My Music Monday ♥


Hi guys! I thought of a cool post idea that I can do every other Monday or so, where I share my favorite songs of the moment. Kind of similar to the Music Monday's that Simon and Martina from YouTube do! I don't think I'll do one every Monday because I tend to listen to the same songs for weeks on end before finding some new ones! I mostly listen to kpop (Korean pop) but I listen to really anything, as long as it sounds good. Yuna and Frank Ocean are some of my favorite artists. I'm open to recommendations as well! Don't worry if you think you're music taste is too different for me (I've jammed to Die Antwoord and Pierce The Veil, both completely different from kpop LOL)  So yeah! You might like a song or two that I post, so check them out!

  1. Girl's Day - Female President; sexy MV!
  2. B.A.P - Coffee Shop
  3. Dal Shabet - Be Ambitious
  4. 2PM - A. D.T.O.Y / 2PM - Comeback When You Hear This Song; I've been listening to these songs the most. Watch the music videos! I literally melted.
  5. EXO - Wolf / EXO - Baby Don't Cry
  6. Sunny Hill - Darling of All Hearts
  7. Girls' Generation - Love & Girls / Girl's Generation - Liuga Franca; My girls look so beautiful in the Love & Girls PV! Liuga Franca is my absolute favorite!!
  8. SHINee - Sleepless Nights/ SHINee - Orgel; I'm a shawol so its only natural that I love everything they do. This album came out a while ago but I listen to these sons daily.
  9. Lee Hyori - Miss Korea/ Lee Hyori - Bad Girl; Miss Korea is my favorite song and I love the Bad Girl MV.
  10. SHINee - Aside/ SHINee - Beautiful/ SHINee - Girls, Girls, Girls/ SHINee - Punch Drunk Love; basically this whole album. I'm a shawol what can I say! 
  11. B1A4 - What's Going On
  12. Sistar - Give It To Me
  13. Miley Cyrus - We Can't Stop; I'm just as ashamed as you are...


So that's what I'm jamming to as of right now! I hope you find a song that you like! 



Super Sweet Sugar Scrub ♥


Hey! I found a super quick and really easy face scrub that you can make a home and I guarantee you don't need to make a trip to the store for this one. The only things you will need for this scrub is:

Sugar (pure, natural, cane sugar is the best)
Water
A bowl and spoon

Only 2 basic ingredients! Now before you start freaking out like "Sugar will make me break out!", relax. The sugar that goes into our candy and sweets may not be great for your skin but its not the same as natural sugar. Natural sugar is actually excellent skincare.
  • Sugar is a natural humectant. This means it draw moisture from the environment into the skin. It helps hydrate and keep you skin moist.
  • Sugar is a natural source of glycolic acid that that helps your skin to look younger and fresher.
  • Sugar's small particles are a great topical exfoliant and is used in a lot of the body scrubs you buy daily to get rid of dead skin.
  • Check out these facts in detail here!


All you need is sugar (I didn't have any fancy brand of sugar so I used Wal-Mart brand), warm water, (I popped mine in the microwave for a few seconds) and a bowl and spoon!

Put 2 tablespoons of sugar in a bowl. 

Blocked my brothers face out with an alpaca in the spoon kekeke
Mixing time! Add 3 tablespoons of warm/hot water. Mix until all the grains are dissolved. You don't want them to tear your skin! Mixing might take a while but keep at it. You'll know its done when it becomes a sticky, clear liquid. 
Should look like this ^_^

Finally, apply it to your face and massage it in! ( try not to eat your fingers off kekeke) Its not like a mask that you can keep on for 10+ minutes but I left it one for about 3 minutes. Once you're done, rinse it off with warm water or a steamed washcloth. And that's it! This mask is quick, easy, and can help get rid of that dead skin and clear clogged pores!  If you want to mix this up try adding a little bit of honey or lemon. Honey is great for fresh skin and lemon can help fade scars. Sugar can be used in many ways for skin care so look forward to more masks/scrubs involving sugar!Try this out and let me know how it works for you! Thanks!~

PantyFly Review! ♥


Hello! I'm really excited about this post guys! Jasmine Blu did a post a while ago about an awesome site called PantyFly. It is a monthly subscription for underwear! Its only $9 a month and they send you 3 pairs of randomly (also depending on you membership choice) chosen underwear.

On the site there are 3 membership options to choose from: Barely There Underwear (thongs and string bikinis) Sleek and Sexy Underwear (modern briefs, hipser, hi cut and bikini) and Mix and Match Underwear which is a mix of the first to options. Simply choose a membership and size, pay, and wait for your underwear to arrive!

Anna and I ordered ours only a day apart and we were SO excited to receive our packages. We both got the Mix and Match package. I'm not going to lie, I never wear thongs or anything close to that but it was exciting looking forward to the possibility of getting one. I think that is one of the best aspects of pantyfly: the anticipation. Not knowing what kind of underwear you're going to get it pretty exciting. (Why I was so excited for underwear, I shall never know...) Both our packages came super fast, only a few days.

