SEX!... Now that I have your attention.

Are You stuck in a rut? Tired of the same old sex routine night after night? Looking to spice up your love life?
Here's 10 ways to bring that spark back.

WEAR RED

Men seem to be highly attracted to shades of crimson, and in studies have rated woman who wore it to be much more desirable sexually . It's eye catching and sexy! However, this will not change how they feel about your personality.

DO YOGA!

 This one is targeted more for the men. Strange as this sounds, the position "downward dog"  has actually been shown to increase a males ability to last in the sack up to three times.

SPEAK UP

Tell your partner what it is you want! Are they doing something you rather they wouldn't? Is there something you want to try? Hear about this great new position? Have a spicy fantasy? Tell them!

WATCH A COMEDY

Strange thing to get you in the mood huh? But Laughter can actually help increase the level of enjoyment you receive during foreplay and the following activities. It stimulates your heart, getting your blood pumping, delivering fresh oxygen to all parts of your body. Including, the fun parts.

HAVE SEX IN THE AM

They say morning sex is the best. Here's the reason for that:
Morning sex actually increases your overall mood throughout the day and can be beneficial to your health.
And gentlemen, you will last longer and finish stronger.

EXERCISE

This falls back into the fresh oxygen part of it but can also reduce the risk of ED in males.
20 Minutes a day can make a world of difference.

ADD SOME PURPLE TO YOUR ROOM

Purple is one of those sensory stimulating colors. People with purple rooms tend to have better sex lives then those who don't.

ADD A GLASS OF WINE

Ladies, drinking one or two glasses a  day will increase your night life with your partner.
It will lead to more satisfying sex life,possibly due to relaxation of the body.

MEN, HAVE A DRINK TOO

 Studies show that beer can also increase a man's ability to last longer and have a good time.

TRY SOMETHING NEW!

Sometimes, That's all it takes. give up the old routine and try a new one. You might end up, pleasantly surprised.


So Readers, Give it a shot tonight. Who knows, you may have a  Mind-blowing.... experience.

Drama, Drama Drama!

We all know one.. have one on Facebook... those individuals that air all their dirty laundry all over the internet.
WHY??
Are people so desperate for any kind of attention that they feel the need to pollute the atmosphere with all the bullshit that they needlessly involve themselves in?
Honestly 90% of drama is self caused. It's not everyone else's problem okay? If you've got beef with someone else then keep that between yourself and them. People are so judgmental these days that even the simplest problem can escalate and morph into something completely out of control.
Just because you don't get along with someone doesn't mean no one else will.
STOP ISOLATING PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THEM!
It's bullying and abusive.
What if someone did that to you? How would you feel?
Don't like the feeling do you? So why do it to someone else?
Is this really what the world has come to?
A bunch of self satisfied snooty bitches that don't feel complete until they have wrecked someone else's day?
I don't understand how that has come to be socially accepted!

Look, we need to change our outlook on these things before the entire world spirals out of control and ends up in a mass hysteria of nothing but cold hearted brats who care for no one but themselves...Do we really want a world where no one is there to turn to if you need them?
No!!
So why do we do this to each other?

You know what? It's time someone stepped up and said CUT THE SHIT!! You are no better then the person next to you. You make mistakes just like they do! So get your nose out of the air and stop parading around like you own the place.
It's time to make a change. But it has to start with you. Only you can change how you act, think and speak.
It's time for all of us to be a better person.
Starting now.

Let Me Introduce Myself

So it recently occurred to me that some of you may not have any idea who I am Or who some of the people I talk about in my blog are.

< My daughter for example. The happiest baby I have ever met in my life. And I'm not just saying that because she's mine. I'm told all the time that she is extremely well tempered and one of the prettiest babies people have ever seen.

We tried for years to get her. Wasn't until after we gave up that She decided to come along. 

 < My husband Tyler ( Pictured here with Izzy when she was a month old)

Been married to this guy for 4 years. yup.. that makes me married at 19. 

< Aaron. He's the 17 year old that lives with us. He's also the reason behind the Facebook fan page  "Shit My Roommate Says"

< And of course, Me. I'm 22 , I'm a Mother, The owner of this blog( obviously), an Arbonne Consultant, and a Model.  Yeah, I know... I'm nuts. But the truth is, is that, I would Love to be able to make enough money doing the last three things that I could stay home with my daughter. See, I'm on Maternity Leave from a full time position at Deluxe Fish And Chips... which is kind of why I was able to do any of these things in the first place. 

No Joke, My first day on the job I vomited all over my supervisor, ( sorry Ashley).

As it stands right this second, I'm going back. But, I digress.

I graduated high school in 2010, collage in 2012 and I've sort of been floating around ever since. 

I guess in the end it doesn't really matter. I'm content with what I have right now, and I plan on building it up with time. It's not about the destination.. It's about the journey.

