Hey guys! I hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season. I know my bank account is definitely going to be at 0 here real soon and real quick. I have a few gifts for my family and I am making a gift for my boyfriend, so hopefully I am on the right track to get everyone an awesome gift. The only person I am having a hard time shopping for is my second oldest sister. She is one of the pickiest people I know, so I will have fun with that. Enough about me, it is not even Thanksgiving and I am already stressing about Christmas. Is the holiday season coming too early???? I was hearing Christmas music before Thanksgiving, and I was thinking that it is way too early. I work at a mall. I am not going to tell you which mall for privacy reasons, but this mall put up Christmas decorations BEFORE Halloween. Like I personally believe that that is ridiculous! These businesses are moving too quickly into the holiday seasons.  Black Friday is one of the best examples of this. Black Friday...

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I know for myself I had to cut mine short due to working, and the people destroyed the store. It was an awful way to end the night or I should say morning because I was there until 4 a.m. on Friday. I did make a butt load of money so #blessed. Yikes, the hashtag... Should it still be around? Or even where did it come from and why is it still popular???? The first time I personally saw a hashtag sign was on the phone. It is actually called a pound sign or so I have been told. I would always call the gift card numbers to see how much was on the card and the robot voice would state, "Please enter the three digit security code located on the back of the card followed by the pound sign." Never was it used for other reasons until now. It has made it's way all around social media and even used to bring about situations. What I mean when I say situations, I mean raising awareness of medical conditions or social matter, ...

Hey guys! I hope everyone is doing well, maybe even getting some better sleep (wink wink). I certainly haven't been getting better sleep, but that's also because my job is asking me to stay until 3:30 a.m. I certainly don't hate them for making me stay, I am getting paid well, but not enough to be doing that!! Other than not going to bed on time, I have tried to do other items that I had suggested on my "tiredness" blog, exercise. I had recently gotten a gym membership to try to be more active since I am no longer in school related sports. I had noticed my eating habits were getting bad, and that I started to feel very sluggish and had no motivation to get up early, or even at all. It started to wear me out and I wasn't even doing anything... Why workout??? Not only does it improve your health by staying fit, it allows your body to rid of all the unwanted toxins inside the body. Usually from what you eat and drink. Other cases of unwanted toxins can be what ...

Hey guys! I hope everyone is doing well. Today I wanted to talk to everyone about this post that I saw on AZCentral. If you don't know what that is it is a news report website that talks about daily news in Arizona. I know most of you might not be in college or even care about school, but just seeing the title I started to get upset. AZCentral  - So as you can see I put the link on here to go to the article where Doug Ducey, Arizona's governor, is talking about how more students in Arizona need to graduate from college. UM WHAT???? Clearly he is talking to majority of the students in high school and in college right now saying graduate! because it will be beneficial to you, in theory yes it can but will it? In reality it will only help the government.  What are you trying to say not enough of us are trying? I am sorry that the education system is messed up to where teachers are getting so little pay and so they don't care... College is a free for all (not actually free) ...

Hey guys! How is everything? I hope it is going good because we are so close to the wonderful holiday season. There is a lot of snowbirds (old folk) coming into Arizona for the winter to escape the dreadful snow in their home state, so driving in Arizona is beginning to suck. But besides that it is becoming a magical holiday season. In my English 102 class my professor decided that we were going to watch a video in class. This video is called "Capitalism: A love Story". Michael Moore is the director, star, producer, and much more of this video, which also means he has majority of the say in the movie. He has a particular way on how to go about the topic discussed within the video. It of course discusses Capitalism, because well that's in the title. But he talks about the effects from capitalism in his personal experience and others experience with it. Capitalism has been more of a disaster within the United States because it has hurt the American People. One topic d...

Hey guys! I wanted to discuss what it means to be tired and how to combat it. Everyone has their moments of being tired... Especially in college it can become so easy to fall in a constant state of being mentally or physically exhausted. Being mentally exhausted is when your brain can no longer focus, you start to not remember basic information. Being physically exhausted is when your body becomes heavy, and you feel sluggish. Both are horrible feelings in the overall scheme of life. To be honest with everyone, I am mentally exhausted... Being in college is hard. I know many many people have made it through college, but this is my first semester and I feel like I'm having more anxiety attacks now than I ever will in the future. I'm just trying to learn how to control my sleeping habits and other tips and tricks along the way. There are many tips and tricks that can help to just get a good night's rest. Getting the right amount of sleep vary for every person. Everyone sh...

Hey guys! I hope everyone is doing well! I know it has been an insanely busy and crazy holiday season. There is one subject I do want to discuss during this "jolly" season, social media . It is an insanely dangerous tool that can either destroy or build a reputation for a person or company. For a specific business in Arizona, there is a business that uses social media to benefit themselves. I've included the link from  Fox 10 ,  they described "Liberty Market" in Old Town Gilbert finding themselves with a ton of customers that have seen pictures and reviews on yelp. Fox 10 is a news station reporting on how a restaurant has found more business through the power of the social media. (This picture represents a social media term "food porn". Making you hungry by looking at just a photo.) This is amazing!! I'm so in love with food, and so when there is a business that is striving with amazing food in the state that I live, of course I will be ...
