This or That Tag

Hello everyone! Today we have another tag post for you. We got a great response on our last tag so we thought we would do another one! Here is the This or That Tag!


Dog or Cat?
Katelyn: If you saw our last tag, you would know that I am on team Dog. I am like the team captain. 
Kiara: Dog, hands down. 
Netflix or YouTube?
Katelyn: I would say Youtube because I kinda have an addiction to it. 
Kiara: Netflix because I like watching movies.
Phone Call or Text?
Katelyn: Text because it's awkward to stop talking in a middle of a phone call to ask your friend what you should say next.
Kiara: Either one really works but I would probably say text. 
Toast or Eggs?
Katelyn: I'd probably say toast. With peanut butter. And Strawberry Jam. :))
Kiara: EGGS. I don't really eat that much toast. But bagels... 
Cardio or Weights?
Katelyn: Well my biggest exercise is running to the bus so that counts as cardio and weights because my bag weighs a ton. 
Kiara: Cardio? I run when I play soccer. And when I want to get somewhere fast...
Facebook or Twitter?
Katelyn: I'd say Twitter. Facebook has kinda been taken over by random videos. 
Kiara: Twitter. I don't even have Facebook and Twitter does a wonderful job keeping me up with all the hockey news. 
Ice Cream Cone or Snow Cone?
Katelyn: ICE CREAM. 
Kiara: Um ice cream OBVIOUSLY. A snow cone is just flavoured water. 
Mobile Games or Console Games?
Katelyn: I'm going to say Console games just because of Wii Party and GTA 5...  We just like to drive the cars however in GTA 5. And steal planes... 
Kiara: This is a challenging one but I'm going to have to say mobile because of Cut The Rope. 
While walking: Music or Podcasts?
Katelyn: I've only ever listened to a podcast once and I was not walking. I don't listen to anything when I walk but if I had to it would be music. 
Kiara: Considering I have never listened to a podcast, music! 
iOS or Android?
Katelyn: iOS #teamiphone
Kiara: Android #teamandroid
Form or Function?
Katelyn: Form because function reminds me of advanced functions in school and NO WAY

Katelyn: Football as long as no one tackles me or comes near me
Kiara: Basketball unless the football is actually soccer then soccer
Work Hard or Play Hard?
Katelyn: Work hard because it usually works out better. Trust me I've tried both in school. Playing when you should be studying does not work. 
Kiara: Work hard
Nice Car or Nice Home Interior?
Katelyn: Nice Home Interior because I don't like driving anyways.
Kiara: Nice Home Interior because how long are you actually in your car for? You are in your house majority of your day.

Katelyn: Hiking because jogging is boring.
Kiara: Jogging because it's faster.

Hamburger or Taco?
Katelyn: Tacos because I don't eat red meat
Kiara: This is the hardest question of my life.. *contemplates for eternity*
Couch or Recliner?
Katelyn: Couch because I can spread out more
Kiara: Couch because I take the whole couch for myself :) 
Online Shopping or Shopping in a Store?
Katelyn: I like to window shop online but if I'm actually going to buy anything it will be in the store.
Kiara: In a store because I don't have to wait for it and it's easier to get the right size. 
Receive: Email or Letter?
Katelyn: Definitely a letter. It is so much more official and special.
Kiara: Letter, I get enough junk emails 
Passenger or Driver?
Katelyn: Passenger because I like to look out the window and pretend I'm in a movie

And those are all the questions! I hope you enjoyed this little tag and learned more about us. 
If you are reading this, we tag you!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette ?!?

Okay so Anastasia Beverly Hills has dropped the bomb. The most beautiful bomb in the world... an eyeshadow palette. Usually Anastasia will come out with their limited edition summer eyeshadow palette but I've heard this new palette is here to stay. They announced the palette a couple days ago over instagram and OH MY GOD it is to die for. The colours are just so exquisite and beautiful...

Here are the release pictures of the palette: 


First off, the packaging is just lovely. The baby pink and white is just adorable. 


Then BAM. The colours are just so pure and powerful. This is definitely a warm toned palette which I am a personal fan of. Honestly, I have never seen a palette with this grouping of colours. It was like I didn't know what I was missing in life. I have found the missing piece of my puzzle: The Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette. And for $42 American, I think that this palette amazing for the price. A pretty good price to complete my life I'd say. 

