Living Alone

A plus is that I can eat and watch whatever I want, whenever I want. A minus is that I can’t open jars to make the things I want to eat…

Dreaming of Candy

All I want is candy, all the time. Even when I’m in the groove with a well balanced diet and exercise, I feel like the sugar craving for me never subsides! Does this happen for anyone else? I have tried alternatives like drinking a smoothie, or eating watermelon (fact: best fruit ever), but that does […]

PlayStation Productions

According to Hollywood Reporter’s Patrick Shanely, Sony has expanded to include a new production studio: PlayStation Productions. The article said that PlayStation Productions will have more than 100 video game titles to create movies and television shows. However, is this a successful concept? As much as people love video games (personally, I lost way too […]

Greek Festival

This weekend is one of my favorite weekends in Oakland: the annual Greek festival. The Greek Orthodox Church in the area hosts a festival every year where they put up a bunch of booths and sell ALL the Greek food. They have souvlaki, spanakopita, moussaka, lamb shanks, rice pilaf, gyros, frappe, calamari, Nagasaki, haloumi… We […]

Struggles with Self Discipline

I have no self discipline. I have downloaded at least four different weight loss apps. At least seven exercise apps. I have almost as many self help books as I do comic books. I have never finished any of them. Today, I spent the whole day trying to be productive around the house instead of […]

YouTube Drama

What is going on with the YouTube beauty community?? I used to love watching beauty videos. It was my escape from the real world; especially after a long day of work, family issues, and school. What started off as me wanting to learn more about make up and watch it be used in ways I […]

Meal Prep – Week 3

MISSY This is a week late, but we have decided to still post because we want to be held accountable for this program! We are currently in week 4, which I can’t believe we have almost finished a month. Despite our ‘cheat days/falling off the wagon’ I am proud that we go back to this […]

Sephora “Clean” Products

Sephora created a classification system, (I believe starting in 2018) called ‘Clean at Sephora.’ According to Sephora’s website, the products which receive their clean seal of approval will be free from: “sulfates SLS and SLES, parabens, formaldehydes, formaldehyde-releasing agents, phthalates, mineral oil, retinyl palmitate, oxybenzone, coal tar, hydroquinone, triclosan, and triclocarban.” Sephora also mentions this […]

Movie Preview

Last Thursday I scored some feee preview passes to see John Wick 3: Parabellum. I took my friend Johnny and we went after work to the theater on the Embarcadero. I’ve done a bunch of screenings like this, but never in SF before. These movie screenings are alway first come first serve- so we got […]

Halo Beauty – Check In!

I am currently in my second week of taking the Halo Beauty hair/skin/nail Booster vitamin, and while it is too early to notice any changes to my skin/hair/nails (vitamins/supplements take between 2-4 weeks for noticeable differences) I thought I would do a mini check! As mentioned in my prior post, I will be taking the […]

What’s My Age Again?

Blink 182 just dropped a new song today, ‘Blame it on My Youth,’ and I am loving it so far! They’re style has changed a lot over the years (obviously, no one can stay exactly the same that’s boring), but it got me thinking about how much my music tastes have changed as well. In […]
