What I Hope To Accomplish This Week | April 13


This quarantine has me feeling some type of way, but I can't explain the way.

In one breath, I sadly feel like I have been training for something like this. I spend sooooo much time at home, and usually my weekends are spent home trying to relax and quell my fucking anxiety anyway. When I found out this was going to have to be a serious quarantining, self isolation situation for two weeks (now more), I wasn't concerned. Well, of course I was concerned for the well-being of the general public and those susceptible to the virus, but not concerned for me isolating.

I still remain the same. Concerned as shit for the well-being of our nation and the people in my community. Of course, number one being my father and the rest of my family. Not as concerned about my isolation or quarantine.

That being said, this quarantine is making me feel a few things. Mostly, I am feeling the need to just sit here and eat myself out of house and home (ew, that sounds weird, but you get it), but also to mitigate my stress (which I normally do anyway). It took me three full weeks of quarantine though to realize that I should get my shit in gear and maybe start to do more than watch shows and movies. Although, that's an accomplishment for me. Normally, I don't watch things - and it gets me into trouble in social situations. I know absolutely nothing about actors, actresses, movies, etc.

I am excited to share a few things with you that I look forward to accomplishing this week. Hopefully, this can maybe inspire you to get things done and share in it with me. Why not, right? Let's make the best we possibly can out of this, while staying safe, responsible and healthy.

How To: Get The Most Out of Your Workout


I HATE working out, hate it.  No matter how much I do hate it, I have to do it.  There are a couple of things that I do know about it thought, and those things are what keep me motivated to keep doing it.
Confused?  Let me get started with a few spots of wisdom that I've learned about working out.

The Happy Moments of Late August


What a beautiful summer it has been.  I have been so happy with the weather later on this summer because as it began, it seemed like every single weekend it was raining or something.  

Fun Links on Friday, 2/28!

Every single time I find an article I love, I get so excited.  Granted, I read so much everyday that it's very simple for me to find a couple of things that I do enjoy (whether they've been published this week or not).  Here are this week's Fun Links on Friday:



34 Problems Men Will Never Understand via Cosmopolitan

I can't lie, some of the things Cosmo posts drive me insane.  I don't know about you, but sometimes I even feel pressured or something when I'm reading their content.  In the same token, I absolutely love most of it, I don't really know if that makes sense but it does to me.  If you read this story you will see, there is almost nothing that I don't agree with.  Honestly, what guy realistically knows where/what the waterline is?  Not one.  There are some girls that I'm friends with that don't know what the waterline is when I start trying to explain it.  



Miranda Kerr Looks Stunning in Her First H&M Campaign via StyleCaster

So I know you guys already know this about me, but I love H&M.  Something you may not know is that I am obsessed with Miranda Kerr.  Everything about her is basically perfect.  You know how everyone feels about Beyonce?  Well, I love Beyonce but I love Miranda Kerr way more.  I feel like she can defy gravity or something with her gorgeousness.  I don't know.  Anyway, H&M x Miranda Kerr sounds like my heaven so I cannot wait for it to become a reality and the collaboration is on it's way as new photos were released today.  Look for the new stuff in March (tomorrow!!!!).  


Alala Style via Alala

This.  Website.  Is.  Chic.  Now, this workout gear is super chic and I absolutely love the designs.  My favorites (if I had to pick) would most definitely be the look of the sheer-paneled workout capri's and probably any one of the bras.  I love the look of simplistic stuff when it comes to workout gear.  I don't like to be in the gym or running outside with some obnoxious look on, I always want to be understated and Alala Style definitely offers that.  The #Alalalife also allows you to go from workout to the grocery store, as the looks are so transitional and versatile.  Check it out!

What other links have you all been loving this week?  I can't get enough of StyleCaster and Cosmo on the reg along with other sites so if you see these links time and time again, then you know why.  Let me know in a comment below or send me a tweet!  Have an awesome weekend everyone!
