    Aww this is such a sweet post, I feel like if someone just asked me now like name me 50 things that make you happy I would struggle but when you actually sit down and think about it, it’s amazing how many things come to mind! By the way your drawing is amazing, omg I’d buy it if you turned it into an adult colouring book!

      That is exactly how I felt when I had to think of stuff for this post – at first, I was having a hard time. But then things slowly flooded the list and then I had to prioritize the top 50 🤣 Aww thank you so much, I am so glad you would support my dream to make a coloring book! 🤗😍😊

    Hi Geraldine!
    Great list – it’s incredible how much we have to feel grateful for when we actually stop and think about all of the little things that make us happy as well as the big things too.
    Your drawing in so incredibly intricate, detailed and beautiful! That sort of artwork would make for an awesome adult colouring book.
    I’ve never seen a green tea kit kat over here before but they sound good. I used to really like the Limited Edition Mocha ones they used to make over here.
    Warm blankets are something I have always loved too!

      Thank you so much Hanna! It makes me very happy that you think it’s worthy of being in an adult coloring book 😊 I have never tried the Limited Edition Mocha Kit Kats before … if you like green tea, you will like the green tea kit kats!! You may be able to buy them online 😁 This is a great reminder to be thankful for all the things in our lives – big AND small!! xx

    I love this idea, I wonder if I could think of fifty things that make me happy. I agree with a lot of things on your list though, and it’s such a great way to get to know you better! That sushi made me super hungry!

    I absolutely love this post- it’s so feel good and is perfect for Thanks Giving! Most of these make me happy too, I don’t know what a McDonalds Shamrock Shake is though, I feel like I should!

      Aw thank you Sophie! If you like mint ice cream or anything like that, you’d love the Shamrock Shakes 🙂 I’m not sure if it’s available in the UK but it’s a seasonal item available every St. Patrick’s Day here in the US!

    I don’t think Chelsea or I have had a real bowl of ramen ever in our lives. When I do go to the UK I plan to try some if possible, though, I know I’m a picky eater heh. We can both relate to so much on this list too, and we had a blast filling ours out.

    So many people don’t look at what makes them happy anymore, but I’m glad you do and that you spread that love Geraldine.

    Can’t wait to share ours with yours soon!

      Thank you so much Brian! I think you will like the real Ramen, it’s so delicious and the broth is hearty! It was a bit of a challenge at first but it’s amazing how you start remembering that certain little things made you happy 😁 I can’t wait to read yours!

    You’re so crazy talented omg! I cannot believe you drew that! This list made me happy too. But a green tea kit Kat sounds horrid… But apart from that!!!

      HAHAHA Totally get it girl! I know Green Tea Kit Kats aren’t for everyone! I’m crazy about anything matcha / green tea so I dig them a lot. Thank you so much!! I’m trying to get back into the groove of doodling 😎

    Wow! The drawing is amazing Geraldine! I could just imagine spending many hours happily colouring that in, you need to create a colouring book, girl! This is such a great post, I love so many things here – sushi, Disney, cats, tea, blogging, to name a few! I love how you appreciate the big things and the little things. Thank you for sharing, such lovely feel-good post <3 xx

So maybe this is Influenster's early Christmas gif So maybe this is Influenster's early Christmas gift to me ?🤣 I got to try this sakura pink metallic color on my hair and as I expected, the color didn't show up as it showed on the box. I said in the survey I have black hair and still some remnants of blonde in my hair, but not much? Still, somehow I got chosen for this campaign 🤣 it DID however turn my roots a nice reddish brown color? The ends where my hair was blonde are purplish pink. I really wish I was back to full blonde so I could try this out! It would look soo pretty. Regardless, even though it didn't work as I suspected, I still appreciate the color tinting 🤭💖 TLDR: it works! But you need fairly light hair for it to work. Even the box says so. 🤣🙈

Hello! 🥰 Long time no see eh? I'm back in schoo Hello! 🥰 Long time no see eh? I'm back in school after a week break for Thanksgiving. I actually got a decent picture of myself during Thanksgiving but forgot to post it hehe 😆 we spent Wednesday night at my cousin's new house for Thanksgiving and then had more Thanksgiving food during Thanksgiving. 🤣 I'm so stuffed but I miss the blueberry pies and pecan pies! They went too fast 😭😭 Also, meet Chewy, my cousin's toy poodle 🥺 isn't he cute? He doesn't wriggle around when you hold him which is the sweetest thing 😍😆

I was kindly given a Care Package Voxbox from @inf I was kindly given a Care Package Voxbox from @influenster because they know I'm gonna be dying now that school has started back up again. 🤪🤪🤣 I am actually running out of toner so I am so freaking glad part of this care package involved the @humphreyswitchhazel toner! I've never tried anything with witch hazel but it's something I'm eager to try. 
.
I don't do much for my hair either so I think Influenster knew I needed to treat my hair with more love. When I have free time this weekend I'll be trying the @garnierusa hair mask and let y'all know what I think! It kinda makes me nervous because my hair gets so greasy but idk maybe that doesn't affect that?? 😆 And of course, super grateful for the @advilrelief because I can never get enough pills in me to treat my headaches cause it's the time for me to apply to universities...🙃 Can you believe it?! I'm graduating community college (again) in may 2021 and will be transferring soon for my bachelor's!! So crazy!🙈

I've been dead in this account and I know it's bad I've been dead in this account and I know it's bad, I honestly sometimes feel like deleting this account but I think of why I started this in the first place and it makes me sad I've kinda left it... But I like to say I'm just moving on to different goals and that's okay! I still don't know what I'll do with this account, maybe I'll leave it open and just post occasional (really it's rarely... honestly, who am I kidding 😂) photos if I'm somewhere exciting and new! Or flower pics 😂

It's been a while since I made a post on here but It's been a while since I made a post on here but I actually bought stuff that I thought was worth mentioning 😂 I splurged a bit and treated myself to a few things and that's also what my new blog post is about! Check the link in my bio to read the post! ❤️
