June Haul!

In light of my May haul, I figured why not a June haul.

About a week ago, my mother and I made our way to one of the bigger cities in my tiny province. And, I'm all about discount shopping. So I took to the stores of a huge mall, twice the size of one I normally visit. So many lovely stores to visit and find deals.

I'm not sure how many people prefer tea over coffee. But I'm one of those people. I usually shop at Starbucks owned company Teavana. However, David's Tea is a small more affordable company. So off I went in search of a tea set.

And, boy did I certainly have find one -

So, now, a bargain you ask? I got the tea pot and cups for less then 30.00. The cups came free with the purchase of the pot. I considering purchasing an individual cup with infuser. But, the tea pot was the best deal.

And loose tea is probably the best quality tea you can buy.

We made a trip to Marshall's! Yes, Marshall's. Bulk quality stuff for cheaper prices. I searched the racks for a cute find, however, I found nothing I really wanted until I found the mugs.

Okay, so you could say I have a bit of an obsession with mugs/tea/and tea pots.  But for 3.99 for a 10.00 cup, I couldn't pass it up!

Keep calm and drink tea.

That was quite possibly the steal of the day!

My Mom and I spent some time looking at other stores around this large and quite fabulous city, until our stomachs rumbled and we decided to grab a bite to eat at an old favourite pasta/pizza joint of ours.

I ordered some spaghetti and meatballs, and she rice and rigatoni with sausage and chicken. With complimentary "all-you-can-eat" salad and bread.

They were delicious.

Last stop was as Mom desired, Old Navy, I've never shopped there much and I didn't figure I would really find anything there. But I went looking anyway. I need a pair of sandals. It was a great place as they were sandal sale and dress sale. And, I definitely love dresses.

So, I looked for stuff in my price range. Which isn't very big.

Got sandals for less then 5.00$ and the dress for 7.99$!

And the dress, was cute too...

All in all, I found some great deals, and even more then that I got quite a few things that I love. This is the contents of my June Haul.

I got my first job ever!

So I have wonderful news for all of you!

I got my first ever job! I finally did it. I rarely ever feel accomplished in my life. I've never achieved anything truly outstanding. And though this may not seem truly outstanding. I think it is. 

I start my official training at a teen clothing store on November 2nd! I'm unbearably excited.

Things at university have slowed down considerably. Only one midterm left this month! And one next month. Weehoo!

I've been celebrating in a way

With some unhealthy foods...

And some healthy things. 

Though I'm still buried in school work for the major part of my day. I've managed to spend some time for myself to keep myself healthy (as healthy as possible). 

I love to remind everyone quite frequently that fall is my favourite season. So I'm enjoy the slightly chilly weather! 

I also like free things, I like to collect coupons and get free samples. And thankfully, my samples arrived today. 

Yay! 

What's all new with my readers? 

A Day

I'm a very disappointing blogger. I haven't managed to update my quotes pages in days. And a few days ago I gave a very sparse elusive version of a normal blog post. Hm, what's wrong with me you ask? Life.

...Well, maybe that is a bit dramatic. But in general, life took a dump on my head. Every once and awhile it has to make a bowel movement on someones head, right, RIGHT?

Honestly, in losing something we always feel a bit on the damper side for awhile. It's natural. So instead of being so dramatic, I'll simply say that life, took a turn sharp to the left away from my intended plans. (I believe I covered this topic in an earlier blog post)

After crying on public transit and stuffing my face with bagels, strawberries, rice and chow mein, I've discovered food is seriously not the answer to life altering questions (or depression as we folk like to call it, it makes you fat, seriously no joke.)

Instead, I figured I would solve more minute problems. Like that fact my pencil case has gone missing completely. How...I don't even know. So I went to Wal-Mart for all things handy and got myself some pens, pencils and a pencil case I hope I won't lose - lets all pray for a miracle guys!

A new store opened recently in our mall called Teavana. This place is almost equilvant to Starbucks or H&M in my books. I have not only an obsession for dresses but an obsession for tea. And china - tea cups. So this place is ideally - perfect.

I did my nails as well in an effort to make myself feel better!

And nothing feels better when you're down in the dumps then laying in a nice warm bed.

A Cup of Tea

So one of my favorite things is tea.

In this post, I will talk about tea, and what types of tea are good for certain things.

1. Chamomile: stressed out, about to go to bed, angry
* So if you're boyfriend/girlfriend/partner has done something enough to make you angry, make yourself some chamomile tea!
2. Green: Tired, feeling sick, trying to lose weight
* The recent events in my life have lead me to find this completely true!
3. Chai: Sluggish, having a sore stomach
* I have not tried this remedy, if anyone does, let me know.
4. Oolong: Burning fat, breaking out
* Heading to the gym? Have a cup of oolong before hand.
5. Peppermint (personal favorite): Prone to headaches, sore
* Peppermint tea is wonderful, add some sugar and the head shall disappear.

There are many types of tea, and I like most all of them. However, these can provide you non-pharmaceutical remedies!

Also, I like apple-cinnamon tea.
