A Blogger's Christmas List

Hello All,

Can you believe that Thanksgiving is Thursday? Gah I'm so excited because well...

Source
Anyways when Thanksgiving comes around we all think about two things I feel what we're grateful for (spoiler alert, tomorrow's post) and Christmas. I have have started coming up with ideas for other's gifts but I'm going to post my wishlist and try to keep it short. 

1. Tablet
Source
I use my computer for EVERYTHING and I bring it almost EVERYWHERE. But it gets really heavy so I would want a Tablet that I could use away from home/dorm room.

2. Camera
Source
I need a new camera that takes good pictures BUT also good video for blogging and vlogging.

3. An Anchor phone case
Source
4. Teen Wolf season, The First Time and The Internship on DVD
Source
Because they all feature my man Dylan <3

5. Cake Pop pans
Source
6. Cake decorating lessons
Source
7. Dylan O'Brien
Source
Oh, sorry I forgot you can't ask for another human being for Christmas!

So, that's my Christmas list. And number 7 is about 50% a joke. What is a on your Christmas list? Let me know in the comments below.

The Perfect Man

Hello All,

You know those girls in chick flicks who have their "list" of qualities that they want their perfect man to have? And in the movie the man they normally end up falling for has none of the qualities because that would make for a extremely boring movie right? 

Today my friend, Lauren and I were talking about life and everything. The topic the of boys came up, are you surprised? You shouldn't be, girls like to talk about boys. LOL. Anyways that conversion got me thinking if I could find the perfect guy right now who would he be. 

It would be a guy who takes school seriously.
Source
 Has a strong sense of family
Source
He has to love dogs.
Source
As much as I'm not a sports girl, I love guys who love sports.
Source
He has to have some idea of where he wants to be in the future.
Source
I want him to say sweet things to me, but only if he really means them.
Source
I want hims to be funny (that is actually a 100% must, if he can't make me laugh, he's not worth it).
Source
He has to be comfortable in his one skin.
Source
A little bit of a smart ass too, I don't know why I think smart asses are funny.
Source
I want him to want to be with me
Source
But he needs to have good friends that he wants to be with his friends too.
Source
Actually just screw the perfect guy and give me Dylan O'Brien! He can be my perfect man!
Source
Happy Man Crush Monday! Featuring mine!
Source
Who is your Man Crush Monday? Are you a total fan girl over him? Let me know in the comments below.

P.S.-If you don't know about Dylan O'Brien and Tyler Posey's bromance you have to check out this video because its the best bromance I've ever seen.

The Social Media High

Hello All,

Have I ever told you how much I love social media? Because I do. Although that shouldn't be too surprising because I feel like most bloggers love social media. 

I don't do drugs.
Source
Yes, I know that is out of left field, but just stay with me okay? Anyways, I have never done drugs so I have no clue what its like to be high. But I feel like social media is an addiction that give off a "high". 

I get that feeling when a picture I put on instagram gets a lot of likes.

I get it when I get a new follower on instagram or twitter.

I get it especially when a blogger I love follows me on twitter.

Or when a blogger I love thinks I'm funny enough to favorite or retweet. 

I don't know why these things make me so happy but they are the reason I would never delete my social media. Do you feel that way about your social medias? Let me know int he comments below. 

And since this a post about social media, I'm going to shameless promote mine. Make sure you check out my twitterinstagram and blog facebook page.
