Well....Well... Spring break has come and gone along with my mind. Why have I lost my mind? Well to be frank I never had one, but maybe the fact that I had three cups of caffeine this week or that I almost died twice might contribute a bit. Who really knows? I don't.
At the beginning of the week it was great! I didn't have school. I saw my friends. But I also had an asthma attack and well that puts a real downer on the situation. I mean it was only inconvenient for the night, but oh my goodness are they annoying. You're probably picturing me wheezing and coughing like some possessed hyena (ahh what a mental picture) but no. My asthma takes the more silent approach. When I have near death situations I become quiet and calm which is ironic because even though yes I can pretend to be calm, I am never.. ever.. quiet. I probably won't even be quiet when I'm dead. You might be thinking, "but Cherry thats not possible.. you're dead?" Girl I'll record myself reading coupons if thats what it takes to talk beyond the grave. You can't get rid of me that easy. I'll haunt your cabinets.
A few days after my first near death experience I made a trip to my salon. Now first of all I love going to the salon. They make you feel beautiful and pampered. Oh its wonderful! However I was planning this trip to just be short and sweet. No hair dyeing or root touchups just a trim. Snip Snip and then boom out of there just like a drug deal. It was supposed to be a simple easy trim but I came across a factor that I could not account for.. caffeine.. You see the night before I had been with my friends and I stupidly thought it would be a good idea to get a frape... ya know.. just a little caffeine to get me through the night.....There is a reason I do not drink caffeine... I can't handle caffeine just ask my friends. They will attest to what happens to me on caffeine. Its not pretty. I can't be trusted on it. So anyways I am driving to the salon all determined while listening to One Direction of course. I'm not superstitious its just I have to listen to them on the way to the salon otherwise I'll get a bad haircut. I'll be 90 and still be jamming to some 1D on the way to the salon. But I don't care. I don't take chances with my hair. But anyways like I was saying I was on a mission to get a trim but the moment I turned my vehicle into the salon driveway something came over me. It was like I was hit with the Holy Spirit. (It it was probably the caffeine,) But I needed to dye my hair! So I did. Black and violet. Its mainly just black with a little violet in to keep it rich. I also then had another cup of caffeine at the salon because why learn from your mistakes if you can just repeat them? Just another day kids just another day.
So this all leads to my second near death story. Today it was nice and sunny out and sometimes in the sun my hair looks a bit violet. So as I was walking to my mode of transpiration, the Buick aka grandpa cruiser, I was trying to turn my head to look at my hair, but since it was kinda windy it was a bit difficult. So there I am looking like an idiot trying to see what color my own hair was (while still struggling to get to my car) when this car next to me starts pulling out an almost hits me! I could have died! I mean granted he was probably only going 2 mph at this point but still I could have been incapacitated! I was just minding my own business looking at my hair and I almost died! That would have been it. I would have died just walking to my car because I got distracted by my own hair... not someone else's hair.. no my OWN hair.. And y know what.. I didn't even figure out what color hair I had... what a waste of a near death experience.. This is why I need adult supervision. This is my life kids.
Well thats all I have fore today Loves,
Queen Diva Out.

Maybe it's not Maybelline
Dear Divas. Today I wanted to take a moment from the sass, sarcasm, and beauty reviews that are my blog and share with you something different. Something I have thought a lot about. Makeup. Should we or should we not wear makeup? Does it ruin a woman's self esteem? Are we lying by "covering up" our faces?
To find the answer to this question, we first must explain what the purpose of makeup is. Makeup was created to enhance the natural beauty of a woman. That means that the beauty is already there, it is just accentuated a little more. It doesn't hide beauty or mask a person's face. It can't change the bone structure of your face or make you have a smaller nose. It is simply powder that you put on in the morning and wash off at night.
I once read an article that said to marry a woman who does't wear makeup. They explained how a woman who didn't wear makeup knew what she wanted out of life, and was more confident than a woman who did wear makeup. Because clearly a woman who doesn't chose to cover her face with cosmetics is better, right?
False.
Makeup is not the problem. Makeup has never been the problem. Cosmetics are just cremes and powders we apply to our faces. They can't change our DNA or who we are as people. If you are a sweet and funny person without makeup on you will still be that same sweet and funny person with it on. And if you are mean nasty human being without makeup... Honey.. there isn't a concealer in this world that could cover up an ugly soul. Who you are is who YOU are. Foundation can't change that. It doesn't have that power. And to say that a woman who doesn't wear makeup is more confident is absolute rubbish. I wear makeup a majority of the time, and I will be just as fierce and fearless as the confident woman who doesn't wear makeup. Because who I am is based on how I treat other people and how I choose to react to the situations that I am. Not on my eye shadow choice.
As I've gotten older I've started describing people as beautiful more often. But I wasn't talking about their physical appearances. I was talking about their heart and soul, who they chose to be. I know plenty of beautiful women who choose not to wear makeup. I also know plenty of beautiful women who chose to wear makeup. Their beauty is something deeper than what the eye can see. It is more precious and unique than any physical beauty could ever be.
So if makeup isn't the problem what is? What is ruining a woman's self esteem?
We are. People blame it on society and pop culture, but people forget that we are what makes society. If we want change, we have to make change. Change starts at home, not in magazines or t.v. shows. Because the truth is pop culture gives us what we want. We are not blind sheep who have no will of our own. We are human beings who have the ability to tell corporations this is not what we want or what we want our daughters to be told. Once people stop buying into the lie that our beauty is defined by whether or not we wear what comes from a bottle, pop culture will stop as well. It gives us what we have told them we wanted. So it time to make a change.
How have we gotten so far that we judge people on something so irrelevant as whether or not they wear makeup? If you don't like wearing makeup, don't let anyone force you to wear makeup. And if you wear makeup don't let anyone tell you makeup is just a mask that superficial and insecure people wear.
So to the dear parents out there who are concerned that their daughter might get caught up in the nasty lie that makeup makes a person beautiful, teach your daughter that beauty can't be defined by a bottle. But neither does whether or not they wear what comes from the bottle. Don't teach them that when they look in the mirror all they see is beauty. Teach them that no matter what they are wearing or how they look, that when they look in the mirror all they see is themselves, because that is this most beautiful thing a woman could ever be.
Stay Beautiful,

