Happy New year!

My new years resolutions:
Blog at least once a week!

Tips and tricks for your nyr(new years resolutions)

1) The gym resolution- about 75% of Americans say this exact thing every new year,"I am going to go to the gym every day so i can fit into that bathing suit by summer." now instead of going to the gym every day, go every other day or go mwfs that way you don't get burnt out. and in between you could always do some in home excises http://www.youtube.com/user/ToneItUpcom .

2) The style resolution- "I am going to change my style and always look good." Before you go out and spend $500 on new clothes, check out your closet! remember that dress or that tie you forgot you had? now you can save some money by create different outfits with pieces you already have!

3) The money resolution- "I am going to save all my money and be rich." Alright, chill out before you throw all of the your money in the bank seek help from a pro like Dave Ramsey! This way you are on a plan and you don't have to worry about a thing!

Your Invited!

So, have you ever wondered why you have to be invited on to certain websites? I'm here to tell you why. On websites such as Hautelook,Pinterest etc. you are required to get and invite. Do you want to know why? There is really no reason specific... most likely because these websites want to look cool(Which they are). And they also want to make there members feel cool. I am a member of pinterest. And to be 100% i feel a little cool being apart of the "Pinterest Community" mostly because I was invited! These websites are all really great, I just wanted to explain to you why you need to be invited for no reason in particular.

* I am not sponsored by these websites
* I am not trying to bash these sites in anyway
* Sorry I haven't posted in a while. New posts coming soon!

Poke It with a stick!

This next blog post is inspired by my Aunt Chrisy***

Poke it with a stick is the title of a show. guess what they do on this TV show? They poke it with a stick. And not just anything, wild animals. So here is an example you would put the contestant in an arena with an animal such as lion or a tiger. but here's the catch the animal is asleep. So the contestant would have to the poke the  (sleeping) animal with a stick and try to get away from it as fast as possible. Now if you lost you would obviously die. But if you won your prize would be i survived poke it with a stick! Now we might have a little bit of trouble trying to get people to sign up.

just to sum up the show for you:

= BAD NEWS!

I have a problem

I have a problem with pants. What do you think about the guys who wear their pants below their butts and the girls with their butt cracks showing? I personally think that these people should be punished. especially when the guys wear belts with their pants below their knees. I think that a warning should be that they are shot in the back with permanent brown paint so other people know that that person does not like to dress appropriately. And if they sag their pants of show butt crack again, i think they should be forced to wear flight suits or some type of jumper preferably one that is orange or has pinstripes. Thanks for reading


P.S. crack kills!

3 Things!

Diamonds, salt and pepper shakers, and the Washington's do we notice a pattern? surprisingly no. unless...... George Washington is proposing to Martha Washington while the kids are showering using the salt and pepper shakers. if that were to happen a couple things would be wrong in our world.
1. Martha and George would be alive
2. the salt and pepper shakers would have been invented
3. there would have been digital cameras and photographers

If you ever see anything similar happen take a picture and sent it to me ASAP!!!

I love buying things online!

OK have you ever purchased anything online through amazon or ebay?  What is the best part of buying something online is it: Entering your credit card number and knowing that you just made yourself poor? NO.
or is it having the conformation letter sent to your though your email? NO!!!
Or is it getting that nice crisp brown box in your mail box at around 1:35 pm and running inside the house to see what you got (even though you already know what it is) YESSSS!!!

So the next time you think about leaving your house to go make a purchase STOP and think do I really want to do this? And the answer is no you dont!

America's Got Talent

I think everything on the show is getting truly boring.... I mean singing, dancing  and comedy are great and everything but happened to the creativity? If I ever did a show like this I would in it to win it!

Ideas to win:
Teaching a mule to dance to Brittney Spears
A combo of tap dancing, singing and rodeo
keeping a straight face while people make absolutely ridiculous noises

Now after reading these ideas, if someone who could do any of these things on AGT tell me that you would watch that show. Because I know I would
