Monday Thoughts: Voice Crush

Lately I've been watching The Good Wife. For those who don't know what the show is about, it's basically about a wife who sticks by her husband's side after a public scandal. She also goes back to working as a lawyer after thirteen years of being a stay at home mom. The show follows her struggles at work and outside of work. I love the show, I'd have to say it's my new favorite right now.

Friday: Over; Childish; World Issues

Happy Friday! I'm going to have a very interesting weekend and I will talk about it next week. Let's get on to my advice shall we?

Is this relationship over?
I have been in a deep relationship with my boyfriend for the past five years. On Sunday night he told that he wasn't in love with me anymore and he was crying as he said it. We have a long history together and times have been really stressful lately. But I need to hear it, is this relationship over?

Dear Anonymous,
I can't tell you yes or no but I can tell you that even though he may not be in love with you, he still in a way loves you. And he loved you enough to be honest with you. The relationship, the boyfriend and girlfriend part of the relationship is possibly over but the friendship part isn't.

Thursday Beauty: Beauty Tips

I will be honest I don't wear makeup on a daily basis. But over the years I've read up on makeup, some do's and don'ts of the trade and there were some tips that have I have learned over the years.
1. Use makeup is to enhance your features. If you love your eyes then enhance them. If you love your lips then show them off.
2. Don't hide behind your makeup. Confidence doesn't come from how good you look on the outside, it comes from how good you feel inside. No amount of makeup can cover up an ugly heart.
3. Foundation is for women over 30. This may seem mean and possibly stupid but I remember reading in an article that foundation should be used for woman over 30 so use a tinted moisturizer or BB Cream to help even out your skin tone if you need to. But if you love your foundation and don't want to leave it then continue to wear it because it is up to you.
4. Less is more for the day. A simple makeup look during the day is perfect and doesn't require much time.
5. Protect yourself from the sun. Wear sunscreen or anything with SPF15 or higher is good and don't forget to protect those lips as well.

Crying On A Suitcase

Boy don’t wait, don’t think, don’t lock the door behind you
Run and jump into your truck, hit the gas, burn some rubber up
Yeah your time’s running out
Do it now

There are many times when I've wanted to pack up and leave. There were times when I wanted to pick up my phone and call the one person I know who would take me away from my problems. The thing is, I know I can't run away from my problems because my problems will still be there when I get back. So there's no point in running away from something. However there is a point to running to something.

Monday Thoughts: Rambling

Over the weekend I kept thinking that some people forget that others have feelings as well. Sometimes we all get caught up in how we feel that we forget to think about how the other person or the people around us might be feeling. I keep thinking that people are forgetting how I feel, as selfish as that may sound right now, I feel lost without the people I care about, or the people who I at least thought cared about me too.
They say people put up walls to see who will try to knock them down and right now no one seems to be knocking down the walls I've put up. Everyone is doing their own thing, living their own life and I feel like I'm being left out. I like being alone but I hate being lonely. And that's how I feel right now, I feel lonely and lost like no one is there for me when all I did was be there for them.
I know that they all have their own lives and I understand that because I have my own life too but that doesn't mean I don't have time for my friends.

Friday: Outsider; His Feelings; Weed Off

This has been a pretty boring week for me. I spent a lot of time by myself, which I don't mind because I like being alone but I dislike being lonely.

I feel like an outsider with my friends.
I'm always the one in the group being ignored, the one who's always left out, the one who's just kinda "there". If that makes sense. I honestly try so hard to be their friends. I have no idea what to do, and I feel like no matter what I do, it doesn't matter and that I'm not good enough, not funny enough, not pretty enough, or not outgoing enough. Any advice please, I could really use it.

Dear Anonymous,
Sometimes you have to stop trying so hard and just be yourself. Don't worry about be the funny, pretty or outgoing and just be you. Sometimes you get so caught up in trying to be things and you forget to be yourself. The reason they became friends with you is who you are and not who they want. If it's hard to be friends with them then maybe they're just not the people you should be friends with.
I moved in the middle of 3rd grade and all these girls at my new school already had their own group and even though they tried to include me, I still felt like an outsider, so I do understand how you feel.
When we went to junior high, I made new friends, people I actually fit in with and never had to feel like I was trying.
Friends are suppose to make you feel comfortable, and make you feel like you belong. If you don't feel that way then you should think about making new friends especially if you can't seem to make it work with your current friends.
