Take Some Time for You

Ever since watching this video of Bubz I've been really inspired!

She made this video about just taking a relaxing night for your self. I realize I don't take much time for myself. It seems like I'm always constantly going, and am always stressed and tired. I work every day from 10:50 to 7. Long days at the bank wear me out, and by the end of the night my feet are usually super sore. haha. But yeah, tonight I just decided I was going to take time for myself. I worked out a bit after dinner, then filled up the tub with hot water for a nice bubble bath. :) It was wonderful guys! I put a hair mask in my hair, put on a face mask, and just laid in the water while reading a daily devotional bible study book. It was so refreshing to spend time with God in a moment of peace and tranquility. I think I'm going to try and take a bath now acleast once a month from now on. :) I want to also just in general take more time for myself and definitely make more time for God. When I'm spiritually sick it shows in all areas of my life. I haven't been where I should be with God lately... my spiritual walk has been weak. I want to make sure and read my bible every day, that I keep my faith strong, and that I'm constantly growing closer to God. :) Ladies, I think you all should take a day for yourself and spend some time with the Lord. I promise it will refresh you! and hey, girls you deserve it! I love you all so much! Here's some pics below of my night. Hope you all have a lovely day and rest of the week.

Sincerely Cheryl. :3

Bubbles!!! :D


I love this candle that Mattie gave me. It smells amazing! *_*

This is an amazing bible study! I recommend it to everyone. It's one of my favorites. ^_^
I feel so refreshed!

My hair feels so soft! :3

Marble Sounds - The Time To Sleep

Love love LOVE this song and music video.  :)  It's so simple but has a lot of emotion.

I Want To Be There For You

I've been feeling really down lately and sad... I feel left out and out of the loop with everyone. I feel like a really crapy friend, and I know I haven't been there for all my friends like I should have been this whole past school year. I don't know when life got so busy for me, or when things started to change, when I changed, but they did... but really I guess I let it get that way... I chose to work at the job I'm at, I chose to take on the long hours, It's my fault. I made all the decisions in my life. But I want to make a change right now, I want to be a better friend, I want to be there for my friends. I want to be someone they can come to and talk to about anything, at any time of day. I'm going to work harder guys... Please forgive me for all the times I wasn't there when you needed me... please forgive me for not being the best friend I should have been, for not being honest or open with you about things. I love you all dearly, and I'm going to make a change today. Mattie, Meghan, Becky, Sable, I am really really truly sorry from the bottom of my heart. Love you all dearly like sisters.

Sincerely, Cheryl

The Journey Begins

I can't tell you much about this place... because I don't know what happened here... just one day the winds stopped, and then our way of life was over... These wheels have stopped turning, and the once rich soil I used to plow is now turned to ash beneath my feet. It's blistering hot, and I feel no peace in my bones. I can't stay here for long... I am the last, and I am lonely. I don't know what time it is, and I have lost track of the days. I've decided this is my last entry for now. I'm packing my belongings tonight, and I'm setting out to find the truth come mornings first light. I've never left this place, this is the only home I've ever known. I don't know what I will face once I step forth out of the valley. Dragons, wizards, thugs perhaps, or even more stranger mysteries than I can even fathom. I'm terrified, and I have packed a sword and a bow just in case. Though I pray I will never have to use them. I have little money, and even less food and water. Hoping to find a spring to refill up my jug soon. Once I take rest I will wright again. Take heart my friend journal, and wish me luck. May my pen meet your paper again... It is time to take action.
Sincerely, Basil Kairos

Will You Praise Your Lord?

Please listen to this song as you read this post. ^_^

There are often days when I'm driving to school that I look over at the beautiful sun rising. The clouds are pink and orange, and look like far off kingdoms... and out of no where I get this sudden urge to want to pull off the side of the road, to climb up on top of my car, turn and feel the warm sun shinning on my face, and I want to close my eyes for a moment then open them, raise my arms up high and just take time to praise God!!!! Praise him for all he's done for me, for the new day! The beautiful sunrise!!!!!!!! Life gets so busy.... that I don't even have time to do that... To praise God! :( Or I'm scared of, what if someone drives by and sees me worshiping on top my car? 0.o What will people think? Or what if I'm late for school?? Ugh!!! Seriously guys, one of these days I'm just going to do it! I'm going to pull off the side of the road, climb on top my car, and just do it!! Worship God!! Stop time and all worldly things just for even if its a few minutes... God deserves so much more than that. This song I found today... it really moved me as I sat listening to it in my room. I want to listen to this song when I pull off the side of the road. It reminds me of heaven and of life; and how important it is to praise God.

