Q: My new bf has been with like 15 girls. I'm pretty confident in my skills, but what can I do that will really "wow" him do you think?

2010-12-03T17:42:00.002-05:00

So my friend called me the other day, just got out of a 2 year relationship less than a month ago and she's really into this new guy, but she's nervous that because he's been with a lot of girls that she won't be able to capture his attention.

My Answer: You already have his attention. Duh.

First of all, just because he's had a lot of sex doesn't mean he's had a lot of good sex. Secondly, what happens in bed is as much a function of the mind as it is of the body. So your attitude toward sex could play an even bigger role than the techniques you're using.

Maybe you want to try something you've never done before, like sex in a public place. Enthusiasm is sure to make him say "Wow"

Deep Thought...

Its one of those days...I feel totally lost. And the thing is on days like these, he's the only one to make it better. Just a look, that look that tells me he's there through absolutely everything, thats all that I need. I woke up this morning in a grey cloud, just that feeling that today would be an awful day. I went to my History of Visual Communications class and aced a test. After that, black hole. I wanted to go to bed and never wake up. I pride myself on positive feelings and always being optimistic, so when I feel like this I just wanna hide, bury the imperfections and disappear. My mood always subsides, but today feels different. Like I'm not gonna get over it or something. I need some distractions, being an art student and having no art courses this semester has both been a drag and depressing. I miss being totally immersed in designing and chaos. I miss feeling like my education had a purpose. And the sadder thing is in less than 6 months it will all be over.

I've never been so excited to get on with my life and really make something of myself, but recently, I'm more scared than ever !

Been gone for far too long....

Sooooo, I've been in Florida since January. On nothing but a Disney Internship. Experience of a lifetime if I must say anything. Crazyyyyy. Im still unsure if anything I did was worth it. I'm behind in school, officially the laziest person ever, want to do nothing beneficial for myself, just have fun. Sad thing is, back to reality I've been since Sept. and boyyyyy can I tell you its been the hardest thing in my life. Getting back after a 7 month vacation..... HA !!!!

Not sooo simple.

I miss Florida, everyday. Not the job even for a second. But the memories and the freedom, thats hard to find here at home.

Battling sadness and trying to figure out who I really am, is hard and challenging but I'm embarking on a journey to truly discover who I am.

When I'm crashing through the madness, not sure who Im supposed to be, its your hand that's leading me.....

Here with you I feel it, close my eyes and see it,
in a midnight talk, in a morning kiss, when I'm in your arms that's where it is, come and take a walk, we cant resist, when we feel that rush,
That's where it is <3

To my heart:

2010-06-10T00:31:00.001-04:00

In order to fufill everything you need, I guess i need to know what that is first, i thought you wanted to be in love, you are. Then I thught to myself, maybe you need a commitment, you have it. Is that ever enough? To be fully loved and commited to? Why do i feel incomplete? When hes around, Im whole. I feel like Im where i need to be and with whom im meant to be with. But when we argue, when Im hurt or misunderstood, i just wanna give up. Whats making me hold on? I couldnt give you that answer even if i tried. Holding on in this relationship has been difficult, but theres no place else id rather be. Im sitting, praying and hoping with my wishes, that my boyfriend comes bak to me. The one i fell in love with. His laugh, charm and smile. I miss him. More and more everday. I know he doesnt mean to hurt my feelings, but it hurts, it hurts to be put down and swore at, and belittled. Its not as bad as I was before, i dont care. Youre never going to do that to me ! It wont happen, you need to understand that even a little is to much. You dont talk to someone like that. Esp someone you love. I guess what im trying to say is, im trying. Im trying to give you everything you need heart so you wont hurt anymore, but its hard. Its so very hard to deal with everyday. Wondering...am i enough? Did i do something wrong? Truth is, i never do, im constatnly giving 110% but even at the slightest frustration, he gives up. Im not sure if thats something i can handle. Fight for me. I hate to sit here and wonder, while you just sit here and ignore. Where do i turn now? I dont need to be the center of attn. thats the last thing i want, i just want to be understood. its nice for someone else to kow what youre talking about. to get you. you know.

2010-06-09T10:04:00.001-04:00

I was thinking today when Mr. Muscles mentioned that he tries everyday to be romantic, and do romantic things to keep me happy. I dont need romance everyday, just knowing I’m loved and understood for who I am, Each day to wake up and really know that he loves me because I am Meghan Rose, and I have a heart of gold and would do anything to help, love and protect him for the rest of my life. So this adds a new component, are romacnce and passion a part of love? Or is love a result of passion and romance? And the answer to this question I am still unsure of. I can tell you one thing though, I am in love, I enjoy romance and passion, but do we need them to be in love? For everyone, I am unsure. For me, yes. Passion is an aspect of my realtationship that I seek and look to, everyday. I dont need romance, roses and cards and fancy dinners or surprises all the time...or even sparatically for that matter. But passion...that look you get when you look at each other, the kiss after a long day, holding hands during a movie, the dip during a dance or while Im cooking dinner, the thank you after I do something normal that is just part of my dailt schedule. But my favorite, the look n his eyes when Im doing something I love, that locked look where i find him just staring, and I smile. The look of complete wonder, in that I see how much he loves me, adn the world stops. Even for an instant I know that we are one. And nothing will ever come between us. Its quite often followed with, “Im so in love with you” “i cant wait to have a family with you someday” or “Your’e so beautiful Meghan” I love it. The feeling is unbeatable. So no, I dont need romance, keep the flowers. But I want the passion, I want that feeling of completeness. Where even for an instant, five minutes or an hour, its just us two, together, falling in love, all over again.

So....

2010-06-08T15:53:00.001-04:00

...how do you know when you're actually in love, i arrived at this question today when Mr. Muscles sent me an ever popular “Love you :)” text and my reiterated response being,” Love you more !” I think the playful arguemtn is a common argument within young relationships. But why? Does it make us feel better to hear it back, even though the painful truth may be that this is just another little bicker that we enjoy to have in our relationships. I mean how do we ever really know who loveds who more? Or if we even love another at all. I can tell you, its this feeling of completeness, I feel whole when hes around, like nothing can touch me, nothing is going to hurt me. And I think the real reason I know it, I know, everyday that no matter what happens to me, i want him to be the person next to me when I fall asleep. I want him to be the person that I wake up next to and kiss in the morning. It never gets old, hearing Im beautiful, the innocent kisses that turn to passionate love, the soft touch when he stares into my eyes and holds my cheeks to kiss me gently. Nothing compares. I’ve levde others before, but have I ever been in love? I’m not sure, im still not sure if I have ever been in love, what I do know is that I have never loved aother the way I love him, and the feelings I have go to the grave, I put him first, worry constantly and have claws out for any girlt that lays eyes on him, Im protective and loving and crazy and wildy in love with this boy. He’s everythng. And telling him I love him, just seems to be a way of letting him know that Im here, always here. Bur when he argues, i love you more abby, I lifght up inside, I feel good. Why? Does he love me more, how does he know, how will we ever know? Can love be measured by anyone? Or maybe the real question is, Why do we feel the constant need to be reassured?

1st Off.... I want you to understand I’m from a small town in New York, very small, the cows are close in numbers, here we have a few things in common with everyone around, big families, long driveways and huge hearts. I’m an only child and the center and soul of my parents lives, I adore puppies, cant ever get enough ice cream and could walk around the lake for hours. I could spend days on a boat and take a wine tour weekly, I miss High School, I love my Volleyball Senior Team more than any group Ive ever been a part of. My parents are my best friends. I have a fedish with designer bags and lip gloss. I think with my heart nearly, no, all the time. My head always gets in the way. Creating and dreaming are my two biggest pastimes, I’m always doing something big. I dream to open a Bed and Breakfast,
I love the city but belong in my small town, a sundress is my choice of apparel and I have found the love of my life in a guy the exact opposite of me in every way. Despite every feeling and thought I haev each day, I know I have found the guy I am going to marry ad share my life with, and I can honestly say that I have never in my life been happier. So i guess the comments and stories that will be shared after this post are those of my life, my thoughts, my dreams and my favorite things. Foremost, understand this, I am now and always a country girl <3

2009-11-21T23:26:00.003-05:00

My trust was with you, 100%

Believe in me, like I believed in you that day...I lost myself in the softness of your eyes and the touch of your hand...my faith lies within you, and that I can't retrieve...don't let me down baby, you helped me find myself, the parts of me that I lost so long ago...you and I are perfection, and you and I know that I am the one to save you, but the next step; its yours to take... trust me when I say I'll never let go <3

One Tree Hill Quotes...

2009-11-21T22:45:00.002-05:00

Truth is still absolute. Bel ieve that. Even when that truth is hard and cold, and more painful than you've ever imagined. And even when truth is more cruel than any lie.

Lucas: Because it´s only when you´re tested that you truly discover who you are. And it´s only when you´re tested that you discover who you can be. The person that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the HEARTACHE and fear of what life has.

Lucas: My name is Lucas Scott. I'm a senior at Tree Hill High School. Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world. Maybe it's nothing like it. But if you look closer, you might see someone like you. Or someone like my best friend, Haley. If you're married, a senior in high school, and not sure if your husband is still alive, then I'd say your world is a lot like Haley's. Today was supposed to be the best day of her life. But it's amazing how things can change in the blink of an eye. Or, in this case, in 29 minutes.

Lucas: (voiceover) Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred.How did it find us? Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us? That we now send our children out into the world like we send young men to war, hoping for their safe return but knowing that some will be lost along the way. When did we lose our way? Consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness. Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?

Much as some of us fight it,
Our parents have a mystical hold over us,
The power to affect out thoughts and emotions,
The way only they can.
It's a bond that changes over time, but doesn't diminish,
Even if they are half a world away .....
....or in other world entirely.
It's a power we never fully understand,
We're left only to wonder that when our time comes,
What kind of hold will we have on our children ?

"If you could go back and change one thing about your life, would you? And if you did, would that change make your life better? Or would that change ultimately break your heart? Or break the heart of another? Or would you choose an entirely different path? Or would you change just one thing, just one moment? One moment, that you've always wanted back."

"There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment, you must choose your direction. Will you fight to stay on path? Will others tell you who you are? Or will you label yourself? Will you be haunted by your choice? Or will you embrace your new path? Each morning you choose to move forward or simply give up."

"There comes a time when every life goes off course. In this desperate moment who will you be? Will you let down your defenses, and find solace in someone unexpected? Will you reach out? Will you face your greatest fear bravely? And move forward with faith. Or will you succumb to the darkness in your soul?"

"Someone once said; 'It’s the good girls who keep diaries. The bad girls never have the time. Me… I just wanna live a life I’m gonna remember. Even if I don’t write it down."

"T.H. White said; perhaps we all give the best of our hearts uncritically…to those who hardly think about us in return."

And when you thought that no one knew what you were thinking, I saved you.

Sometimes in life when you get what you want, you end up missing what you left behind.- Scrubs

Be with who makes you happy, even if it means you're always running back.

