Currently List

Happy Tuesday! It's time for another Currently List.


Watching: I've been watching Grey's Anatomy, Lucifer, Atlanta, The Good Doctor, The Walking Dead, and 9-1-1. For those of you who watch Grey's Anatomy, how do you feel about Arizona and April leaving the show? I'm actually kind of annoyed that they are leaving...I wish some of the interns would leave.

Reading: I found out that Elizabeth Acevedo has a new book that was just released. I had to go buy it and I'm so glad that I did. I'm loving The Poet X. I can't wait to share a review of this book.

Listening: Top Off by DJ Khaled featuring Jay Z, Future, and Beyonce has been stuck in my head.

Making: I've been working on this month's chapter for the Awesome Ladies Project. I'm making a mini album for this chapter, but I also plan to make a couple more projects for ALP.

Feeling: I'm so exhausted. Being pregnant, recovering from my wisdom tooth removal, and Daylight Saving Time has really made so tired. Luckily, I'm not having any pain from the wisdom tooth removal so I'm really grateful for that. I've just been trying to rest as much as I can.

Planning: I planning to work on some more blog posts especially for this month. My goal is to have at least 10 posts for this month so I'm hoping that I can work on some blog posts soon.

Loving: I've been craving and eating so much vanilla ice cream which is so weird since my favorite ice cream is chocolate chip cookie dough.

Beauty Q & A

Happy Wednesday! Today I'm linking up with The Blended Blog for TBB Asks. TBB Asks is a monthly questionnaire and link up series. This month's theme is beauty. 


1. Eyelash Curler Yes or No? No...I don't even know how to use one.

2. Favorite Nail Shade? This is a tough one. I rarely paint my nails, but when I go to the nail salon, I usually tend to go for a dark color...kind of like a shade that reminds me of the galaxy or night sky. I also do like a lot of blue shades as well.

3. Favorite Lipstick Shade? I don't really like lipstick. I prefer to use lip balm. Usually, I like pink shades, but my favorite lip balm is Maybelline Baby Lips Color Balm Crayon in Sassy Scarlet.

4. Blow Dry or Air Dry your hair? I air dry my hair at home. The only time that my hair gets blow dried is at a salon.

5. Artificial Nails: Yes or No? I rarely get my nails done. I think I get artificial nails about once or twice a year.

6. Foundation: Yes or No? It depends on the situation. I rarely use foundation and I prefer to use a BB Cream.

7. Hair Up or Hair Down? It depends on my mood.

8. Bar Soap or Body Wash? Body wash

9. Bath or Shower? Both, but I have been loving baths especially since I am pregnant. However, I will probably have to start taking showers instead of baths...it's getting hard to get out of the bathtub lol.

10. Favorite Body Lotion? I love Bath and Body Works Dancing Waters. I wish they would bring that scent back.

11. Do you wear perfume? If so, favorite scent? I've never been much of a perfume girl, but I do like Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue.

12. Do you shave your legs every day? Not during winter.

13. Favorite Lip Balm? As I said before I love Maybelline Baby Lips Color Balm, but I also like Sun Bum's lip balm in Pink Grapefruit.

14. How old were you when you first started wearing make-up? I think I was about 18 years old when I first started wearing make up. I never wore any make up in high school and I rarely wore any after that.

Do you have any favorite beauty products?

Currently List

Happy Tuesday! It's time for another Currently List.


Watching: I fell asleep a bit early on Sunday so I didn't finish watching the Oscars. Thank goodness for my DVR because I was able to watch the rest of the award show today.

Reading: As usual, I'm reading blog posts and emails. Tomorrow is the release day for Elle Luna's new book and The Shape of Water so I'm excited to buy those two books. I'm not sure which book I want to read first, but I can't wait to read them.

Listening: I'm getting some laundry done and I'm waiting to hear the little tune that my washing machine makes when the load is done.

Making: I'm working on some blog posts for this month and I'm still working on some posts for May.

Feeling: I have a doctor appointment and a dentist appointment this week so I'm really nervous.

Planning: It's going to be a very busy month and I have to finish planning the rest of this month. There are so many appointments and events that is going to take place this month so I know that my planner is going to get a lot of use.

Loving: I got a new Polaroid SnapTouch Camera and I'm still learning how to use it, but so far I kind of like it. I have noticed that the photos look great when it's taken in a bright area. I think this camera will be perfect for my journal and other crafty/scrapbook projects.

March Goals

Happy Monday! Oh my goodness...can you believe that it's already March? I keep hearing everyone say that January felt like a long month and February felt like it went by way too fast. I actually think January went by fast and February lasted forever. Either way, I'm really excited for this month. There are a lot of exciting things that are going to happen this month. 

Since it's going to be a busy month, I had to make sure that I made some new goals as well as use my planner to make sure that everything goes as planned. Today, I thought it would be great to do a recap on my February goals as well as share my new goals for March. 


Recap of February Goals
  • Read 1 book: I finished reading My Friend Fear by Meera Lee Patel. You can read my review here. 
  • Meal plan more: This was such a fail. I have got to do better. If you have any tips on meal planning...please share them.
  • Make more art: I didn't really make any art in February, but I did get some supplies that I needed for some projects that I need to complete.
  • Post 15 blog posts: I published exactly 15 blog posts this month. 
  • Try new writing techniques: I also did not try any new writing techniques, but I did make a list of some techniques that I want to try. 

March Goals

  • Read 1 book
  • Start meal planning
  • Publish 10 blog posts
  • Make at least 3 scrapbook/craft projects
  • Declutter one room or closet
