Is it slightly pathetic that I have trouble updating my blog at times other then when a prompt is given to me?A tinsy bit.
But I' working on it, I'm on step 3 of the blog recovery process: I accept my struggles and issues with no prompt blogging. See, there, I said it ha.
So lets take the easy way out and get down to it!
1. Dunkin' Donuts K-Cups: Its official, I AM obsessed with Dunks but I think as long as I embrace it its totally fine - except for the fact that I'm from the midwest and there are literally NO Dunks within a 200 mile radius of where I attend school - SO HELP ME GOD. But I'm getting by solely on the very amazing Dunkin' Donuts Keurig cups! It's like a tiny pick me up in very little pod. Since Swimmer Smanger was so generous as to bring her Keurig individual cup coffee maker to our house this year, I am able to freely make as many cups of my beloved Dunkin coffee as I want. (Guilty of only drinking: French Vanilla and Hazelnut). On a side note of this WIL, one of my other roommates, we'll call her "Wedding Watcher" (since she's obsessed with wedding shows), asked me the other day if I could tell a difference in taste between caffeinated coffee and decaf coffee.. I may or may not have laughed at her and said "Well I survive by caffeine, soo.." She got the picture. I am a caffine addict. De-Cafe my... tushie (God I hate that word.)2. WhatsApp: Do I like to blog about iPhone apps? You betcha. But I also like to only blog about apps that are genuinely wonderful and life-altering (as life-altering as a cell phone app can be..). Really though. Do you have friends studying abroad this semester? Friends with a Blackberry and you have an iPhone and all they do is talk about BBM and you feel left out? (Sorry, that was a run on sentence, but I feel strongly about it since I'm a Blackberry convert) Well this little app will solve all our cross-continental and jealous Blackberry problems. WhatsApp costs a measly 99 cents and allows you to unlimitedly SMS message your friends and family in other countries, or friends with Blackberrys! You can even created cross phone brand chats! (HINT HINT Sara and Lindsye!) I've become so obsessed with it because my best guy friend is currently in Australia and we were using twitter direct messaging for awhile.. that was terrible, so we both invested in WhatsApp. It's been a lovely change. Even better aspect of this genius app? It lets you see when the other person is typing, if they've read your message(s), and the last time they opened the app! It might sound creepy, but let's be real, most of us are a little bit creepy (Facebook stalking much?)
And heres a screenshot: It looks just like regular iPhone SMS texting, AND you can set whatever background you want to your messages.. HOW FUN!

3. Spiked Apple Cider: Now that I'm 21, and its fall, I feel like I can mention drinks that I'm loving! Yay! (PSA: Now I am of course not promoting underage drinking - you must only drink alcohol legally, at age 21.) I had this drink for the first time last weekend at IU (Indiana University, for those newbies) and quickly became a fan of it. Sad thing? You can't drink too much, not because you'll obviously become intoxicated, but because it's such a sweet drink - meant mostly for sipping, but delicious nonetheless. I can't recall the exact recipe of the lovely drink from last weekend, but I'm pretty sure Rachael Ray can't do that bad of a job, so here's her recipe:

4. Game Show Network: Last but not least, over the past few weeks, those of us living at the Kandy Shoppe (It's what my roommates and I decided to name our house - most houses on campus have silly names - don't ask how we came up with ours..) have taken a very strong liking, or should I just come out and say love, for the Game Show Network. I'm going to be honest, the last time I watched GSN before this year was probably when I was 10 or 11 and absolutely loved the game LINGO where they.. well never mind, it was just a long time ago. BUT NOW, wow, they have some great shows. Remember Whose Line Is It Anyway? well they have a spin off of that called Improvaganza and its about 30 times better (hard to imagine, right? NBD, it's still hosted by Jim Carrey.. #gottalovehim). Then they've got this great show called Baggage. Its about as addicting as the Bachelor/ette. It's a dating show hosted by the one and only Jerry Springer. On the show, contestants decide which of 3 prospective love interests is carrying the least offensive load of "baggage" aka: psychological drama and pesky personal habits (One guy had 6 girlfriends who didn't know about each other - And he was on TV to get another one.. like, EXCUSE ME?) once the contestant choses a love interest out of the three, he or she must reveal their own biggest piece of "baggage". This may sound like the strangest game show since.. well most game shows are strange, but I promise you its addicting.. Not to mention Improvaganza comes on right after Baggage. Oh, Happy day!Gosh I'm loving four random things this week - Oh well!
What is everyone else loving this week? Any new beauty products - because I have a serious new desire to go purchase new make up... #Imnotworriedaboutit but my bank account is.
Until next time boys and girls,
PS: Sorry for the novel under each thing I'm loving, I guess I'm just really excited and want to share everything, and I mean everything ha
