So you guys I am super excited for school tomorrow. Granted I am starting online at Kaplan University. I am going for my Bachelor in Science for Early Childhood Development. I have 2 classes this term for 10 weeks. The first class I am taking is College Composition 1 and the other is Preparing for a career in early childhood development. I am pretty sure they will be the worst classes that I will take but maybe not. That is just what my family has informed me of. I want to vlog everyday even if it is a couple minutes because I want to show you guys what it is like. I also just want to be able to look back on it.
I should be getting my Erin Condren planner tomorrow or Wednesday but I am not sure yet. It was supposed to be here by the 22nd but I just tracked it and now it says the 23rd, I am not happy about that because when I ordered it, it said between the 17th and the 23rd. But it is what it is I guess. I am now working off of a new computer which is an ASUS and it is very lightweight. I am enjoying it so far and I think I will be reviewing it on my channel because I really like it a lot. Plus it was a really good deal.
I am seriously having a dilemma though because I can't find my vlogging camera or the one that I prefer to use over my one I film my beauty videos with. I am currently filming a first impression on a foundation that absolutely sucks. So I am going to return it tonight or tomorrow. I had high hopes for it but just no. I need to get all of my school stuff prepared for tomorrow as far as like what folders are for what and what binders are for what. I also need to install my printer to this computer so I can print off my books and anything else I need to print off but I wanted to make cute labels for my folders and binders so I think I will be doing that after I am done blogging.
I was wondering if you guys liked the new look of my blog! I decided to do something more springy and just new. So is everyone being positive lately? I know I am. Today I wanted to ask you guys what is that one thing that always makes you happy no matter what? Mine is a homemade ice coffee. I use Vanilla Almond Sweetened Milk, just a splash of creamer, one packet of blue sweetener, and I have been using a powder mix of chocolate I am not sure what it is called but if I don't use that I will use just black coffee and put that in my magic bullet of course with some ice and then your done!!! That makes me happy no matter what and I always enjoy it.
Have an amazing Tuesday guys. Love you

CAMPUS VOXBOX 2015 + Mini Reviews
Hey guys so I am currently uploading my video for my Campus VoxBox. Which I was extremely excited about!!! I am going to have links to where you can purchase everything here. As well as prices and reviews. So please grab a cup of coffee or tea and come back and read!! DISCLAIMER: I was sent these for review purposes from Influenster but these are my own honest opinions!!
The first thing I wanted to talk about is the Jergens Natural Glow Instant Sun Sunless Tanning Mousse. Mine is in the shade Deep Bronze. This retails for $12.99 and I definitely think that this is worth the price. The color is pretty much perfect for me and I am very light so most tanners look very orange on me. This does not, it gives me a natural golden bronze tan and the Deep Bronze is really great. I am thinking of doing an application DEMO video of this product so if you are interested in seeing that let me know here or on my video and I will definitely do one. The only thing I find is that it does stain you hands if you don't wear a mitt like most anyway so be sure to wear gloves to keep that from happening as well.
Next is the St. Ives Blemish Control Apricot Scrub and this retails for somewhere between $3.99 - $4.79. Now in the past I used St. Ives regular Apricot Scrub and I loved it!! But I was very excited to see this because it was a blemish control formula which is great for me. This contains Salicylic Acid which is great for my skin and this works literally overnight I was so impressed. Now I only recommend that you use this 2 times a week since this is a deep exfoliant. But if you want to work this onto problem areas only then you should be okay to use this everyday. But only if it is a small area.
Okay so the L'oreal Paris Advanced Straight System I am on the fence about. My hair is naturally wavy and very fine and thin. I did Step 1 which is the shampoo it cleaned my hair okay but it wasn't the best thing to clean my hair. Then I followed up with Step 2 which is the pre-conditioner that you apply it all over your hair, this felt amazing during my shower, it got all of the tangles out of my hair that I normally get. I let that sit for a minute and rinsed and then followed with Step 3 which is the conditioner. I don't really know how well this worked because of the pre-conditioner. I didn't blow dry my hair or style it I just let it air dry while I slept and when I woke up my hair was straight but kind of weighed down. So I'm not sure how I like it. I am tempted to try it again but just the pre-conditioner. The shampoo and conditioner retail for $4.99 each and the treatment retails for $6.99.
This product if probably one of my favorite things I received and that is the Softlips Cube in Vanilla Bean. This product retails for $3.49 and it is amazing. I can't even begin to describe how great it is. I ultimately believe that it is better than EOS by 100%. If I lick this product it still is there and it keeps moisturizing. The flavor is pretty good but I know lip products aren't meant to eat but this one I am having second thoughts about that haha!!! It has an SPF of 15 and I love this. I can't even begin to tell you. There just isn't enough words. I am thinking about doing a comparison video with this to the EOS lip balms, should I? Let me know!!
Finally the next 2 things are pretty much the same just in 2 different forms. I received the Sour Punch Punchies which are just soft chewy candies these retail anyway from $.89 - $1.29. It has a variety of flavors like strawberry,tangerine,lemon.blue raspberry and green apple. The majority are blue raspberry and green apple and I got one tangerine which was my favorite, 4 strawberry ones and a handful of the lemon flavor which is new. So that is my only complaint. The other item was by Sour Punch as well and they were the Rainbow Straws these retail from $1.29 - $1.59. These are my favorite kind of candies and I just love them I have had these before and again it comes in all the same flavors except for tangerine. I really like the Lemon flavor and Strawberry!
Thank you so much Influenster for sending these for my review and I look forward to getting my next voxbox!!!
Love,
Emily

