determined to prove him wrong

I've been feeling pretty lazy lately - probably due to the blah weather we've been having. First it rained for two weeks straight, then we had a heat wave, and now it's unfortunately back to rain. I needed something to give me a little boost of energy and get myself in that feel good spirit.

Now, I like to spend money - not necessarily on stuff I need, but just stuff I want at the moment (big problem, I know). Well... I was at the store a few days ago and decided I just needed to have a yoga mat. Never in my life have I done or even thought of doing yoga; I barely ever exercise! The BF tried to talk me out of it like everything else, but this time I WON!

I insisted on showing him that it was a good purchase by exercising that night. This was the first time in a very, very, very long time that I even tried to exercise, but I had to prove the BF wrong! I was determined.

I've had the yoga mat for about a week now, exercising every night, and I realized that ever since I bought the mat, I have felt so much better about myself and my body has felt amazing. I never thought that stretching would make my body feel as good as it does, but damn it feels incredible! I've always wanted dancer's legs - they're thin, toned, and perfect! Now that I have my yoga mat, I'm totally into exercising and working out (maybe I'll even get those dancer's legs without dancing? Yeah right!). Either way, I love it! In your face BF! I love him, I really do :)

Look out world, you're getting a new me!

i fell in love.

Ever have one of those nights where you're looking for something, but not sure what it is? Well I have those nights all the time! I spend hours on the internet with absolutely nothing in mind, but I end up unexpectedly finding some really great things.

The other night I stumbled on: LemonKissed on Etsy!

I had nothing in mind that I was searching for, but when I found this store, I fell in love! The pieces of jewelry created there are just beautiful. Now, let me just say that I am not the type of girl to wear dangly earrings... I'm more of a stud kinda girl, but I think I need to make an exception after seeing these.

MUST HAVE!

I just find them so adorable & they'd be perfect for summer. New addiction?! Uh oh!

i heart bikinis

I have a serious swimwear addiction, specifically bikinis. A girl can NEVER have enough swimwear! Now that the warm weather has finally graced us with its presence here in NJ, I've finally take out part of my collection. I have 15 bathing suits just in my room and tons more still waiting to get out of the summer boxes that were put away for winter. The BF constantly makes fun of me for having too many bathing suits especially since I can never decide which one to wear! I always had bad self-esteem growing up and would never wear a bikini or even a bathing suit for that matter - I was always that girl with the board shorts and t-shirt, but now I am an addict. Now, I spend sooo much time online looking for bikinis and new swim shops/boutiques. I'm very picky with bathing suits; they need to meet specific criteria in order for me to purchase.

It needs to fit! I HATE when stores sell swimwear "sets" - WTFF?! ... Not all girls can fit into those! Some have big @$$, small b00bs...... others vice versa (big b00bs, small @$$). Ughhh that's just so frustrating. How can you sell a $180 swimsuit as a set and not give us the ability to choose separately WHAT FITS?!?!?

Anywayys.... I MUST have this!