I've been feeling sad lately... because life just pulls me down so much sometimes that I just want to give up. On Wednesday I just cried in my car because I felt depressed and that I had no control over my life. And on top of it, that morning I woke up with a huge ugly cold sore on my lip. They take up to 14 days to go away, they are very painful, and usually cause scaring... so for the past few days I've been feeling really down and ugly... but on thursday I called in sick and took a day off for myself... because I just desperately needed it. It helped me a lot because it reminded me that I do have control of my life. I don't have to work at the bank, but I choose to. But anyway, just listening to this song today really inspired me to write this and share it with all of you. Life is hard some times, but always remember we have a God, a savior who loves us. We are his daughters, and he only wants good things for us. We need to trust in him and his timing. I'm thinking of getting a different job this summer that has less hours so I can start something I've been feeling called to do. It's a secret though, so I will share what it is with you all soon. ;) But I feel God starting to lead my down a new path. :) And I feel other things are opening up too. This year is going to be a year of change. It's scary, but maybe once I actually face those new things, it wont be so bad as what I make it out out to be in my head. :) Any way! I love you all, and you are all in my prayers. Don't give up my sisters in Christ! God has great things instore for those who love him.

Love you all! Sincerely your friend and sister, Cheryl. ^_^

Hello lovelies! Sorry it's been a long time since a post! I miss you all dearly.... :( I wish we weren't all so busy... I feel like I never get to see you. :( How is everyone doing? Oh, and I have great news! I found out today I can go to Nakacon!!! They finally approved it. I was really getting worried there for a bit. >_< But yes! I can go! I'm so excited!!!! so I have some news though... haha.. ehehe.. well guess what, it turns out that my cousin, aunt and uncle live like 12 mins away from Nakacon! X_X yeah! haha! crazy right! well they want to see me, so my cousin is going to pick me up Sunday morning and take me to go to her church. :) I'll only be gone till probably noon... but still... thats time I'm missing out with you all... but I do want to see my cousin, aunt, and uncle, and I probably should definitely see them since I'm like right there. lol >_< and it will also be nice to go to church. :) But yeah... just wanted to tell you all that.

I'd say yes. =^.^= I would... I love Tiger so much. I'd be scary and a lot of new changes might be happening within the next year or so... but I think I'd be ready to face it all with Tiger. :) Is that crazy? Do you think I'm too young, or that we should wait? >_< I mean even if he did propose we probably wouldn't get married for another year or so. So... it definitely wouldn't be anytime soon. But yeah... just wondering what you all thought about it. But haha no worries, it may not mean anything, he may not even pop the question for quite a while. lol! XD So we will see..! <<

Product Review for December

Ok so I haven't done one of these in a while. So I thought I would today! ^^ Here are some of the products I've been using this month, and I'll give my feed back good and bad on each product. :) Hope this is fun to read and that it helps you all out.

Ok the first product is an eyeliner called Maybelline New York (Master Precise) The first thing I can say about this eyeliner.... is DON'T GET IT! It's terrible, probably one of the worst eyeliners I've ever used. It smears like no other. I dont even touch it is and just goes all over, on the top of my eye lid, all around the corners of my eyes. Its messy, and oily feeling, and it just does not stay on your eyes good. While it has a good tip for painting on your eye lid, it doen't stay. I haven't had much luck with Maybelline (New York) so I dont think I'm going to try any more of their products for a while.

The second one is the Estee Lauder eye liner pencil. Well I loved this eyeliner, I'm actually almost out of it! It stays on my eyes great, its long lasting and barely smudges at all. It draws on nice and easy, i dont have to apply much pressure at all. I deffinetly recomend this eye liner. :)

Next is the Revlon perle black eye shadow. This eye shadow is really pretty.... but its smudges really badly, and doesn't blend well. If you can apply only a little its a little more manageable to work with, but if you want dark smokey eyes, and just gets all over the place.

Next is Olay professional PRO-X deep wrinkle treatment. I LOVE this product and I recommend it to everyone who's starting to see some unwanted wrinkles on their face and or who also want to prevent any further wrinkles from appearing. I've been using it only a couple of weeks and I've seen great improvements on it decreasing the appearance of wrinkles on my forehead. >< This wrinkle cream is really light feeling, doesn't feel super oily and makes my skin feel really soft and smooth.

Lastly is the three step repair Proactive set. My boyfriends mom gave me some to try out. So far, i'm not seeing the results I was hoping for with this product, mainly because so many people say it works for them. I think though I have very bad skin... I often break out wit huge systic pimples under and around my jaw line that hurt very badly. I've always had bad skin for as long as I can remember. But I will say that proactive has helped a lot, it keeps the painful acnie at bay for the most part, and has cleared up my skin a lot, although I still break out every now and then with the painful acne. I do recommend this product. I think I just have to find something even stronger then proactive to help me. ><

Any way, thats it! hope that was helpful! tell me what you think in a comment below! Thanks guys! Have a great day!