Anyways! I love what I got but...it was a bit...showy. Literally when I opened the package this was my face:

LITERALLY.
 Its surprisingly embarrassing to post pictures of you underwear online but I really what you to see what I got!
Here is le front.
Here is le back.
Here is le detail.
(e.i Someone pointed out the black on is backwards in the pictures! Sorry!)
Yeah! I got thongs! *embarrassed eye shift* The blue and green pair have lace but are more like shorts so I might wear these more often than the others. It is a tiny tiny bit big but only by a tiny bit. As for the purple and black ones. 
How I feel when I wear them.
The black pair is the most revealing. It covers nothing but is surprisingly comfortable. And the purple pair covers the front but the back disappears when I put it on. They fit perfectly but I don't know how often I'll wear them, if at all. Just going to have to save them for that special someone! LOL!
Even if I'm not going to wear them often I'm still very happy with what I got! Now the best part of the subscription is THE DEAL! All of the pairs came from st♥eve (couldn't find a website) and each pair is $10 but I got all three for only $9! Also there is no shipping so it was $30 of underwear for only $9. Isn't that a great deal? Now you might not get this great of a deal with every package because they work with many companies.

So check pantyfly out! If you have any questions feel free to ask in the comments! Thanks guys!












My bicycling experience! + Cycling benefits ♥


Hi everyone! Yesterday my best friend Anna and I went on one of our biggest adventures yet. We have been talking about co owning a guinea pig or getting a couple hamsters, the only problem is, my dad is off camping so we had no ride and her parents won't warm up to the idea of a pet until she actually brings it home, so there was no way they'd willingly take us to get a pet. Anna and I are both impatient and bored and always looking for something fun to do. So we grabbed some money and our bikes and decided to travel around town and see if we could find a pet store. Little did we know, we would end up traveling MUCH farther than we intended! 

Here is the distance we traveled! I'm not sure if this was our exact route or not because we made a ton of short cuts and turns and remember, we didn't have a clue we're we were going! We remembered there was a pet store some where around Turtle Run but other than that we were just having fun and looking around. 

We biked really far in the HOT sun. We kept saying how absolutely crazy it was to be so far from home on bikes with no real clue we're we were headed! We made a lot of stops for drinks. One of the downsides for the trip was our tans. We love getting nice tans but we (mostly Anna LOL) got boarder line BURNT. We had to stop and switch pants because he knees were getting burned! Other than that we had a ton of fun and we did find a pet store and we got to hold a guinea pig! Weee~



While bike riding, it occurred to me that this much have a ton of benefits to your body! I've always know that it was great exercise but what else does it do? Here's what I found!
  • For those of you wanting to burn calories, bike riding burns them like crazy! 
  • Bike riding has been linked to improving mental health and it helps strengthen your immune system!
  • You develop killer legs! You work your quads, gluts and calves while pedaling. Who doesn't want toned legs? Judging by my sore legs, my muscles were getting pretty worked!
  • It boosts energy! This is one of my favorite benefits because I hate feeling tired after doing nothing for days. Riding bikes improves you energy level by 20% and decreases fatigue by 65%. If you're feeling tired and sluggish, grab your bike!
  • Its good for you joints! But remember, don't over work your body! Its never good to do too much that's its dangerous.
  • Not only your legs get toned but your whole body! Working the handle bars can really do good for your arms.
  • Its great for your heart! Riding bikes can lower you blood pressure and cholesterol.
See? Tons of great benefits to simply riding around on your bike. But a side note: always wear a helmet. I didn't wear one but its extremely dangerous not too. Make sure to keep yourself hydrated! Drink a lot of water and drinks with those good electrolytes in them (ex: Gatorade, Powerade) so you don't suffer from heat exhaustion or dehydration. Don't pedal too hard and if you're new a biking don't go too far. I haven't biked in a long time and I'm paying the price for it now! I went way farther than I'm used to and now my thighs are so sore I can barely walk! (no biggy! lol) Make sure your bike is in good condition and I recommend going with a friend or family member to play it safe. Wear sun screen so you don't get burned while out in the sun!

Hope you give biking a try! Thanks for reading and look forward to more posts!

I'm back! + New room! ♥


Hi everyone! First off, let me apologize for the LONG hiatus! Summer has finally started so its time to get back into blogging! I'm still dealing with a few (well one thing) that's always on my mind and really bringing down my mood half the time but I'm trying to bring up my mood and deal with things day by day! I'm so excited to start blogging again! I think I need to go watch tons of Xiaxue's Guides To Life videos to start feeling like myself again. When I watch her video's I always feel like I shouldn't care what people think of me and just live my life! But that's a post for another day~

Recently, I painted my room! For all the years I've been living in this house (13-14 years I think) my room has been pink or pink AND purple. I love pink, its my favorite color, so I had to have some pink still on my walls but I wanted to go for a new, different color. So I went with BLUE! I love blue and initially wanted to go lighter than it is now, without looking like a nursery. After its been dry for a few days, ts very electric blue and even though its not a light as I thought it would be, I love it! The pink is also darker but I love it too. I could really get used to these colors! Here are a few pics!

The paint looked super pretty when we opened it!

You can see in the back my old pink and purple walls ^_^


Finished product! With the curtains open its much bright. There is a little bit of pink on the far wall but I can fix it whenever I want. Pretty nice, huh?



And A BIG SUPER HUGE thanks to my best friend Anna that helped my paint THE WHOLE ROOM! We did it all by ourselves! I would never have finished without her!

So what do you guys think? I really like it and I can't wait to get some new curtains and accessories to go in it! ( I haven't even slept in there yet; I've been on the couch lol) Anyways, I'll try my very best to be more active on my blog! I have a pretty awesome post coming up in a few days. If you have any interesting blog ideas that you'd like me to try or do more often feel free to email me at:
taetiseoshinee@gmail.com

(pretty awesome email huh?) Thanks guys! Love you so much!
