Happy First Day of Fall playlist

Fall Playlist

Often I'm asked "Carson, what do you listen to?" my usual reply would be "Anything from Led Zeppelin to movie soundtracks"  Yes, I still download movie soundtracks and listen to them like nobody's business!  So here's what's playing on my ipod this fall...     Ed Sheeran- Don't & Sing F.O.B.- Save rock and roll (entire album) Foster The People- Supermodel  Incubus- Crow left of the murder, Make yourself, Morning View, If not now, when? Ingrid Michaelson- Lights out Jay-Z- Holy Grail Magma Carta  Meghan Trainor- Title The Great Gatsby- Soundtrack Guardians of the Galaxy- Soundtrack The Secret Life of Walter Mitty- Soundtrack Young the Giant- Mind Over Matter   These are just a few of what's on my ipod this fall, I'm sure I'll come across more music- Someone is always releasing a single through out the year. For now, I'm going to stick to these and ride out this fall weather.   

 

Go All The Way!

I have absolutely no idea how to explain this past weekend..I took C to the Dream Cars exhibit  at the High Museum of Art  as an early birthday present. Here is the only way I know how to explain -share photos, Hope you enjoy them as much as I did taking them!

This is only a few of what we saw, every single one was unique in it's own way.  On top of that, some were from the 1930's, these engineers were so ahead of their time- so amazing to see!

I will be posting about my experience at the High Museum of Art Tuesday!  Be on the look out!!      

My Grandmother's Sunday dinners

In honor of Grandparents Day this past sunday (yesterday), I'm sharing a few things I learned from my grandmother. 

1. Always be a lady.
2. Be different,  be artistic,  be an individual,  be you.
3. Let it go. Basically,  let shit go.
4. Relax a little.
5. Nobody cares if you have feet the size of boats, you can always find shoes to fit them! 
6. Don't let your siblings push you around.  (She had 5)
7. Cooking, cook often.  Baking, chocolate chip cookies!  She always had me make those around Christmas time!
8. Be happy-go-lucky.
9. Enjoy life.
10. She was my best friend. 

She was my best friend, my confidant,  my mentor,  my grandmother. I can't tell you how many times we would laugh, cry, and just enjoy each others company.  

I'm glad I could learn such useful things from her, she made my life better in so many ways. I wish she was still here to see how far I've come, from being that dorky little girl to the woman I am today. I believe she would be proud of me, in some of my moments- not all. :) 

Cherish those moments you have with your grandparents, you never know when they could end. 

 Remember, Stay happy&Classy!

My goal

I was sent a link for ideas of what to post, I've been having a problem with what to write and how to write it.  So this is 1 of my 30 posts this month! Let's hope I can stick to it!

My goal this month,  is to start building my credit. Yes I'm 25 and still have absolutely no credit, but I have no reason to own a credit card.  I'm not making tons of money,  I'm not a millionaire,  so there was no reason as to why I should have a credit card. 

I'm going to start with a CD (Certificate of deposit) this seems to be the easiest way to get it going, it also accrues interest!  Which is even better! So once its all paid off, I can
A: keep that loan I can roll it over every month. Or B: take the money out and spend it. I think I'll go with A,  just so my credit report will look fantastic! 

I hope my credit grows and looks 100% amazing after all this.

What's your goal for this month? Tell me in the comments section! 

I'm back!

I've been away for a little while,  I'm finally over this sickness I had. I'm back in school and also working at the same time. I couldn't be more excited about my future,  I applied to my dream job and actually had a dream about it!  So I can only hope I get it! 

Also, I cut my hair- well just added bangs and a few layers. But it's a big deal for me. This weekend C and I are taking the weekend off, so happy labor day and please be safe!

I have another

Surprise post coming tomorrow!  I've been sick and haven't posted in a while! Here's a beautiful photo of the beach, I know you wish you were here-so do I.