The One with a Deer, Keys, and a Cold
Dear Divas. Winter is here...... and it has brought its blustery breath and white tears with it..... There is no escaping winter when you live in the frozen tundra of Wisconsin. No escaping. You might be thinking but its only November it can't be that bad yet.. and well you're right its not that bad yet. We did have a high of 16 degrees fahrenheit today...so it could be worse. (Trust me it can be.. it got to -50 last winter.... aye nature hates Wisconsin.)
So you may be wondering what have I been doing with my life lately. Well the usual.. ya know working the sass, being fabulous, and running over deer. Nothing too spectacular. And yes you did read that right. I ran over a deer. You may be questioning how did you run over a deer? Like I said I live in Wisconsin ok anything is possible when it comes to deer here. (They and those stupid geese rule the roads.) So no I did not hit the deer. I ran it over. For me to hit the deer that would have meant the deer would have been standing and to have been standing the deer would had to have been alive...........it was not.......not at all.... It was 5:30 in the morning and I was on my way to work. I'm driving along having as grand of time as you can have at that ungodly early in the morning and then all of a sudden bam! Massive speed bump. If there was ever a doubt that the deer was still alive.. there isn't now.. It's like they say,"If you're going to hit something, you might as well it hard."
Next on my list of failures is getting locked out of my car. Yep, did that. And there isn't really exciting story other than I was up way too early so I wasn't really thinking and left my keys in the car. And I think my dad is really done with my existence because not only did he have to pick me up from the deer fiasco he had to drive to my work so he could unlock the car. And I think he is just generally done with my existence now that we have a dog. (Yes I am being upstaged by and English Mastiff/ Great Dane puppy mix... this is the life of a youngest child.) I mean he's raised three other children I feel like by the time our parents get to the last one there like, "eh this is old news... as long as they haven't killed themselves or someone else doing something stupid they're fine."
Last on my list of failures was getting sick. I am slowly but surely becoming a hot mess of reaching one new low after another. (My life in a nutshell.) Now getting sick wouldn't have been that bad if I hadn't already had plans to go a concert and had chorus music due. It was such an inconvenient time. And I found it weird because I never get sick this early in flu season but whatever.. I survived. However there was no way I wasn't getting to let sickness get in the way of concerting. I love going to concerts even if I don't know the artist very well. A concert is a concert. Oh and to you two 15 year old girls who were standing in front of me at the concert.....in what world is wearing 5 inch stilettos to a concert a good idea........ like.... I was judging. I may have been sick, but I am never to sick to silently judge. (Seriously who wears stilettos to a concert.. a concert?!) Anyways after the concert I spent the next 2 1/2 days in bed... it was great. I got a lot of quality time in with Netflix. You could say our relationship is on a deeper emotional level with all the time we spent together... ahhh love. But finally after a few days my voice returned and well now I'm here. Oh joy.
Till next time my divas.. Queen Diva out.

