. I just want to thank you for all the wonderful memories. There will always be a special for you in my heart..... P.S. You can keep the beach house. But i want the dog and the movies back.
Me: well neat
Jesse: Lol guess you're happy with the beach house? How was your day?
(at this point I decided to play along)
Me: my day was good but not near as good as it would have been if i was at the beach house
As soon as I say this dude stopped replying. I guess he was done with the game.
My best friend said "tinder is like the comic con of freakazoids." I find this to be a very true statement. At comic con there is a few normal, not so extreme people but mostly extreme, insane individuals. Tinder has a couple normal people, most are freaks.

post Valentine's Day.
Valentine's Day is over and I hope everyone truly enjoyed their day. I did just as I said I was going to but let me just tell you about my weekend in order. Btw, I have one single girlfriend and that's who I spent my entire weekend with.
Friday, I met two of my close girlfriends for margaritas. Side note: Margs are not my drink of choice but I'm slowly starting to like them. They're just so fun to drink with girlfriends. We went to this fun little Mexican restaurant and got drunk on margs and laughs. Then, me and one of the girls continued our Friday night ritual of going to these guys apartment and hanging out and drinking. We end up staying the night there.
Saturday, I had to work early in the morning. Barely make it there in time because I stayed out of town. I wore the same clothes to work I wore out that night. Yes, I was that girl.
Saturday night, I had a wonderful valentines evening. I hung out with my closest single girlfriend. We watched the movie, If I Stay. Great movie, tear jerker, probably not the best pick for Vday but whatevs. Then, I made chocolate covered strawberries and got the wine out. We drank a bottle of Stella Rosa Peach and hot tubbed. Side Note: Stella Rosa is the best wine there is.
We finished up our weekend Sunday at the horse races. We lost on every race we bet on but we drank a little beer and had a great time with the friends we hung out with on Friday. After the horse races we went to dinner and a movie.
It was such a wonderful, fun, relaxing, exciting weekend. I didn't once think about how lonely or sad I was. I relished in all the love I had for myself and the people around me.
Super Plus: an ice storm hit and I didn't have to work Monday or today :)

valentines day.
Well it has come the time for all people in a relationship to be super mushy and super in love while all the single people are super bitter.
This blog is to help single people not be bitter and to not be this guy.
I have been single the last 3 or 4 Valentines days but who is keeping track. It has taken me a LONG time to be okay with V-day and this is the first year I actually am. Normally by this time, I am all in my feelings, crying, and thinking to myself no one will ever love me. I am also pretty angry at my friends who have significant others. How stupid of a holiday where all you do is order flowers or buy chocolates. Why do people even celebrate it? What is the point?
This year I have decided that is just silly behavior. I don't know if it's because I have matured or if I am just numb to V-day. LOL. However, I have decided for us single girls out there this is not a time to be sad. We should be happy for all of our friends. It brings your friends down if you are negative /bitter towards v-day because then they feel like they can't share their happiness with you.
SO, this Valentines Day make it be all about you. Plan a night alone or with other single girlfriends and completely treat yourself. Go get a pedicure and manicure, by yourself chocolates and ice cream, rent a movie, order take in, go out with your girls to eat or to a club. Valentines is about love and that doesn't always have to be love with a significant other. Spend this valentines loving yourself or spending time sharing love with your girlfriends.
If you do this, then when your friends in a relationship try sharing there plans you won't be bitter. You will be excited because you will also get to share the big fun night you will have as well.

flat tires & freezing weather
Let me set the scene for ya:
It is a normal Friday night and about 30 degrees outside.
I am leaving a ball game that was in the middle of nowhere, following my family in their car. I drive about 6 miles and my car starts jerking to the right. Flash my lights at the fam and pull over. What do ya know I got a flat tire. Only of my family members phones had cell service, barely. Call a parent from the ball game and he says he will come help us.
A good 30 minutes later, the guy shows up. He changes my tire and puts my spare on my car. However, my spare is flat too. At this point, we have to find service on the cell phone again and call someone else to bring us some air or fix a flat or something. We waited on this guy for a good 30 minutes as well. Finally, put air in my spare tire and head home driving 45 mph the whole way. What should have been a normal 45 minute drive home, ended up taking about 2- 2.5 hours.
The moral of the story? Everyone should carry a can of fix-a-flat in their car, to avoid waiting 2 hours in the freezing cold!

time to get crafty.
So, anyone who knows me knows that I am not the tidiest person around. I do love a clean room and made bed BUT that rarely happens. My room/ bathroom is never just down right disgustingly dirty. However, there is most likely clothes. everywhere.
Here is my problem, I have WAY too much of pretty much everything. I have too many clothes, t-shirts, scarves, shoes, and really anything else you can think of. With too much stuff and not near enough room, I have decided to turn to my good friend, Pinterest.
I decided to share some of the pins on here that I think will be most helpful!
http://www.buzzfeed.com/twopoodles/15-lifehacks-for-your-tiny-bathroom-9g24
Okay, so this is just a really good article. I have so many random little items in my bathroom that just float around on the sink. My very favorite thing from this article is to get the magnet strip for bobbie pins, genius. If you are girl then you know the struggle of trying to keep up with bobbie pins.

So, this link shows a bunch of ways to organize jewelry. There is a lot of really cute, pretty simple ideas. My favorite is this animal one.

This link is more about kitchen organization. I thought this was really neat because I would have never thought to use a magazine holder for canned goods.
Remember when in doubt, pinterest it out!

2015.
Hello! I'm back and its a new year!! Hello 2015!
My holiday break from work was somewhat chaotic but I loved being out. Today is my first day back and it was extremely hard to get here.
I spent Christmas with my family and it was very low key and chill which was just what I needed. The next 3 days we spent our time re-watching the Harry Potter movies in order. I consider myself HP obsessed, i love it. I have a Pottermore account and was sorted into the Slytherin house.
My new years was very fun. I got to spend it with an old friend and anytime we get together it is a blast.
So here is my "New Year, New Me"
Everyone does it, sets high goals at the beginning of the year that are most likely not accomplished.
However, I want to try to be more positive. I use to be an extremely positive person and I feel like the past 3-4 months I just haven't been. God has been testing me today on my first day back but nevertheless I will not be negative!
The second thing I want to do is ride my bicycle and get some exercise in. I know typical new years resolution. However, I got a super cute bicycle for Christmas and I really want to put some use to it.
So Happy 2015, let's make it the best yet!!!
