30-Minute Work Day Regimen: Face and Side Braid!

Well, I finally got the courage to do another video tutorial for my week day routine. Please bear with me, as I am terrible at this. I definitely have a tendency to mumble and go on forever so I will be growing and hopefully getting better with each attempt. This is exactly what I do every morning before I head off to work. Hope everyone can handle this learning process and benefit from my personal experience!

I did all this before heading out to surprise my dad for his 60th birthday! My stepmom and I were secretly planning all week and it was a success!!

It has been a few years since I have seen and spent time with my dad. We had some differences that I needed to mature to deal with. But life is way too short to hold grudges and not learn from. This was a good opportunity for us to catch up and bond! Hoping to see them more often and spend some time together during the holidays!!

Growth, Perspective, and Silence

"Some days, I can conquer the world. Other days, it takes me three hours to convince myself to shower"- the perfect Pinterest quote! This 27th year has been one of growth and reflection. I truly thought looking at 27 year-old people then that by the time I had reached this point that I would be an independent, sexy, confident woman with this spectacular job and a hardworking stud by my side! Some of this came true, but not much! I've got the stud, that's about it! That being said, I came into this year thinking that I knew who I was, where I was heading and that I had a great man to share it all with. One thing that people normally won't tell you is that when your relationship becomes committed and you're around the other person practically 24/7, they begin to see your flaws and, if you're as lucky as I am, they begin to help you become a better person. One thing that anyone who knows us will tell you is that when you meet the beau and I for the first ti...

The Budgeted Blonde, MD-DNP

Happy Friday Eve!! Finally, it's my weekend! In celebration, I treated myself to my favorite Mexican, glass of Apothic, and catching up on the DVR. Recently, I heard a commercial on Pandora for a new medical drama on NBC, Heartbeat. Normally, I am really skeptic of these since I have a medical background, am working toward a medical career and they can sometimes be unrealistic! I worked for 5 years in a medical office in my hometown, during the time I specialized in OB/GYN, pediatrics, internal medicine, and phlebotomy. With this, I have always tried but failed to become obsessed with any medical drama. I recorded this show on a whim, especially since they described the main character to be a surgeon who plays by her own rules, my kind of girl!! Watching this pilot, I slowly fell in love with this character; her sass and wittiness is similar to mine so it wasn't really that difficult, plus she's also a blonde!! The first episode was (SPOILER ALERT) her separa...

We Don't Talk About That...

Mental health has never been a "hot topic" or a common dinner conversation, it is usually dusted under the rug and left to fester til another day. Honestly, I'm writing this for my own mental health, rather my sanity. Since this virus took over our lives, being forced to live completely out of the norm has made mental health become a little bit more of a subject but not by much. Being bored and forced to be in the same house almost 24/7 can cause you to focus on things you wouldn't normally think about. This is also true for myself. Up until now, I haven't really discussed with anyone but close friends and family what I have struggled with for a long time. To me, you talk about it and everyone will think you're looney. Well, I'm over it and tired of hiding it so here goes! When I lived in Orlando, I had extremely high anxiety for the first time. I was basically alone full time miles away from my hometown. I tried so desperately to avoid facing what I...