So now here comes the real question... When is it coming to Sephora in Canada? It has been placed onto the Anastasia website, however I do not believe it is yet for sale. Anastasia has announced that it should be released sometime in the summer. 

But of course nothing ever applies to Canada. I envy you Americans. 

Do you plan on purchasing it? Or do you like more cool toned shadows? Type me a little comment and let me know!

Brownie in a Mug Recipe

Hello everyone! Welcome to our first recipe post.
In this post, we will be showing you how to make a brownie in a mug!
There are many benefits to having a brownie in a mug.
First off, this recipe makes a single serving, so the entire brownie is for you and you only. You can eat as much as you want without any guilt!
Secondly, this brownie only takes about 5 minutes to make. That means you can make yourself a warm dessert during tv commercials. What is better than that?
And lastly, this dessert can be easily disguised as a warm beverage. Is it nine in the morning and you are craving a brownie? Do you think that other people will judge you for eating a brownie at nine in the morning? Fear no more! Everyone around you will think that you are having a nice coffee or hot chocolate. And if you put ice cream and chocolate sauce on top, it looks just like a gourmet hot chocolate. Perfect.
Since this recipe uses the microwave instead of the oven, it is completely kid friendly and is a great way to inspire your kids to start baking! So when you want a brownie, you can make your kids do it. This is a win win for everyone.

Brownie in a Mug Recipe: 

Equipment you will need:
A microwavable mug
A microwave
measuring equipment
utensils
napkins (you might get a little messy with how delicious this is!)

Ingredients you will need:
4 tbsp all purpose flour
3 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
4 tbsp milk
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
1 tbsp chocolate chips (or your choice of mix in)
1 scoop of ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce (optional but highly recommended)

Instructions: 
(more detailed instructions below)






































To start off choose your favourite microwave safe mug and get out all of the ingredients you need. In your mug, mix in your flour, sugar, cocoa and baking soda. Mix until all the ingredients are nicely blended together. Next, add in your wet ingredients (milk, vegetable oil  and vanilla) and stir these in until you have a nice brownie batter consistency. Sprinkle on your chocolate chips or topping of your choice then mix into your batter.
The next step is to put your mug into the microwave. We put our brownie in the microwave for 1 minute 40 seconds and that was the perfect amount of time. Depending on your microwave, the baking time may change. To be safe, start with 1 minute and 30 seconds and then add on 10 more seconds as needed. To check if your brownie is ready, insert a toothpick into the brownie and if the toothpick comes out clean (without any batter on it) your brownie is ready!
Also be careful taking the mug out of the microwave as it is probably extremely hot.
Once your brownie has cooled down a little bit, add on a scoop of ice cream, some chocolate sauce or any other toppings you may like.

Bon appetit!


See, this could totally be a gourmet hot chocolate!

Why do kids cry? • interior thoughts


I am sitting here currently asking myself this question.
More specifically, how on Earth can kids cry day in day out and not become exhausted?
This is completely serious. I don't understand.
Maybe that is why kids sleep a lot better than adults?
Maybe that is why kids don't have so much stress inside of them?
Maybe it is because kids live in the moment and truly express their emotions.
Maybe that is why when kids are happy, they are truly happy?
Maybe that is the key to happiness.
Crying.
Nonetheless, I do not like to hear it.
So I must say others crying is not the key to my happiness.
So then maybe crying is not the key to happiness.
Oh well, I was close.

Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Do you gotta Momma?
Does your Momma feed ya good chow?
Do you love ya Momma?
Well show Momma ya love her with an amazing Mother's Day gift!

Okay so we all know Mother's Day is coming up this Sunday... or at least you know now! Mother's Day is a great time to show your Mom how much you appreciate everything she's done for you. The only problem is thinking up ideas on HOW to show your appreciation. Anyone can go to the store and buy a card and some little Mother's Day gimmick buuuuuut that takes no effort whatsoever. Your gift should come from the heart, not Walmart (hey that rhymed!). So, to make it a bit easier for you, I have thought up a couple sweet little Mother's Day gift that you can do! Some of these ideas are last minute, some will take longer and require some planning.

