Easy Ways to Make That Much Needed Moola!

June 30, 2015

hey guys!

I know sometimes money gets low! And I wanted to share with you guys some easy ways to make money! Some of these are gift card programs, or apps to get gift cards!

here we go!

  1. Download ‘Ride’ App: This is a free app that connects with you, to track where you go. You just travel any miles and Ride counts it for you! And points add up to gift cards!
  2. Download ‘ShopKick’ App: This is also a free app. Just walk into stores, and this will give you points towards gift cards. This doesn’t work towards all stores, just the ones listed.
  3. Sell Your Closet with ‘Poshmark’: This is also a free app, and a website. This is a site where you can sell clothes you have that you don’t want, or sell clothes that don’t fit.
  4. Babysitting: Believe me, alot of families need babysitters. Just get your training from the Red Cross, and start putting up signs in your neighborhood, or contacting families that you know have little kids.
  5. Tutor/Give Lessons: Are you good at anything in particluar? Playing the piano? Chemistry? Put up signs at your school or in your neighborhood saying that you offer lessons, and your price point.

These are the five things I suggest to get money! Hope you guys enjoy!

3. Vineyard Vines Golf Balls -$62: I have been looking for new golf balls for awhile. These are just so cute! I love the way they play with, considering I’ve only placed like twice with these new ones, and it takes me awhile to get used to new ones.

My Workout Routines

June 19, 2015

hey guys!

last tuesday I shared with you guys my favorite workout music, without showing you guys my favorite workouts! so here are my favorite workouts!

okay, I like to mix my workouts, I do several different things.

  • Shooting Hoops: I usually do the usual shooting hoops with my sister. When we shoot its usually 30-45 minutes. This is approximately 143-214 calories burnt for 30-45 minutes.
  • Driving Range: I usually go on the driving range for an hour shooting all from using my driver to trick shots that I need work on! This is approximately 211 calories burnt for an hour.
  • Running: I go on 2 mile runs. This is to keep myself together and in shape. This takes me around 20 minutes to complete, but I am getting faster! This is approximately 234 calories burnt for 2 miles.
  • Step Aerobics: This dance workout was originally not too fun for me, considering my dancing skills, but I am getting better! I do this for 30 minutes. This is approximately 286 calories burnt for 30 minutes of Step Aerobics.
  • Gym Routine: On the occasion of me going to the gym at my school (usually once a week after my summer school classes, or during the school year while I am not playing my organized sport.) I like going on the elliptical machine for a starter for 10 minutes which burns approx 80 calories (depending on the speed!) Then I go on a spin bike, where I read a magazine or watch a soul cycle class video to follow along. I spend 30 minutes at a moderate speed and approximately burn 375 calories. Then I do sqats (usually 50). On average at the gym I say I burn approx 475 calories.
  • Roll Out: After all of my workouts I roll out. This doesn’t burn calories, but its essential for me not to be in alot of pain in the next hours, or next day.

I occasionally do other things, but mostly these things. I enjoy going on the range, and it tends to be not so physically draining. I also enjoy the step aerobics because you get to listen to really loud music and dance really terribly.

Comment if you enjoyed this article and what is your favorite workout?

Summer Favorites

June 5, 2015

hey guys!

I wanted to share with you guys, my summer favorites! Since my exams just ended for me its finally summer! I will share my summer favorites in my first week of summer!

1. Supergoop Sunscreen: This is a must have, especially for me, and my very fair skin. This sunscreen is great because it is really not very sticky!

2. Tervis Tumblr: I love this cup because its personalized! Since its double walled it keeps the drinks and the ice very cold in the cup. This cup is amazing for days in summer school or at the beach!

3. Vineyard Vines Towel: A towel is a staple for summer and I love this and think this is just so cute the logo and everything!

4. Victoria Secret Pink Wet Bikini Bag: Okay, I know I talk about this all the time, but I LOVE THIS! This is the greatest invention ever, and I have used it so many times, and I know that I will use it so many more times.

5. Nikon 1 J5 Camera: This is the camera I own, and I enjoy it. Its the size of a little camera, but the lens is almost like a dslr lens.

6. Pink Beaded Tassel Necklace: I personally love how tassel necklaces look! I think they are so chic, and so stylish.

7. Wishing Elephant Bracelet: This wishing bracelet from Stella and Dot is just so cute! I am obsessed with elephants, and love how this bracelet looks!

8. ‘Hello Stranger’ Kate Spade New York IPhone Case: You guys all know that I am a huge fan of Kate Spade, and this lavender case is just very cute, and summery!

9. Havianas Flip Flops in Dark Purple: You guys have already seen, my love for Havianas flip flops. They are just so easy, and they are a ton nicer than the ones you can buy at Target.

10. Brandy Melville Keychain and iPhone Case: These are sold not together, but they are no longer sold! That is so sad, but these are such cute little things, practically made for summer!

thanks all, if you guys wanna comment or share some of your own summer favorites, please share them with me!
