Outer Banks 2013: Day 9, Saturday June 15th

6:00 AM
We woke up early this morning so me and mom could walk down to the beach and watch the sunrise :)

7:00 AM
Just got back :) we found a lot of really pretty seashells and watched the sunrise behind buildings/over the water ;) 
Now we are getting ready to leave and finishing up our repacking. I got most of my stuff packed up last night, but I have a few things left. I just had breakfast, a Krispy Kreme Doughnut again :)

9:00 AM
Finished packing any getting ready, we just loaded the car, and we are now ready to go! We are on our way up the Outer Banks today, but first we are going to stop off at Emerald Plantation again :)

11:00 AM
We just left Emerald Plantation, and now we are on our way off the Island :( We are heading up the coast to the Roanoke Aquarium, and then on over the Kill Devil Hills to stay a few nights!

4:00 PM
Well instead of going straight to Kill Devil Hills, we ended up stopping at a shopping center in Morehead city... Which kind of messes up our plans to go to the Aquarium today, but who cares! I got to go shopping :) We went to Ross and TJ-Maxx, and then I found an Ulta and I used the rest of an old gift card, and of course we had to hit up a Walmart while we were there! ;) We let my little brother pick where to have lunch, so we ended up at a McDonalds -_-

7:00 PM
At this moment we are driving throught Kill Devil Hills and Nags head looking for our hotel, and I am hungry! ;) I have read and slept for four hours and I am ready to get out of this car and do something! :)

9:00 PM
We ended up eating at Applebees, which was good :) Me and mom shared a three way sampler platter. It had Spinach Dip, Quezon Dip, and Cheeseburger Sliders. This is the first night that we ordered a dessert and ohhhhh my gosh! It was so good! It was Cheesecake filled fried tortillas that had been rolled in cinnamon sugar, and served with cooked apple and ice cream... We ordered it to share but I could have eaten the whole thing by myself!!

11:00 PM
We are back at our hotel and we are all tukered out! The hotel is nice, just a basic hotel room :) well I think I am going to bed... 'night guys! :)

Governor's School!

Well, you would never believe what I have been up to all Summer! I just got back from Governor's school! Which was an adventure in itself...  if you don't know what Governor's School is, it is a special academic program for 5 and 1/2 weeks, for "the best and the brightest" in the state of NC, and I was very honored that I received the invitation to attend! I went for English, so I had one class that discussed Fact vs. Fiction, and another that focused on Creative Writing. I also had an Area II class that focused on Philosophy and Politics, and an Area III class that focused on your beliefs and feelings. Basically, it was a very modern and informal type of school, 6 days a week, and whenever I wasn't in class they kept us extremely busy with performances and seminars!  So as usual, I apologize... I should have posted at some point, but I did not, and there isn't much we can do about it now, so I am very sorry! How about a little peek into wha...

Venus Embrace #ItsNotMe Influenster VoxBox

Guys, I finally got another one!  If you weren't around for the first one I got  (here is the link to the first post) then I will explain what this is again. It is a site you sign up for where you take surveys and write reviews on products to earn points, and once you have enough points they will sometimes send you one of these Boxes! So just a little disclaimer, all of these products were sent to me for testing purposes by Influenster, but the opinions are all my own! So here is the box I received this time, It contained the Venus Embrace Sensitive Razor, an extra blade, a holder that suctions to the wall, and this little card explaining it! This is the little suction cup holder that came with the razor. It sticks to the shower wall, and is made to fit any Venus Embrace Razor Handle. This is the packaging of the extra razor blades. The smart person I am it took me forever to get it out! You just click the handle into it and it pops right out, bu...

Blueberry Crush Sangria

I'm considering a new series on this blog... How would you all feel about wine Wednesdays?  Not every Wednesday of course, but just to mix things up sometimes!  Most all of the drinks I make end up being something I concoct from various ideas and recipes I see online, and then add wine to it, and voilà, wine punch!  And I see a distinct lack of wine punch or creative sangria recipes on Pinterest, so look no further; I'm coming to the rescue! I made this drink recently for a party in which the color theme was purple, so of course we had to have a purple drink!  It was met with much praise, and I highly suggest giving it a try!  It is a very sweet drink, but can be toned down based on your preferences.  It would be the perfect way to bring in Spring!  (If it is actually Spring where you live, we just pretend here, it is still snowing) Ingredients Blueberry syrup: Bag of frozen blueberries (minus 1/3 cup.) 1 cup sugar 3 cups water ...