When you really care about someone... you have to be willing to be hard on them. The truth will always hurt but not as bad as the knowledge of the lie later on.

But there's a story behind everything. How a picture got on a wall. How a scar got on your face. Sometimes the stories are simple, and sometimes they are hard and heartbreaking

I realized I had just entered an interesting chapter in my life. I had outgrown the boys of my past and not quite grown into the men of my future. -Sex & The City

"Just wait and be hopeful. " I was hopeful though, perhaps this was what I had wanted all along. To wait forever. -Andre Aciman

If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's that you make your own family.

The best relationships were the ones where both sides went out of their way to make sure the other wasn't disappointed.

People say love's complicated but it's not. be good to your partner: fight for him not with him. And above all, be honest. - instant star

Who wants that? I'd rather choose to fall in love and be hurt. Sometimes I can't even sleep because I love someone so much. And there's always sadness in our lives. It's that sad feeling that keeps us going. Because if we can overcome that sadness, we can hope for happiness in the future -House

Randomly she bites her lip, hiding the picture in her mind. Randomly she smiles, she remembers every word you said that night.

Loving someone makes you forget the difference between right and wrong. -Desperate Housewives

Sometimes we wait too long for things that are never going to come.

Well, love is insanity . The ancient Greeks knew that. It is the taking over of a rational and lucid mind by delusion and self-destruction. You lose yourself, you have no power over yourself, you can't even think straight. - Marilyn French

The love of your life might not actually be someone with whom you could spend a lifetime with.

It had taken her years to understand, but now she was a firm believer: Love was that way. You could not render it in black and white. It always came down to the strange, blended shades of gray. -Jodi Picoult, Picture Perfect

You know that feeling? That feeling when you just want the right thing to fall into the right place, not only because it's right, but because it will mean that such a thing is still possible? I want to believe that.- Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist

Sometimes I think I am out of my league, and then sometimes I think I can dream. Sometimes I wish I could be the one fish that you choose out of all in the sea. -Hellogoodbye

After a break-up, certain street, locations, even times of day are off-limits. The city becomes a deserted battlefield, loaded with emotional landmines. You have to be very careful where you step or you could be blown to pieces. - Sex & The City

But there's another kind of love, Amanda. One that gives you the courage to be better than you are, not less than you are. One that makes you feel that anything is possible. I want you to know that you could have that. I want you to hold out for it...
(Nights in Rodanthe)

You think I'm better, truth is I'm only better with you.... (Me)

Feels like home to me... (How to lose a guy in 10 days)

And we listen to the songs that say what we feel inside.... (Me)

Wake up and see just what, what could be. My life as, as good as it ever be, ever be... (Follow Me, Kid Cudi)

Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure....

You gotta take some chances, you gotta risk losing it all, you gotta close your eyes and leap because it just might be worth the fall....

This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes. It's a universal truth. But the good part is, you get to decide how you're gonna mess it up.... (Marilyn Monroe)

People say that bad memories cause the most pain, but its the good ones that actually drive you insane.

The real world, whether we like it or not, is right here, right now. All of this, every day, is important. Everybody matters. Everything we do has an effect on other, directly or indirectly, whether we realize it or not.

And while I don't need anyone else but myself, life is worth while because of these girls....

Used to carry the weight of the world, now all I wanna do it spread my wings and fly....

And I'm beginning to think it was my fault that I fell for every word....

I can't figure out what's worse. Remembering the memories, or trying to and realizing that they're so far away and not being able to remember them. -Hannah

And tonight darling I wont sleep I'm going to try my best and prevent those dreams of you.

It was amazing, really, just how much pain the human heart could take. -Nora Roberts

And the truth is, I need you more than I've ever needed anyone.

Her heart was ripped in two and she was struggling to breathe, but somehow she knew that if she had the choice, she'd go back and do it all again. That's how pathetic she was.That's how weak-minded and desperate she had become.

And If heartbreak is a compliment, then I must be amazing.

***How can you tell me time after time, I'll take care of you, You're amazing, You're Beautiful, I'll make this work you've seen nothing yet, believe me I won't hurt you...and all the while I was falling into those eyes and farther into your heart, with my smile whispering you can have me forever, and the same time, my head was screaming no.

I hate this feeling. The whole I need you to breathe feeling. . . it's so overrated.

I had gone so far out on a limb with my feelings but I didn't realize I was standing out there alone. -Sex & the City

You know how people say 'It'll be fine. Everything is going to be ok'? They say that because they cant think of anything else -Michael Robotham, Suspect

This is how I spent my summer-- wanting you, but I was too afraid to tell you. -One Tree Hill

If he's dumb enough to walk away be smart enough to let him go.

Have you ever woke up from a really good dream & just tried to go back to sleep? Or had the flu & you promise yourself that you'll appreciate normal so much more if you could just get back to it? That's the way I feel; I just want things to go back to the way they were -One Tree Hill

An ending with no explanation...

Something going so perfectly and just stopping for no reason...or you telling me how much I mean to you and how perfect I am over and over and that you will never hurt me, and then just letting it all go....

<3>

Things to make you go......

WHAT THE F !

Sometimes I feel like I have nothing better to do than sit around and look up retarded shit....but I came across this recently and felt it worthy of a post....

Weird that I keep finding strange gadgets lately.....
Like the Cuchini...

Now its.......

The Kush

Providing relief for side sleepers everywhere, the Kush is an "anatomically contoured accessory" that fits between your breasts to prevent boob crushage while you snooze. We think that the chick in this video looks like she's got a dildo nestled between her bosoms, but that's just us.

2009-10-05T13:37:00.001-04:00

WTF !

Really now......

The Cuchini

There's only one kind of cleavage that's hot (or two, counting toe if you're into that sort of thing), and the cooter kind is not one of them. Which is where the Cuchini comes in. It's a pad that slips into your undergarments to "smooth the ridges of a woman's mons pubis area." That's technical jargon for fix yourself, girl, you've got a cameltoe. So the next time you, like the women in this video, shimmy into your fave pair of too-tight spandex shorty-shorts and hike them up to your chin, at least have the decency to "seal your lips" with the Cuchini.

It's almost as if.......

2009-10-04T17:13:00.002-04:00

...the little girl inside me doesn't want to give up the dream of what she thought her life was going to be like, what she thought her life was supposed to be like.

But if I don't let go of her dreams, I may never find that mine could be a million times better.

I love where my life is these days, I learned to let go of some of my past and take the risk of actually stepping out into life alone....Your parents aren't the only thing that keep you tied down....I've been happier these past few months than in a long time.....
and I'm loving it.

So if you're ever afraid to take a risk, don't be.....
Everything will be just fine :)

Never think about the future - because it comes soon enough.

FAV photo shoot EVA !

2009-10-02T17:05:00.004-04:00

This was one of my favorite assignments EVER
....Sophomore Year
I shot my friend Syd as a Rich, Dignified, Classy somewhat perfect woman.
The underlying theme was, Just because her life seems perfect doesn't mean it is.
Things aren't always as they appear !

The true story is Syd (the model/character)
is hiding her true self under her perfect image.

She is Beautiful, Poised, Intelligent and Classy.
She is very rich and envied by everyone.
Every man both eligible and wed, wishes he was the one to steal her heart.

But for those who can't see the true Syd.....

She is battered, beaten, hooked on drugs and alcohol
and often uses prostitution as a way of income.

Goes to show you....Life isn't as perfect as it may seem.

Who wears SHort Shorts !!!!

2009-10-02T16:45:00.003-04:00

I LOVE Short Shorts and I think everyone does...BUT....
When is it NOT okay to wear short shorts !

Well a job interview for one....
Meeting the boo's parents, not a good idea....
When you're going to an amusement park....dont pull out the super short guys, some lines go up stairs, hence there will be people beneath you....
HAHA

You don't have to wear short shorts to be hott !
These aren't short shorts but their still SEXY !

Anyway you get the drift....
Now....you can wear short shorts without being tacky....
For example, I have played volleyball for the past 13 years of my life, and my legs definitely show it....I have crazy often man like looking legs.....Heels !- not my friend, they just bust even more !
Haha, now to the opposite sex, this is a good thing, however being a girl, you want toned legs and trust me their toned, but if I work out that day, Ewe....
THERE IS SUCH A THING AS OVERLY TONED !
HAHAHA

Anyway....moral of the completely boring scenario....I wear short shorts !
And I work it !

1. I have the legs.
2. I have the butt
3. I am under 30
4. I love the stares from my boy ;)

And from one lady to another...keep it classy and if you've got it FLAUNT IT !

XOXO

Faux Dreads....

2009-10-02T16:32:00.002-04:00

A Fashion
DO or DO NOT ???

Personally I think that Faux dreads are super hott on the right person.....
Like Jessica Szhor for example, her inspired dreads are perfection.....
Plus she has the face frame that can virtually pull off any hairstyle.....

Deliberation.....

I LOVE IT <3

BRING IT BACK !

2009-10-01T13:58:00.004-04:00

an old favorite of alllll....

TWISTER !!!!

Have a Twister night and spend some time with good friends laughing
As always Sydders McGee and I planned a fun night, to only in turn be told by the boys* we're too tired....
Well what I have to say to them is don't stay up so late and spend so much time with the boys and you wouldn't be tired for us !!!!
Stop playing penis hockey and maybe you'll get laid !

Ps. Twister leads to calorie burning laughter and bedtime giggles with your man ...

Things to make you go......

2009-10-01T13:53:00.002-04:00

WTF !

Now I love props just as much as the next girl....but I found these ideas in a magazine the other day.....not so sure if I would EVER.....

and after having a convo with the girlfriends...they all agreed their hookups/BF's would opening thank us for not attempting !!!

HAHA...

To all the rest...GO forth and happily play :)

Do something unexpected with toys you already have lying around the house.

Ice.....

2009-10-01T13:52:00.001-04:00

Is your lust life on the rocks? It should be...!

1. Begin with a slightly melted ice cube in your mouth. Kiss your guy and pass it back and forth. As it gets smaller and smaller, hide it in different places so he has to try to find it with his tongue.

2. Use the ice cube to trace a chilly path along his naked body and then follow it with your tongue. The temp change will heighten his pleasure, while the anticipation of watching where your lips go will send him over the edge.

3. Put the ice in your man’s hand and guide it so that he draws circles around the outside of your breasts, slowly working his way toward your nipples.

4. While giving your guy oral, alternate putting your lips over his penis and lightly rubbing his shaft with the ice cube. The combination of your warm mouth and chilly temperature will make his jaw drop.

5. Ask him to touch you with it over your thin-skinned spots: wrists, inner elbow, behind your knees. Stimulating those sensitive areas feels so sensual.

6. When your guy is going down on you, have him alternate between lightly touching your clitoris with the ice and using his mouth and tongue. If you’re extra-sensitive down there, try it with your underwear on.

7. Place the ice cube between your breasts and run it back and forth so that your skin feels cool and wet, then guide your man’s penis between them for a hands-free massage.

