Random thought of the day!

I think I will be starting a new series called "Random Thought of the Day". Basically for everyone that knows me, they know my mind is like a 3 year old with ADD on 6 pixi sticks, 2 Mountain Dews and a choclate cake ( basically all over the place...) with a perv twist...yes i am quite immature...don't you judge me...well ok you can because im cool like... anywho, I have life changing thoughts and wonders about the world around me so I thought"Why not write about it on my blog so others can either laugh because they think the same thing or can think I'm a freak" either way its entertaining, right?!

so here we go...whats with ankle boots with peep toes? come on ladies do you not understand the concept of a boot??

boot: 1. Protective footgear, as of leather or rubber, covering the foot and part or all of the leg

You know who started this trend?? Hobos...but guess what they didn't do it to be stylish, they have their toes showing because they are hobos!!
 
And unless you wanna achieve a certain "i live on the streets" look maybe we should stick to close toed boots perhaps....

It just looks silly to have your gross toes hanging out for the world to see in your boots...see??

(oh and i love this one...let's get peep toe boots then wear black tights to cover our toes because that makes incrediable sense!)

And really?!?! come on! your killing me...socks and sandal/boots
so ladies lets be somewhat logically in our fashion trends...have a good one xoxo whit

Outfit of the Day (OOTD)

So I felt like I should share this incrediably amazing outfit...well maybe its not that great but let me tell ya its freakin comfy! :) And on a rainy Wednesday thats pretty much all I want! The shirt is a great buy from 599fashion.com. Its super soft and flowly and feels like your wearing an oversized sleep shirt but it has the beautiful lace heart and rhinestones that help dress it up...plus the mesh on top and the fit gives it quite the 80's feel....I will say when I ordered it I thought it had lace on top (i LOVE lace!!) but it more has a mesh-y feel, kinda like a fishing net lol but thats fine with me :)  I just wore black leggings and my Robin Hood boots and pulled my messy hair into a side pony with just a natural looking makeup. Just one flashy ring, black bracelet, and angel wing earrings finish the outfit off...

(please excuse the super fancy bathroom at work...classy indeed)

I have way more clothes from 599fashion so I am sure I'll have more super cute OOTDs on the way :) enjoy xoxo whit

Love me or hate me...

Let's take a trip back to when things were awesome and we were way cooler than the rest, still cruisen main street, & tasting beer for the first time.. that's right I'm talking about 2007..senior year...the year we all thought we were hotter than the rest, 18 and complete hardasses...haha don't act like you were above it. Everyone thought that they were the shit..you'll see what I mean later :)

But  anyways in 07 a song came out that I (and every other high school girl that I hung out with) LOVED...it was "Love me or hate me" by Lady Sovereign. We cranked it up and sang it loud and proudly like we had something to prove!

And like the kick ass song says "Love me or hate me, still an obsession. Love me or hate that is the questions?" Haters gonna hate & they hate for good reason. You're doing something right if you have fans, good or bad. It's how you handle what they throw at you that determines who you are. Sadly and shamefully, I didn't handle recent events in a way that would make me proud. But that was then, this is now. I know how I would handle the situations if I had the chance again... so if any of you are going through a drama or harassment, remember it's easier to fall to their level than to raise above it, but no one gets anywhere in life by taking the low road... It is extremely easy to get wrapped up in the drama of the "he said, she said" but at the end of the day, trust me you will regret it... it's like a drug or shot of whiskey. The highs are short lived and the lows are destructive to you and all those around you...
 
Remember to NEVER let someone else define you! [& that goes for friends, family, bfs/gfs, bosses, bullies, whoever!] The older I get the more I find myself and who I wanna be and thankfully I have had some amazing (and not so amazing) people in my life to help me get to that point. I am unique in every sense and i love it. You can try to be me but you will fail miserably. And quite frankly why would you wanna be me?? You are you and you're amazing enough!

Katy Perry's new song, "Part of me" fits this perfectly as well...check it out! It's a total "suck it" kinda song (my fav!) later!  xoxo whit

PS- This is what I'm talking about...

Too good to keep to myself!

