Perfect for Me
It has been four months now since I lost my father. We were always very close. I can say now that the pain is less than it was in the beginning, but I am nowhere near healed. The pain is still very much there, it has just lessened slightly. In my father's honor, I would like to share with everyone a poem I wrote for him shortly after his passing.

Depression in Grief
How are we supposed to heal through grief with depression constantly gripping our ankles and pulling us back down below the surface of the water? What are we supposed to do when our depression, by itself, causes us to be unable to recognize ourselves but then grief comes along and changes us into a completely different person that we no longer recognize in the mirror.

Michelle Phan: 'Make Up'
Throughout our life, we absorb knowledge about beauty and style just from living our lives, trial and error. But how often do you personally experience, or know someone who does, that feeling of helplessness when it comes to beauty, fashion, or even acquiring a job? Or perhaps you feel rather confident when it comes to your skills in those areas. No matter who you are, what walk of life you come from, or how successful you already are, trust me when I say, Michelle Phan’s book, Make Up: Your Life Guide to Beauty, Style, and Success–Online and Off, is a must-read for everyone.

Coffee for Hair Growth?
Don’t we all wish our hair would magically grow overnight? I know personally I have always enjoyed having short hair because for me it is easier to care for. But then there will come times when I will miss my long hair and so I decide to grow it out again. But it takes SO LONG! Especially since my hair started from a pixie cut. And everyone knows how awkward those are to grow out if you’re not careful you’ve got a one-way ticket to a mullet. Ewww. Obviously, I have spent a great deal of time on the internet researching different way to help accelerate hair growth, and I have found one that I absolutely must share with everyone! Before sharing this with everyone I did test it out for one month so that I would be able to give you a detailed review on whether or not it actually works.

Rice Toner
I know I am not alone in my struggles in finding the perfect products for my face. Our faces are one of the first things people we meet notice, and so we can all be rather paranoid about the condition of our faces, and justly so. Even if you are a person who honestly does not care how other people think of them there is never any harm in looking good for yourself or even just caring about taking care of your body.

Holiday in the Park
It's the most wonderful time of the year! Everyone is gearing up for Christmas and Six Flags Over Texas will not be left behind. From the decorations and different activities the employees have spent tremendous effort on to the carols that can be heard throughout the entire park; here are some of my favorite things to do at Holiday in the park and some things you may want to check out when planning your visit.
