Chased by a Squirrel and Other Stories

    Howdy! I hope you all are well. Recently in my blog I expressed I wanted to write more stories, so I did. I gathered up a few moments of my life the past two months that left me laughing or astonished. Also, I decided to stop updating the Bachelor Recap blogs as not many people were reading, with that being said there aren't a lot of readers reading the other blogs either. Shout out to all of my 15 readers!

Driving on Zero
    A few weeks ago I was on my way to see my friend Erin. I happened to be driving downtown and while, at a stoplight, I was trying to change the Justin Bieber song on my phone. I also noticed a message from my mom that read "remember to fill the car up." I inevitably looked at my dash and noticed the gas mileage thing literally said "0 miles to E." H-O-L-Y C-O-W! Then, I saw it change to "LOW." You see, I like to play this game called "Don't Fill Up The Car". The rules are as follows: don't put gas in your car and wait for your parents to drive the car and pay to fill up the gas. I'm alright at this game, but this time I straight up lost. Anyways, I was stressed. Where was the nearest gas station on this tiny street? I didn't know. I wanted to turn and pull over, but I couldn't find any where good to turn. I just kept driving thinking there has to be one if I keep going. If I truly ran out I guess my parents or Erin could bring some gas over. Suddenly, I saw one. I made a sharp merge and kept going forward, but soon realized it was a restaurant. NO. I then noticed a Phillips 66 on the other side of the street. I made some more tight merges, but I made it! I pulled into the gas station relived. I put $30 in and was all filled up! I couldn't believe I drove about 15 miles on 15 miles or less of gas. I made sure to thank Jesus for that little miracle! Now, I'm more aware about how much gas I have left and am less stubborn to fill it up.

O'Doul's Beer Pong
I had a great idea the other day for an activity appropriate for everyone... O'Doul's Beer Pong. It's hilarious! Who plays pong with non alcoholic beer? I don't know, I just could not stop laughing and I thought it would make other people laugh too!
Squirrel Scramble
    Yesterday I was in Fort Collins for an in person geology class. On my way in I heard a black capped chickadee and saw a squirrel like 5 feet away from me. I am always nervous around college educated squirrels because they're too friendly and simply HUGE. Also, I'm worried they'll jump on me. Anyways, class was fine, I identified and examined rocks. On my way out I noticed a gaggle of geese, five squirrels eating, and one tiny bird on the bird feeder. I went closer to try to get a picture of the bird to send to my brother, but then a squirrel looked at me and started running towards me. Needless to say I was worried and ran away from it. I don't know how long it followed me, but I like to imagine it was for a few seconds. I quickly thought "what will someone think if they see this?" However, I figured they'd understand and laugh, but I don't think anyone was near me. It wasn't as scary as I thought it'd be though, so maybe I'll be less nervous around college educated squirrels. 

Cool Brooch
    The other day I was at the mall and while walking I around I saw a woman who appeared to have a large brooch on. As I neared her I thought to myself "What is that? Is that a lizard?" My questions would soon be answered as I passed her. This woman had her pet bearded dragon clinging to her boob.

Well, thank you for reading and have a FABULOUS day! God Bless!

The Best Experience of my Young Life: Casa Bonita

      I read an article by Westword that read if Disneyland and Tijuana had a baby and left it to fend for itself in a strip mall on Colfax, it’d be Casa Bonita. I finally got to experience this gem with some of my friends, Nai and Hannah, who have also been eager to try the restaurant out.       We pulled into the packed parking lot of Casa Bonita that stood in the same shopping complex as two dollar stores and a kids dental office next door. People surrounded the outside as the fountain splashed and I took photos as rapidly as a mom on Christmas morning. This was it, the best of themed dining experiences. We entered into a very confusing entryway and found the line, but first we stopped by the bathroom, which happened to be very nice. We stood in the red velvet roped line with other epicures, such as ourselves, waiting to order at the register. The line was dark, but illuminated by Corona neons, a sign with the words “Easto Much, Peso Little”, a vi...

Summer Style 2019

This summer I have been trying to expand my wardrobe. I noticed I have many solid color shirts and my outfits have gotten boring. I have been trying to change this by getting a top in every color to change it up. It has been a little tough because I try to follow Karl Lagerfeld's advice of purchasing pieces I either need or really love. There really is no reason to spend money on clothing you sort of like, you got to love it. Click on the titles of the clothing to get to the link. Ralph Lauren Polo Flag Cotton Sweater I love this summer sweater! I mean who doesn't love a summer sweater! It is so patriotic and perfect for chilly summer nights. I am looking forward to purchasing this sweater later this summer. Plus, it's on sale!  Brooks Brothers Tipped Supima Cotton Shell This tank top is basic, but so easy to dress up with accessories. This one is also on sale. Lilly Pulitzer Dusk Racer Back Silk Tank Top I absolutely adore this tank top. Lilly ...