A Bummin' Day
Today I decided to have a a huge bummed day. I filmed a video for you guys and I will be posting it to the blog once it is done processing.
So today I just wanted to sit down and let you guys know about my day. Feel free to tell me how your day was!! Wether you need to vent, get excited, or just kind of be proud of your day you are at the right place so type away down there...1..2..3..GO!
Okay so today I actually signed up for my classes for college that I am doing online. I am going to be attending Kaplan University. The program I am doing is BS in Early Childhood Education. Then I plan on moving on and becoming a teacher for atleast k-3. I am going to be taking preparing for early childhood development career and college composition 1. These courses are going to take 10 weeks and I have seminars every Thursday at 9pm and Wednesdays at 10pm. I don't start until the 22nd of april. I am so excited to start and finally move onto getting my career moving.
Then I had to clean out Koaliee's cage today so I vaccumed off the shelfs and then my vaccum literally stopped working. Which I defintely wasn't happy about. So then I scooped his bedding out and put it in a plastic bag to take out to the trash and then I sprayed his shelves and the very bottom with his half and half water and vinegar mixture. Wiped it down and then added in new bedding gave him more food and water and placed all of his toys back in his cage with him. That took me a good hour or so.
I did my first 3 assignments on my kaplan campus page and basically those were to just get me more familar with the website and how to do certain things.
That is literally my entire day. So how was your guys day? Let me know in the comments so we can chat.
Love ya guys. Thank you all so much for your support.

Hello everyone how have we been?? I thought I would start using my blog a lot more than I have been and I feel terrible because I love all of my supporters and I feel like some of my readers don't always watch my videos or want to watch them which is totally awesome! So I think I want to do some positivity posts and journal on here everyday for you guys! It will be something of the sort but to start this off I wanted to let you know that my new video is up and you can watch it HERE! But also I wanted to have more big discussions on my blog so with that being said lets chat it up all week long!!
My question for you guys is who are you? Now I would really love it if you guys would answer down below but if not that is totally okay! I guess I will start first haha. :)
Who I am...
I am a 19 year old girl who thought she knew what she was going to do with her life and is now realizing that she wants to go another direction but she is also crazy and confused. She is someone who just wants to take life one step at a time and just stop planning everything. She isn't quite there yet but that is her goal!
Now please please please let me know in the comments I would love for everyone to just start a huge conversation about this topic below.
