Chilly Nights and Spooky Sights...October Rewind!

Hey guys!  Guess what time it is?! Favorites!!!! Let's party together :).  Another wonderful month we've made it though!  One more month closer to Thanksgiving and Christmas!  By this time next month I'll be singing along to Jingle Bell Rock on the radio! 

I'm sitting here with my big cup o' peach tea all comfy cozy!  It's a nice fall night down here in the south.  So, before we get into all the fun things I've been loving this month, I have an important announcement.  Do you remember that other blog I had?  The one that had all of the recipes and tutorials and stuff?  Well, it's been at the spa getting a makeover and it'll be back soon!  I can't wait for you to see everything I've been working on!

Alright, so let's just get into it!

1.  Drink

So, if you haven't noticed, I like tea a lot.  Especially peach tea.  We've been getting this fruit tea sampler from Celestial.  There is cherry, raspberry, peach, and probably something else.  It's amazing.  It smells like heaven peed in a cup. Just kidding. That's gross.  More like peaches and goodness.  Its perfection.


2.  Song

Well this has become a very hard decision.  Incredibly difficult.  After lots and lots and lots of thought I think I've narrowed it down.  I know this song is pretty old. but it is perfect.  Future husband - we are playing this at our wedding!  This song is called Marry You by Bruno Mars.  I love his voice and all of his songs! This one is no exception.


3.  YouTuber

This next favorite of mine is so incredibly talented!  His name is Arthur Garros.  He does covers of songs on his channel.  I love his voice and music taste.  I'm going to leave his version of The A Team by Ed Sheeran below.  Remember the guy I talked about from my last post? Yes, that guy!  I'll also link his channel if you want to subscribe or check out his other stuff.


Story Time!!! So I was on my Twitter one day the other week and stuff when I followed Arthur.  I had just found his channel and was really enjoying his music.  When he tweeted about his new cover, I decided to tweet him saying how much I liked it.  Then, this miracle happened.  He retweeted AND tweeted me.  I was literally running around my room like a maniac.  It was priceless.  I even took a pic (notice the 1D background...)  Perfection.  Oh, Mom, that's the good news I never got to tell you.


4.  Movie

Usually, I don't watch enough movies to even post about one.  However, this month I did watch some. Aside from all of the Halloweentowns, I watched a movie called She's the Man.  It's got Amanda Bynes and Channing Tatum in it.  We actually watched this movie in Language Arts class, since it is based off a Shakespeare book.  We are reading Twelfth Night in class and my teacher thought it would be a good idea to watch it.  Aside from Channing being shirtless in almost every scene, it was hilarious.  I couldn't contain myself.  I'll leave the trailer below.  I don't think it was a great choice to show in an 8th grade classroom, but I've seen worse... keep that in mind.




5.  Food

I think I have mentioned this in a recent post, but I'll tell you again.  I have been completely obsessed with these seasonal pumpkin spice waffles from Eggo.  It tastes sooo good.  If you put some syrup on it, you will fall in love.  I'm afraid that they will go away after this month!  Last time we went shopping, we stocked up on them :).  I don't know what I'll do when they're gone.





Well, it looks like I've gone over everything!  Let me know what some of your favorite stuff from this month was!  I'd love to know!

Happy Election Day & Much Love,

September Rewind.

Happy Friday!!! I know this is going up a little later than expected, but I've been super busy with school and stuff.  I hope you are mercifully enough to forgive me!

Well, it's that time of the month again.  September is over and now it's officially October!!!!!! Happy October!  I have to say that September is my least favorite month of the year.  I mean for one thing, school is back.  That means homework, projects, tests, and more tests.  In fact, I should be studying for one right now.  I guess you can tell how my priorities line up now a days. :) #yolo

Even though September isn't my favorite month, there was still plenty to love about it. Trust me. 

Well, for one thing, the new One Direction song came out this month (totally fangirling!). I linked it in my last video, but if by some chance you failed to watch it, I'll link it below.



Alright so let's get into it!

1. Song
Yeah, I have been loving 'Live While We're Young', but since that didn't come out until the very end of the month, I wanted to include one that has been on since the beginning of the month.  That would have to be 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together' by T. Swizzle :)  One thing I love about this video is that it was filmed in one take.  The little nerdy side of me jumps for joy when I hear that.  Also, I love how this song is just so in your face.  Yeah we are never ever getting back together, like ever!



