Outer Banks 2013: Day 4, Monday June 10th

8:50 AM

Goodmorning Beach Bunnies!
My little brother got up just as early this morning, but I am learning to ignore him ;) I had a Blueberry muffin with Cream Cheese again this morning, we are going to have to make another Food Lion run to get some more of these! They are great! :) My Sunburn is a little better today, the lower half of my legs look normal, but the upper half still look bright red -_-
Today are plans are pretty much the same as yesterday, we are spending the day down at the beach again! :)


1:30 PM
We just came in for lunch :) I had a sandwich, carrots, and Ice Cream! Have you ever had Ben and Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream before?
 It is sooooooo good! :) 
I think we are going back down to the beach for a while, and then over to the pool! :) 
Ttyl!!


4:30 PM
We briefly went back down to the beach... long enough to descover our blanket and chairs had been covered over in sand. It has been a really nice day, but it is so windy! We did most of the same things on the bra h today that we did yesterday. Except today when we caught sand fleas (and the occasional fish) we put them in a bucket to see how many we could get! :)
 Don't worry, we let them go... eventually ;) 
After packing up our sand encrusted beach things, we went and spent a few hours at the pool. My little brother would rather be at the pool than anywhere, so he loved it :)

 I mostly just floated around on pool noodles :)
We just got back to the room, so I am going to get in the shower!

5:45 PM
We all showered and got ready in record time! ;) We are now on our way to a shopping center in Atlantic Beach :)

7:30 PM
Just left the shopping center! A lot of the shops closed at 6, so there wasn't much open. But I did get to go to the bookstore! Which I was very happy about :) 
I got 2 new books...
which makes five total so far for this vacation!
 If you can't tell, I like to read ;) My mom got us some new diving rings/balls sir the pool, and some goggles too! I am truly still a kid at heart :) Now we are on our way to the Channel Marker for dinner!

8:30 PM
Just finished eating and that has been the best meal yet by FAR! I had Crab Spinach Dip.
Isn't it pretty! :)
 I know, I know, I had that last night too... but I was craving it and last night just didn't do it for me ;)



9:00 PM
Decided to stop off at a Wings Beach store on the way home. I got a few of the cute little creaseless hair ties :) I am on the search for some white bathing suit bottoms, and I was sure that they of all places would have some! But sadly, no such luck. The search continues...

12:30 PM
Today I made it to chapter 12 in a book that I just started this morning, which is about halfway through! I'm glad I bought lots of new reading material! :) It has been a really good day overall :)
Boy do Sunburns hurt worse at night.... But we are spending the day off the beach tomorrow, so that should help some :) That also means tomorrow will be more interesting to you all! :) Hope you come back to spend day 4 of our vacation with me! Love you all, goodnight! <3

Bulu Box: February

So I saw a coupon on this Subscription box which would make every box you ever ordered $5 instead of $10, which sounds great right?  Not so my friends... I figured this would be a nice health subscription box with healthy food and workout tips, maybe with a few supplements... It is almost entirely supplements, and I am not a big enough health nut to buy into it all... So needless to say, I canceled, but thought I'd let you know what I received and a couple of the small highlights! The first thing I pulled out was the Vital 4U Fiber Drink which is: "Packed with soluble prebiotic fiber...to promote better gut health and digestion."  These are $12.00 for a 12 pack, and I received two, so basically a $2 value.  I gave these to my mom to add into our smoothies she makes for an added boost, because I didn't want to drink them straight. There were the only things I was SUPER excited about! I love gummy vitamins!  These were the best I had ever tried, with a g...

College Countdown: Basic College Packing List

In this list I'm not going to go over every single thing.  Throughout this week I will do separate posts on Clothing and Makeup etc.  On Saturday of this week I will post a concise version of this including everything mentioned.  For now I would just like to go over basics such as kitchen items, "school supplies" and other items you may not have thought of! Kitchen These are basics that you might need if you are in a dorm and do not necessarily have a kitchen.  I will have a sink, so it will be doable for me to wash dishes as needed.  If you do not have a sink you might consider buying disposable silverware and dishes so you won't have to wash them in the bathroom. Plastic Bowls Plastic Cups Tumblers or Reusable Water Bottles - I recommend this regardless of if you have a sink. Brita Pitcher - The water will probably be different from what you are used to, and this will make the transition easier Ice Cube Trays Plastic Ice Cubes - If the water is jus...

College Countdown: Packing Clothing and Cleaning Out

Let's tackle the packing part first... Instead of folding or rolling all of the clothes which needed to be hung up and carting them to college in a suitcase, I left them on hangers and wrapped a trash bag around them.  Once arriving in my dorm I hung them up, cut off the bags, and everything was great!  Also, if you can guarantee that you won't need your warm winter kind of clothing until after Fall Break, then don't bring it!  Take home summer clothes over Spring Break and bring back any fall clothes (which I'll mark on this list with a * for convenience). Many people on the Internet strictly recommend the thin felt hangers, I have used cheap Walmart hangers and haven't had a problem, so I guess it's personal preference! Dresses Little Black Dress Versatile Skirt "Party" Dress Sunday Dress Shirts Button Downs - Can be worn as light jackets in the spring and fall, or more formally if needed.  I suggest bringing: Denim/Chambr...