8. Have him lightly run the ice cube along the soles and the perimeter of your feet. Believe it or not, the area of the brain that processes touch down there is nearby the zone that registers sensations to your genitals, speeding up your arousal.

9. Give your guy a sexy scalp rub with one hand and use the other to trail the ice along his hairline and temples, all the way down to the base of his neck.

10. Post-sex, slowly move the ice cube across your guy’s back for a frisky cooldown, then ask him to return the favor.

Bad girls are legendary — a guy who’s been with one practically passes out from bliss when he talks about his experience. You might be thinking, “Who, me? Be a bad girl?” But any woman who wants to can wake up her hibernating vixen...and have a damn good time doing it!

See, bed-devil status is about a fearless attitude, not how much sexual experience you have or whether you wear leather. “Guys dig when women are unbridled and uninhibited, push their own boundaries, break the rules, and ask for what they want,” says Barbara Keesling, PhD, author of The Good Girl’s Guide to Bad Girl Sex. So we boiled down the naughty qualities that make some women stand out, then came up with seven audacious ideas for putting them into play. These tips and tricks will forever crank up the heat in your sex life.

DARE: Be the Boss in Bed Tonight

A wickedly sexy woman knows how to deliciously exploit the power she has over a man. Tell your guy to lie down on the bed, then use handcuffs, scarves, or a necktie to tether his hands together so he can’t touch you. (If you're not game to use real restraints, you can simply hold his hands over his head.)

Next, "you want to torture him playfully with your teasing,” says sex expert Candida Royalle, author of How to Tell a Naked Man What to Do. “Slowly kiss your way down his torso, and just as you get to his pelvis, move back up to his ears and neck.”

As you tantalize him and he strains to touch you, ask him to tell you why he wants you so bad, explaining that you won’t let him free until he convinces you. Once he’s pleaded his case, release his hands, roll onto your back , and allow him to take over. After building up the erotic anticipation, it’ll be like setting a windup toy loose on your body...and hearing him describe how hot you are will turbocharge your experience too.

DARE: Slip Into a Naughty Costume

To infuse your sex sessions with more attitude, sometimes all it takes is looking the part of a true temptress. “One of the ways a woman can really show off her sexuality is by playing up different sides of her erotic personality,” explains Jamye Waxman, author of Getting Off.

If you’re feeling like a flirty, girlie tease, put on a white cotton undie set or pale pink lingerie and pull your hair into a ponytail, or don a schoolgirl-like plaid miniskirt with an oxford shirt tied above your navel. To become an X-rated seductress, wear something red or black in sheer fabric or lace, then add crimson lipstick and nails. “Outfits not only help you get in the moment, they also give him a visual turn-on and inspiration,” adds Waxman.

Just standing there in your flimsy finest may be enough, but a few teasing lines will definitely get the ball rolling. When playing the innocent card, say it’s your first time, and ask him what you should do. As a seductress, whisper all the different ways and places you want to touch him.

DARE: Learn to Talk Dirty

Moans and sighs (Oh! Oh!) are easy. It’s the dirty dialogue that really puts a triple-X stamp on your sex sessions. “Talking dirty heightens the whole experience, keeps you both present, and turns you on even more,” says Royalle. “Plus, men actually like being told what to do in bed because it helps them get it right.”

First tell him how freakin’ good he feels. (Tongue-tied? Try no-fail lines like “You feel so/You make me [adjective]”; “I love it when you [verb] my [body part].”) Then you’re set to show him the way to send you soaring, with something like, “Oooh, almost there. I need your [noun] on my [body part], just like this.”

DARE: Watch Yourselves Having Sex

Body confidence and carnal curiosity are key traits of a sex goddess, and both are on full display when you make a sex tape. “Seeing yourselves midact gives you a voyeuristic thrill, almost as though you’re peeping into your own bedroom. It feels taboo,” explains Royalle. “You also get to see how your partner is responding and how you look when you’re getting off.” If you’re worried about becoming the next Kim Kardashian, skip the tape and just hook the video camera directly up to a television in your bedroom — without recording — and watch yourselves while you’re going at it.

Since missionary doesn’t exactly make for good TV, get into racier positions where you’re facing the camera. Go for doggie-style so you can both see the action or girl-on-top so you can watch exactly how you move. And definitely get shots exchanging oral sex so you can see the orgasmic effect you have on each other.

DARE: Summon His Buried Bad Boy

Bad girls are known to capture a few prisoners in the sack, but a bold bedroom chick also enjoys enacting her own fantasies, shame-free. And one of women’s top fantasies is to be taken. “It’s a turn-on to feel like he wants you so bad, he just can’t help himself,” explains Keesling. “Plus, when he’s being aggressive, you have to fully give up the reins, which can help you be even more in the here and now.”

Instruct your guy to hide behind the door and “surprise” you by taking charge when you get home one night. He can either have his way with you right in the foyer or pull you into the bedroom. Or let him know that you’re in the mood but want him to conquer you, caveman-style, even if it means playfully wrestling you to the bed as you try to slip out of his grasp.

DARE: Give Him a Jolt

Breaking out of your touch-here-then-lick-there routine adds a lusty layer to the erotic experience. And fearless sexual playmates know that unexpectedly intense sexual maneuvers are even more exciting. “A forceful touch snaps your guy into the moment and heightens every sensation that follows,” says Royalle. “The spontaneity also keeps him anticipating each touch, magnifying his excitement.” Plus, the implied roughness invites him to tap in to his primal, wild sexual self.

Grip his butt hard while in missionary, scratch his chest and the sides of his torso while in girl-on-top, or yank his head toward you to give him a passionate, damn-straight kind of kiss. If those moves elicit an excited response, firmly spank his butt, lightly bite his shoulder, or tug his hair in the act, you devilish thing.

BEHOLD ! The Frosting Shot......

2009-09-07T19:06:00.003-04:00

So I'd heard rumblings about the availability of frosting shots, but hadn't really thought about it much. Turns out, it's true!
Select bakeries such a Babycakes NYC and Sprinkles do sell frosting shots.

Behold, the mysterious frosting shot.

Sprinkles has a secret menu with its 75-cent frosting shots !!!!!!

The blog Fast Food Maven has the scoop.

The shots come in mini-paper cups, and are pretty hefty — about 2-3 ounces. The frosting is, in fact, so thick that you can hold the shot upside without anything falling out— kinda like a Dairy Queen Blizzard. LOL

They even Have: a variety pack of frostings.
Now this is perfect for Frosting Lovers, but I MUCH prefer the cake....Im a frosting Scraper hahah.

Frosting menu: Flavors change daily, and are based on whatever cupcakes are being sold that day. For example, on Saturday the frostings are creamy vanilla, bittersweet chocolate, coconut cream cheese, fudgy milk chocolate cream cheese, cream cheese and strawberry.

Red Velvet cupcakes are sold everyday, so the cream cheese frosting can be ordered as a shot daily. The most popular frostings are cream cheese and dark chocolate frosting.

One tip: Don’t forget to ask for sprinkles on the frosting. If you don’t ask, you might not get any. For example, on the coconut frosting, I had them add coconut flakes on top so it replicated the look of the cupcake.

Read on for their frosting to cupcake comparison

I'm not sure if this cupcake shooter by Kickass Cupcakes counts but I think not, as it's described as a "beverage" and even super-creamy frosting can't really be called a beverage, right?

LOOOOVE IT !

XOXOX

I Heart CuppyCakes <3

INGREDIENTS

For one-bowl chocolate cupcakes | Makes about 36-40 mini cupcakes

1-1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
2 large eggs
3/4 cup buttermilk
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup warm water

For peanut butter cream cheese frosting*

1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened (I used Neufchatel cheese)
1-1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 tsp vanilla extract

Rice Krispies Treats recipe
strawberries, hulled
skewers

*I threw this frosting recipe together with the intention of adding butter and milk but I kinda liked it without. Go figure!

INSTRUCTIONS

To make cupcakes—
Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare cupcake pan with mini cupcake liners.

Using an electric mixer on medium speed, combine flour, cocoa, sugar, baking soda, baking power and salt. Reduce speed to low and add eggs, buttermilk, oil, vanilla extract and water.

Fill cupcake liners about 1/2-2/3 full. Bake for about 15-17 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cupcakes cool completely before frosting.

To make frosting—
In a stand mixer, fitted with a flat beater, cream the peanut butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Gradually add the powder sugar until well combined. Add vanilla extract.

Using a Wilton 1M star tip, pipe the pb frosting on each mini cupcake and set aside.

To assemble kabobs—
Cut the rice krispies treats into small squares. Alternate adding mini cupcakes, rice krispies treats and strawberries on a skewer.

ENJOY!

5 Fun Cocktail Party Themes

2009-09-07T18:26:00.003-04:00

Because surely you need another reason to drink.

All you need is a stocked bar and a little inspiration for a bash where the drinks are second to the scenery. We'll get you on your way with five surefire ideas for a fab shindig.

A Day at the Races
Why? The Kentucky Derby might only happen in May, but that doesn't mean you can't celebrate like the prize-winning horse owners all summer long.

Setup: Decorate for an outside picnic with red-and-white checkered tablecloths, give each table the name of a prized thoroughbred, and encourage women to wear fun hats. Put the TV or radio on a horse race and pass out faux betting sheets. The losers have to do the dishes!

Music: Crank up country tunes like Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, and Keith Urban.

Nibbles: Barbecue chicken fingers, tea sandwiches, and ramekins of mac and cheese

Specialty drinks: Mint juleps, of course! But if you're not a big bourbon fan, try mojitos (which are made with rum). You'll still get the mint effect.

Green Party
Why? Who isn’t going eco-friendly these days? It’s a great excuse to get your friends together and help the environment while you’re at it.

Setup: Turn your pad into a green scene. Serve food on biodegradable appetizer plates (BranchHome.com sells great sets) and light a bunch of soy candles. Ask guests to bring one thing from their home that they don’t use -- from clothing to DVDs -- and set up a “Recycle Table” in your living room where everyone gets to walk out of the party with a new gift!

Music: Go with artists who have green agendas, like Radiohead and Jack Johnson.

Nibbles: Organic fruit and crudite kabobs, specialties from your local farmer’s market

Specialty drinks: Serve eco-friendly beer. Brooklyn Brewery (BrooklynBrewery.com) and Belgium Brewery (NewBelgium.com) are both wind-powered, environmentally sustainable breweries.

Pink Slip Soiree
Why? We’re pretty much in a depression, so why not party like it’s 1929! Encourage laid-off pals to bring a “personal” business card so they can network with other guests. Whoever exchanges the most cards by the end of the night wins a bottle of booze.

Setup: In true ’20s style, turn your pad into a modern speakeasy. Have the women wear cocktail dresses. Hand out inexpensive pink boas, fake pearl necklaces, and paper fans. Men can don black suits with black or white ties. For a prohibition twist, fill your bathtub with ice and turn that into your bar.

Music: Play jazz icons like Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Ella Fitzgerald. If you have an old-school record player, use it!

Nibbles: Dole out “stimulus packages”: Chinese take-out boxes filled with colorful candy, warm salted nuts, or gourmet potato chips.

