PUMA 'Sky Wedge Reptile' Sneaker

I finally got my new shoes!! I didn't like the style of wedge sneakers (sneaker wedges?) but after seeing multiple styles I saw these on Nordstrom. Btw Android doesn't have the Nordstrom app anymore?? Anyways they were on sale and so I got them! I looked online for ordering sizes and they said to order 1/2 size up but I don't think you need to.. I read some reviews and a lot of people said they had to but some people didn't.. The only size available was 6.5 and I'm a 6 for all/any brand.

And here are some pics with my dog!


The 6.5 is comfy and not too big. I usually like to have my shoes on tight/snug and they have a little room but not enough to bother me at all. The heel is only 3 inches high. It may seem high but it is very comfortable. I sprianed my ankle twice and sometimes I do feel slight discomfort if I wear high heels for too long but I walked my dog in these and it was fine! :)

side note: third day using aloe on my face and it's been going good so far! :]

Easy Curled Hair As Easy As 1-2-3!


Being the lazy being that I am and only doing some quick shopping, I decided to curl my hair. I'm actually not even a girly girl but I love how curls look. I also hate taking forever and I have a lot of hair. (Not thick hair) So I don't know if anyone else has this problem but if i keep messing with my hair my scalp produces more oil and then my hair starts to look flat... nasty I know so I try to do as minimal things to my head/hair as possible.
Now first you have your hair and you can brush through it or not but I didn't. (1)
You then split your hair into 2 like pigtails. (2)
Then you split each pigtail into 3 and curl! I tied one pigtail while loosening the other before splitting into 3. (3)
As easy as 1-2-3 ;)


Before :)






As you can see my hair is sort of normally wavy. It isn't stick straight. So this might work better on my hair since it is so easy to curl. I had the heat on at 330 degrees and just quickly curled my hair. I used a straighter as well so it would turn out more wavy. Throughout the day it did loosen up a little bit because I don't like to use hair spray and looked effortless. It saved so much time and was so simple!

Fishing with Mama Rodriguez

So we went fishing (06/14/14) since it was Aaron's last day here and we thought we could use the 5 receipts we saved to redeem for a a free extra 2 hours on top of the minimum we need to pay..
Lake Perris
(small boat)
first 2 hours -> $30
every hour after is $8
On THURSDAYS, first 3 hours -> $30
(fishing pontoon)
first 2 hours -> $85
every hour after is $20
On THURSDAYS, first 3 hours -> $85

But the receipts only work for the small boats so we're using them for next time but we decided to get the fishing pontoon..
All we got was sunburnt and no fish -.-
Note to self: if we're gonna buy nightcrawlers, we either need to keep changing the soil or get them only the night before.. maybe 2 days before.. We bought them on mon/tues originally thinking we were going on thursday but it got pushed to saturday... We think it was because the worms were rotting/smelling because we didn't even get a nibble in the spot we always go to. Also we asked where there were a lot of bites and checked it out but nada.. :/

Plus, I fell off my chair when the waves were kind of getting rough and scratched up my elbow.. AND I lost my rod in the ocean cuz I was trying to steer the boat and totally forgot about my line and yeah... ughh

I'm sooooo tired.. I hope Aaron has a safe flight back to Trinidad! And I hope he has a great summer there because he finally gets to rest after a tough semester at rcc.. I'm gonna miss him :'(

Easy Fried Rice

Aaron's moving out in a week so we've been packing up his stuff to leave at my house and that means packing up pots and pans and containers and etc. We've been lazy so not all the kitchen stuff has been packed and we've been trying to cook more so we can eat more healthy. Now fried rice isn't exactly the HEALTHIEST meal but we've kept it pretty simple. I didn't take pictures of our steps but i've taken pictures of the end result! :)

We used the Uncle Ben's whole grain boil-in-a-bag rice. We had it for awhile and decided to cook it and get it out of the way so we wouldn't have to pack it. It's very interesting. It comes in 4 small packs of rice with tiny holes in them and you just cook it in a pot of water. We cooked all 4 but only ended up using 3. We got one bunch of asparagus from walmart, canned corn, and some already cooked sausage.

Cook some cut up onions in olive oil. Then add the mixture of asparagus, canned corn and cooked sausage and cook that for awhile. We forgot that you should probably boil the asparagus and then cook them because they have a very "planty" taste. Also, cooking them in the oil for such a short period of time will not cook it thoroughly and it will still be a bit hard. Then add the rice. We added no salt and no pepper. The ratio mixture of asapargus, canned corn, sausage and onions to rice should be around 1:1.


Our fried rice! :) It was so delicious! The salt of the sausage was a a nice addition to the fried rice!


A close up of our fried rice!



On a side note, while at walmart, we found these blue raspberry twinkies!! My boyfriend said he pooped blue-ish greenish poop so have fun! hehe ;)

Fish Cleaning Supply Giveaway!

It's 3:33 AM right now and we're gonna go fishing in a bit! But while we're waiting for it to be 5ish, I was cleaning our old fish tanks that need to be washed because Aaron is leaving the country soon and we gotta clean out our tanks (long story).. We've been letting them run with no fish for around 2 weeks now.. blech
It's accumulated a lot of gunk and I decided to clean it out to keep me awake.
Who else has small hands that basically don't fit properly into gloves.. like ever.. Whether it be latex gloves for dissecting or just winter gloves to keep you warm.. which I don't think work at all.. lol
I found these gloves in size S at Daiso which is a Japanese convenience store I guess you could call it. We found these as well as the brush.

This brush is PERFECT for cleaning out the little ditches in tanks. The glass tanks don't have them but the plastic ones do. We had the betta bow for when we had bettas. 
As you can see here, I'm cleaning out the little ditches that this tank has. It's also perfect for cleaning the corners in tanks so you can use them for glass tanks as well. You can also use regular toothbrushes as well which is what we did at first but as you can see, this brush also has bristles on the top. You can't reach the bottom corners with a regular toothbrush but you can with this one!

I was thinking that I might want to do a little giveaway to get my blog going as well as wanting to share this with you guys! Please tell me if this is something you may want because then, I can prepare and get the items to giveaway! This is free and I will currently only be shipping in the U.S.A. 

What I want to giveaway is the brush as well as a pair of gloves because I have never found gloves that fit me as perfect as these do. Think Asian sizes because it is from an Asian store. I have really small fingers so this glove was perfect for me. If you want, I can give you the measurements of my hands/fingers (lol) so you guys can get a better idea of how small/big you want to go!
Thank You and please let me know in the comments below and feel free to check out my other posts! :)
