Places I Have Been: Detroit, Michigan
It was a long time ago, I was in the fifth grade visiting my best friend who had moved from Dayton, the year before. I don't remember much of it, but I do remember it being a lot of fun and we did get to go to Cedar Point which is actually in Sandusky, Ohio, but it was a blast. It was kind of sad at the same time, because that was the last time I saw her. Thanks to Facebook we recently got back in touch with each other. She is someone I have never forgotten about after all these years. So, it was one of my favorite trips, and one that I will remember for the rest of my life.

This Pretty and Kind of Romantic
Just as long as I don't get too dizzy and vomit on his shoes. It would be a romantic date and a very romantic kissing spot.
Speaking of My Prince...
Okay so Prince William is certainly handsome, Kate Middleton is one lucky girl, no doubt. However, I myself prefer Prince Harry. I know, I know he's kind of a bad boy and realistically going for a guy like that is not going to get me anywhere near the alter anytime soon. He does have some great qualities though that I would love for the man of my dreams to have.
For starters he's absolutely adorable, I love that playful mischief look in his eyes. I think he seems to be very honest about who he is and honesty is the best policy in my book. At least with someone like that I would know what I was getting into. There really are no red flags, what you see is what you get, that's the vibe I get from him at least. I love his wholesome image mixed with his edginess.
His freckles drive me crazy and I love the way he dresses. He always looks presentable and cleancut even when he is just in casual attire. He seems fun and adventerous, I love to laugh and be entertained, that is the key to my heart. Oh and he's British...I have a thing for British, Irish, and Australian men and their sexy accents.
He is beautiful!
One Day My Prince Will Come
I just don't have a lot to say about this subject, you will mostly be seeing pictures that go along with this theme. When it comes to dating and relationships I am pretty clueless, I haven't had the greatest luck with men. I've dated some jerks, but I have also dated some nice guys. It's not always them, I am not ashamed to admit, I think a lot of it does have to do with me. The reason is because I am pretty insecure about it, I have a hard time finding common interests, and I tend to be a little shy when it comes to having conversations.
My communication skills aren't that great. There are things I am working on. I'm exploring and discovering new interests so that I will have more knowledge and more to talk about other than fashion, shopping, partying it up with my friends, and celebrities. This is an area I need lots of help in, I know what I need to work on, finally...I get it.
I'm 33 years young, I still have plenty of time to find the right guy for me. I know that one day my prince will come and I will get my happily ever after.

Movie and Popcorn Night
I can eat popcorn anytime, and I mean the entire bowl or bag. I prefer just regular old popcorn with lots of salt and extra butter, but I do love trying other kinds as well. If you are looking for a new twist, here are some ideas you might like.
This is popcorn made from scratch. Apparently, according to this blogger, microwave popcorn is not that good for you...really? Most people who love and eat popcorn aren't all that worried about whether it's good for them or not. I know I'm not. That's just me though.
My Favorite Model Drinking My Favorite Soda
The woman who inspired me throughout my teen years...Niki Taylor. She is one of the reasons I wanted to do this. Plus I love my Coca Cola.
