What I learned in 2021

-

My favorite post of the year! 2021 has been just a learning year for me. Still figuring myself and my life out. In year 2 of a pandemic (yes everything is reopened in the US, but the virus still exists). But as per usual, here is the list of things I've learned in 2021. Enjoy!

  1. If angel food cake is on sale, don't buy it. It's probably gross.
  2. Coffee is from the devil. Don't drink it.
  3. If you plan on taking melatonin before bedtime, take it 2-3 hours before going to sleep. Your body will thank you the next day.
  4. I will tell people that I will not do something, convince myself I won't do it, and still do the complete opposite.
  5. Don't buy a $10 curling iron. It will be garbage.
  6. So much can change in a month.
  7. Just because you got away with parking in one lot without getting a parking ticket, it doesn't mean you can park there again and NOT get a ticket the following time.
  8. Always carry around a coozie. and chapstick. and deodorant. You never know when you'll need it.
  9. Stop saying yes to events you don't actually want to attend.
  10. Apparently wearing a piece of cloth on your face to protect yourself and others from a deadly virus is an extremely difficult task and will cause people to protest and complain.
  11. H&R Block is garbage. Do you taxes somewhere else.
  12. Tax season in America is a total scam.
  13. Democrats and Republicans are both equally trash and I don't think it's talked about enough.
  14. CVS and their discounts are VERY underrated. #notsponsored #wishiwas
  15. It takes roughly 50 minutes to drive I-285 all the way around Atlanta without traffic.
  16. Use both Google Maps and Waze while driving anywhere in a larger city.
  17. Tracking my sleep has made me realize I don't sleep much.
  18. Did not realize a re-release of an album would affect me on an emotional level and it definitely did. *cough Red (Taylor's Version) cough*
  19. I am officially at the age where I need a week to recover from any kind of social gathering that has alcohol.
  20. I also need at least 2-3 days to physically and mentally prepare for any social gathering that has alcohol and will require me to stay out late.
  21. Indian people do the absolute most for weddings and I think I'm over it.
  22. I'm a decent cook. I just don't like cooking.
  23. Didn't think it was possible, but you CAN meet someone that is different from anyone you've ever met in the best way and can completely throw you off.
  24. I have too many clothes and shoes.
  25. Cost of living continues to go up and paychecks do not.
  26. Having a travel set of toiletries all ready to go saves so much time when it comes to packing.
  27. Frozen meals have way more calories than I thought.

Hope 2022 treats you guys well!

Olly Undeniable Beauty HSN Vitamin Review (with before and after photos!)

I have always had pretty clear skin. If I ever had breakouts, which was more frequent in college, I was able to eventually pinpoint what exactly caused it, and it would usually be linked to stress or a certain food. And it was usually like 2-3 breakouts, so nothing like super crazy. The breakout would happen, I would freak out for a second (probably post a snapchat about it 🙊), and then my skin would go back to normal. But in the past 5ish months, my skin has changed. The breakouts have been more regular and my skin isn't as smooth as it used to be. I have been trying to figure out why because there hasn't been any significant change in the products I use or the food I eat. Like I was going to post an updated skin care routine and then my skin went crazy and I scrapped the idea (for now) . But I was open to using some kind of supplement that would help improve my skin and hair.  Well, mostly my skin, but I wasn't opposed to hair growth. The vitamins I originally want

Easy 70s Halloween Costume

We made a girls trip to New Orleans and wanted to dress up for Halloween while we were there! But we didn't want to do anything super crazy or expensive, so we decided to go as hippies/70s girls. Or how most people will call it.... #BASIC. Where we got our stuff: Tie-dye shirts - Me and my friend Brandee went to Hobby Lobby and bought t-shirts and Tulip brand Tie Dye. Literally everything we bought was on sale and cheap, so highly suggest going to Hobby Lobby if you decide to make t-shirts! They also have 40% coupons on their website which works on pretty much anything that doesn't already have a discount. Glasses, Necklaces, Headbands - Ordered a set of four glasses, necklaces, and headbands from Amazon for $14.99 How we made the t-shirts: I might make a separate blog post on this because there are different ways to get the perfect tie-dye look and I'm still curious to find out how to get perfection because ours weren't perfect (close to perfect,

Best Affordable Makeup (under $15!!!)

A perk of being poor is searching for the best cheap makeup. And that's what I have done. Everything here is under $15 and stuff that I reach for frequently. PSA: I've also talked about some of these products numerous times, so I'm sorry about that, but you will at least understand and hopefully believe me when I say I LOVE these products!! And some of them have flaws, but I think it's 100% worth it for the price and I will go into detail about that as well! Prices vary from store to store. From my shopping experiences, Walmart has always been the cheapest, so most of the prices I've listed are Walmart prices (unless it can't be found there). If you decide to purchase from Ulta, CVS, or any other store, it might be slightly more pricey, so just keep that in mind! But everything can be found for under $15!! Photo Focus Foundation || Wet n Wild || $4.68 I don't use foundation often, but when I do, it's this foundation. It has buildable coverage