What's your story? Leave a comment telling me a little about you!

Upcoming Facebook Fan Page (updated)

Hey there Readers.
I just wanted to let you know that I will be starting a new Facebook page entitled " Shit My Roommate Says."
You'll understand when it goes up.
It will be worth a read trust me.

Just so we have a little bit of a back story on this, Aaron, the roommate in question, is 17. He lost his father last Christmas to Cancer, and his step mother had no interest in keeping him so, he sort of Bounced around in Fredericton and Bass River where he worked on a beef farm. Recently, we took him in after his mother became an addict  and his cousin stole 1000$ from him... I'm not joking you can ask his case manager.
He wanted a place where he could go where he wouldn't have to worry about being screwed over, so he got a hold of us. You see, when His father passed last year, we had offered him a place to go, but his mother had already asked for him to live there. He was there 3 days before he realized that she has a problem.

Anyway, when he messaged us telling us of his problems we told him the offer still stands.
So now we have a 17 year old who utters the most random, funny and  sometimes crude things you have ever heard.

So after asking him if he would mind, I've been collecting little tidbits of randomness. So within the next few days, Shit my roommate says will  make it's debut on Facebook.

                                     Here's to You!

Welcome to Motherhood :)

This one is going to be short and sweet. I recently got some exciting news! I'm going to be an Auntie... again.
So far I've got 3 nieces and 2 Nephews as well as a great nephew and two great nieces. And I'm 22. 
My Sister in Law Amanda is the one to blame for this upcoming bundle of joy coming in at around 8 1/2 weeks!
I'm excited for her, and she's excited and scared. I can understand that. It's her first, and when I was pregnant for my daughter I had terrible anxiety and horrific nightmares about things going wrong.

But thankfully everything went great. As I'm sure will be the case here.

I'd like to say Congratulations Amanda :) You're going to be a great Mom!
Have fun and welcome to motherhood!

Choosing Roommates

We've all had them. Good ones, bad ones, the ones we never see but they pay the rent...
So how do we choose the one's that will work for us?

Here's a couple of tips to help you when it comes to making that all important decision

Tip 1:
Decide your deal breakers.
Let's say you sign onto a 12 month lease. You don't want to miserable the entire time you live together. Do you hate Nickleback and they love them? Are you a cat person and they own a dog?
Chances are they are not the roommate for you.

Tip 2.
Connect with potentials.
Now that you have both your ideal and not so ideal candidates in mind advertise. Ask everyone! Friends, family, hell, even your dentist, anyone who might also be looking. Post on social media. Craigslist, Kijiji, Facebook. whatever method you choose.

Tip 3.
Meet up with them!
Once you've found a couple people you think you'd be able to get along with, meet up with them. Grab a coffee or a quick lunch. 30mins can tell you alot about a person and if they're going to rub you the wrong way. First Impressions, remember?

Tip 4.
Be Financially Savvy.
Ask for a reference of employment. You don't want to be the one stuck paying all the bills, buying all the groceries etc. Because, well, then there would be no point in a roommate.
Be fair and offer the same to them. Let them know that you're not looking for a free ride either.

After that, it's up to you to make a choice.

Good Luck, Have Fun and let the Movie Marathons begin!

Parenthood in a Nutshell

Alright, don't get me wrong, I love being a mom, but there literally is no harder, or more exhausting job in the world then being a parent. It's a 24/7 365 day a year job with no vacations and no sick days.
I mean, it's worth it. You get paid in hugs, kisses, and giggles. Many of people however, seem to think that a stay at home parent has it easy. NOPE!

My days with my daughter are spent chasing her around the apartment, keeping her out of the cat food and water, trying to make sure she doesn't fall every time she stands on her own( which is all the time) trying to teach her how to walk, and constantly chasing the balls she throws out of her ball pit we got her for Christmas.
Couple that with the housework and laundry, looking after my husband and the 17 year old we took in and my day is gone. Sounds fun eh?
I take a 10 min shower and it feels like a day at a spa.

Aside from my modeling gigs, I don't get away much.
Being a parent is about giving up what you use to be to become something, or someone rather, more.
Something other then the selfish ( albeit not intentional) individual that we once were.
To feel a love that cannot be felt by any other experience.
It's to become whole.

I donno, maybe that was just me. But what I do know, is that from the moment they lay that tiny baby in your arms on day one until the day you die, being a parent (however exhausting and stressful it may be,) changes you  in a way you can't even imagine.

and it's beautiful.

The Art of Pick Up Lines.

So we've all had it happen, sitting in a bar or hell, even a bus stop these days and someone will approach you and let loose the worst pick up line you've ever heard.
"So.. You're a girl huh?"
Yup. That's right. That my lovelies is the creativity of today's standard human being... sad isn't it?

