#Blogtober14 Day 22 // Only 5 of My Pet Peeves

I'm the type of person that can get easily annoyed. I've gotten good at holding it in, but deep down, it bothers the living daylights out of my. I'll be smiling and nodding while having a mental freakout.

1. When people tell me what I should and shouldn't eat. I have digestive issues, so this is something that is constantly mentioned.

2. Slow walkers.

3. When my personal bubble is being invaded. 

4. Tags sticking out the back of peoples' shirts.

5. People asking what I'm gonna do with my life. I'm 20. I still have time to figure that out. Asking me every time you see me isn't doing anything but making me angry.

These things really get to me and as you can see, I have an issue with space. I'm trying to work on it, but there are some things you just can't fix.

Much love,

#Blogtober14 Day 18 // Share a Secret...

This prompt is super hard. I tend to be a pretty open person, so coming up with a secret is really hard. Without further adieu, here is my b i g secret!

I'm thinking about launching some kind of homemade product. Details aren't for sure and I'm not even certain if I want to do it or not..

I'd love any sort of feedback on what to do or if you have your own products or business!

#Blogtober14 Day 17 // 10 Things I'm an Expert at...

Out loud to other people, I never try to claim I'm an expert. Then, people have expectations. And hold standards. And can judge and be mean and that just sounds horrible. For today's prompt's sake, I'll toot my own horn and claim to be an "expert."

-Correcting grammar and spelling.
This is one of my biggest pet peeves. If you want to be taken professionally by a profession or any sensible person really, use proper punctuation and correct spelling. Grammar counts.

-Packing.
I'm seriously a champ at packing and space saving. I like to cram things into cubbies or boxes to save space for other things. I look at packing like a it's one, big puzzle and Lord knows how I love me a good puzzle.

-Forgetting things.
I forget things so easily. You can tell me something and no more than five seconds later, I'll forget. I need to write things down or it won't get done.

-Avoiding phone calls.
I hate phone calls. For some reason, they scare the crap out of me and make me anxious. Not seeing things makes me so nervous and not making eye contact with the person I'm talking to freaks me out.

-Getting ready super fast.
I tend to run on the slightly late side. When you run on that side, you need to learn to get ready fast. Time management has never been my strong suit.

-Pinterest-ing.
I'm a master pinner. I started on Pinterest shortly after the site launched. As of today, I have 17 boards and 9,696 pins.

-Procrastinating.
I've always been a procrastinator. There's just something about waiting till the last minute to get something done that I just can't get enough of.

-Keeping up-to-date on my subscriptions.
I love YouTube and I love blogging. I have so many subscriptions to each that I can't stand to miss a day. If I miss a few days, mark my words I will get caught up and there's nothing anyone can do to stop me.

-Planning.
Although I'm a procrastinator and forgetful, I'm very good at planning. Especially when it comes to events and gatherings. I love putting things together. Again, another puzzle.

-Making googly-eyes at babies and puppies.
Babies and puppies might very well be my favorite things on the planet. They're just so cute and cuddly that I can't help but be a high-pitched, hyper mess when I see them.

Tomorrow's prompt is "Share a Secret About You..."

#Blogtober14 Day 16 // Fall Fashion

First off, I apologize for my absence. I had a lot going on with moving, starting school, and not having internet, but not to fear! I'm getting back into regular posting! For whatever posts I missed for this link-up, I will make up in November since I missed some of my favorite prompts.

As you may know, I'm doing the #Blogtober14 link-up and today's prompt is 'Fall Fashion' and one thing that I've been loving for Fall is chambray! Below are three ways that I love to style chambray.

Outfit #1 is one is probably my favorite way to style chambray. It's super cozy and is full of basic staples that any and every closet should have. I love how the gold accents give the outfit a bit more of a 'pow' so it's not so neutral color based. I like to leave the chambray completely unbuttoned to show the white shirt as well as rolling up the sleeves. I wear this outfit more than I care to admit.

Outfit #2 is my runner up to the first one. It's a more casual outfit that I like to where going out shopping with my girlfriends or going on a coffee date. I love the pairing of the light and dark denim look and surprise, surprise, I paired it with gold accessories again. I can't help it. It's a serious obsession.

Outfit # 3 is a little more dressy, but still comfy and something decently warm to wear in the fall. I love the look of the skirt with the chambray. I'm not the biggest fan when it comes hats, but I can't help but make an exception for this outfit.

Seriously guys, I promise to get back to posting regularly.

Blogtober14 // If I Won the Lottery...

Oh my goodness! It's finally October! October is easily my favorite month out of the year. I don't like the cold, but I simply love watch the season change from summer to fall. It's so beautiful.

So I decided a while ago that I was going to find a link-up for October and write a blog post every single day since I don't like doing the typical "30 day blah-dee-blah" stuff. This month, the link-up comes from Taylor Grace Wolfe and HeleneInBetween.

The first prompt is "If I Won the Lottery..."

Since I work in a gas station, getting asked what I'd do with the winnings is something I'd get asked on a regular basis. One customer told me a story about how he put his numbers in 15 minutes after the drawing and wouldn't you know it, his numbers got drawn. Just his luck, right? But anyway it got my thinking. What would I do if I won the lottery?

The first thing I'd do is pay off all of my student loans. That is my biggest concern now and would still be my biggest concern when I won the lottery. Knowing that I wouldn't have to worry about them would be a huge relief.

Secondly, I'd buy myself a new car, a Ford Fusion to be exact, and a smallish-sized house that I can fix up and call my own. These things may sound lame to some people, but even thinking about someday being debt-free and financially stable gives me such a sound mind.

And lastly, I'd go on vacation; One place with my family and then travel Europe with my best friend. Travelling is something I hardly get to do at all anymore and I have so many things that I want to see and experience: London, Germany, Ireland, Greece, Australia. The list goes on and on.

What would you spend your lotto winnings on? A vacation? A house? Maybe even investing? Let me know below! I'm so curious to read your answers!

Here is the list of daily prompts!

Much love,