I hope that you find at least one idea that Momma will love. :)


1. Personalized Gift Pack
It is so easy to go and buy a gift pack for Mom, but let's be honest, how much is she actually going to use? So by personalizing the pack, you can ensure that she loves everything and it shows that you've put some thought into it! All you have to do is find some sort of container, grab some tissue paper, a bit of cellophane clear wrap, your little gifts, and you are all set! If you are having troubles thinking of what to fill the gift pack with, here are some ideas that Mom may love:

  • her favourite chocolate bar
  • body lotion
  • nail polish
  • planner/notebook
  • sleep mask
  • homemade book mark
  • mug
  • tea/coffee
  • gloves/hat
2. Homemade Jewelry
Let's throw it back to the good old camp days with the colourful string friendship bracelets that we all loved to create. Why should that stop now? Your Mom is a lifelong friend, and that definitely deserves a friendship bracelet. They are so easy to make and completely customizable! All you need to do is go to the dollar store or any craft store of your choice and purchase some of the string. There are tons of different designs you can do. You can take out a book on how to make different designs or look on the internet! If Mom isn't too into the string, you can also make beaded or metal bracelets. Once again, there are lots of tutorials online, just take a browse around and I can almost guarantee you will find one you like.

3. Homemade Coupons
Personally, this is a go to gift for me. First off, it is really easy to create. Second, it is a very thoughtful gift. Lastly, it costs nothing. That one is my favourite reason. All you got to do is either hand make the coupons or find a template online. On my computer, microsoft word comes with really nice coupon templates that are super easy to customize. You can even add in pictures! Here are a couple of ideas for your coupons:


  • Hug/Kiss Coupon
  • Wash the dishes Coupon
  • Take the dogs for a walk Coupon
  • Foot rub Coupon
  • Mani/Pedi Coupon
  • Don't talk to me Coupon
  • Make Dinner Coupon
  • Your Choice Coupon

 4. Birdhouse
Okay, I know what you are thinking, a birdhouse? What? Yes, a homemade birdhouse. I know it sounds complicated but trust me, Mom's love it. And it actually isn't that hard. Of course I had to get assistance from my Dad since I am not the handiest person around, but I promise, it isn't too difficult. All you need to do is 4 walls, a base, and the roof. This is as complicated as you make it out to be. You can have a flat roof, triangular roof, a peg, no peg, once again this is very customizable to your abilities! After you create the birdhouse, you can paint it however you like! And if you do not have the supplies or the trust in yourself to fully build a birdhouse, I know that you can buy pre-made small birdhouses from the dollar store that are completely plain. From there you can paint it and customize it to however you like.

My Homemade Birdhouse. See the birds love it! 


And there you have it! I hope you found something you'd like to try! If you have any other Mother's Day Gift Ideas, leave a comment down below for myself and others to see. I'd love to see all your ideas.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there!

My Top 5 Mascaras

Mascara is an essential part to a makeup lovers routine. Mascara is that finishing touch that you feel wrong going without. Nowadays, there is an insane amount of mascaras on the market and there is so many different specifics to go along with it! Do you want volume? Maybe length? Curl? Can there just be a mascara that has it all???
Here is just a short lil list of my favourite mascaras I've come across in the last couple of years. Of course I can not say these are the best ones on the market because I do not have enough eyelashes to try every mascara (or a big enough wallet!) but these are the mascaras that have stood out a bit more and I would definitely repurchase. :)


1. Makeup For Ever- Smoky Extravagant Mascara 
Retail price: $30 Canadian @ Sephora
Best Feature: Definition
Wow. That is a great word to describe this mascara. It has a wet formula which allows the mascara to coat every eyelash but leave no clumps behind. The brush works amazing to separate the lashes and give an even application. I can honestly say that after putting this mascara on, you won't even believe that they are still your eyelashes. As this mascara separates your lashes, the definition it leaves is out of this world. The only thing I must say is that if you are looking for more curl and thickening, this mascara does not offer as much as other mascaras do. However if you want definition and crazy length, this mascara is the one for you!