These pics pretty much speak for themselves! Lol. Brandon's mom tried to give me a leather coat but
Brandon tried it on instead...and well as you see he took a liking to it. Now I have to beg him not to wear it lol I swear it's never a dull moment with him :)
Nothing says stud like a pink steering wheel :)

New license pic!

Ok so i had to do the most dreaded thing in a girls life...get a new license pic!!! its horrible and stressful! will my hair look right?? makeup show up?? smile and look normal?!? Brandon was like "Why are you so worried about your license?"...ugh men! If I am going to have to be stuck with one pic for 4 years it better be a good one!
My permit/first license pic was horribly embarrassing and was always made fun of by the boys in ag and so when I got my second one in 2008 I by golly made sure it wasn't as embarrassing! I was sick as a dog that week but I had to take it before going back to college so I got up and put makeup on and I thought it turned out pretty well... well now that its been 4 years I can honestly say i look NOTHING like i did back then! I have def matured and learned about makeup and what not :) lol I took my new pic this morning and i LOVE it!! im soo thrilled! so i will post you a comparison just so you understand my excitement... Enjoy :) xoxo whit

Aphogee Hair Treatment

So I seen a youtube video awhile back and a woman talked about Aphogee protein treatment and how it is a miracle cure for straw, damanged, bleached hair (aka me!) I finally tried it last night and I'm not so sure. I bought a 2 pack treatment from Sally's for around 2.99 or so. The first part is a serum type product that stinks horribly. You coat your hair and then blow dry it until it is hard and crunchy, then wash it out and use the second part to make it soft and managable.

This morning my hair was kinda greasy looking and didn't seem that much softer or healthier but as we all know the morning after a big treatment it can be like that so tonight will be the test if there is a difference....wish me luck!
xoxo whit

**UPDATE**
My hair seemed to be a little stronger but not a huge difference...i cut my ends off (i cut my own hair) so that made a difference. I have noticed that some of the fuzziness is gone from my baby hairs but for the most part didn't see much of a difference at all. Quite disappointing! If yall try it out let me know your results!

Facebook...Please read all the way thru!

OK so root of all evil may be a little extreme but there are some major issues with FB that I don't think our (my) generation realizes. This past weekend I decided to delete my FB in my own version of detox...crazy right?! And until just a second ago I have only told my parents, 2 friends and my bf...i did decide to send a text to ppl I care about so they would be able to see this and know i didn't forget about them or block them haha...So in this post I'm just going to list a few issues, comments, and concerns I have with FB and then get into why I deleted mine (temporarily)...

1. This is probably the #1 reason we all have a fb...stalking! We stalk our friends, exs, family, current loves, enemies, celebrities, random strangers and their cats...it's all so crazy and obsessive. The way I view it now is; if I am not important enough for them to stalk me, then they are not important enough for me to stalk. Why should I idolize you in some creepy way by knowing your every move & thought if you don't even realize we are friends on fb?? I can guarantee you that not a soul even noticed that i deleted my fb (that's how important I was to them!) And let me get one thing straight, this isn't a "poor pity me, no one likes me post"...just stating a sad reality that I don't think 99% of us realize. All the people that feel its life or death to inform people that they are at Walmart or going to bed or ate a steak, I hate to break it to you but no one cares! And if they did you would be texting them about it not fb...Now realize probably every person on fb has at least 1 to 2 ppl that stalk them religiously for their own reasons (laughter, jealousy, love, hate,drama) so those people may realize i am gone but of course they aren't goin to say anything bc then that would mean they specifically searched for me...and as us good creeps know that is the worst thing that could happen haha

Still not convinced? Check this out then...I found a random girl on fb from outta town(wouldnt know the girl if she punched me in the face) and from just her fb I can tell you all this info about her: full name, phone number, car she drives, address, where she works, when and where she is through out the day, bf's name, email address, family members, tons of photos of inside her house and what she looks like, where she went to school and other random facts...thats a helluva lot of info that a stranger can find out! I don't even like giving guys at the bar my real name & number and they don't even know any of that stuff about me!!!


