Chit Chat 4

The PA Powerball has recently posted at $1.5 billion and I keep dreaming of what my life would be like with that amount of money! Nick and I have budgeted the first week to get ourselves out of debt. Get those credit cards, cars, student loans, and anything else paid off. That also reminds me, I need to pay the registration fee for my car this month. When I say we budgeted the first week, we broke down the amount we would get paid after taxes and divided it up to get a monthly, weekly, and daily budget. This would take me from drowning in debt to swimming peacefully after hearing that 6th number.

After we spend pennies in comparison to the amount we would receive, we would put a dent in it for housing and retirement. This is how I know we have become an old married couple. We’ve decided on an average home (with both a man cave and beauty room) and to not quit working. Just because there is a lot of money in the bank, does not mean it will stay there. We’ve even talked about giving money away to family but after all that, lots of vacations around the world would be in our future!

Ultimately the chances are about 300 million to 1, but to keep on the side of positivity, that is still a chance. Hopefully I don’t have to wait in line too long when getting my tickets tonight and tomorrow, but good luck to those of you who are in the same boat looking to win yourself some monaaaaay! I have some more beauty related posts on the way this week, just keep checking back! Thanks so much for reading and don’t forget to let me know if you’ve purchased Powerball ticket or if you are going to be up watching PLL with me!!

March Madness Challenge

I decided I need to make changes in my life. After reading a lot of blogs and spending hours on YouTube, I learned in order to look and feel healthier there is one thing holding me back. This thing I reach for instantly when I wake up. I consume it every day with almost every meal, and in some instances it is the only thing I drink all day. It is my perfect snack. Something I've never left a Wawa without. This crutch that I have given myself over the years is Coca-Cola. I live and breathe the white wave on the front of every bottle. I love the polar bears and own the plush versions of them in two out of the three sizes. I collect Mycokerewards from roommates, friends, family and coworkers. I can rattle off random information about the soda and the company as a whole. My dream kitchen has a retro feel with Coca-Cola accents. And the Coca-Cola Santa is the real Santa. I am an addict. I am addicted to the carbonation tickling my tongue and giving me the everlasting joy I seek in a

Where I've been for 2.5 years

Hey there! I’d like to reintroduce myself, I’m Krystal and welcome to my blog! I am now 28 and still living in the West Chester area with my boyfriend and fur babies (we’ve added another kitty, Callie, to the family since my last post J ). I’m totally still obsessed with binge watching TV shows and keeping my positivity up when I can. Writing has been such a huge part of my life since high school. It was my creative outlet until college where I felt put in a box without being able to speak my truth through each key stroke. So it seemed I needed a purpose for every perfectly structured sentence and I found that I couldn’t perform creatively under those circumstances. I needed an unrefined and unrestricted flow and this is where I found myself. At first, I started blogging to share my wellness journey that I didn’t even realize at the time was the beginning. I wanted to challenge myself to stop drinking Coke and I did it. I shared how drinking more water and no soda started cha

New Years Resolution for 2016

A new year entitles us all to a new beginning. As the year ends, most people like to set new goals and aspirations to make the next year better than the one before and to improve themselves. Last year, I challenged myself to stop drinking soda, something that I am absolutely in love with. Those 30 days were such a struggle and I gained so much support in the process. I have gone back to drinking soda only because the other drinks I replaced it with had just as much sugar, if not more. Now, I honestly drink a lot less. In one night Nick and I could finish off a 12 pack and still need more, whereas now the same amount can last us weeks. I am proud of myself for the progress I’ve made with soda in less than a year. Although I believe I could be healthier, I have decided to take this year to not focus on my appearance. This might sound crazy coming from someone who blogs about using makeup and posts selfies at least once a week, but I like to look at makeup as clothing. I have cloth
