I'm still a tattletale.

I'm going to admit it. I was a tattle tale growing up. It's a very hard thing to grow out of. Then again, now that I think about it, I was just being honest. But just like in elementary school, that honesty wasn't really appreciated. Like the other day when someone was returning headphones because they were a little scratchy. A coworker decided that he would just switch him some new headphones. I was like, whoa whoa whoa. Whoa. This doesn't sound right. And then he wanted me to sign off on the return. Little lights kept going off.

I kept glancing around, looking for my boss but of course, he'd decided to disappear. The customer was getting antsy, my coworker had already started the return. I started to sign the paper, my coworker had to know what he was doing right? And then dun dun dun DUUN! My boss came up the stairs. I called him over. The customer uttered the f word. Instantly I felt like I was back in elementary, telling on someone for something.

But now that I think about it, I was just being honest. I was just trying to do my job correctly. If it was really worth that customer being happy and thinking highly of me for me to be dishonest, then I'm the one with the problem not him.

I'm ok with people still treating me like a tattletale. As long as I'm honest.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Say Yes?

Well. Today I went dress shopping. And it was a really fun experience! I went a few weeks ago, and that wasn't as fun. I almost fainted because everything was so tight! And I looked like a little girl playing dress up. This time though, I felt sophisticated, it was a much better experience, and I may have found THE dress. I know it's one of these ones, but at the store I thought I was going to get one dress. But as I got home and looked through the pictures again, I think another one will work better and is really THE one. I'm going to sit on it though.  I thought it'd be fun to put the pictures up here and let you all see! Tell me which dress is your favorite! If there's two pictures together, it's the front and back.  How was dress shopping for you?  I like the lace and buttons on this dress     Love the top and flowyness of this dress. Really love the neck, top, and ruching on this dress. Not sure about the train though. This...