2. The #2 reason ppl have fb would be close to a tie with #1 and that would be (drum roll please) JEALOUSY! We have them because of it and to create it... girls especially! We have this obsession to update about our new bf & how cute he is, where we went out to eat, how sweet he is...we take 40,000 pics together, write on each others walls so in hopes my ex sees it, his ex sees it, and all of the women in the world see how lucky I am and so i can rub it in their face...how sad is that? Yes, it is human nature to want to have people envy us but really who are we impressing?? Other ppl could careless about who your dating, what your kid is doing and what your doing at that moment...unless it has drama and we can all gossip about what you meant by something or if your single again...big deal...if anything we use it to make funny of other ppl bc of what they will post (pathetic, right?!) But I can bet EVERY single person reading this has done this at some point or another...myself included...


3. I deleted mine bc I want my life back!!!!!!! Ever since smart phones and apps and constant connections became available we don't life in the "real world". I know, I know I sound like our parents but if you tried it you would understand...I now have time and the focus to read a book, play with my puppies, enjoy the people that I'm with, when I'm with them...&& the best part when talking with friends I only have stories about my life to talk about...not random people I added to be nosey... I miss the days of middle school when the weekends started and I couldn't wait to come home and hangout with my parents(nerd) and watch TGIF on ABC channel and saturday morning cartoons...those were the days! i have no clue what my pathetic enemies are doing bc I took myself out of the equation (very adult of me! hehe)...In reality I had around 350 friends and out of those I actually have relationships with about 5! and most everyone I have on fb I would avoid if I ran into them at walmart or wouldn't have a thing to say to them...And all of you with 1200 friends...your not fooling anyone, in fact your probably worse off bc you need some kind of ego boost thinking that all these ppl care about you and like you...i hate to break the bad news to ya...but they don't


4. Now on to the actual truth of why I did it (this is really hard to write about)...3 of my super close friends know the whole story and how emotionally affected I have been by past events in the last few months and for my personal health I have done this bc I need to re-evaluate things and find myself again (corny i know)...I'm not going to explain what happened bc im not going down that road anymore...i would like to think that ppl like my Momma, Brandon, Des, Haylee and Tanya know that the person I have been lately isn't the true me...and it makes me super sad that I have been that way...but extremely happy to know I am healing :) I am an extremely strong, happy, and smart girl and I will NOT be bullied around by pathetic low lifes anymore....I will never know probably why they choose to do that to me but I would like to think the guilt has been enough punishment...i have my flaws but I'm a pretty great friend and there's not a damn thing I wouldn't do for the people i love...I'm sorry to whoever did this & that you felt it was necessary to display such immaturity and insecurity...also, I know who it was...I found out my answer not too long ago...i haven't told a soul so your evil ways are our little secret...your welcome && well played darling


There have been many obstacles I had to climb to get to this point but I'm very happy that I did...like the great Britney Spears sang "I'm stronger than yesterday!" :) I know that the people I love and that love me are proud too...people only wanna bring you down because you're doing something right! :)


Thanks everyone for reading! I love yall!! xoxo whit

Friday, Friday, Gettin down on Friday!

Hey yall! Hope everyone is having a great Friday! Last night I spent my evening until 11 at the ER in Tulsa with my uncle. At first they thought he had a silent heart attack but now they aren't so sure... I always find it interesting to sit in a hospital and look at everyone, drs and nurses included. I have to wonder where people got the idea that drs were handsome and smart like in shows like Grey's but these drs were farrr from tv drs lol...The ER dr that came in had a lisp and I felt like I was living in a real life SNL skit! Poor guy. But it got worse once he was settled into ICU and that dr came to speak with him...i'm not even joking this guy had NO personality...My uncle had his leg removed in 2009 and so the dr asked "Have you had an surgeries?" Being the hilarious person that I am I answered "Well no"...the dr said Ok and started writing it down..really?! Then he proceeded to ask "Do you have a will and testment" My uncle says,"NO, but looks like I'm fixing to make one soon"...kid you not, the dr says "Well not right now you won't unless you have a lawyer present in here, I'm not a lawyer"...wow...really?! people these days lol It was all I could do to not slap him silly or laugh in his face....

