yummy

heyy. so it's the beginning of real winter now, so i thought it would be time for this tip! enjoy!
 

- make sure your parent/ guardian calls into your school so you have an excused absence.

- only stay home sick if you REALLY feel sick, because you're gonna have to make up the work anyways..

- don't fake sick. just don't do it. it's not worth missing a day of school for. in my opinion. no, i'm not saying i love school and it's so great, but chances are you're really gonna get sick one time this year, so don't waste being out sick for nothing.

- dress in sweats/ pj's so you're super comfy all day on your road to recovery. (:

- if you know that you have a test/ quiz the next day, use staying home to your advantage & study! no, not ALL day, but maybe one hour during the day & then more at night! of course, only if you feel up to it!

- drink tea or hot chocolate if you have a sore throat, preferably tea, but hot chocolate would work too.

- if you have a cold, drink orange juice!! it REALLY helps! drinking normal is fine, but drinking the calcium & vitamin D enriched one is even better!

- hydrate with water! drinking water throughout the day ( a lot! ) no matter what sickness you have. if you have a stomach bug, take it easy at first, but make sure to drink water or you can get realllllyyy dehydrated! trust me, my cousin had a stomach bug & didn't drink any water so then she had to go to the hospital for dehydration! so drink it. also, if you have a cold it helps prevent coughing sometimes.

- use an emergency inhaler if you need one. if you are diagnosed with asthma or cold-induced asthma, take your inhaler, but you probs know that!

- take medicine! take benedryl, motrin, pepto-bismol, etc for a fast recovery!

- read! reading might not be your favorite activity, but if you have a book report due in two weeks, this day being at home can be a great head start to reading!!

- relax! sleep really matters when you're sick. go to bed as early as possible!

- don't bother your parents all day! they won't want to keep you home again! lol (: jayy kayy ♥

- listen to music. it can be super realxing & a great pass time!

- play some gamees on your ipod to pass time (:

- that list of stuff to do on a rainy day that you still haven't done? do it! ( if you can)

- make a collage
http://www.polyvore.com/magazine_clipping_collage/set?id=38069789

- clean your room

- read magazines (:

- make your friends bday cards (:

- organize pictures & make a scrapbook

 
lol these are getting like too much energy stuff lol (:

haha well, for all you sick ladiess, feeeeel betterr! ♥

O1. STRETCH IT OUT. when you wake up, just stretch out a little before you get out of bed! doing yoga for just 10 minutes a day will boost your energy!

O2. EAT A BETTER BREAKFAST. eating a breakfast with protein will help you get awake! but you should have some carbs & fruit too! & don't forget to hydrate!!!

O3. BREATHE. when you're feeling tired- just start taking deep breaths! you bring more oxygen into the body, so more oxygen goes to the brain & you're more awake!

O4. POWERFUL PACKED LUNCH. pack your lunch! you can choose what you get, which means no more mystery meat! & you can power pack it with tons of healthy foods filled with proteins and nutrients to keep you energized all day long!

O5. GET UP & GO! on those days where you feel gross & don't feel like doing anything besides watching tv, exercise! i know it sounds weird, but it gets your blood pumping & WILL wake you up, boost your energy; so it will make you feel better! (:

O6. AVOID CANDYLAND. it may be the holiday season, but that doesn't mean that all you're gonna eat is candy canes, gingerbread men & peppermint patties. it will be a quick energy burst for a little bit, but then you'll crash.. and burn. looking for a quick & sweet snack? try a SMALL piece of dark chocolate or yogurt with fruit & honey! also, almonds are great snacks!

O7. SLEEP! well, this one is a little obvious, but it's true! also, the scent of jasmine is proven to help you fall asleep faster! turn of your phone, i-pod, TV & computer about a half hour before you go to bed, it will clear your mind and help you fall asleep faster! similarly, don't do HW right before bed either!! but reading an independent reading book is always a nice way to slowly drift off to sleep! or listening to calming, quiet & soft music.

O8. CLEAR YOUR MIND. take just 5 minutes every night to just clear your head of all thoughts and stressors. it can help you relax before bed and fall asleep faster too, which will lead to more energy tomorrow & if you do it in the middle of the day, more energy for the rest of the day! (:

okay, i hope this helps you all! (:

♥, Nicole

so, i see you are in need of some good advice! well, your problem ends here! i can be totally honest, trust-worthy & i will listen to what you have to say. i will NEVER judge you for the situation you may be facing because that is completely awful. so, if you are in need of some advice, just PM me & i will tell you if your advice made the 'cut' ( i will only make 5-10 in the set), but the good news is that if you PM me & you don't make it in time, then i may probably just respond with some advice anyway! :)
 
please do not do something very general like how to earn money quickly or how to flirt with my crush who doesnt know me. put that in the request set & i will try to make a whole tip on it!! :)
 
THANKS!
♥, nicoleeeexoxo

1. TALKING TO YOUR CRUSH.
talking to your crush at a party is a lot different than tlaking to him at school! here are some easy ways to start a convo! (:

- if he's hanging out with friends in the couch..
say.. 'did you just see that guy trip over himself?!'
& that could be an easy conversation starter! * even if it didn't happen!* :)

- if he's hanging with a bunch of guys..
you say: psst. my friend thinks your friend is cute, is he single?'

- is he's eating..
say...' what do i have to do to get you to share? (:'

now, the first two... don't have to be true! it's just an easy ice breaker & convo starter!

remember, don't stay with him the whole time, most guys hate clingy girls!!

but on the other hand, don't try to hard & be an attention whore!

also, if you're of age- don't get like super drunk, especially if a guy or your bf is driving you home. some guys 1. may not like it & two, if they're not very nice, could try to take advantage of you.

2. HAVE CONFIDENCE!

when you walk into the party, act like you're the reason for the party! (: your good attitude will make people wanna talk to you!

3. BRING A HOSTESS GIFT!
even if it's just store-bought brownies, the host will be thankful! (:

4. TAKE PICS! ♥
it's always fun to look back on fun nights! (: not to mention posing for pics is pretty fun too! (:

 
5. DON'T ACT LIKE A SL*T.
like, yeah some guys may like it, but they're not the guys you want to be around, because they're obviously not guys who care about your personality if they like you because you're acting slutty. now, i'm not saying you can't do anything a little flirty or anything- but just don't go overboardd.. (:

6. BRING A SMALL BAG. ♥
just keep THE NECESSITIES. so like lip gloss, mini foundation/ touch-up, gum, phone, keys, some $ & maybe a safety pin for wardrobe malfunctions! (:

7. BREAK THE ICE. ♥
some easy convo starters:

- compliment them!
- share a funny story!
-talk about the hostess, an obvi mutual friend!
-ask about themselves!

- WHAT TO WEAR. (:
a loose/ baggy t-shirt
-jean shorts or skinnies
-sneakers or flats.
-maybe if it's really cold a tank & fun cardi? (:

* uggs- are not a good idea because with all the dancing, your feet will be sweaty!
* flip flops- not a good idea because your toes could get stepped on!

HAIR:
-straightened ponytail & pouf
- fishtail
- french braid
- braid
- down, ( i would recommend to bring a hair tie! )

* i wouldn't wear a long necklace or any valuable jewelry! no long necklaces b/c if your dancing it will bounce up & down and like hit you or someone in the face. & no expensive jewelry because like if you loose it it could be difficult to find & then replace!

 
some credit to girls life magazine & seventeen magazine! (: but the last 3 bullets were 100% me. the others were ideas that i re-worded! (:

hope you liked it & happy partying! ♥
