Start Your Monday Right!

Can we please have a moment of silence for the end of the weekend...sorry friends it's time to go back to real life! I know it was difficult to get out of bed today because it was a struggle for me. And by struggle I mean STRUGGLE. It's the strangest thing one day I'm a morning person and the next day I'm not. Today is the day that I'm not a morning person, figures. So to get myself going this morning I had to pump the jams and boyyyyy did it make a difference! I went from grouchy to peppy just two songs into this playlist. It's amazing how music can change your mood! So obviously I had to share this playlist with you all, I hope it brings you as much peppiness as it did for me! P.S this playlist is best when played on shuffle.

MUST HAVE WORKOUT PLAYLIST!

It's Monday y'all. Get your coffee, put on your cute workout clothes and head over to the gym. I finally got myself a legit gym membership and I couldn't be happier! I am a member of Planet Fitness and I love it. People love to hate on Planet Fitness because they're not a "weightlifting" gym, but they have tons of weights and machines that are plenty enough for me! Now that I have a gym membership I need the greatest playlist alive to keep me motivated throughout my workout. Les be honest and bad playlist is a no no. So my biggest motivational tip is create a great playlist or you can just use mine! I've made a Spotify playlist that you can listen to when sweating it out. Enjoy!

100+ songs for a mellow Monday

This Monday I am feeling very mellow, so obviously my indie/calming playlist is calling my name. I did not make this playlist today! It's taken me months to make! Enjoy!

P.S- Let me know which songs are your favorite! 

Real Life: Update

Hello Friends! I hope you all are having a wonderful Monday afternoon, night or Tuesday morning (just trying to accommodate time differences). The past two weeks have been...hectic. That is the only way I can explain how my life has been going in it's entirety. It's just, hectic. Yes, I said it again but it's the truth! Being a second semester senior in your third week of school is no walk in the park. Why don't they tell you this? A heads up would be nice, but I digress. Finalizing my class schedule and running from meeting to meeting has taken majority of my time not leaving too much time for fun let alone sleeping! We obviously can't win them all. Things have finally slowed down and are back to "normal" so I can blog like normal again.
Please excuse the appearance of my blog in the next few weeks because it will be going through some physical changes. I really excited about the new site, it's time for something new! Also I have a surprise for all of my wonderful subscribers! You'll hear more about it next Monday! So make sure to come back here Monday for some fun news! You guys are really great and listen to me talk everyday so I'd like to so something nice for you all! I also want to be more connected with you all so be sure to follow all of my links on the side bar. Like, comment, follow, etc. Let's be friends!

I'd like to leave you all with little Dahlia circa '94

Real Life: Music Monday

Hello Everyone! Happy Monday! I apologize in advance for this Music Monday's format. I recently updated my MacBook to Mountain Lion which I love, but now that I've updated some of my old programs no longer work. This includes my Adobe Photoshop which is what I use for most of my blog posts. I'm now on the hunt for something new and preferably not to pricey since I am a college student. If you have any suggestion let me know!

Less about my Adobe issues and more about music! Now that fall had kind of come? I say that as a question because my Lilly planner says it's fall, but when I step outside it's 84 degrees outside. I'm very confused by this weather, but I won't complain too much because it has been quite nice. So in preparation for fall, I've been listening to a lot of pretty mellow music with a few spurts of techno here and there. The spurts of upbeat music come from my 5am workouts, let's be real, mellow music in the morning is no way to stay awake at all ( I know this from personal experience. Big no, no.). The mellow music is saved for the day time when I'm fully awake and functional. I like doing homework, running errands, and reading a good book to this playlist. If it were a little colder outside...I see myself all snuggled up on my couch with a nice book, chai tea, a pumpkin spice candle burning with this playlist playing in the background. Hopefully in due time.

Music Monday

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had a pleasant and restful weekend. This Music Monday is featuring Rihanna. This song always gets me hyped up, whether it be getting ready, walking to class or working out. All in all it's a great song, check it out!
Now I've always admired Rihanna's makeup, she could always pull off a very pretty rouge lip and some mauve blush, I've been thinking about doing a make-up tutorial with  a similar look. Let me know what you guys think!

Happy Monday All! This Music Monday is featuring Ne-Yo. If you all haven't listened to his R.E.D album go listen to it ASAP! Forever Now is my favorite song, I always find myself listening to it on my shower playlist. It's also a great song for impromptu dance parties (I speak from experience).

Have a good one everyone

Real Life: Music Monday

First off, I would like to say Happy Martin Luther King Day! I am so thankful for all of his sacrifices, hard work, and never giving up on his dreams.

Now if any if you are fans of Mumford and Sons you are going to looooooveee Emily Hearn. Her Music is folk with a sprinkle of pop! This amazing singer is from Athens, GA and had opened for Darius Rucker!
Enjoy!
