COFFEE TALK 01

 

Natalie over at 23Seveteen hosts "Coffee Talk" every Thursday and it's about dang time I join in the fun! During Coffee Talk, Natalie asks us bloggers a handful of questions and we all link-up and get to know each other better. I absolutely love this idea and am excited to finally participate. Well, here goes nothing!

1. What's for dinner tonight?

Honestly, probably leftovers! I am such an avid leftover-eater though. I absolutely dislike wasting food and sometimes things just taste better the second time around, i.e. pizza. I have the wonderful advantage of going home to my mom's wonderful cooking so there's that, too! I am saving my "going out to eat fund" for this weekend (Hey, Boone!) and next weekend (Hey, Boston!).

2. Top three TV shows you never miss.

THIS IS SUCH A HARD ONE. Unfortunately I do not really watch television shows when they first air, but with things like Netflix, friends with DVR, re-runs on tv websites, I try to stay caught up. Right now some shows that are on air that I hate to miss include Once Upon A Time, How I Met Your Mother and Girls! (I am currently finishing up Brothers and Sisters on Netflix as well).

3. What type of body wash are currently using?

Satsuma from The Body Shop! I have been indulging in this scent since high school! I love it so much my mom used to buy me the gift sets every Valentine's Day. I wonder if she will this Valentine's Day! I can always depend on her to make me feel loved on this "commercially couple's holiday". Anyway, this scent is fantastic. I have always been a fan of the fruity/citrus/sweet scents without it being overbearing. Definitely a great body wash to use in the morning, afternoon or evening. The body butter is even better!



4. Take a photo of what's in front of you.

Part of my living room.

5. What's your favorite fruit?
Hmm....... I am going to have to go with mangoes. Oh wait! Oranges. Wait... PINEAPPLE, but only if I eat it in Costa Rica :) Those three are probably my favorites... they just can't compete with one another!

6. Spring is almost here (well, it's already here for us Floridians haha) show me your go-to outfit
Skinny jeans, Hanes Men White V neck, cardigan, wedges (or flats) and a fun light scarf. I'm a simple girl.

Well, you got to know a little bit more about me :)
Can't wait to read everybody's answers! If you would like, share with me your own answers in the comments below or link up with Natalie!

SEVEN THINGS 1 | link-up

I haven't done a link-up in such a long time.
One of my favorite bloggers, and whom I'd like to consider a friend, Gentri has "Seven Things" where you answer seven questions about yourself and provide a silly picture of you each time. I thought, why the heck not! It's definitely a fun way to get to know each blogger and see a different side. Well, here goes nothing!

1. Pick a boyfriend: Edward Cullen, Peeta Mellark, or Harry Potter
Okay, right now I'm in the middle of the second Hunger Games so I am totally into Peeta. Maybe a little bit too into Peeta. I mean, hell-o, he bakes, paints, and his favorite color is orange. Edward is a little too perfect and although I love me some Harry Potter, I was always into Oliver Wood ;)

2. If you HAD to have a crazy hairdo, what hairdo would you choose and why? (mohawk, mullet, etc)
DEFINITELY a pixie cut! I've been growing out my hair for the past two years so I'm a bit attached to it now, but I do miss the sassy-ness and spunk of a short hair cut. Think Emma Watson.

hot diggity dog!

3. If you could be a celebrity what would you like to be celebrated for? (Dance, Singing, Acting, Reality TV [ie no reason], Political Leader, etc)
I can't be a triple threat? Haha kidding. I am probably torn between dancing and singing. Realistically I could maybe get away with dancing with about 234,345,436 hours of training but that's much better than the INFINITE training I would need to be a singer (oh gosh, I am horrible).

4. Be honest- do you brush and floss your teeth daily?
Nope :( Brush, yes. Floss....nope. My dentist and I have a love/hate relationship.

5. What is one fear you are working to overcome?

I've actually been thinking a lot about what my fears are. Right now I'd say my fear is being forgotten. I don't really take being ignored very well.

6. White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Dark Chocolate, or Semi-Sweet (isn't that just dark chocolate)??

White. Chocolate. Even though it's technically not chocolate? Milk chocolate comes at a verrrrrry close second. Of course I like the chocolates that aren't the healthiest for you. I am sucker for Kit Kats, Reeses, Tolberone, Lindt .. okay, I'll stop now. I'm drooling.

7. What is one trend you wish you could pull off? 

 Ridiculously sexy heels.

I just can't do it! I've been practicing wearing heels but one, when you're in college in the MOUNTAINS it just does not make sense to wear heels all the time and two I haven't quite mastered the art of walking in heels. Trust me, I'm practicing and maybe, just maybe I'll look as cool as Sydney or Kendi one day. How do they make it look so natural? I really wonder, do they really wear those all day? Who cares, they look great.

Okay, silly picture time.

Oh, come on! Everyone messes around their Photobooth...alone...in their room. Hahah These are from last year some time. Probably around mid-terms or finals because that's when I tend to go a little crazy. Enjoy. Wow, that was thoroughly embarrassing. I give you permission to judge me.
