About Me

Well I let you ladies (I’m assuming most of you are ladies) decide what my next post should be, and you chose yours truly. This is also a perfect chance to introduce myself to visitors from Beauty By Krystal. How old are you? I am going to turn 22 on January 3rd. What do you do? I work as a caregiver, and I’m an accounting student, although I’m considering going to cosmetology school. What do you do in your spare time? I read, write, watch TV, Google random beauty topics and videos on YouTube, and any random hobby that catches my interest. Have you really made a Café Mocha Vodka Valium Latte? Not yet. What was the last...

Happy Holidays!

I’ve been relaxing this holiday season and I hope you are doing the same. By “relaxing”, I mean drinking lots of hot chocolate with Baileys and hazelnut liquor. I’m trying to get into the swing of blogging again but I have been “relaxing” quite a bit! If anyone has any requests or random questions to ask, feel free to drop me an e mail at lunacyandbestwishes@yahoo.c...

"I'm Canadian"

I’m not actually Canadian. I’m half British, but that doesn’t really count. I went to Vancouver once on a day trip. I even briefly dated a hockey playing guy from a place that I can’t even spell. . . No wait, I just crossed the border into Creepy Town and looked him up on FB. I can totally spell Alberta. Back to the point. Lately outside of the major stores in the area, are a bunch of guys asking to sign a petition. I don’t want to sign anything. Signing a lease on an apartment was difficult for me, so something that could turn into a law and possibly affect millions of people, not cool. If it was a petition for rescuing...

Do I Have A Soul?

Who started the trend about redheads/gingers having no soul? I’m curious because I have a question to ask them. I didn’t think about this until just today, but my Grandmother was a ginger. She dyed her hair blonde most of her life, but she had a mane that rivaled Carrot Top’s…Okay I feel bad comparing her to Carrot Top, I’ll say Christina Hendricks instead, even though CH isn’t a real readhead. So since my Grandma Francess had the same color hair as Christina Hendricks, does that mean that I only have 75% of a soul? Will this explain all my questionable decisions? Will this explain my wacky state of mind? Is 25% of me...

World War Z

I’m pretty convinced that, hopefully not in my lifetime, the Zombie Apocalypse will happen. I’ve studied The Zombie Survival Guide to know how to survive. I’ve also read World War Z and know the devastating physical, emotional, and environmental effects of said war. (I also wrote a badass English essay about those effects as well!) Without Max Brooks’ words of wisdom and common sense, I would be hopeless. But anyways back to my random thought of the day. . .I live on a ground floor apartment, if Resident Evil: Real Life should occur, I would be a goner. In every room of my apartment, with the exception of one bathroom,...

Things I Love During The Holidays

-A tall glass of hot chocolate. -A tall glass of hot chocolate with peppermint schnapps. -Watching Shemar Moore on Criminal Minds and calling him a tall glass of hot chocolate ;) -Christmas episodes of my favorite television shows. -Watching The Nightmare Before Christmas . . . for about the 100th time. -My 3 foot Christmas tree with lights so bright I think you could see it from outer space. -Making a batch of cookies for myself. . . I mean “Santa” ;) -It’s the only time of the year I can wear green eye shadow and red lipstick at the same time and not look ridiculous. -Making snow angels and wondering why in the...

Santa Baby

I cringe every time I’m forced to hear this song, particularly the Taylor Swift version. I cannot be the only person completely creeped out by this. I’ll explain. . . let us all pretend for a moment that Santa is actually a real person. Now the tone of this song is rather seductive, and in the lyrics, the singer is asking for presents. Are you asking Santa to be your sugar daddy?! C’mon you can do better than that! This guy sees you when you’re sleeping, knows when you get up in the morning, and knows when you’re naughty. I think that crosses some boundaries. On top of that, he breaks into your house while you’re asleep...

I’m Sorry You’re Not Feeling Well

Word on the internet is that a lot of people I know haven’t been feeling so well lately. Although I can’t bring you homemade chicken noodle soup or drug you with copious amounts of Nyquil, I can do one thing. . . and that’s make you smile :D Don’t you dare tell me that you’re not smiling right now! This picture just gives you that warm fuzzy feeling inside (Unless you are really sick and should probably see a doctor). Miss Piggy, Piglet, Piggly Wiggly, Babe, Wilbur, Bacon Bits, Evil Doctor Pork Chop, or whatever decide to name it,...

A Beauty Article for You

It’s probably kind of weird clicking onto my blog from a beauty website, and I have yet to post anything beauty related! Well here it goes. . . I received an e-mail from someone asking advice about how to prevent razor burn. This used to be a big problem for me so I’ve got just the answer for you. My cure for razor burn came from the most unlikely, yet absolutely perfect sources. . . Their names were Barbie and Mercedes. . . exotic dancers paying their way through college. 1. Exfoliate. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy dancy. I just use apricot scrub and a washcloth. 2. Barbie said, “Don’t use shaving cream, use...

Make Your Own Damn Sandwich!

Random thought of the day: why do guys still say, “Make me a sandwich!”? At first when my guy friends would say it, I got a kick out of it. It was funny watching my friends try to act like chauvinistic pigs. But then one day my man at the time said this to me. . . and he was serious. He had 2 hands and half a brain, so why couldn’t he make his own sandwich?! So why do guys still say this? After thinking for a while, I’ve come up with the conclusion that us ladies just don’t have a snappy comeback. Until now. . . -Play dumb: “How? I don’t get it. What’s a sandwich?” -Put him in his place: “I make more money than you, I’m...

Hello My 1000+ Readers (& my 2 subscribers)!

First off, whether you’re visiting from Divorced Before 30 or from The Beauty Department, thanks for stopping by! My modest blog had about 5 views this time last week so right now I have an over inflated ego. This is what Kanye West must feel like all the time! I’m extremely giddy right now (it probably doesn’t help that I just drank about half a gallon of tea). Anyways, my love of everything beauty related started when I was 5 when my parents got me this little pink plastic vanity complete with Mary Kay samples. Screw going to a candy store, I wanted to go to Sephora. From there it just evolved into one of my favorite...

I Should Have A PhD in Procrastination

I definitely feel like a hot mess today. I’m buried by a mountain of math homework (my least favorite subject) and have somehow found myself lost on the internet. I blame this picture for my wondering mind. . . Why am I thinking about ordering a Café-Mocha-Vodka-Valium-Latte?! Would vodka actually work or should I use Bailey’s instead? Can I have caramel too? Will Valium affect the taste? Will this combination make the indie music (that I pretend to not like) inside the local coffee shop tolerable? What is the apprioate alcohol to...

I Believe in Unicorns, Fairies, Good Men, and Other Fantasy Creatures.

My advice for coping with a breakup: 1. Take some time to cry. Not during happy hour or at work! Go home, grab yourself some tissues and just get it out of your system. 2. DON’T: call, text, e-mail, instant message, write on his Facebook wall, tell someone to talk to him for you, put a message inside a bottle and throw it into the ocean, use a carrier pigeon, or contact him in any way, shape, or form. 3. Put on your comfy sweat pants, take out a gallon of ice cream, and commence the best movie marathon EVER! 4. Look up videos of cute puppies and kittens on YouTube. Trust me it works! 5. Trash talk over margaritas with...