The Warm and Fuzzies
Hello my dears! How are we today? It's beautiful Sunday today which makes it a perfect day to relax. I am watching Princess Diaries 2 while Odin (my puppy) sleeps at my feet. There are few better ways to relax than watching Chris Pine *insert heart eye emoji* try and steal the crown from Anne Hathaway. And of course who doesn't love the Queen and Joe's relationship.
"I look like a moose!!"
"But a very cute moose. Make all the boy moose go WHAAAA."
Life can get a little busy and we forget about the world around us. But sometimes people remind us that not all humanity is bad. The other day I went out to lunch at this yummy Italian place with one of my friends. It was a nice day so we decided to eat at one of the outside tables. Since it was lunch time the place wasn't too busy yet since they are more of a popular night time restaurant. However outside there was a table of 3 women in there 20-30s and another table of a couple and their daughter who looked like she was about 4-5 years old. My friend and I didn't really notice the girl too much since we were being attacked by bees and when we got there the family was almost done and ready to leave. But a few minutes after the little family left I over heard the table of women next to me talking to the waitress asking if they could pay for that table's check. The waitress was a bit confused on how to do that since the couple had already paid and left, but she got her boss to void the check and let the women pay for the meal. When she asked why the women wanted to pay for the check one of the ladies said that you could tell that the little girl had cancer by the fact that she was wearing a hat and had a large bottle of hand sanitizer and just her physical actions. The lady went on to say that her father in law had just died (or was diagnosed I couldn't catch that part) from cancer, and she wanted to honor him and help this family by doing something even though it was small like paying for their meal. My heart just burst with warmth and respect for this woman.
The greatest thing about it is that the woman didn't do it for the praise from the couple. They had already left and might not ever realize that they got there lunch paid for by a complete stranger. But they don't need too. My faith in humanity was restored a bit that day. And I hope maybe this little story made you feel a little warm and fuzzy inside. I know it made me feel that way. And maybe it will remind us to look around at other people before we get so suffocated in our own.
Well my divas until next time. I hope you have a fabulous rest of the day. Queen Diva out.

P.S. I got this candle from ShopKo. It's called Autumn Hayride. It smells soooo good and I love it! I love candles in general. I mean I really love candles. I burn them almost every night before I go to bed. There is just something about candles that is so calming. Ahhhh relaxing candle bliss.

Favorite Things
Hellloo Divas!! Today I thought I would make a little post about a few of the things I have been loving lately! Of course there is more things I am loving at the moment, but I just wanted to share only a few.
One of my favorite things without a doubt is my new laptop! Its a Macbook pro with retina display. It's wonderful. I wish everyone used Apple it would make the world so much better. I love the fact that the laptop is very light weight and extremely portable. The screens graphics area also amazing! The only thing I don't like is the fact it doesn't have a cd drive.. So thats a bummer but overall I love it!

So thats a bummer but overall I love it!
My combat boots!! I love these shoes. I purchased them at Forever 21. (The only thing I have ever purchase from there.) They make me feel down to business and ready to take on anything. It is wonderful! They have a zipper on the side which makes it easier to get your shoes on and off. The tongue has little tiny silver studs on it. These shoes are pretty comfortable too as long as you wear the right socks because then you might end up with a blister.. not that I'm speaking from experience or anything....ha..ha..ha.
Steve Madden!!!! Oh how I love Steve Madden shoes! These are my favorite. I love them. They're such beautiful shoes. They are suede with little silver diamondy like studs. The suede is a blush color. Its fabulous. I love them. A lot. I don't if I've mentioned that.
This perfume oh how I love it. You, Elizabeth and James Nirvana in black, are a wonderful fragrance. These scent is a little bit of a musky sophisticated scent. If you like more of a sweeter scent there is a white version thats a bit lighter. The black version isn't too heavy though. (If you mix the two together you get one amazing scent.) The bottle I have is only the travel size in case you were not sure.
Klorane dry Shampoo is a life saver! I love it. I received it in my Ipsy bag and I was excited to try it since at the time I was in desperate need of dry shampoo. I spray it at the roots of my hair and hairline on my neck. It gives life to your hair when you haven't had a chance to wash it. It'll give ya that little oomf your hair needs to look fabulous.
I've started this new thing where every night before I go to bed I make myself a cup of homemade hot coco, lights some candles in my room, and turn on netflix or youtube.. and Ahhhh the relaxing begins. I LOVE candles and having them in your room is just so cozy! It makes you feel warm and stress free. So if you've had a stressful or busy day take some time and relax with some coco or tea with some candles and netflix, you'll be comfy and rested.
So my dear Divas if you want to see more posts like this one or have anything you'd like me to talk about just leave a comment. Don't forget to follow and share! Love you. Queen Diva out.
Stay Beautiful,