Specialty Drinks: Pink Slip Slammers made with vodka, pink grapefruit juice, and a splash of simple syrup, topped with a raspberry

Modern Luau
Why? Everyone loves a luau. And, at this one, your guests don't have to look at the gross pig on a stick!

Setup: Think clusters of pineapples on the tables, mini tiki torches secured in buckets of sand, grass hula skirts as table skirts, and shells scattered about. Will people be cruising indoors too? Throw in a DVD called Riding Giants for some cool surf vibes in the background.

Music: Make a mix of steel drum music by Steelasophical, reggae by Bob Marley, and mellow Hawaiian tunes by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole.

Nibbles: Island-inspired faves like coconut shrimp and mini squares of pineapple pizza

Specialty Drinks: Piña coladas, daiquiris (don't forget the umbrella toothpicks), and fruity cocktails with names like Wailin' Marley and Kingston Night

Rolodex Bash
Why? It’s time to get off Facebook for a few hours and actually “friend” people in person. The premise: Ask each guest to invite one of their favorite people. Because who doesn’t want a larger network?

Setup: Have a camera? Take pictures of everyone who walks through your door. Midway through the party, upload them to your TV -- it’s a fun way for guests to check each other out. Before people leave, ask them to jot down their email address in a guest book. Each time you throw the party, it’ll get bigger and bigger because your new friends will be inviting their friends, and so on.

Music: It’s all about the community effort. When you send out your Evite, ask guests to submit their favorite song requests and download it for a fabulous mix.

Nibbles: Anything in bulk, from frozen taquitos to big bowls of chips and salsa. You have double the crowd you’re used to!

Specialty Drinks: Shots, of course…what could be friendlier?

YAy Fun !
Sincerely
XOXO

Stock the Bar !

2009-09-07T18:08:00.001-04:00

A well-stocked bar is a valuable tool for entertaining guests, decorating the house, or dealing with visiting in-laws. So here's everything you need to create the ideal party tool/room accent/blessed sanctuary.

Liquor

The Basics
Liquor: You won't go wrong with 750 ml bottles of moderately priced brands (no more than about $20, sometimes much cheaper) that have name recognition -- Jose Cuervo, Jack Daniel's, Absolut, etc.

[ ] Gin
[ ] Vodka
[ ] Rum
[ ] Bourbon
[ ] Scotch
[ ] Tequila
[ ] Sweet vermouth
[ ] Dry vermouth
[ ] Cointreau

Wine: Have fun sampling several different kinds under $10 -- not all in one night -- then pick your two favorites and serve them as your house wines.
[ ] White wine
[ ] Red wine

Advanced Touch
Sippin' Whiskey: This spirit has always been a hit with professional drinkers, but after years of being eclipsed by vodka, it's coming back into vogue. Single-malt scotches and small-batch bourbons (both are types of whiskey) are particularly desirable.

[ ] Single-malt scotch (e.g., The Glenlivet 12 Year Old)
[ ] Irish whiskey (e.g., Black Bush)
[ ] Bourbon (e.g., Wild Turkey Rare Breed)

Mixers & Garnishes

The Basics
Juice: See? Drinking is healthy.
[ ] Cranberry
[ ] Orange
[ ] Tomato

Soda: Doubles as tasty drink accent and refreshment for designated drivers.
[ ] Cola
[ ] Lemon-lime
[ ] Ginger ale
[ ] Tonic
[ ] Seltzer

Maraschino Cherries: Get 'em with stems, since they're easier to pluck out of a glass. Plus, tying knots in them with your tongue is still one of the all-time great bar tricks.

[ ] Maraschino cherries

Olives: No martini is complete without them (unless it's a Gibson, in which case you'll need a pearl onion).

[ ] Green pitted olives

Lemons and Limes: Slice them up beforehand to save time when company arrives.

[ ] Lemons
[ ] Limes

Advanced Touch
Exotic additions: Feeling tropical? Feeling crazy? Then you probably have malaria. Still, you can't ignore your guests, who may be in the mood for a fruity island treat or an oddball drink that requires an unusual ingredient. Luckily, the ones here can be found in any supermarket or liquor store. Some ingredients should be fresh -- impress guests by pulling mint straight off a plant -- while others can be bought well in advance.

[ ] Cream
[ ] Coconut milk
[ ] Grenadine
[ ] Tabasco and Worcestershire sauce
[ ] Angostura bitters
[ ] Coarse salt and granulated sugar
[ ] Pineapple juice
[ ] Mint
[ ] Sour mix

Accessories

The Basics
Recipe Book: The Craft of the Cocktail by master mixologist Dale DeGroff provides 500 illustrated recipes as well as cocktail lore that, unlike a great martini, is never dry.

[ ] The Craft of the Cocktail

Ice Bucket and Tongs: A bucket with a lid and a liner keeps ice colder longer, and tongs keep grubby mitts where they belong.

[ ] Ice bucket
[ ] Tongs

Cocktail Shaker: Buy a Boston shaker -- a glass tumbler paired with a metal tumbler -- along with a Hawthorne strainer (the one with the coiled edge) instead of the more popular all-metal shaker. The setup is more versatile, gets colder faster, and makes you instantly look like a pro.

[ ] Boston cocktail shaker
[ ] Hawthorne strainer

Glasses: Remember, people who drink tend to drop things, so there's no need to spend a lot of money.

[ ] Highball
[ ] Lowball
[ ] Martini
[ ] White wine
[ ] Shot

Napkins: You don't want to find rings on your coffee table or olive pits in your plants.

[ ] Cocktail napkins

Advanced Touch
Bar Tools: Find a good-looking set that contains everything you need. Then display it for people to look at in slack-jawed awe.

[ ] Jiggers
[ ] Multipurpose opener
[ ] Corkscrew
[ ] Bar spoons
[ ] Wood muddler (for crushing herbs, sugar, etc. -- mojito, anyone?)

A Promise.....Kept.

2009-09-07T17:18:00.004-04:00

As I promised, a few beautiful "Wow" images for you to indulge in :)
If you're not impressed, Pretend :)

Amazing photograph to follow

2009-09-07T16:54:00.005-04:00

If you can't appreciate an AMAZING photograph....you can't be my friend!
If you haven't noticed or remembered from before, I am absolutely IN LOVE with photos....all photos, especially those ones that make you go, "Wow" or "Awe" or the ones that make you say absolutely NOTHING at all :)
I Love those !
And I really wish I could show you my "Wow" photo of this weekend, but of course, as with everything in life there is a disappointment ! Actually this is more just retarded.
So we went White water rafting this weekend.....which you can read about in my next post, after I upload a few pictorals :)
Anyway= A-MA-ZING!!!!!
I mean I had sooooo much fun, looked like a drowned sewer rat at the end of the trip but amazing !!!!!
Anyway back to the retarded photo....okay since cameras weren't allowed or more likely just it wouldn't be an intelligent decision to take one on a Rafting trip, I mean they are raging river rapids in which one may ACTUALLY drown. I figured the camera idea not a smart one. hehe
Soooooo...you can purchase photos of your raft from the company....which are generally what $20.00 for a 4x6, oh and 35.00 if you want the absurdly thin piece of shitty cardboard to go around it !
But we looked over the photos when we left and found one....in need of a rememberal (not actual word) from the day....we were shocked.....Only $11.00 for a photo !!!
Which still seems insane and even more so that we were excited about the $11.00 photo, but we were ! :)

Here comes the crazy part...we didn't even get it !
just a piece of paper saying we bought a CD....
We (at which point I mean Syd, she paid)
paid $11.00 for a CD with ONE picture on it.....hmmmmm....
So not only do we (syd) not receive a shitty piece of absurd cardboard that has no real purpose other than to detract dust, jk doesn't do that either, they have gigantic holes in them.....Not only did we not get the cardboard, we didnt even get paper.
We have to print the pictures too.....

Okay, sorry now to the crazy part.... Saturday was September 5th....
the little paper that we paid $11.00 for. In tiny fine print (WARNING FINE PRINT)
in the tiny fine print, it states...your CD will be shipped to you........
Oh well Cool. At least we don't have to drive 1 1/2 to get a CD.
.......your CD will be shipped to you in a month (from today) meaning our CD was going to arrive until on or after October 5th !!!!
Excuse me, but what is gods name takes so long??
Its an image on a disk that we could have walked away with....
Yet it takes 30 days to get to us..... not 7-10 business days, but 20-30 not including weekends and holidays haha....who knows...we'll have it for Halloween !
I'm assuming we may have gotten ripped off, but maybe not.

Ohhh we said screw it, laughed, it was free, LAUGHED,
we got wettttt, the tour guide was in a weird, yet cute, in his own way HOTT !
and had a fucking blast !

XOXO
WHite Water Rafter Adverturer Meghan

(i will now find inspirational/amazing photographs to make up for my terribly lame story)

No Regrets :)

2009-09-07T16:02:00.004-04:00

It's Never a mistake if it means that much !
I live my life by this word....and by that I mean believe in everything.
It's amazing to put your faith in anything. Somehting you believe in strongly deserves your faith. Believe In Love, Yourself, Success, and Friendship :)

GO figure......

OMG- OTH LOVERS !!!!

2009-09-03T18:29:00.001-04:00

Holy Jesus !!!!!
Best Thing I have everrrrrr Seen !!!!

Whats Up with that !!!!???

2009-09-03T18:14:00.002-04:00

Just came across this......

We're still more than one week away from the premiere of One Tree Hill season 7,
but the CW has released the first four minutes of the new year for fans to enjoy now.

Obviously there are some big changes and challenges ahead for One Tree Hill. They've lost Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton, but rounding out the cast by adding some new characters, including Nathan's agent Clay and Haley's sister Quinn.

Below you can check out four whole minutes of One Tree Hill's seventh season to see Haley cutting a new record, Nathan's practicing, Brooke and Julian making out on the beach, and find out exactly how much time has passed since the end of season 6 and what's up with Dan, who takes over the opening narration usually reserved for Lucas in the past.

I'm pretty sure I could watch Paul Johansson all day long, and I'm eager to find out how he's still alive and kicking. Will he become the man he tried to change into, or will he go back to his old evil ways with a new lease on life?

Also, I smell something fishy with Clay. There's no reason to have that random phone call from his mother unless he has some sort of family connection to someone we've seen before on this show. My guess? He's Nanny Carrie's brother and becomes Nathan's agent as a secret plot to exact revenge. Probably not, but you have to admit, that would be really cool.

One Tree Hill season 7 premieres Monday, September 14 at 8pm on the CW.

OTH without LUCAS AND PEYTON WTF IS THAT !!!!!
ARE WE KIDDING PPL !!!!????
I demand an explanation....
Sincerely,
ONE SERIOUSLY MIFFED CW WATCHER

Paula's Best Dishes :)---Morning Munchies

2009-08-31T18:38:00.003-04:00

One of my absolute FAV shows :) Paula is just the bees knees !!!