2. Benefit- They're Real Mascara 
Retail Price: $31 Canadian @ Sephora
Best Feature: Volume
This mascara is a go to for me. Whenever I am at Sephora, I always find myself back at the Benefit counter, being pulled towards this product. The brush has long, stiff bristles, which separates the lashes very evenly and and gives a nice even application. Another plus to the brush is the rounded tip. The rounded tip of the brush makes get mascara into the corners of your eyes SO much easier and saves you a lot of time and makeup wipes. This mascara right off the bat gives great volume and thickness so a second coat is not always required. Yet if you want even more volume, the mascara is very build-able. This mascara also has great staying power, staying on your lashes and not under your eyes (no raccoons here!).

3. Bobbi Brown- Smokey Eye Mascara
Retail Price: $35 Canadian @ Sephora
Best Feature: Definition
Very similar to the Makeup For Ever Mascara, it gives great length and definition, once again coating all the lashes nice and evenly. It has a very nice hold and really exaggerates the length of the lashes, which for me, length and definition are the two features that makes me love a mascara. Overall, I find this mascara very similar to the Smoky Extravagant Mascara (Smokey Extravagant and Smoky Eye... The name just gives the similarity away!) which is probably why I love it so much!

4. Maybelline- The Falsies Mascara
Retail Price: $7 Canadian @ Walmart
Best Feature: Curl
This mascara is definitely one of the top in the drugstore world. Majority of Maybelline mascaras are good quality and work nice for the price, but this one is still the best one I have tried. It works just as the name suggests, right away it goes for the drama of falsies. As a quick mascara to put on and run out the door, it works great! It really perks up your lashes in the morning, which is nice while the rest of your body is NOT feeling perky. The only thing you have to watch out for with this mascara is that if you apply more coats, it can get very clumpy very quickly. This can easily be avoided however by just applying a little bit lighter and more carefully.

5. Maybelline- The Rocket Mascara
Retail Price: $7 Canadian @ Walmart
Best Feature: Build-able
Fun fact, when I first bought this mascara, I did not like it. Not one bit. I had bought it spur of the moment since it was brand new out and I hadn't heard anyone talk about it yet. About a month after buying it and using it, that is when all the beauty gurus got a hold of it and went crazy. They all loved it and it looked so great on them, yet when I used it, I found that it did literally nothing for me. That is when I finally figured out how to use it to my advantage. You gotta shimmy it. When you shimmy the brush back and forth, you get amazing looking lashes. It gives great length and separation to your lashes and leaves you no clumps. And because of how light this mascara can be, it is extremely build-able and can be worn naturally or more dramatic. Overall, this mascara is very versatile and can be used for many different looks depending on how you use it.



And there we go! That was my top 5 mascaras. I hope you enjoyed and maybe got some ideas on which mascara you want to try next! If you have any mascara recommendations, leave them down below for others and I to see! I am always open to trying new mascaras and would love some ideas. :)

Tips for Decorating your Dorm Room

Going away to school is a huge step in your life. You are finally leaving your parents, your house and your ever so annoying siblings. You are finally reaching the freedom of adulthood. Except for the fact that you are often shoved into a tiny little room that you cannot change too much.
Many times when you get to your dorm room, the 4 blank brick walls can be extremely intimidating. Definitely not my idea of cozy and home-y. When you are in your dorm room majority of time, you want it to be as comfortable as possible.
So here are some of our ideas to make your dorm room feel like a real home and personalized to you!

Bring some pieces of home:
Yes, it is extremely exciting to start fresh and get all new stuff for your room. However, this can sometimes lead to a dorm room that doesn't truly feel like yours. It is important to bring some items from home, whether that be your table lamp or your favourite stuffed animals. During the tough transition of being at home to being by yourself, these items can give you that home comfort. Not to mention saving you some cash from having to repurchase everything.

Never underestimate the power of a dollar:
The dollar store will be your best friend. You can buy everything there whether you need shampoo, pasta, or a dust pan. Why go to the shopping mall and spend tons of money on dorm room decor when you can spend only a couple of bucks at the dollar store! You would be surprised with what you can get at a dollar store. Especially during any holiday. You need Christmas decorations? Bam, dollar store. Easter? Dollar store! Always the dollar store. We have found lots of nice decorations such as garlands and glitter tape. Even cute door decorations! No matter what you need, the dollar store will have it.

