So, even though its still 6 months away, we’ve already started planning. It will blow the PANTS off any anniversary EVER.
Drive to Florida ? Go to Disney for a day (park hopping of course) ? wake up the next morning and drive to Port Canaveral ? get on a wonderful Bahama Cruise for a couple days.
Yes. I know, amazing.

“Nice” is the bare minimum standard that we as individuals in an integrated society should maintain every day of our lives. It’s nice to notice “nice” in the world…but what a sad commentary it is that simple acts of common decency seem so rare to people that they feel compelled to offer compliments, gratitude and even awards for them.
I am nice (yet fallible with all the frustrations and inconsistencies that go with being human)—and I appreciate when my niceness it is recognized by others. However, please do not apply heroism to what is the very least I should be.
Being nice is its own reward.

Okay, so this weekend, Mo and I tried an at home waxing kit (Sally Hansen Natural BARE waxing strips). It was our first time waxing, so we figured we’d get this cheaper kit (about 10 or 11 dollars) as opposed to spending $40 at Sephora for the Poetic Waxing Kit. Here’s my take on this product:
You don’t heat or microwave the strips, you rub them between the palms of your hands to heat the wax. You need to do a lot of hard, fast rubbing for the wax to get the perfect sticky consistency. Once the wax is soft enough, you place it on your skin in the direction that the hair grows in and rip it off in the opposite direction. The product worked very well on my arms, however, they did little to nothing on the bikini area.
They were an alright buy, and apparently suppost to be natural and healthy and stuff, but I would not buy this product again. Maybe I was using it wrong, but I think it was just the product. For womanly areas, I would probably buy the more expensive and worthwhile.
Stay beautiful!

we need to overpower this whole “thinspo” tumblr fad. Let’s say “Enough is enough!” & start defining beauty our way, the REAL way. Health is what’s beautiful. Health is strength. Skinny isn’t power, it’s not achieving anything, unless your goal is to have everything good about you be hindered for a sickly outward appearance. Loving your body for what it is and how it’s made is what’s beautiful, THAT is what we call strength. NOT starvation.
Nearly 1 in 100 people will suffer from Schizophrenia in their life time, which although on the surface you may at first think that is not very many, that means that approximately 77, 7979.09 people in London alone right now, statistically speaking, have Schizophrenia. When put like this, the statistics are shocking.
Society seems to have a problem with the word schizophrenia often feeling fear. In a recent coursework presentation I did I found that when I said the words ‘mentally ill’ to people, the main disorder that repeatedly came up was schizophrenia which they associated with being ‘crazy’, ‘insane’ and ‘abnormal’. Words that none of us would wish to be labelled with.
I have no personal experience of schizophrenia however I see anyone with a mental illness as the same as someone without, its just that their experience of life and view of the world may be different. Who is to say there is something wrong with that?
In my presentation I included the video ‘schizo’ and this shows exactly how we can create the wrong idea of someone and how actually people with schizophrenia are just like the rest of us deep down.
People with schizophrenia can work, maintain relationships and have stable lives, it is just a matter of the individual learning to recognise their symptoms and when they need help. It is no different to any other illness albeit a mental disorder or a physical condition. It is all about management and about having people there. We all need someone to lean on.
So next time you hear the word ‘schizophrenia’, try not to allow yourself to think straight to the stereotypical views and images the media and world have planted, unconsciously inside of you, and remember, behind their illness lies someone just like you, with needs, with a personality, and with feelings.
That title was slightly misleading. I do wish I was a morning person, but that’s not the point. the point is…is that TODAY.

I am going to start Insanity. I loved P90X, but it’s too much of things I don’t need. I’d like to have a bunch of muscle, but I need cardio more than strength at this point. Soooo Insanity it is. And the food plan is surprisingly easy to keep up with, except for the fact that you have to eat FIVE times a day. Which is around three more than what I’m getting right now. (I’m lookin’ at YOU, job…)
Annnd, I’m going kickboxing for the first time today :) yay!
Background info
During normal reproduction, a single cell is formed by the penetration of the sperm in to the egg and then from that stage onwards, the single cells divides at an exponential rate and forms YOU. The case for twins is different, the fertilized egg divides first, forming two identical zygotes and the result is monozygotic twins.
Research/Findings
Many people assume that these twins should have the same genotype and phenotype and that the only thing that can change them is the environment. Recent findings have found out that it is not only the environment that causes variations in these twins.
Dr. O’Reilly, a psychiatrist at Lawsom Health Research Institute, used a pair of identical twins where one have schizophrenia and the other one doesn’t and identify all the genetic differences. Surprisingly, after examining a million markers, they found out that 12% of DNA can vary between identical twins.

It’s very interesting. Along with describing the metabolic changes within an obese body, the narrator also describes the downfall of most diets. Because people tend to starve themselves on a diet (inadvertently or not), their bodies crave foods with a higher caloric value (ie milkshakes, burritos, etc) to feel satisfied. Once someone caves and eats these foods, the set point (the weight your body tends to gravitate toward) for their body gets higher in order to avoid starvation, and they’ll gain more weight because their body will be hungry until they reach this set point. So once they check the scale and notice they’ve gained, they’ll start a diet again. This starts the whole process over, creating a vicious cycle.
It’s so important to just eat a normal, healthy diet and get exercise. Fad diets don’t work, especially those that try to eliminate carbohydrates from your diet. Your body needs carbs, healthy fats & oils, and sugars to keep your metabolism going. The trick is portion control and making sure you get these things in healthy quantities. Unless you can find a diet that includes a healthy amount of food and calories for each day, you really should be wary of it.

I just discovered Marisa Klass Jewelry and they are totally eye candies — full of colors and soft-edged geometric shapes. It strikes me as a crossover of Bulgari and Ippolita somehow. Love these jewels.