Bobby Deen is stopping by for breakfast. He's cooking up the perfect Egg White Omelette with Spinach and Tomato and his secret recipe for the best Peaches and Cream Muffins in the South. Paula joins in with her Smashed Potato Cakes and Peppered Bacon... And a Spiced Iced Tea. So pick your favorite recipe, cause the morning munchies are alive and well in Savannah, Ga.

Mmmmm, here's two of my fav's from this episode.....

Hot Spiced Tea

4 servings
Ingredients

* 4 cups water
* 4 tea bags
* 2 sticks cinnamon
* 10 whole cloves
* 4 cups pomegranate juice
* 4 cups apple cider
* Garnish: cinnamon sticks and clove-studded lemon slices, optional

Directions

In a large saucepan add the water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat and add the tea bags, cinnamon, and cloves. Let steep, covered, for 20 minutes. Strain and return the tea to the pan, discarding the solids. Stir in the pomegranate juice and apple cider. Cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and keep warm until ready to serve. When ready to serve pour into cups or mugs and garnish with cinnamon sticks and lemon slices, if desired.

Peaches and Cream Muffins
12 muffins

Ingredients

* Nonstick cooking spray
* 2 cups self-rising flour
* 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
* 1 cup sour cream
* 1/4 cup sugar
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 (15-ounce) can sliced peaches, drained and chopped into 1/4-inch pieces

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the cups of a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray and set aside.

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, butter, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla. Gently fold in the peaches.

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn out onto a serving platter and serve immediately or transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, before storing.

What a great Sweet and Spicy start to a day :)

Mmmmm....Shrimp

2009-08-31T18:09:00.001-04:00

Shrimp Salad-Stuffed Tomatoes

Hollowed-out tomatoes were the secret to elegant lunches in the '50s - and they deserve a comeback today. Look for bright red, aromatic tomatoes without any mushy spots or discolorations. You can also stuff these tomatoes with Bacony Barley Salad with Marinated Shrimp or Curried Tofu Salad.

Ingredients

1 pound peeled cooked shrimp (21-25 per pound; thawed if frozen), tails removed, chopped
1 stalk celery, finely diced
1/4 cup minced fresh basil
10 Kalamata olives, pitted and finely chopped
1 medium shallot, minced
2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
Pinch of freshly ground pepper
4 large ripe tomatoes, cored

Directions

Combine shrimp, celery, basil, olives, shallot, mayonnaise, vinegar and pepper in a medium bowl. Stir to combine.

Carefully hollow out the inside of each tomato using a melon baller or small spoon; reserve the scooped tomato for another use (see Tip). To serve, fill each tomato with a generous 1/2 cup of the shrimp salad.

Save the scooped-out tomato insides to use in fresh tomato soup or pasta sauce. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Tomorrow be prepared because I'm researching my Kabobs ! :)

Wild in the Wild: Is it okay to romp in a field?
"In 25 years of practice, I haven't seen a patient with any sex-in-the-grass-related complaints," says gynecologist Suzanne Merrill-Nach, M.D. Nature enthusiasts face a slight (but avoidable) risk of poison ivy or oak, allergic reactions to other plants or insects entering places they shouldn't. "And if you're considering sex on the beach, watch out for friction burns from the sand," says Suzanne Merrill-Nach, M.D. Another consideration: "Almost every state has laws against indecent exposure," says Sandor Gardos, Ph.D., founder of mypleasure.com, "though it really depends on how flagrant it is, and it's fairly easy to talk your way out of arrest or a summons. Use your judgment." So, pack a blanket, be discreet and go enjoy the great outdoors!

Frankly, the missionary position is the position least likely to bring a woman to climax.
But there is a subtle adjustment you can make that can increase your chances of having an orgasm: the coital alignment technique, or CAT. Have your partner move his entire body up about two inches. Your partner's pubic bone will rest on top of yours so that the base of his penis presses on your clitoris. This position provides continuous stimulation of your clitoris during intercourse, increasing your chances of having an orgasm.

Anniversary Present <3

2009-08-29T13:49:00.005-04:00

So I was planning a huge party for my Parents Silver Anniversary....25th.
And I was completely prepared with all the plans until I found out that the sorry to say Loser of the family was moving home to live with my grandma....hence it was completely impossible to not invite her to the party. Now when I say Loser, I mean it in every sense of the word, anything that you can do to completely F*** up your life before the age of 17 has been done by this girl !
Safe to say....shes not liked much by my completely overprotective judgemental, too Perfect for words Mother...there is no way in hell my mom would let this girl step foot in my house, her eyes glaze over when someone mentions her name.....

Anyway so with words that she was coming back to NY, I panicked. Because how do I avoid inviting a family member that is living with my grandma and shes entirely too stupid to understand that no one likes her. (harsh) Oh well. Simply putting just my grandparents name on the invite they would drag her anyway.........by the way Julie**** (name changed for the protection of my safety, lol.) is now 22 with one kid that she treats like shit and pregnant with another......Cool. Sooooo glad that these poor children are doomed for the rest of their lives. She doesnt want them, yet continues to get knocked up ! Wow !
News Flash: Keep your legs Shut or Maybe get some help.
Now Julie*** is not completely stable, I mean she has mental issues but does anyone want to get her help, Of course not !

Anywhoooooo.....

OMG. So back to my Parents.
I cancelled the party, even the idea of a party and made them a super cute basket instead :D
My parents LOVE new foods I mean like Loooove them. and we have the most killer vegetable garden I have ever seen !
Soooo I went to the ever popular Harry and David to hunt down some dips and spreads for bagettes and cooking
:D

So here's what I got:
Fresh bagettes
Fresh Veggies and Spices
Red Pepper and Cheese Dip
Charred Pineapple Dip (excellent mixed with cream cheese)
Pepper and Onion relish with Zinfandel
Ancho Chili with pepper dip (great baked on pork chops)
And a few other deliscious grilling sauces and dips :)

I ended up getting a shit ton of stuff filling a super cute basket that can later be used to bring in veggies from the garden :D
I also filled the basket with a Homemade simple salsa recipe and allll the ingredients freah veggies and spices to complete the recipes :)

Cute idea Huh ??? I totally thought so !
Well my mom like fell over she was so excited ! Which made it all so much better.
And of course Prince Charming said, You never fail to amaze me ! :)

Take a look at the Amazing Fresh and Simple Salsa.....absolutely delish on chips and grilled onto chicken, chops even steaks, we also added some into a baked dish that we made :)

Fabulous !!!!

XOXO Meghan

The City, The Hills ???

2009-08-25T15:40:00.002-04:00

Expect big changes when new episodes of The Hills and The City start up again on Sept. 29, moving from Monday nights to Tuesdays. The Hills will air at 10 p.m. (EST) followed by The City at 10:30 p.m. (EST).

Liz Gateley, senior vice president of series development for MTV and executive producer of both shows, tells PEOPLE that the new day is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the switch-ups.

Most notably, Kristin Cavallari has replaced Lauren Conrad on The Hills. “Kristin has brought new life to the show,” Gateley says. “She is the same Kristin we know and love — not afraid to mix things up. Her presence has really changed every dynamic within the cast, especially with Audrina [Patridge] and Justin Bobby.”

As for newlyweds Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, Gateley says they may be taking another big step in their relationship. “Heidi and Spencer are entering some interesting new territory of considering parenthood,” she says.

Over on the East Coast, Whitney Port may not be considering motherhood, but she will be dealing with a new boss.

“A lot has changed in The City,” Gateley says. “We shifted the focus of the show significantly from a relationship drama to a workplace drama. Olivia has a new job and an amazing new boss at Elle magazine. Whitney is focused a lot more on her work now that she’s single, and Kelly Cutrone — who I love — takes on a much bigger role in the show.”

But the focus on fashion remains the same. “The show feels much more like a reality Devil Wears Prada,” Gateley says. “Our whole shooting style changed. You’ll see much more action and less people sitting and talking, which was an intentional choice we made in making over the show. There are fireworks on the jobs constantly — it’s very exciting and fun to watch what it’s like to work in the world of New York fashion.”

Tell us: Are you more excited for the return of The Hills or The City?

This Movie= FABULOUS !!!!
Seen??? Thoughts???

Thats ME......

2009-07-30T21:47:00.002-04:00

Yay !
I am officially 20 !!!!
I can't explain the excitement and fear that I have experienced.
I know everyone keeps telling me that's so young.
I understand that but its the leaving my childhood part that's scary.
20 is just a number and next year it will be 21 and then soon 40, and so on...
I know someday I will be wishing it was 20. But aside from having an absolute PERFECT PARTY and a perfect week. I was not happy to be turning 20. Wow on average that means I have lived 1/5 of my life ! AHHHHHH !!!!
Now That's scary !
But then I think to myself holy cow, I have done and accomplished SO MUCH in the past ten years ! I mean I was ten ! Shit !
Thats crazy ! Ten years !
Seems so short, but looking back it was absolutely wonderful.
And the lessons and experiences I have lead could not have been any better :)

XOXO
Looking forward
<3

Almost Forgot !

I have BRide Wars !
Love it ! Watch it ! Adore it !

LA Candy

2009-07-30T21:30:00.007-04:00

If Laguna and The Hills weren't enough....
Lauren is at it again---her new book LA Candy....

Lauren's New Book is already a Best Seller after a few short months !!!!!

Lauren- LC- known for living her life on camera has been famous since the day Laguna Beach aired on MTV. Her rivals with Kristen Cavallari and romances with Stephen Colletti and Brody Jenner have led to TV shows and countless amounts of commercial deals and brand representing even other TV roles and movies for many of the cast members, including Lauren. She is the first to publish a book.
LA. Candy.
We have all fallen in love with the oung woman over the years, her style and smile have taken her to the stars and back !

But where will the book lead......

Lisa Schwarzbaum

Lisa Schwarzbaum is a film critic for EW

California girl Lauren Conrad is famous for living her life on camera — first on MTV's Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and then on The Hills. She worked as a magazine intern at Teen Vogue and in fashion marketing in Los Angeles. She designed a line of clothing with an emphasis on flirty, let's-go- drinking dresses. Her face is on magazine covers, her name in boldfaced type. She's admired by fans for her sweet, stunned affect even when boyfriends flame out and a best girlfriend moves on. She is 23 years old, and celebrated for being a celebrity.

Now, though, what Conrad really wants to do is write: L.A. Candy, her first novel, is also the first fruit of a three-book deal. In it, 19-year-old California girl ''Jane Roberts'' becomes famous for living her life on a reality TV show called...L.A. Candy. She works as an intern in L.A. She has boy troubles, a falling-out with a girlfriend, and a sweet, stunned affect. So far, ''Jane'' hasn't gotten a three-book deal. But then, there are still two books to go.

Is there nothing LC can't do? Well, uh, yes. Write a ''novel.'' Authors need to be judged as writers, not as multitasking buzz generators — even if the person in question is a blithe It Girl known for remarks like ''Shoes make me happy'' and ''I don't feel girly without long hair.'' And even if her book tests well with her target readers. Publishers these days are laying off staff and cutting the number of titles on their lists; the book business is suffering along with everyone else, and there's little room to gamble on an untried writer, however exciting that new voice. Yet with one eye on marketing opportunities and the other on TV ratings, these same publishers have given the okay to a larky novice who'd be the first to admit that she just thought authoring might be, you know, cool.

