Ginger Stars!!!


Just less than six more days until Christmas!!!  My fiancé and I decided to bake some ginger cookies.  We cut them out in star shapes, because that was the most Christmasy cookie cutter we had (until I realized we had a candy cane one when I was putting the star one away... oh, well).  We also sprinkled red and green sprinkles on them to be more festive!  They also taste great!  If anyone would like the recipe, let me know, and I'll post it.

So, Christmas shopping is finally done and we're just getting ready for Tuesday; however, my favorite day is Christmas Eve.  We tend to do more on Christmas Eve than Christmas Day, and it's a more special time for my family.  It will be really hard to be having Christmas this year without my mother.  She was the one that always went all out for Christmas.  I think she loved it more than the rest of my family and I.  But we will try to make the best of it as we can.  I'm sure we'll still have a great time.

I just posted an OOTD video on my channel the that you should check out if you haven't seen it. The link to my channel should be somewhere to the right of this post.  Expect at least a couple of more videos before Christmas.  The will be holiday related.

That's it for now.  In the meantime, I'll be watching Christmas movies and snacking on Christmas cookies.

Later!

What have I been up to...?

I know I've been neglecting my blog and my channel!  Well, there are several reasons...

First, just as I was getting over my cold, I developed a kidney infection and the antibiotics the doc put me on made me feel terrible.  That lasted several days, and I'm better now!  Yay!

Second, my fiancé came to visit for the holiday break!  I've been spending most of my time with him and haven't had much time to blog or film; however, he and I did sit down and do the "All I want for Christmas TAG" which can be seen below:


I love including him in my videos. :D

Also, on top of that, I've been Christmas shopping and making presents and wrapping presents and I'm still not finished!!!  So, I've been pretty occupied.  I'll have to post a picture on here of one of my favorite presents I made.  ^_^ I'll be sure to do that sometime in the next couple of days!  And of course, more videos to come, as well!

Later!

Finals are over/I've been ill/New uploads!

Hello everyone!

I'm happy to say that I am almost completely rid of this nasty cold that has been plaguing me for several days.  I haven't had a cold this bad in ages!  I'm glad I'm almost better.

Also, while I was fighting my cold, I was also studying and taking finals! D:  I still managed to do well, I think.  I made a B on my Physics II Final.  Yay!!! Now, it's time for upper level physics... Oh, dear.  I'll find out my final grades on Monday!

I did get around to filming my Holiday House Tour.  You can check that out by clicking the YouTube link somewhere to the right of this post and view that video.  Also, I uploaded my Sugar Plum Fairy Inspired Nail Tutorial and I'm in the process of uploading my skincare routine video! I've been a busy girl, because on top of that, I've been wrapping presents, cleaning house, and doing laundry.  My fiancé is coming this week! :D

Well, I'm glad classes are over for the semester and I seemed to have done pretty well.  Now, I've got to tackle more Christmas gift shopping and making!  Plus, I'll be making more holiday-themed videos as well, and may even feature my lovely fiancé again.  He's such  hoot! :)

Later!

Cat Tree Fun/Another sneak peak...?

Hello, once again!

It's Dead Day.  If you don't know what that is, it's the day before finals start.  D:  Anyway, I've been up to studying and all that.  Don't worry.  However, I did get a little side-tracked and did a couple of fun things on my "study breaks" which occur frequently and last quite a while, I should add.

First:

Wilhelmina (aka "Kitten")

While going through the attic in search for Christmas decor this past weekend, I found the cat tree I used to have set up at my place up north.  It was disassembled and I had a hard time remembering exactly how to put it back together, but I eventually got it figured out and a happy Kitten was glad to be pouncing and climbing on it again.  I've moved it to my room and it's in the way of my bed... I have no earthly idea where to put it!

Second:

I decided to play in my makeup because I wanted try out some of my ideas for Christmas/Winter-themed makeup looks.  Here is one I played around with.  I definitely plan to make a few changes before I film it, but I suppose this sort of a sneak peak of my Winter Wonderlandesque look.  It's more like a beta version:


Please  excuse the lack of foundation and the huge zit on my bottom lip.

The colors don't really show up well in these photos (I promise to have better ones when upload the video), plus, there are a few changes that I'm going to make.

I guess I better get back to studying... I can't wait for finals week to be over!  Then... Well, then, I have to get on Christmas presents for everyone.  Anyway, best of luck to other students out there taking their finals this week or sometime in the upcoming weeks.  Study hard and get plenty of sleep.  You're going to do just fine!

Update: Finals, Christmas, OOTD!!! Oh my!

Hey guys!

So, it's finals week!  AHH!  And today is the last day of class!  I have one more class this evening and that's it... except for finals.  AHH!

Anyway, I thought I'd upload an OOTD video, since I haven't really ever done one except a mini one at the end of my intro video and also, they're very quick to make and since I don't have a lot of time on my hands, it was the perfect thing to do!  The video should be up sometime this evening.

Here's a "sneak peak".  Ha!

Also, as soon as this wretched week is over, I'll be back on top of making videos again.  I have a lot of great ideas for Christmas, and I'll probably even do a Christmas decoration house tour video!  So, stay tuned these upcoming weeks if you watch my YouTube videos.  If you don't, you should and you should subscribe.  The link to my channel should be somewhere to the right of this post! --->

Well, that's it for now guys!  I better get back to studying!

Later!
