    What to do in Chicago

    Things to do: Navy Pier: The navy pier is a beautiful scenic spot for photos of the great lakes. I would suggest coming here at any time during the day unless it’s rainy. Cloud Gate: This one is super touristy. You’ll struggle to get a good photo because it is always crowded there. Sky deck: You can see the entirety of Chicago from here. I would also suggest 360 Chicago. The field museum: This museum was actually sinking slowly before a project in May of 2018 to fix the issues. Chinatown: Places to Eat: Lou Malnati’s Chicago Style Pizza: It is considered one of the best pizza places in Chicago.…

    Coffee Shop Review: Casa Blanca

    NOTE: I was not paid to review this coffee shop. Everything that we got at Casa Blanca was paid for by us. We were not compensated in any way! About: Website: www.casablancacoffee.co Instagram: casablancacoffeeroasters Location: 7409 Market St, Wilmington, NC 28411 Ratings: Atmosphere: 10/10 Coffee: 9/10 Food: 9.5/10 Baristas/employees: 10/10 Overview: I can easily get work done here while chatting with Anthony about different topics. The music is more like background sound than noisy music with loud beat and lyrics. The style of the coffee shop is a lot of white and natural colors. Anthony says the outside has a southwestern feel to it. The coffee is always delicious. I…

    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. I am going for foods with the nutrients to make my body feel good. I want to feel good after I eat. I don’t want that annoying after eating slump that we get when we are fueling our bodies with the wrong things.   Exercise consistently: I want to start exercising at least once…

    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…