Yesterday I did receive my Mizoutlet.com order and Cherry Culture order...YAY!! I will be making a Youtube haul about the products....there are some AWESOME stuff in there..eekk!! :)

Currently I'm jamming to random stations on Pandora. They include: Band Perry, Britney Spears, Randy Rogers, Gary Allan, Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez, Justin Moore and Casey Donahew...Its the perfect mixture of happy :)

Well thats all for now...all other things I could talk about are boring haha...have a wonderful day and weekend! Thanks for reading! xoxo whit

Hair Miracle??

Hello darlings! So I was lookin thru youtube and came across a video that had a hair treatment that I couldn't believe ( well i could but still...). This woman used Monistat (yes the feminine cream) for her scalp to get rid of the fungus that lives on scalp...yuck you may say but there really is a good scientific reason for it! Basically it goes like this...we all have some sort of fungi living on our skin and scalp (that's what dandruff is!). So the science of it is, treat the fungus, get a healthy scalp, grow hair faster!  When you put it in those terms, it makes sense but still vaginal cream on your head?? Monistat's main ingredient is 2% Miconazole Nitrate...basically an antifungal. If your still not sold on the idea then you should see the results! She did a test for 8 days using a diluted version and she was able to get a 1/4 inch growth! Pretty amazing huh??

I've never bought Monistat so I am not sure the cost but I heard it can be expensive so you can use just typical 2% Miconazole Nitrate that is in like the sports or feet health area. I believe I got a tube at the dollar store so can't beat that!
 

Here's what you do!!
1. Decide if you want to dilute or use straight out of a tube. Personally, I diluted mine to get more out of my product and because some side effects of straight use can include: sore to the touch, redness, headaches, and burning (uhh no thanks!). If you dilute, I took about an inch long squeeze from the tube and mixed with about 3 TBSP of warm water and put it in a travel squeeze bottle. (this will be enough for about 5-7 applications!) Shake it together. And your ready to start!

2. Part your hair down the middle and use the squeeze bottle down on your scalp and rub in. You do not have to use a whole lot and remember its for the scalp, not your hair. Keep making parts about 1/2 inch apart because it is watery and will spread out easily.

3. Then let dry and you're ready to go!

FYI... No it doesn't make your head smell, No it doesn't make it greasy, Yes you will have less shedding because the medicine holds the hair in place to heal it. Once you stop completely all of the hair you would have normally shedded will fall out..no biggie tho!

I started this on Monday 2/13/2012 and I have diluted mine and I will use it daily. My hair is about collar bone length so I am excited to see if this helps with my growth! If you have any questions please let me know! I will update on here my process!

Happy day everyone!

Happy Valentine's Day!

hey yall! so I know that I created this like forever ago and then my lazy butt never did anything about it but now I am! I hope love is in the air for everyone...except my enemies then I hope your sitting at home...alone...wishing you were a nice person so people would like you...haha jk (sorta)

Just an update with my life...I got 2 new puppies, Bo and Duke, ( and yes I am aware of the Dukes of Hazard reference!) I am still in love with my job! I am a very lucky girl! I am about halfway thru my first semester of grad school and oh yeah, its going to be the death of me! I have also been spending a lot of time online shopping! :/ and that will be the death of my bank account! But I did find some awesome websites that I want to share!

1. Mizoutlet.com....this is a jewelry website that has a TON of costume jewelry that starts out from $1 to around $1.99 or so. I have made approximately 4 orders from them and I have been pleased with it every time! They also have cosmetics, hair stuff, and other knick knacks but I was in the main hunt for jewelry when I stumbled across them.

2. 599fashion.com....this is a clothing store that has everything for $5.99 or less!!!! I know, unbelievable right?!? Well think again! Now in fairness I haven't actually received my order yet but I seen some reviews on youtube and tons of people say the clothing is very similar to Forever 21 and Charolette Russe. so I'm thrilled about that! And if you know me you know I'm a tight wad and LOVE a great bargain!

Well I promise to try and make an effort to keep this thing updated because I have many things that I would love to rant and rave about! Enjoy!
xoxo whit