Wall covering are key:
Sadly, you cannot paint the walls of your dorm room or really alter them in anyway. Unless you are looking for a very large fine at the end of the year. But we suggest trying to stay away from destroying the walls at all. The best alternative? Cover them. You can use flags, print pictures off the internet, or our personal favourite, printing off lots of pictures from home or your camera. You can create some killer collages. If you want a large wall covering, tapestries also work great. Urban Outfitters sells lots of cool tapestries that can easily spice up your dorm room. If you want to really personalize your walls, you can also try the removable wall stickers. There are tons of different varieties on the market such as quotes and images. And since they are removable, there is no worry of being charged for ruining the walls.

Plan out your room ahead of time:
As fun as it might be to buy a bunch of items in the spur of the moment, it is important to think about how you would like the final outcome of your room to look. Try to choose a colour scheme before you go out and start to purchase items. This will not only narrow down your search, but also make your room more cohesive. Instead of just choosing a colour scheme, you can also go for a theme. Some theme ideas span from beach to bohemian to space. Also try and do some online research. Looking up other peoples dorm rooms on google can give you lots of inspiration.

These are just a few of our tips and ideas. Happy decorating!

How to Survive High School

Having our fair share of high school experiences, we have compiled a group of what to do and what not to do in high school. These are based on our previous experiences and we hope that they are useful for the youngster entering high school. Of course, do not take these all too literally, they are just suggestions and guidelines. :)

First, let's start off with what NOT to do: 

  1. Throwing a party at your own house is not a smart move- unless of course you enjoy a destroyed house. It does not matter who you invite, if you are inviting enough people the word will spread and you are going to get some diehard partygoers. These partygoers are there for one reason and one reason only... to get drunk. Drunk people often like destroying stuff. So save yourself and your moms plate collection, don't throw a party at your own house. 
  2. Hallways are meant for walking- Not standing around and chatting with your friends. Now this is okay if you are against the lockers and have left room for people to walk. But if you are standing in the middle of the hallway, you will be pushed out of the way and most likely yelled at. This is a really easy way to have a lot of people not like you. So please just keep the hallways open. 
  3. Do not spray axe or body spray at your lockers- to you it may not smell too strong, but trust me when I say that everyone else is being suffocated. Just leave the spray at home and to the confinement of your own room. If you are in desperate need of a refresh, just grab the bottle and head off to the washroom. You will save a lot of people from headaches. 
  4. Lunch tables are unofficially assigned- so do not all of a sudden decide to sit at a different table with your group of friends. You don't realize the frenzy this will cause. It creates a wave of chaos. Everyone will have to shift tables and take other peoples tables. And this all comes back to the fact that you decided to switch seats. So save the commotion and stick to the unofficial seating arrangement. 
  5. Don't ditch your friends without a valid excuse- your significant other is not a valid excuse. Unless they are on their death bed. If you have plans, stick to them. Whether it is going our for lunch or working on a project, do not ditch last minute for something else better that may have come up. It is extremely annoying and you are not going to make a lot of friends by basically telling them that they are not important to you. 
Now lets move onto what you CAN do to make your high school experience the best it can be: 

  1. Get involved- this sounds so cliche but it is very true. By joining sports teams and clubs you get to meet lots of other people with the same interests as you. It also looks great on a resume or university application to say that you are a well-rounded person. It just makes school that little bit more fun! 
  2. Actually do your schoolwork- trust us when we say that it will catch up with you really fast. You can get away with it at the beginning of the year but very quickly you will become lost in the work. There is a reason that teachers assign you to do the homework and you just got to trust sometimes that it is worth the effort. If you do not create good habits right off the bat, it is extremely hard to turn it all around when marks are being submitted to university/college. 
  3. Be open to meeting all different types of people- you never know where you will find your best friends. Being closed off and narrow minded will often leave you alone with no friends. You have to be open to meeting all different personalities. For all you know, the people you may think that you are completely incompatible with, may wind up being the greatest people you know.
We hope that you take these little tips with you to high school and we wish you the best of luck!
Our high school hallway, look how clear it is