2.  Quote
One thing about me you might not know is that I'm obsessed with quotes.  I could spend hours on Pinterest 'repin'ing pins with quotes.  It's an obsession.  When I was out at Office Max a little while ago I saw this notebook with this quote on it, and absolutely had to get it.  I'm pretty sure it was made for me.  Plus, guess who said it??? Dr. Seuss!!!!  I actually changed it to my description on Twitter.


3.  App
I'm not usually the app kind of girl.  I like would prefer listening to music over playing a game.  However, there has been this one game that recently I've been loving.  It's called Unblock Me (free).  I'm too cheap to buy the full version :).  Basically, it's like a puzzle made of blocks and you have to move around the blocks to get the red one through the whole.  Okay, I'm not making sense.  Let's just insert a picture, shall we?


So in order to fully comprehend the extent of my love for this game, I must admit to something.  I have completed over 400 levels of this game.  Most of the levels take some time, too.  I still have at least 400 more to go until I must buy the full version (or just replay the first 800).

4. Social Network Thingy
So in the past month, I hopped on the whole Twitter bandwagon, finally.  I know I'm late, but better late then never.  I love it so much more than Facebook!  Its just so much more aesthetically pleasing to me.  I'm pretty sure you should sign a waiver before signing on that says, "We are not responsible for any lost time. - Twitter"  That would also be helpful for Pinterest.  Ahh, I could spend hours on there...  It's always fun to follow your favorite artists and bands to keep up with them, along with those random people who post funny quotes.  I dig those :)

The only thing that really bugs me about Twitter (well, the people on it) is the whole 'follow for a follow' thing.  That bugs me soooo much.  I must admit I post on there a whole lot.  I mean, there are definitely people out there worse than me, but by my standards, I put out a lot.  If you out there have a Twitter, go follow me here!

5.  TV Show
After like three months of it being gone, Bones is back.  YESSSSSSSS!  I missed it so much over the summer, and I am so glad it's back!  If you don't know what Bones is, it's a show that follows a forensic anthropologist named Temperence Brennan (aka Bones), and her friends and coworkers while they work on different murder cases.  The thing that's so different about it is that the show focuses more on the science of solving murders rather than the investigative side.  So pretty much, more bones.  It's really addicting and fun to watch.  Plus, Bones and Booth (FBI detective) just had their baby, and she's adorable.  I'll show you this past season's (7th) cover art thingy.


6.  Drink
Ohh goodness there is just so much good food on this earth.  How can I ever decide my favorite?  Well I've lately been into a lot of fall things like pumpkin drinks and desserts.  In fact I made my first pumpkin pie of the season only a few days ago.  This is going to sound crazy, but I'm once again addicted to hot chocolate.  Specifically, salted caramel hot chocolate.  I may make a little post about it when it becomes closer to winter.  It's pretty much exactly what it sounds like.



Well this has been a lot shorter than I was afraid it might be.  Like I said before, I'm so excited to blog about the upcoming months and spend some time with the chilly months.

I'll be putting up a fair post FAIRly soon :).  tehehehe I crack myself up.  We had so much fun last night!  I miss it already!  

I hope you're having a wonderful day, and I'll talk you guys soon!

Much Love,

August Rewind

What? August is over? This is terrible!  Where did my summer go?

Actually, I am pretty ready for cozy nights, s'mores, fairs, and hot chocolate.  Oh and let's not forget BIG SWEATERS. Yeah, I'm pretty excited.  I mean I already bought two knit sweaters.  And it's still like 80 degrees most days.

Right now it is storming, so I thought that I should do a blog post.  I think that blogging has become my favorite thing to do.  It's just so relaxing and happy :)

Anyways, I thought it would be fun to do a little August wrap up.  For those of you who don't know what that is, it's just a few things that I've personally been loving this month.

1. Verse
Jeremiah 29:11

2. Snack
Special K Popcorn Chips
Okay, so these are like the most wonderful snack in the world.  It's like popcorn, in chip form.  This particular kind tastes like kettle corn.  I love how light it is!  Plus, you can eat 28 of them and it's only 120 calories!


3. Song
Not Over You - Gavin DeGraw

4. Trend
Pastels!  During the summer months, I loved any light pastel color.









5. Quote
 Just keep swimmin'
Has anyone seen Finding Nemo in 3D yet??? I really want to!



6. Prank
Invisible Rope Prank - I need to try this one!



7.  Pictures
Favorties of mine...








Now some that I didn't take...









So that's what I've been obsessed with this month.  What about you?  I love making these posts, so I hope you enjoyed!

Much Love,