In this, of course, Conrad joins an elite group of dilettantes and debutants who have already heeded the advice of English teachers through the ages and written about what they know, including Fabio (bodice rippers), Naomi Campbell (thinly disguised tales of a supermodel), Pamela Anderson (thinly disguised tales of a bazoomy sex kitten), and Nicole Richie (thinly disguised tales of a thin socialite). But books aren't handbags or cosmetic lines, products devised to extend a famous person's brand. Any celebrity can choose between zipper A and magnetic snap B to ''design'' a reasonably trendy satchel. Very few are as talented as Carrie Fisher, Steve Martin, or Hugh Laurie — highly literate polymaths who just happen to have found fame as performers first and as authors later. Those who enjoy Kirk Douglas, Jimmy Buffett, or Mick Foley might be drawn to the literary endeavors that bear their names. Still, most of us would be better served by renting Spartacus, listening to ''Margaritaville,'' or watching Foley's old WWF videos starring Mankind vs. The Undertaker.

As for Lauren Conrad's novel, it's a dismal portent of the future of pop culture, disguised as escapist fiction aimed at young-adult LC fans who might like a bookshaped object as a keepsake now that Conrad has left her popular show. The author (or ''authors,'' allowing for the possibility of anonymous assistance) follows that write-what-you-know credo faithfully. And perhaps that's why the book's most deeply felt scene involves Jane, a member of her tech crew, and a cordless microphone. ''Well,'' the crew member tells young Jane as she prepares for her first night of living on camera, ''I'm gonna have you tape this microphone to the inside of the front of your bra and run the wire around your side, then I'll clip the mike pack on the back of your bra.''

Chris Speaks about Jillians decision and what went down during their conversation that final day :)

Good Read !

The Proposal......

2009-07-28T16:57:00.004-04:00

The fast approaching Season Finale of The Bachelorette was a big event in my house !
We had cake and drinks and lots of assumptions of the finales outcome....

I'm sorry to say the season ended with tears-although it generally does.
This Season however they were extremely sad tears. Followed by unexpected happy tears.
I have to say I fell in love with Kiptyn- head over heels.
And Ed, well I felt he was a bit Nerdish :(

But after seeing their chemistry together when she could truly express her hidden feelings- their happiness lt up the screen.
Jillian absolutely beemed when she accepted Ed's proposal of marriage with the 60,000 $$$$ Neil Lane Diamond ! Holy mackrel !

It was not my choice of rings- but gorgeous in it's own.

Jillian looked absolutely stunning in her off white flowing gown.
(of which I wish I owned the clone hehe)

In the end I guess Jillian is happy, and that is after all the point.
But I felt for Kiptyn, really did.
And Reid. Damn it. Broken heart twice !
That man was undoubtably in love.

And his return to the Season Finale was nothing short of passionate !
I loved him :(

Four Questions for Jill however,

1. Ed left you once for his career- don't you think that might come back into effect??

2. A Malfunction in the bedroom would be a major Red Flag to most women, and you seemed awfully concerned that, that Passion and Fire wasn't there at first, won't that be a problem ????

3. Do you really like those flipping Green shorts !!!!???

4. Do you use Opi (Bubble Bath) nail polish---I love it !????

All in all- I loved this season, and the outcome I guess was spectacular, they seem in-imaginably crazy in love ! <3

ConGRATS !

The second proposal of the season was a bit more comedic, The Proposal starring Ryan Reynolds and the lovely Sandra Bullock !
Nothing short of Amazing.
Absolutely funny to the T.
Excellent story and heart warming at the same time :)

Great night out on the town....
5 stars !!!

So, I'm a swim suit whore and anyone that knows me could tell you that, I think I have ummmm 40+ and I bought 3 this week..... LOVE THEM !

the three pictured here will be my fav's for this summer !
The downside, that was about $200.00 haha and about a week's paycheck.
Goodie :)

I LOVE THE WHITE TOP WITH THE TEAL HEART !!!!
Gorgeous, I fell in love with it, and generally I can control myself when the price is nearly $100.00, but the cuteness took over and my impulsiveness.
I guess I need to work on that. haha.
Price Charming just laughs when I show him my new suits, I think he started a count for the summer, I'll have 7-8 more by the time the summer is over.
I know, it's a disease.

But really I got this one for only $20.00 !!!!!!
and thats incredible and I swear it's the cutest thing EVER !!!!!
Victoria certainly doesn't have any secrets from me, I own more than half of her store
:)

Packing for Vacation, can't wait- lots of decisions for outfits

Prince Charming and seeing him today :)

Fireproof, it's a fantastic movie. Bad acting, but a great story. You should watch it.
It made me cry, but now a days everything does. Haha.
There was a great song at the end, kind of Pop, Kind of Christian, I loved it :)

Wanting to take a trip to Vermont. I want to wander the Stowe and the small shops :)And a New Vera Bag ! I absolutely LOVE the new (well newer) Bali Gold pattern.
It's absolutely darling. I can't decide whether I want the weekender or the small duffel?????

Thoughts ?????

Oh and by the way, have any of you heard of 'M' Cafe in LA. Well it's fabulous, MadeByGirl inspired me to write about this super cute, trendy cafe. I was there a few years ago and loved! it ! I stumbled on her post about it last night and it reminded me how great this little place was.........

Currently Reading...........

In light of my new Twilight Obsession.

I have started reading the 2nd book in the saga.

New Moon.

I started last night during my falling asleep period.

I managed to get through the first chapter, but couldn't keep my eyes open.

It ended on a total cliff hanger and I hate that !!!!!

It's absolutely captivating.

Edward is still a stud- or at least from what I can invision while reading.

He's still undyingly devoted to Bella <3

Which is incredible !!!!!

I absolutely love them.

Her relationship makes me want a Vampire BF !

Prince Charming said, and I quote "I can't compete with his sexy vampire ass"

I'm totally in love with Edward !

I can't wait to read again tonight. Hopefully more than a chapter.

Tootles all.....

Frozen Chocolate Cookie Cake

Recipe adapted from Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade Desserts.

Ingredients

Ganache and Filling:

1/2 gallon cookies and cream ice cream, softened
1 cup heavy cream
1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate morsels

Cake:

Butter, for pans
Flour, for pans
1 (18.25-ounce) box devil's food cake mix
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

Directions

Line 1 (9-inch) cake pan with plastic wrap, with 3 inches overhanging. Spread softened ice cream into lined pan in a smooth, even layer. Freeze for 3 hours, or until frozen solid.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Butter and flour 2 (10-inch) round cake pans and set aside. In a stand mixer or with a hand mixer, beat cake mix, water, oil and eggs in a large mixing bowl on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until well blended. Using a spatula, divide batter between the 2 prepared cake pans. Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool in pans on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of each pan to loosen cakes and remove from pans.

While cakes are cooling, heat heavy cream in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat until bubbling around the edges. Remove pan from heat, add chocolate morsels, and stir with a whisk until smooth. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, until cool and slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Spread ganache on top of and around sides of both cake layers, keeping layers separate and not fitting together yet. Refrigerate entire cake for 1 hour, or until ganache is set.

Place 1 cake layer, ganache side up, on a serving platter. Remove ice cream from pan, peel off plastic wrap, and place on top of cake layer. Place second cake layer on top of ice cream, ganache side up. Freeze until ready to serve, but let stand at room temperature 5 minutes before seving.

Late night craving.......

the above song is called Satisfy.......listen to Forgive you, We sing (our fav !!!) and Loving Ghosts :)
After their performance Kristen was giving out free sampler Cd's and her autograph :)
Here she is...........

Kristen May of Vedera---- seriously listen to them :)

After Vedera.......we were given the pleasure to see Ace Enders and a Million Different People and Shiny Toy Guns....
Not a fan of Shiny Toy Guns--but Ace Enders was pretty good......
Bittersweet Symphony and Reaction!!!!! Excellent songs :)
Then at promptly 9:52-odd huh.
Bethoven and Bach stopped blaring and AAR appeared on stage to bright Neon flames and red white and blue strobe lights !!!!!
AMAZING !!!!!!
And again, Tyson Ritter !!!!!! So Sexy.......

There he is !!!!!!! Tyson !!!!!!!!
WOOOOOHOOOOO !
Dirty Little Secret !

I can't forget, Kristen May joined Tyson on stage to sing a
NEVER PREFORMED song......
Together they sang AAR's
Another Heart Calls
which by the way......was 10x better than the version above.
The version with Kristen doesn't exist YET !
But her voice with Tyson's is WAY better.
So I'm hoping that somewhere someday I can find the version of Another Heart Calls with Tyson and Kristen :)
It's still a great song....

The girls and I being crazy----Rockin/CHeezin out to the beats :D
WOOT WOOT !!!!

At about 11:15 we hit the road back to school- wishing instead we were crashing a party in hopes of seeing my beautiful Tyson :)
Wouldn't that be great !

..........about 2 1/2 hours later we arrived back.
Super tired and WAY EXCITED about our day !

All in All we had a fantastic day- full of memories and lots of pictures ! :)
AAR !

The Battle between the cutest celebrity babies.....
Suri Cruise and Violet Affleck.
Both with gorgeous mothers and decent looking semi sain fathers.
These little angels are strutting in the limelight.
But like every little tod. they are just so competitive to look their best.
So who's cuter????

Suri???

or Violet???

My personal choice would be Suri- I just think she's the gosh darn cutest thing ever ! :)

Thoughts ???

Never..... say Never.

2009-04-15T22:42:00.007-04:00

Well so Sydmiester has been trying to get me to watch Twilight for weeks now, and the whole damsal and vampire shit just wasn't intriguing me at all.
I mean EVERYONE has been raving over this and I'm not one to be jumping on a lot of bandwagons....hahaha who am I kidding- I LOVE BANDWAGONS !
Hehe.
Anyway so for weeks now I have not wanted to watch this movie, like literally NO INTEREST.
I thought Edward was geeky and strange.
SO last night sitting in the ever popular A and D, where we tend to spend most our nights lately.
We were wasting time, time of which I could have been enjoying my sleep.
I was watching my new addiction, vh1 Tough Love.
I love that show.
Anyway so I was getting bored and blogging of course about my new aformentioned obsession.
When Syd said that we should watch Twilight.
No.
No thanks.
Well then we should watch a really like deep love passionate movie, like really, she said.
Now, the movie-totally.
The love, O-M-G yew.
But now Twilight. No way.
After about 10 minutes of small talk argument.....
Syd just started it on YouTube.

Much to my dismay, I began watching it.
Oh no ! I was actually watching it, I was being sucked into the vortex of Teeny Bopper World.
I was watching Twilight.
Mind you each second I even peered away from the screen, Syd snapped at me.
Meghan !
HAhaha- she's crazy.

