Wedding Updates & Guest Posts

I know this is probably a bit early, but, I need guest bloggers for the week of my wedding! I've really gotten into a blogging groove the last month and want to keep it going even when I'm gone. Whenever my favorite bloggers go on vacation, I get a little sad in the morning not having anything to read. Which is why, I'd like some guest bloggers! The posts would be going up the week of June 7th until I come back from my honeymoon! So, ideally, I'd like about 7 posts but if I get more that's great! Email me or comment if you'd be interested! : ) : ) : )

Speaking of flowers… I've been making flowers for the wedding like crazy the last few days! The goal is to have enough so that guests could take one home but I don't know if that's going to happen. 

We got our cake! It's super cute and super yummy! We're having one of those cute little cakes and then the rest as cupcakes.

Wedding hair. I don't know how to do my hair ever, so I have no idea what I'm going to do. I kind of just want to straighten it honestly and call it good. That's pretty fancy for me! 

We have our wedding rings! Well, not at the moment. My two rings and Sammy's are off getting sized right now. I feel so empty but it;ll be so nice to have a ring that actually fits. That was quite the experience though getting them… I have an enormous accidental charge on my credit card at the moment that I'm waiting to get cleared up. Fun times! 

Sammy just booked a cabin for our honeymoon up in the mountains. I'm really excited because I've never been up to that area! 

I'm freaking out because I've been stress eating and have gained some weight and I was already pushing it with my dress so I don't know what I'm going to do so I'll be able to breathe on the wedding day. 

I can't wait to be married, but at the same time I'm glad it's not happening in the middle of the semester because holy moly I have so many papers due right now. 

And that's about it! :) Oh. Sammy's dad said we need a coffee maker incase he ever comes over in the morning. I still can't figure out why he would ever be at our apartment that early, and if so, why he couldn't make his own coffee before hand. The smell of coffee gives me such a headache, so that will not be happening haha! If he does give us one, I'm going to make hot kool aid in it. Anyone seen this video besides me?

Racism, stereotypes, and plain ole judging

Being in a class dedicated to the idea of migration has really kept the idea of racism on the brain. In elementary school, the idea of racism was so defined to me, thinking people are better than others based solely on the color of their skin. It wasn't until middle school after reading many books that I realized racism wasn't jut as issue of black versus white, rather it applies to all cultures. In high school I was actually shocked to here racist statements from people I loved. All the sudden this issue became personal somewhat. (My favorite statement was from a little girl who said, it should be illegal for Mexicans to have babies. I guess I can't have kids then.)  But it wasn't until last week when we did an activity in my public health class that I realized that I myself was being racist as well. Now, this is something I am not proud of. I'm very embarrassed actually and that activity was humbling. Why am I writing about this? Because, it's som...

Toxic Masculinity

It seems like forever ago that they released that Gilette ad about toxic masculinity. I watched as people I'd grown up with freaked out about it, saying that it said that men need to be like women, and that it condemned masculinity altogether, along with other things. I crafted post after post to write on my social media, but in the end didn't bother writing anything. I didn't feel like arguing with people. But I had to share my thoughts somewhere, so here they are.  To me, toxic masculinity is exactly what it says-- ideals of masculinity that are toxic. It's telling your son that he needs to suck it up and not cry. That he can get away with more than girls because 'boys will be boys.' The idea that he can't read or watch certain media because it's "for girls." At the same time, girls are asked to watch things that are "for boys" all of the time. It's the idea that men need to repress their feelings. That they can't be sc...

Little Bit o Writing Monday

The beginning of my short story for class.  When Dora's son tugged on her pants leg, the last thing she expected was to see him holding a tooth. A tooth that clearly did not belong to him. She was no dentist, but she was smart enough to know the colossal thing couldn't have come from Mark's mouth. “Mark, where did you find that?” Dora scolded. “In the backyard.” “Show me where,” Dora commanded. Excited, Mark ran out to the backyard, Dora following on his heels. He led her over to the back of the yard, to the particular corner that couldn't be seen from the kitchen window. There, her other two children were gathered around a hole in the ground. Hole was an understatement though, they'd obviously been working on this, pit, for quite sometime. If there had been no tooth, Dora would have sat the kids down and explained how digging holes this deep was dangerous because of all the water, electric, and who knows what else lines were under the ...
