Bring on the Holiday Spirit!

So I sit here and type to you while I eat a delicious teriyaki bowl in the freezing weather Mesa has suddenly decided to throw out.

I've got my blanket, my 4 peppermint oreos and my laptop sitting right next to me. Life is good right about now!

Teriyaki Bowl + Oreos = Deliciousness... Sike.

Well it's good right now but I'm sure the combination wont settle well.

It's about dang time it gets cold tho right?! But holy cow I don't know how I do it. I am such a sucker to the cold haha! Waking up in the 40's is plenty cold enough for me!!

On my way to school.

But mmm how I love it. It truly makes it feel like Christmas time and what is better then that?!

Well..My personal favorites for this winter season so far have been:

1. Peppermint Oreos and Milk! Mmm baby!

2. Cranking the heater in my car (which I swear to say, Chevys have some of the best AC/heat I have ever felt)and blasting it on my face to the point I almost wanna sweat. Then I blast the cold. I am weird I know.

3. Waking up and hating my life because it is freezing and wanting nothing else but to stay in bed and sleep. I then leap out of bed, run to the bathroom as fast as I can and turn on the bath and sit in there till I get warm and cant stand it any longer. At that moment in time I think my life is pretty dang good!

4. Rolling out of bed and throwing glasses on, no makeup, and a baggy sweatshirt and off to school I go. Converses and toms become my life and nothing else matters but feeling warm and looking like crap. I love it!!

5. Putting up my Christmas birthday tree in my room to bring in the holiday spirit. I happen to be a Christmas baby so I set up a tree in my room to get me in the birthday mode. My mom has been on a roll with getting me new ornaments for my birthday tree. I love it so much! I have the best mom in the world if you all didn't already know!!

6. Jamming out to the same Chrismas tunes on the radio every time I am in the car. I am sick of them already but still play them everytime I get in the car.

Alyssa and I at work bringin in the Christmas spirit!

7. Cuddling up in a nice warm blanket and letting the freezing cold hit the tip of my nose and ears. As long as my toes are warm I am good to go.

8. Using the greatest website ever made..PANDORA.

Dear Pandora,

You rock my world. Thank you for branching out my music likings. Who ever knew I could love oldies and rock so much. Thank you!

Sincerely Yours,

Me

New Finds: Jaymay- Gray and Blue

Molding Peaches- Anyone Else But You

9. Being with my family and watching my adorable babies run around, scream, and laugh! Life doesn't get much better when you are around the people you love.

Those are just a few of my favorites so far. Life is good. If the worst thing I am enduring is waking up early in the cold, life is pretty dang good :)

Oh how I love the HOLIDAY SEASON. I never want it to end!!

-------------

China is soon approaching. I am getting nervous but crazy excited. I have such a desire to travel and see the world. China first.

Next on my list is Africa.

Then Europe.

I will get there just watch me!!

CHINA.

Hope you are all enjoying your cold weather and holiday season where ever you may be. I wish you all a wonderful holiday season. I will tune in later this week to update you more on my crazy life. It is good. Oh so good.

Changy Rearangy Take 3

Ok so I changed my bed again...

Got a new grey pillow.

I think it makes it perfect for the bed and was exactly what I needed.

I enjoy sleeping in this bed!!

My mom also got my a new light for the back corner. It is fabric with flowers. Let me know if you like this one better then the Ikea one that I had up :)

Belieber..

So I have a problem...

I find songs I like and want to listen to them ALL THE TIMMMEE. Then they get old so fast! I hate it! So I am trying out a new solution. If I find a song I like, I will share it with all of you but not over do the song by instantly burning a cd with it on and keeping it in my car, or putting it as my background music on my blog. Ha! I tend to over do it :)

Anywho I am lovin this song today. Ladies and gentlemen, Ive got the Bieber Fever. Enjoy :)

Here I am!

So I have been MIA for a while.. But suprise, here is am!

