Why I Almost Never Polish My Nails

I almost never polish my nails because:

• The polish comes off in .2 seconds.
• The polish takes 12+ hours to actually dry completely.
• I mess up one hand trying to do the other.
• It chips off the day after.
• My nails turn yellow after polishing them often.
• My nails break and the polish comes right off with it.
• I'm lazy.
• Nail polish remover smells bad.
• I can never get the polish bottle open, so I spend 20+ minutes trying to do so.

Never question my bare nails. Please don't.

Floral Print Obsession

I am guilty of a floral print obsession. I plan on decorating my room with a vintage-flower-like theme once I move to a new house and I find myself gravitating towards floral clothing when shopping. It's become such a big problem that I felt it was necessary to talk about it here on my blog. Heh...

These two tops are from papaya. They are super cute and comfortable for both Spring and Summer. I find that papaya has lots of clothing like this that suits my girly style for a really affordable price. I also love pairing these tops with either a pair of jeans or shorts along with my eyelet Keds.


I've also recently been obsessed with this app called The Hunt. What you do is take a photo of something and people will "hunt" for the place where you can buy something similar to it for a good price (doesn't the name make sense now?). Most hunts are fashion and beauty related, but other things tend to pop up on there as well. I haven't helped anyone or sent someone frantically searching the web to fulfill my fashion needs (yet). I usually follow different hunts for outfit ideas and see different styles that people have. I come across a lot of floral prints and pastels on there...muhaha...

I'm really hyper today, so excuse my weirdness. Happy Earth Day, lovelies!

Staying Positive + Pet Playtime

Most people tend to be negative. Instead of focusing their energy on the great things in life, they focus on the bad things. I tend to do this myself and I find that the people around me do this as well.

Today I decided to see how positive I could be. I pushed aside all the negative aspects of my everyday life and said hi to old friends. When something bad happened, I was sentimental and caring towards people. I smiled a lot more than I usually do. Did you know that simply smiling on a bad day makes you happier? Don't believe me? Try it sometime!

My day ended up being super great! I haven't had such a happy day in months, so it was great for a change. It does take lots of effort to be positive for a whole eight or more hours, but it's totally worth it. I challenge you to try this. Don't complain for a whole day. Be nicer than you usually are. Be positive! Do you think you can do it? If you don't think you can, how do you know until you try?

I also snapped a few photos on Saturday to celebrate Hamster Day! The hamster was discovered on April 12, 1930, so Hamster Day is celebrated every April 12th. I gave Rye and Rhino some treats to celebrate and played with each pet. I also got to snap a few photos, so here are some of my favorites.

Ripley looks like she's taking a really awkward school or family photo here...

I hope you lovelies have a positive week!

April Updates

Happy April everyone! I felt it was about time I updated you on the pets.

Ripley has been doing very well! She's been playful as usual and the ear problems she was having back in December haven't came back...hopefully I won't jinx it! She has been eating a new food since the one she was eating before was discontinued. The transfer onto the new food was very easy and she didn't give me any trouble at all.

Rhino has been doing well, too! I don't really have much to say about him besides the fact that he is a very picky eater. He usually leaves behind lots of pellets and anything healthy in his bowl.

Rye is doing really good! He's been exercising lots on his wheel at night and eats almost all of the food in his dish. He will eat anything you give him except pellets.

That's all I have for today. I hope you enjoyed!