Well Whew....Actually we should take a break now, I'm tired.
Just kidding.
Anyway, background.
It is now 12:27 adn we had just begun watching this movie.
Again, I could have been sleeping !
Mind you I needed sleep because the following day, or actually the current day because of the time was Dolphy Day.
Which is a day of complete mischief, an entire college campus closes,
I mean SHUTS DOWN TOTALLY.
To drink.
Not juicy pink lemonade.
Yes Beer and Vodka Mixes.
Haha and because Prince Charming attends this lovely academic institution of higher learning and because last year I couldn't attend.
I was going damn it !
Bet Your Cute Little Tooshie !
I would be there.

Well so again it was 12:27.
And yes we were just beginning Twilight.

Wow.
Can I just say.
Wow.

Never say Never.
It was within the first 12 minutes and complete supervision of Sydmiester that I was completely
hooked. Not just enticed. I mean hooked.
I had fallen in love with Edward Cullen and his sexy stare and bold jaw structure.
Ahhhhh.
He's sexy as hell !
Don't we agree???
I mean WOW.
I think the fact that he's a Vampire just turned me on more.
Not a lie !
Wow.

So the movie continued and I really don't want to give away any key plot lines or cute parts to anyone that has not seen it......
So at this point I would like to suggest you go Youtube the movie, (click on the link above) Parts 1-12 can be found ( 6 and 7 are a bit harder to find)
But the whole movie is there.
Or go rent it.

If you have not seen the movie and wish to
STOP READING !
Because below is where I vent and express my eternal love for Edward !
So STOP !
Spoilers Below !

Emmmmm so sexy.........
Edward Cullen is so sexy......

Ok... so here we go.....
Sydmiester and Al at this point are talking/laughing/giggling through the whole thing dang it !
Mentioning every 4 minutes that I can't miss the next part, it's the best part.
Or just let out a tiny shriek that the following sceen is the best.
So if youc an't tell the whole movie is just dolphin back flippin phenomanal BATMAN !
(I say that alot when I get excited)
Much like Holy Cow !
But BATMAN !
Anyway.....ahhhh my baby hamster batman died this summer, i loved her. RIP Batman :(
And my fishie Sushi :(
R.I.P

Ok so Edward.......he's sexy.
Did I mention that :)

Ok so the girls were just distracting me major but I was completely hooked.
I couldn't sit still long enough to contain my happiness.
So stinkin cute :)

Ahhhhh to be Bella........
(Dreaming)

(Still Dreaming)
......
...

...
..
.

Emmmmmm.

So this ^^^^^ is one of my fav parts.
Go to 8:48
When Bella needs to be taken away so shes not found by James....the bad vampire.
Edwards sister* Alice takes her with her because james knows that Edward will not leave Bella.
They had to throw him off.....
"Nothings gonna happen...theres 7 of us and 2 of them....when everythings done I'm gonna come back and get you..... Bella your my life now...(ah and then he grabs her face)
and wow (popular trend here) ....wow.
I feel his pain--the look in his eyes....you can feel his pain.
(I love his passion for her)
I love the way he looks at her.
I love that she is absolutely intoxicating to him !
Ahhhhh.

Ahhhhhh I tree ! I love the tree part too.
So gorgeous. Ah so sexy.........

I love that shortly after Bella and Edward split up to throw James off track he calls her to tell her they lost him and to be careful.
When he says he'd do anything to protect her, have her safe again.
My heart melts.
Like literally.
I mean really, it makes him so much sexier that he's so passionate.

Emmmmm and this.....

Incredible.
Go to 3:28

Bella's Lullaby :) I love it.
"I like watching you sleep....its kinda fascinating to me"
Ahhhhhhhh so sexy- his voice is sooooo sexy.

And their kiss ! :)
(4:05)
Ahhhhhh.

I love that he has the strength to pull himself away.
I love that he loves her that much.
The fact that he can't lose control with her is so special. He watches her sleep.
So special.
And that's why he's sexy.
Strength.
Passion.

And finally.....
Go to 8:13

"I'll make it go away Bella"
Passion.

Here:
An amazing metaphor.
The fact that he needs to suck the venom so she remains a human
yet to him, shes the most intoxicating, irresitable thing he's ever experienced.
Is so powerful.
He has to, to save her life. But because its the best thing he's ever had
he's afraid he won't have the strength to stop.
It's so wonderful he doesn't have the strength to stop.
Bella is hospitalized
Refuses to leave the love of her life.
Stays with him.
And they Dance.
The begin their life together. Human and Vampire.

Incredible.

And now I'm infatuated. One of the best movies I have ever seen.
Clearly.
I'm still amazed and absoultey heels over head for Edward Cullen.
Much like every other female ranging from 10- 65 in the world.
But I can share.
And I can't wait to start reading the second book.
All thanks to Sydmiester. Love you Babygirl !

Soooooo Sexy.......

Never.....say never.
You'll miss out.

Xoxoxo

Tough Love...
Vh1.
I Love It.

I Love to Color.....

2009-04-14T17:44:00.001-04:00

Don't believe in airbrushing....

2009-04-14T17:19:00.003-04:00

You Better Start !

If these aren't some wacked transformations then I need to keep looking.

And for everyone out there that thinks Jessica Alba and Faith Hill are Flawless, Breathe..... and think again.

(Catch my joke .....breathe, her album haha.)

Anyway.

Here's Faith on the Cover of Redbook, looks beautiful.

Faith is in her mid-forties constantly in the limelight, has a hot ass husband and three daughters, but don't worry those silly things don't age her at all, cause she's famous. She's perfect.

HA !

Now what do you think........

They altered her.....

No under the eye bags

No wrinkly skin

All of a Sudden she has a Beautiful Glow

Her teeth are whiter

Hair is More Perfect

Eyes more defined

Ohhhhh the list could continue forever.......

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against her. I think Faith is absolutely breathtaking.

She's been in Maxim's hottest 100 women countless times.

She's beautiful.

But the airbrushing, the alterations, the obvious changes made to her body and face.

Plain as Day !

Poor Woman, they change everything but her name !

I understand the touchups, and maybe if she asks for the bags under eyes to be removed, but really do we have to make her look 20 years younger than she actually is????

Is that the point?

That's not honest, that makes every magazine article where the celebrities show them true selves, FALSE.

They spend time telling the world who they are, from their perspective for once.

Yet again, they have to be twisted, constantly criticized.

Changed.

I love photoshop, but come on, can we use it for good things....other than making every person look completely ideal.

Or not themselves !

Jessica Alba.

This one kills me !

Look at her waist !

The woman just gave birth recently for god sakes !

Do people believe this ????

Wow.

and schnitzel with noodles Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings These are a few of my favorite things Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes Silver white winters that melt into springs.....

Ahhh My Favorite Things.

More today than ever, I've really been thinking about my future, and you know what, it scares me. It scares me that I'm going to be a Junior next year and again sooner than I want, I will have to say goodbye to a few people that literally mean the world to me. I'm scared I'll loose them....I'm scared that I'll end up in the wrong place. Looking out the wrong window, or at the wrong people, or even living in the wrong town. Looking out the window right now the sun is setting and I hear everyone in the background speaking of their past and where they're heading. I know where I want to be, but what if I can't get there? What if I'm not good enough to make it ???
I went home this past weekend for the Opening weekend of my summer job and more than ever I want, No, I Need to be home. I'm over school.

But I can't leave these people.
These girls are my life.
I would never get through it without Colleen, Sydnie, Erin, Ali and Ashlee.
It wouldn't happen. I'm scared.
And soon, sooner than I want- I'm going to have to say goodbye again.
Goodbye to the girls that I call my best friends and hope with all my heart that I won't lose them like I did a few in high school.
Life is getting more and more "real" everyday now
and my mind isn't comprehending what to do and how to handle the situation.
Being alone scares me, and I know I won't ever be alone really but like without help. Without someone to turn to when I need that help.......

I talked to my best friend 3 times today.
I miss her like crazy and I just saw her yesterday, I hate being away from home.
But these girls make this place home.
And I find so much happiness and joy in my work, I couldn't imagine myself in another major. Art IS my life. I could breathe it forever.
And not just my art, but ALL art.

But lately I keep things to myself. I have a lot on my mind. I can feel the tears in my heart that need to spill right now and I need the time to let it go.
So the minutes are ticking and they couldn't move slower.
So I move to my safe haven.
Blogging.

The sun is a light orange and just setting beyond the lake and I wish I could be enjoying it, Spring is arriving closer everyday now and it comforts me.
The greens and crisp air remind me that my summer is creeping closer.
But then I will be leaving my home.
My home that may not be where I spent my childhood or where I was brought into the world.
But the home that I have learned to accept, not because I have to, but because the girls that have become my friends are becoming my family and life wouldn't be the same without them.

My home where I can expect the same things day after day and know that when I need them they will ALWAYS be in the bed next to me, 4 doors down the hall, or a building shortly across the campus.

I'm in love with my life and in love with a wonderful person.
And I have the greatest memories in the form of thoughts and photos.
I'm just terrified that I'm not going to end up where I want to.
"You can't get by on talent, you have to have the passion".
Your talent is useless without the passion !!!
My professor Tom Hite told me tonight, something that I will never forget.
Ever.

There is so little time in life and I want to make the most of it.
I want to start my own business someday, travel, take photos, and be happy in life, everyday.
I want to finally get my book published, but that would require finishing it first.
I find inspiration in the small things in life and this is my greatest joy.

I told my dad this fall as we were driving through a small town near home toward a pumpkin patch. The sun was setting in the country and the hills were rolling for what seemed like forever. The air was beautifully crisp and the sites went on for ages.
The sky was a creamy orange shade and was glowing for what seemed like eternity.
I found serenity.
It was absolutely incredible, something that I will never forget.
The feelings that I get from the small things, like our drive through the country that day are the greatest things to me, things I can hold close to my heart, forever.

Memories that I find in movies like My Girl, And A River Runs Through It,
Benjamin Button and Father of the Bride.
That feeling of peace and happiness, beauty and comfort in films that will truly touch your heart <3 style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);">Another day not to long ago, a few weeks ago actually.
Prince Charming and I went for a drive in effort of taking photos for my photography class, we didn't go far from home and stopped at many places that we both have been before,
but we actually saw this time, really saw what each place was and meant.
We weren't just looking anymore.
We were seeing for the first time the beauty of the town we live in.
A town so rich in history. Important history. And thats something to be so thankful for.
It was a beautiful slightly cool Sunday afternoon just before sunset. We took beautiful shots near the canal and fountains and water ponds, monuments and breathtaking historical sites that were visited in years past but never fully understood, nor appreciated.
Now in my aging, I can appreciate the qualities of these special places.
The true history that can be found in my small town and how important it was just a few decades ago.

Incredible.
The Simple Things, My favorite things.
Vermont.
Stowe, Vermont.
If you haven't been, plan a trip.
It's breathtaking.

The Sound of Music. Not just a musical, not a movie.
A true historical story that can be relived and visited today.

