Weird Things I Tried That I Ended Up Liking

They aren't all "weird" per say.

But here are some of the things I've tried that I ended up loving.

Acupuncture:

I know. It sounds a little creepy to some people to have tiny needles stuck in you. But you actually can't feel the needles. And its fun!

Bubble Tea

[Pinterest]

I tried this fairly recently (we don't have any place near by that sells it.) And now I'm hooked. The place we got it from is too far away to drive, so now I have to learn how to make it myself. 

Tim Tams

Crunchy chocolate cookies with creamy chocolate filling. Dipped in chocolate. These are extremely amazing. (And I'm not really a chocolate person. Or a cookie person.) If you want to try them, most grocery stores have them now. I'm told Kroger does and I normally get them from Meijer. 

British Candy

[Pinterest]
You may or may not know of my love of tea, scones and British food. I am extremly fond of Crunchie Bars, Flake chocolate bars, vimto flavored bon bons and Maltesers
These particular candies I found at a British Food's store near me, but you can order them online. 

Mochi

A Japanese sweet. Has a pasty doughy taste. 

And that is why you should try new things! Because there are so many good things out there!

Or maybe it is the reason you should NOT try new things. You'd end up like me, ordering a strange assortment of sweets off the internet and writing boring blog posts about them.

Pros and Cons of Cutting Your Hair

 I love my pony tail. But I'm cutting my hair because I've been wearing that pony tail so long, I think it will become self aware pretty soon. (And then it can love me back and we'll be best friends. "Sorry boys. Me and my bestie here are going to town for coffee." *hair flip*)
Honestly, I haven't  had my hair shorter then shoulder length since I was three. So while I love my long fluffy pony tail, I want to try different things.
So to deal with this big step, I decided to make a blog post about it!
....

Obviously, that was written BEFORE my lovely locks were chopped off. It went ok. My hair went from mid-shoulder length hair that I always wore in a pony tail to....this. It looks kind of like Rapunzel, after her hair cut. Not quite that short and its kind of....fluffy. Oops. I forgot how big my hair was. Anyway, ON WITH THE POST! (Because you really don't want to hear me whine about my hair.)


Pro:
The more hair you've got, the more time you have to spend brushing it, drying it, washing it, etc. If you have REALLY long hair, it can take HOURS to dry. What should you do with this extra time? This new found freedom? Read a book? WRITE a book? Learn something utterly useless and pointless like how to sing that one lullaby from Brave....in Gaelic. (WHY?)

Con:
That mini heart attack you get when you go to run your fingers through your hair and...it's not there. Or when you go to look in the mirror. Who is that person? Where did my hair go!?!  Oh, wait. That's right. I had it cut a couple days ago.
It seems like no matter how much you cut off, you miss it. You can even tell if you cut off an inch or two.

Pro:
Your shampoo and conditioner lasts longer. (Unless you have sisters. Then it will still disappears quickly)

Cons:
MY HAIR. MY BEAUTIFUL HAIR. I JUST LEFT IT LYING THERE ON THE SALON FLOOR. *Sobbing* (Yes, I'm a little attached. But maybe that is a good reason to cut it...)

Pro: I felt REALLY smug though when ever somebody came by and was just like "Whoa! That's a lot of hair!"

Con: You actually have to do something with it EVERY DAY (or at least everyday you leave the house, which for me, isn't all that often). You can't just throw it in a pony tail and go. And you have to do new things with your hair. (Because I'm lazy, I will probably end wearing a bandanna around my head like a biker all summer long...)

Pro: It's fun to get your hair cut in a salon.

Con: Sometime, it doesn't turn out like you expected....

Pro: It's an adventure!

(Whee)

Comment below and tell me about your own hair experiences? What is the longest and shortest you have ever went? Go to style? Rando hair problems?

#Randomness

Hello guys. I thought I would make a post to tell y'all about what's going on with me right now.




I have literally been so swamped with homework, it's ridiculous. But its cool, I can deal with it.
(also explains why I have absent from the blogging world)


I am taking my permit test on Monday which means I will start driving soon. It is completely blowing my mind!!!!!  The prospect of driving freaks me out. You are putting me in charge of a 2 ton vehicile
and hoping I don't crash or something........

Confessions

Alright guys.

I have something I'd like to share with you guys that I've been dealing with my entire life.



I...














am a Disney nerd.




Side effects include:
Randomly bursting into song
Expecting animals to come help you with cleaning
Being happy all the time



If you know anyone with this condition, tell them there is nothing that can be done for them. This will affect you all your life.




Ok guys, this is literally the most random thing ever but I had to write this out. I hope you get a laugh out of this.
And since the best part of Disney is the music. Here.

(Peter Pan is my favorite!!!)

Love,
-Lia