I have been up to a whole lot of....you name it!

Was risky business for Halloween. Went to a party and had a blast!!

Broke it down on the dance floor and was workin the night away!! :)

Got a new bedspread! I feel like the pictures doesn't give it justice but when you walk into my room, my bed honestly looks like a piece of heaven. Its like you just wanna run and lay in it and sink into the comfort of this beautifulness! I love it. I am into very neutral colors these days. I want all whites and cremes and grays.

I am loving it.

Here are some other features in my room that I LOVE.

My initial. A for Alexis.

Bought from Urban Outfitters.

My basket of mirrors. Love iiitttt.

Throw from Ikea. It is perfect to add some texture to the bed. I am in love and think you MUST get one too!

This candle honestly makes me feel like the holidays are coming. There is nothing like a spotless room that smells fresh and clean. Oh how i love the holidays...!

Macintosh candle from Domestic Bliss. Also in the glass jar are giant staples found from the one and only...Goodwill!

Ah I love life right about now!

Sorry I have been so lame and haven't posted in a while. At times i feel like i dont even have time to breathe. But life is good. It is so so good. I am enjoying where I am at and excited for my new adventures to come!

A new twist

Ok first and foremost, I am obsessed with another song. Boyce Avenue is their name. They do a lot of covers and I LOVE it!!! So I bring you another song by them. I am a huge fan!

Ladies and gentlemen i present you with......

Boyce Avenue- Will you be there (Michael Jackson- Free Willy)

Next I am adding a new twist to my blog.

Soo my life pretty much revolves around school. I am in another anatomy class and I learn so many interesting/disgusting/fascinating things about our bodies. So I have decided it would be fun to share with all of you my knowledge on these interesting topics. It actually quite intriguing!

Each week I will post a new fact about our body that I learned in class. Please remember, it is the study of the anatomy so it may get graphic at times. It will be fun to learn random little facts about ourselves. Beware everyone....!!!

So to start off nice and slow, here is

Random Fact #1

Humans shed about 600,000 particles of skin every hour, about 1.5 pounds per year. By 70 years of age, an average person will have lost 105 pounds of skin.

Ha, gross but so interesting to me!! I am honestly so fascinated by the body. I think it is out of this world! Which is why i am going to share some of my knowledge to all of you!!

Have a wonderful rest of the weekend!

xoxo

Lovin in.

So I am obsessed with this song right now... It is a MILLIONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN times then the real version! For reals. He rocks my world. I am sure you will love it just as much as I do! Enjoy :)

O-R-G-A-N-I-Z-E-D

O-R-G-A-N-I-Z-A-T-E-D is my middle name these days. I am really becoming a clean freak. It's like when I see clutter it makes me sick. I am trying to be very organized and have a place for everything. That is key!

Well here is some of my OCDness coming through...

Necklaces.

watches nice and neat in a cute basket.

Inside a drawer...

Make up in one basket. Hair items in the other..:)

Rings.

All my bracelets in a basket.

Inside the armour. Organized babyyyy!

Inside my dressor. This is my tank top drawer.

I have white, blacks, and colored piles.

Ha i am a joke I know!

-------

So I had a funny experience the other day. Reed and I went to a car place to pick up his car that was being worked on and he needed me to go with him to help. Well I decided to make things interesting so I saw a neck brace laying around the house (who has a neck brace laying around?!) and I decided to wear it out of the house to try and embarrass Reed. Well I looked like a straight tool but it was hilarious. I was getting the stares like you wouldn't believe. Come on people, its a neck brace!! Anyway, it turned out Reed wasn't the one embarrassed..I WAS!! I didn't know if I could go out in public in it. I didn't want anyone to know it was me!! So there you have it, things turned against me and I ended up embarrassing myself. See for yourself....

Lesson learned: Don't go out in public wearing a neck brace, it's embarrassing.

Good times.

Have a great weekend everyone! I will update on mine Monday. :)