Vermont is one of my favorite places of all time.
The views are the greatest in the world.
The trails and gorgeous areas that can be seen from miles are wonderous.
The wildlife, will leave you speechless.
And the memories that you will create, you will hold for a lifetime.

The simplest of events that have occured within the 3 times I have visited Vermont I still remember 10-12 years later. I remember the gorgeous Inne. The sunsets. The brick paths and amazing gardens. The bubbling brooks found in the middle of mountains or off the edges of paths. The conversations of fudge in a local early 1900's type shop visited with my dad. The polished brook rock that I grabbed from a hotels trickling wall fountain in the bright green grass front yard that I later carved the word "Believe" into. (You see how much Believe occurs in my life??) (Tattoo, not a mistake haha) Gorgeous. I remember the fantastic bike trails that we rollerskated on for hours and hours before sunset. The Fox Inn with the best chocolate chip pancakes I have ever had ! The Alpine Slide with my dad. Gondala Rides. Strolls through town late at night where you can smell cherry wood and fires burning. The adorable little mountain shops. Friendly faces and the memories.
Unforgettable.

Stowe.

The Vontrapp Lodge.
Beauty in the mountains.
A story unfolding differently everyday.
History that should be realized and appreciated by every visitor.
Serenity.
Wonder.

A Mountain Resort in European Tradition.
Harmony. A simple word that captures much of what makes Trapp Family Lodge so special. Here, you will discover so many different experiences, activities and opportunities to enjoy your alpine escape. And yet all this remarkable variety lives in perfect harmony. A vacation at one of Vermont's premiere resort will leave you rested and refreshed. Recharged and reconnected. But most importantly, it will remind you of what’s truly important.

Don't forget to read the Trapp Family StoRY.
I have always dreamed of having my wedding in Vermont and the Trapp Family Lodge couldn't be more beautiful.
I can't imagine my parents being excited about the blessed event being held 6 hours from home but we'll see, Prince Charming won't be proposing anytime in the near future I would hope. Hehe.
Anyway....This place is just the ultimate. I hace been there many times and I just don't see anything but the English Beauty in the middle of the mountains.
It's Captivating.
I want to live here more than anything in the world. But the thing is I haven't seen half the world so how do I know? Of course, its beautiful. But is it right? And how do I find that place???
And I'm afraid to settle. I want to see everything the world has to offer.
And never miss a single thing.
I would love to live in NYC for a year or so,
and a North Carolina port town so I can live a real life Nicolas Sparks novel.
Then again I've always loved Virginia in it's history and class....another place absolutely full of breathtaking memories, never to be lost.
Or Georgia, to live the true life of Paula Deen....and be a genuine Southern girl :)
But Penn. there I could find peace, in the open air of the country that surrounds everything.
I'm not a citygirl. But I love the city. I could spend every weekend there and be happy.
But my heart lies in the country and the smallest things in life are there.
the things that make me laugh, make me smile and make me cry.
They're all there.

I waste my days by the canal in my backyard, sitting on my dock with my dog.
Writing my book.
Reading.
The smell of fires burning and kids laughing and fireworks.
Campfires and marshmellow fights and ghost stories.
The quite buzz of the road a thousand yards or so away.
The peace of hearing the fish jump as the sunsets and the boats slowly passing by.
That's my home. That will always be my home.
I can't find that in the big cities.

I can find the true me in a place liek Vermont. The rolling plains, the peace, the wildlife.
I can enjoy my baking. Find time to read near the fire.
Sit on a porchswing.
Finish my book.
Bake in the kitchen and start my business.
There I can find yet again a new home.
A place to sleep at night and enjoy life in a new way.
Because to me, my home will always be in the hearts of these girls and my family.
My best friends at home and the LOVE of my LIFE.
These special people will always* be home to me.

When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things............

and then I know that I'll make it through the tough times.
I know that I will end up where I am supposed to be. But sometimes the road to that place is scary.
And I think I may need a few more years before I'm ready to completely handle it.
Good thing I'm only a Sophomore.

Thinking of you jake <3>
Everyday. Forever my Angel.
You'll never walk alone.

Obsession....

2009-04-09T11:09:00.007-04:00

You know what..... if you haven't already realized this.... I'm completely obsessed with Post-its.
Like allllll of them. Hearts, stars, neon, black, double stickies, Hello Kitty.
I mean obsessed.
I have this drawer that is roughly hmmm....
maybe 2 1/2 feet wide by 1 1/2 deep and maybe 8 or so inches high.
Well it is completely FULL, like to the top, not able to open anymore stuffed with post it pads, stickies, page markers in EVERY COLOR, shape and size.
I just love love love em.
(Good Luck Chuck Quote haha, great movie by the way)
Annnnyhoooo.... I bought these super cute ones the other day from designhergals.com
after of course making myself a gal look-alike who I might add is astonishingly similar looking to a cartoon version of a Clueless girl, which may or may not label me as a ditzy girl with no care in the world other than herself and fashion- hahaha sooooo not me.
It's just a striking resemblance, hehe.
They are awfully cute notepads though and being so obsessed I couldn't pass them up.
So I scooped up 4 or so magnetic fridge pads and about 2 post-it size packs :)

And at Target often referred to as Tarjeee :) the other day I scooped up a few cute Curious George ones :) No particular reasoning behind this decision no fascination with the little fella or anything. Just the simple fact that they were in the $1.oo bin and I had some spare change and a DIRE NEEEEED for some monkey notes in my collection :)
Writing this now, I sound a bit crazy.....
HAHA but I warned you...I'm obsessed

Mmmmm ColdStone Creamery
Nothing Beats it- although Maggie Moos' makes a close 2nd with their bright blue mouth dying cotton candy deliciousness.

Honestly I won't lie- ICE CREAM is my absolute weakness- I don't think I have ever turned down ice cream.

In fact, once in Virginia at Busche Gardens with my parents I recall getting the most mouth watering delicious yet so simple concoction I have ever licked/biten into.
Rich Vanilla Custard with juicy fresh strawberries in a chocolate dipped freshly baked waffle cone.
Now custard, thats not messin' Custard is the ZEus of godly ice cream !!!!!
Hehe- anyone hungry???

Emmmm Eye Catching Design...

2009-04-07T03:38:00.004-04:00

I was searching through some packaging last night as well and I forgot to post, but I was looking around at various packaging blogs and ran across one of my favorites,

dieline.com

I love the work that they both, represent and create themselves.

Very unique and creative.

The food packaging below is very unique and eye catching,

I love the newness and fresh feel it provides to the viewer, I would stop dead in my tracks to check out that package in a supermarket !

No joke!

And these coffee designs- GOD LOVE THEM !

If you were ever searching for a coffee for a gift- gosh darn it your hunt is over !

This stuff seems incredible just to the eye :)

Who cares how it tastes- haha just kidding.

I mean really though, isn't it just the cutest ever.

I'm a sucker for coffee and stripes AND brite colors !!!!

WOW I GUESS I'M A SUCKER !

I do love the design work and unity felt in the pieces though.

The continuity and fun, fresh feel is what would capture many viewers.

I picture the product being sold in a very high end, small cafe on the edge of a small town with a little girl helping her mom run the shop in cute aprons and a big smile.

People in the business for the love of it, not money.

GREAT IMAGE !

XOXO

Love, MEg

For all of you that don't know I'm going to school for Visual Communications with a strong interest in packaging design. So I'm hoping to end up somewhere in that field someday.

So naturally, I always have my eyes peeled for cute packing ideas.

And here I found a few:

For One lets say our college sucks and cant take a joke.
Two we are the 4 most creative sneaky girls EVER !

So today started out and I had no plans of tricks I wanted to keep it low key
GO figure my life never goes as planned and why should today be any different.
Iwill make each situation as short as possible:

So one friend told her boyfriend she was pregnant, and he in return told his mom- guess the joke was on her LOL !

Then we tied multiple doors together with shoelaces- two doors across from each other so they couldn't get out- that was funny.

We parked a friends car in the middle of the quad.

We put yogurt in a conditioner bottle.

My friends mattress was stolen and hidden away.
SO we Tilted a trash can of water against a door, knocked and ran away.
Now this is where the day of fun went terribly wrong......because retaliation struck, my friend was almost given a swirly not to mention it was from a boy.
Something seems strangely wrong here, i don't think its just me.
So he threw a bucket of baby powder into their room and yeah that's where the day ended.
The Drama began in sooooo many areas.

We locked ourselves in our room and the four of us watched movies
Just girls :)

Out and About.... One Two Three.

Ohhh Hey Fellow bloggers.
I was very excitedly reminiscing on my childhood this morning and a group of movies that I used to absolutely love. The thing is and this may be a little bit strange, but I still love them. Honestly TV was so much better back them, movies included.
Anyway. The Wee Sing Tapes!
Have you heard of them?
Well they are fantastic, being a young child and absolutely captivated into a world of song and dance and immagination truly makes you believe that anything is possible !
It's nice to escape from the every day once in a while and when your young you do that everyday.
There is so much more time when your 5 to enjoy the magical worlds in the movies.
I wish I could force myself to enjoy them again. Have the time to I mean.
Fortunatley :) I was able to watch WeeSing: The BEst Christmas Ever this past christmas and by golly I still rememeber every word to those songs :)
Prince Charming was a little less than thrilled I must say to be watching such childish things but he knows its me and I'm still a big kid inside :)
Check them out though- they're all on DVD nowadays, I should honestly consider purchasing them for my kids someday.
WeeSingWeb

I truly do suggest these for anyone with small children from 1-10 or heck even 20 haha.
They'll enjoy them for hours a day and years to come :)

And Gossip Girl Wow- Blair and Nate Yay ! :) However I love her and Chuck and I love Nate and Vanessa too- maybe not Yay but Yay for her being happy.
I knew Poppy would be a bad influence.
Chuck and V! WOW
Nate and B's Kiss Cutest Ever :)
Betcha saw that one comin to huh V ?

PS. One Tree Hill Update- this weeks episode was a cliff hanger go freaking figure......
Doesn't return until Spril 20th ! Just Fantastic.
And I'm concerned cause it stated when they return it will be the Fianl 5 Episodes.
Now does this mean Ever?
Or for the season?
Come on CW you can't do this to me. This darn show has gotten me through adolescence.
Almost half my life !
Sheesh.

Also......

I am wicked excited for the new Hannah Montana Movie- I understand also a bit childish haha- but One. I work at LimitedToo where Miley Cyrus is a constant sound,thought and vision haha
Also I have 3 cousins, pratically sisters- completely obsessed !

Miranda Lambert and her song Gunpowder and Lead- one of my new favorites :) For sure!
I'm goin home gonna load my shotgun
wait by the door and light a cigarette
he wants a fight now hes got one
He aint seen me crazy yet !
HAHA

Hmmm lets see what else.... well there was a blackout last night and I was scared to all hell.
Hate those things. Had to wash my dishes in the dark lol.

Well I guess thats a good wrap up for now, off to the dark room to develop some photos.
Hooray- I love doing this :)
That wasn't sarcasm, I really do !

XOXO
