#CollegeStudentProbs

Hey ladies,

I'm sorry I haven't been remotely consistent, but my life is very crazy right now. I know, that's not a good excuse; however as a college student, college and my health are my first priorities. Anyways, I'm transferring to a university this Spring and I'm still not sure where I'll be attending(definitely online). I have had 3 internships, 2 of which backed out or never happened, and the third internship(only one I have at the moment) is blogging about topics that interest young mothers. I also have a YouTube channel (which is now linked above. Hint: Subscribe to my blog and YT channel to learn about something that will happen soon!!).

I will try harder to be more consistent beginning with this post. At least, updating once a week.

I hope you lovelies have a wonderful week, I will write to you next week!

How To Grow Your Hair Faster


Hey ladies,

SO you want to grow your hair longer?

Here are a few tips to get the length that you want fast!


  1. You have probably heard of this tip already, but \it is crucial. Don't brush your hair when wet! It is like a rubberband right after you wash it and easier to break. I  don't even use a comb because there is still that risk. 
  2. Keep any kind of chemicals away from your hair. During the summer our hair can be doused in chlorine and other pool chemicals. Bleach has the same effect: i.e. chlorine bleach. These dry out and strip natural oils from the hair shaft leaving it dry and brittle.
  3. No heat! Unless you make sure to use a heat....and UV protectant? A heat protectant spray that contains a uv protectant will safe guard your hair from the sun( I like Not Your Mother's Heat Protectant) 
  4. Instead of wearing a tight ponytail - let it loose. Having a tight ponytail puts stress on the roots and hair by pulling out hairs when making the ponytail tight and breaking the hairs as you keep tighening the ponytail.
  5. Brush hair in moderation - Brush your hair at least once a day, but no more than two times because brushing can cause breakage. Not brushing your hair can also cause damage because you have to get out more tangles the next day.
  6.  Keep your hair moisturized. Dry hair is harder to brush through and can lead to damage. I heard Mane N' Tail has a great conditioner.
Well.. that concludes my list, but if you have any more suggestions then please leave a comment for everyone else to see.

Sassy Strawberry Colada Featuring - Slim-Fast Strawberries ’N’ Cream Shake

Hey ladies,
We all like to have a cocktail from time to time but they can be too sugary and high in calories. What can we do to fill our glasses while not feeling guilty? Slim Fast has given us another option. They've come up with a few cocktail/mocktail recipes to help us feel full and satisfy our need for a girls night in. I was sent the Strawberries n' cream shake and used it in the Sassy Strawberry Colada mocktail.

The mocktail was smooth, sweet, and didn't taste like I was drinking a Slim Fast shake.  I think that having the natural fruit helped. It was a great treat.


FTC: I was given one bottle of Slim Fast Strawberries N' Cream Shake and plastic glass for free from Influenster and Slim Fast

Here's what Slim Fast says:

Tastykake® Kandy Bar Kakes



I couldn't even wait to show you the bar (perfect timing for the TastyKake to show up, I was craving chocolate)!

My yummy Tastykake was of the Marshmallow variety, which has chocolate, marshmallow, and a cookie.. They even come in two other varieties: York Peppermint Patties and Hershey S'mores.  It is small enough that you don't have a sugar overload, but big enough to keep your taste buds content...at least until you need a Tastykake fix!

You could even cover it with strawberries, peanut butter, or ice cream if you need even more sweetness. It's great warm or room temperature with a nice, cold glass of milk.

Any way you eat a Tastykake® Kandy Bar Kake it will be the perfect dessert! If you feel a craving coming on, fulfill it by going to the Tastykake website

Its been how long since I've posted?!!

Hey ladies!

Wow, I'm so sorry for keeping you waiting. I have to make a decision about which University I'll be attending, while switching health insurance, trying to find a job to help pay for the university,  continuing my internship, and my college class.

The only things checked off that list are the insurance, my college class has ended, and maybe trying to find a job, but we'll see.

Again, Thank you for your patience! Keep an eye out for more posts, and I will talk to you soon!
