Simply just add some baking soda to acrylic paint  and I ended up sealing my vases to prevent chipping not in video.

GUESS WHOS 25!

You guessed right, today is my birthday! The big 2-5, I feel like I literally just got use to saying I was 24. I have heard more times than not that this year is going to be the best one yet, or either I am going to have a mid life crisis. Whatever god throws at me I think I will be okay. Hey! I get to rent a car hassle free also I have heard, ha! Be sure to keep scrolling to find out more about the birthday girl. Below I am sharing 25 lessons I have learned in the last year. (Dress and Shoes Linked Below)

Twenty- Five is a year to challenge myself to really  look at life with purpose. I find myself getting caught up in planning my future I forget to be in the moment. I get anxiety just thinking about it. We all are  guilty of this. Yes we need to plan for the future in a way but my goodness I find myself focusing on that more that anything.

I AM OBSSESSED WITH THESE SHOES.

 

25 things I learned upon turning 25!
  1. Take care of yourself first, your mind, body and soul.
  2. Never settle.
  3. Surround yourself with people who love you, respect you and value you.
  4. Some people just really suck.
  5. Good things happen when you work your butt off!
  6. When a new opportunity comes you way, take it. You never know until you try.
  7. Saving money is hard! One of my goals is to improve my budgeting habits.
  8. Never be afraid to ask, the worst thing they will say is no.
  9. Find time to just have fun!
  10. Don’t waste your time on something you don’t like. Life is way to short.
  11. Fine peace within yourself.
  12. Grocery shopping is my happy place, and so is shopping for anything else! Hence #7… budgeting…
  13. Be different, god chose all of us to have a talent and purpose. Find that and run with it.
  14. You can always go back home.
  15. Kombucha is life.
  16. Anxiety sucks.
  17. Family really is everything. I am so thankful for my crazy loving family.
  18. I love being a dog mama.
  19. Don’t judge a book by its cover. You always hear that but with the way social media is now a days you see so much and think so much.
  20. You can’t control everything.
  21. Surround myself with like minded people.
  22. Brunch is the best part of the day (on the weekend)
  23. I love going to bed early. Sleep is so good for the soul.
  24. Taking time for myself.
  25. Be proud of who I am, who I have become and am still becoming. 20s are not easy. Everything happens for a reason.

My Dress : Lulus (only a few left)
Shoes: Target Comes in Black, Blue and Nude!
