    Coffee Shop Review: Social Coffee

    Disclaimer: I was not paid to review this establishment. I bought my own coffees and other items. About Social Coffee Supply: Instagram: Socialcoffeesupply Website: www.socialcoffeesupply.com Ratings: Atmosphere: 9 out of 10 Coffee: 9.5 out of 10 Food: 9 out of 10 Baristas: 10 out of 10 Overview: The atmosphere is nice. I can easily get blog work done here without distractions. It is good for slightly larger groups of people as they have a conference room for public use. All you have to do is reserve it for your time block. They place a relaxing/chill music playlist. The playlist is not distracting like some coffee shop playlist can be. The…

    New Years Resolution

This is the year of achieving goals and hitting major milestones! My goals for this year: Eat Healthier: This isn’t the same as others eat healthily.

    Life Update

    Hey everyone, This is going to be a life update. This will cover things like work, school, house etc. The first thing to talk about is work. I think everyone knows I am a licensed cosmetologist in the state of NC. I graduated from my local community college with a degree in cosmetology. I started working for a full-service salon in July 2018. I am no longer working there. I was asked to leave because I was not earning the salon enough money. Also, the owner didn’t like the fact that I was in school to continue to learn. I was unemployed starting mid-November 2018. Honestly, it feels kind of good…

    Bohemian Rhapsody | Movie Review

    Bohemian Rhapsody | Movie Review *NOTE: I do not own any of the rights to the queen franchise. I am not in partner with Bohemian Rhapsody movie. I am not in partner with Spotify.* My Rating: 5 out of 5 My opinion: I will say it was a 5 out of 5 not for complete historical accuracy but for the overall good movie. The actors were well picked. They did a phenomenal job. The historical accuracy was of course off by a couple of years for certain things. The critiques said the movie didn’t portray the sexuality of Mercury correctly. This is just simply untrue. They portrayed his homosexual preference…