MMHMMM
Hey Beautiful! So You're probably thinking where have you been? Well I've been here just busy and well uninspired. I couldn't think of any topics I wanted to write about. However I am back with a few ideas and I am ready to go! I should probably fill you in on a few things that have happened.
College... that happened. I'm only in my second week but I already have questions like.. "what?, why are we doing this?, and can I drop out to help feed my shopping addiction?" ( Yes I have seriously considered dropping out of school so I could have money to shop. Don't judge me ok. We all have our struggles.) I mean what is college? Just an extension of the tyranny called high school where all of sudden we have to shell out thousands of dollars and a kidney just to attend. .. Please I'm so over it.
Work..yep. So if you are like me, struggling but somehow surviving, you have a job. Thats essentially all I did this summer. Work. Sounds like a party right? You have no idea. You would think with all the work I would be rolling in dough but no.. because I am a college student. Ahh the glamorous life a college student leads.
Vacation.. yes. So at the end of the summer a few friends of mine and I went on a mini little trip to Chicago. It was a fun time. We walked the city. Road on a boat through the city. Went to a concert. We are pretty much high class sophisticated people. We think so at least. We also had this really good stuffed cheese pizza! Yummy! You know us Wisconsinites love our cheese! However Chicago you really need to work on your directing of traffic when there is a concert. Also dear Soldier Field employee whose job is to show people to their seats and rudely asked us if we could read and didn't help us at all.. if we were at Lambeau we wouldn't have had to ask for help! Seriously I could not believe how rude. We weren't the only people who couldn't figure out how to get to your seats. And You charged us $50 to park! To park for 4 hours.. at Soldier field... ugh. However the trip over all was very enjoyable. Chicago is a lovely city.
Well my dear divas for now I must say goodbye. But expect another post in the next few days. And don't forget to follow, share, and tell your friends to follow! Love you all! Queen Diva out.

Freedom
Hello Loves! Are you feeling divalicous today? And if you haven't been why aren't you?! Work it. Strut what the good Lord gave you. Because girl you are fabulous! I mean not as fabulous as me, but well you know.. you're pretty fab.
Today for the first time in years I have to co-habitate with all of my siblings. I mean yes they have come back to visit my parents and I since the two oldest got married and the 3rd went away to college, but we haven't all stayed in the same house in probably close to 5 years. Am I ready for this? I am the youngest and it took me a lot of work to get rid of all of them and now they are just coming back! Don't get me wrong I love my siblings. Its just that I've grown accustomed to being able to sleep in whatever room I choose too. My choice of sleeping in 5 rooms went down to one..my own. And thats just.... so not fabulous.
Being the youngest is a great thing.. and sometimes annoying. I mean its great because sometimes you get to do stuff your older siblings didn't get to do.. but yet no one appreciates your witty remarks or fabulous behavior because most of the times people forget about the last child. "You must be so proud of Rusty, Anna, and Josh for all they accomplished. oh you have another child named Cherry? oh how unfortunate." Like I am standing right here people! And how can one forget about me?! I am marvelous!
One of the great things about my sister coming is that my little nephew is here too! As I am typing this I'm holding little Reno (wren-o its my nickname for him) as we blog and watch Mulan together. I'm teaching him the ways of the Diva. It is our responsibility to train the young, and I am just doing my small part in making sure my nephew knows how to be sassy and classy. Its the simple things.
The second great thing about them being here is that it means my graduation party is almost here! I am finally graduating from this horrendous experience known as high school. People say its the easiest part of your life because you don't have responsibilities. I mean sure.. its great not having to pay a mortgage but do you think its easy having to attend classes with a bunch of hormonal induced citizens who think the FFA is the coolest and greatest thing you could ever be a part of? I mean I just can't help myself from swooning whenever a teenage boy in cameo drives by with a lifted truck and country music blaring. (*note the sarcasm) These people don't need a diploma. They need a fashion intervention!!! But alas my days of high school of tacky social events are over! *diva claps* I am finally FREE!!
Well I am sorry but that is all I have for now!
Blowing kisses to our fearless little divas.
Stay Fearless,
Cherry & Reno
Today for the first time in years I have to co-habitate with all of my siblings. I mean yes they have come back to visit my parents and I since the two oldest got married and the 3rd went away to college, but we haven't all stayed in the same house in probably close to 5 years. Am I ready for this? I am the youngest and it took me a lot of work to get rid of all of them and now they are just coming back! Don't get me wrong I love my siblings. Its just that I've grown accustomed to being able to sleep in whatever room I choose too. My choice of sleeping in 5 rooms went down to one..my own. And thats just.... so not fabulous.
Being the youngest is a great thing.. and sometimes annoying. I mean its great because sometimes you get to do stuff your older siblings didn't get to do.. but yet no one appreciates your witty remarks or fabulous behavior because most of the times people forget about the last child. "You must be so proud of Rusty, Anna, and Josh for all they accomplished. oh you have another child named Cherry? oh how unfortunate." Like I am standing right here people! And how can one forget about me?! I am marvelous!
