The Year of Brave

Just look at all these courageous women! Someone passed them awesome sauce for sure. Now some of you might call 2013 the year of brave, but let's make 2014 even braver.

Say what you want to say. If you don't take a stand on issues you care about like bullying, protecting children, saving animals, the earth or whatever... you'll probably end up regretting it and no one will hear it. Activate the world of change with your singular voice. Then, when others do the same, it becomes an 'Nsync or 1D band. Am I right or am I right?! You speaking your mind just might spark an idea revolution and quite possibly even inspire others to join you.

So, what are you waiting for?

You wanna' know what happens when you don't say what you want? Silence. Regret. Hurt. Annoyed feelings. Finally, you become a door mat and people continue to walk all over you because they don't know where you stand. Let's make a toast to 2014 being the year of the braver!

If I haven't told you lately, thank you for reading my voice. It's very therapeutic, this whole writing thing. I thoroughly enjoy it & appreciate the heck out of you all! Best wishes for a Happy New Year! Stay safe, my friends! Looking forward to new beginnings in the year of the orchid color!

Motivational Mondays

Be phenomenal.

Amen to this video!

I don't always ponder my phenomenalness, but when I do...

I like to watch motivational videos and post them.

Then I channel Waterboy's Rob Schneider

while wearing my "Find Your Ness" t-shirt to tell you all...

YOU CAN DO EEEET! YOU CAN DO EEEET ALL NIGHT LONG!

Sunday Funday With Lorde

Who in here loves this song?! I want to learn how to run things. And I'm not very pretty. So there. It's official news now that Lorde made this song just for me!

Lorde also wants to let you know that she's kind of tired of getting told to throw her hands up in the air. So there. Me personally, I'm kind of tired of getting told to do anything at all. Where's my maid already? Geez. Money can't buy happiness, but it sure can help you hire people to do stuff for you.

"Yeah, baby, yeah! Now that's what I'm getting

randy chit chatting about baby, yeah!"

- just screamed Austin Powers -

Meanwhile, sharks with laser beams are really upset that horses and bayonets have stolen some of their thunder. They're waging war, so I guess I'm the middle man between them. Just so you know, in case peace talks turn violent, I'm armed with a spork in my back pocket. Yeah, buddy.

Always remember, friends:

Life was made to be abundant and glorious. Go get those bands that make her dance. Holler.

God wants you to get everything you want in life. Exhaust every dream. You only live once. YOLO.

(That's Drake's motto he also coined just for me, by the way.)

Enjoy your day ;o)

Janeenersss

Janeenersss on Instagram is amazing and she's also a close friend of mine. Her artistry is top notch. I'm always telling her I need her to do my eyes! Yup, even makeup artists get in personal makeup funks... that is everyone except this creative chica Janeenersss.

If you'd like to follow someone so amazing that even Rihanna's makeup artist Lora Arellano follows, then click here. Janeenersss has also been featured by Lime Crime & Sugarpill Cosmetics, which is also really cool. Way to go, gurrrl!

Now you all can finally agree with me that Janeenersss reminds me of a realistic Snow White. Ahhh-mazing resemblance, right?! Which reminds me I need to ask her to dish on her skin care regime for the masses. We've also asked her to make some appearances on my YouTube channel going live in 2014, so stay tuned for the deliciousness. Feel free to click "Subscribe" here. Maybe we too can put on some smelly animal mascot costumes, twerk & talk skincare. Ding! Ding! Ding! That's the golden viral video ticket for sure...

Just kidding. Me twerking on camera ain't a free show, babes. If I'm twerking... someone somewhere is paying in some way, shape or form. Just ask the binders full of men. Heh.... heh.. heh.