So I'm going to help you. let's take a look at how to successfully create a pickup line so that the next time you drop the bomb on someone you may be a little less likely to wind up going home alone.

There are 3 steps to creating a pick up line:

STEP 1: Think of the object (or person) you want to compare the person to. For example, a sugar plum or someone famous. This means that unless you're ex is Channing Tatum or Miranda Kerr ( Victoria's Secret Angel) then you probably shouldn't start the conversation with;  "You look just like my ex..."

STEP 2: What's significant about the object or person you've chosen? Is the object sweet and well sought after? Does the person have nice legs? ( If this is your focus, then I would avoid "nice legs, when do they open?")

STEP 3: Twist it around a little bit. Play with the words before delivery. Say you chose a rose..  How about something like;

"If you stood in front of a mirror and held up 11 roses, you would see 12 of the most beautiful things in the world."

Smooth right? I'd melt.

Sure beats "Did you just fart? Cuz you Blew me away!"
Leave a comment with the worst pick up line you've ever heard.

Reasons marijuana should be leagalized

Alright, I'm at it again. Here's a hot topic: Marijuana Legalization 

Got some of you rolling your eyes right now, I get it, I really do. Same old song and dance...Oh here goes another Stoner ranting and raving about pot. Sure. assume that if you will, but the truth is, I advocate the legalization of pot as much as I do homosexual marriage. Here's what I don't understand: Why is something that has grown for the earth, causes no violence, and no fatalities illegal while things like cigarettes,( death toll at over 5 MILLION each year!  5 MILLION!!), Legal?  Hell smoking is so bad for you that companies are required by law to put those nasty looking pictures of peoples lungs and brains and eye and tongue to warn you about what you're doing to your body. Yet they're still legal!
Alcohol.. here's another peachy example of something that kills you and yet we still sell it legally. Our dear friend Alcohol. This shit kills 88,000 people every year in the USA alone. Can you believe that? That's ridiculous!!
I mean come on Bees kill more people every single year (53 deaths per year) then smoking a joint does.
Go ahead and ask me how many deaths Marijuana causes.. go ahead.  NONE!! Not a single one.
You have to smoke or consume the equivalent of your body mass to overdose on this stuff... YOUR ENTIRE MASS! Can you eat that many brownies? I sure as hell can't.

Alright, enough with the rant.. Marijuana is actually useful for a variety of things. It could supplement our needs to take huge amounts of coal on oil and destroy our atmosphere with the toxins they release when burned.
Need a few examples?

Clothing. That's right clothing. Hemp weaving's have been found and dated back to 8000BC. People found this plant and made clothes with it!

Paper. People have used this material to create those nice lined sheets of paper we all know as loose-leaf for as long as 2000 years!

Building supplies. For example Hempcrete...A stronger, lighter, more environmentally friendly version of concrete.

Beauty Products. You know that fantastic hand cream out on the market right now called Hemp....

Cancer Treatment. More recently Doctors have been prescribing Marijuana as a treatment for both pain and as a cancer treatment, with much success. Pain bothers the user significantly less and therefore they no longer have need for more addictive pills such as Perks or Oxycontin. ( Insert sarcasm here) I know IT's terrible to have less people on these highly addictive drugs. Patients with cancer have actually had tumors shrink because they were prescribed weed. Shrink!

Some studies suggest that people who use weed recreationaly actually have a lowered risk of getting cancers like throat and tongue cancer or lung cancer for that matter.

And yet, it's illegal... it doesn't cause rape or murder or violence because, face it, they're all to mellowed out and stoned to do anything but enjoy life watch tv and eat some chips. They're not hurting anyone! why are people so against pot smoker? That guy that just delivered your pizza.. probably hit a dart just before knocking on your door... and you tipped him didn't you. Cuz he was a nice guy with a hot and ready Pizza. Did he pull a knife on you? no. Rape you? no.
So leave the stoners be! let them do things their way and do things your way. it's not anyone else's business anyway.

People are so F**king Fake!!

That's it! I'm tired of all these fucking posers running around pretending to be somebody! What is with this shit?! What makes some people think they are better then everyone else? Do you bleed pure gold? no? I didn't think so. So what's the deal?

Let's see what the science has to say about it:
Apparently, after some research, nothing.Not a damn thing. So people think they shit perfection for absolutely no reason what so ever.
seriously??
I don't understand this at all! Just because you have money or you're hot doesn't mean ANYTHING!!
Get your heads out of your asses!!
Obviously, that excludes you, my reader, you have some intelligence and give me a little hope for what is left of society.
Good Luck!

Why do people cheat?

People equate cheating to a multitude of different factors. For example, I recently read a study that men are more likely to cheat because of high levels of testosterone, which accounts for the high sex drive and therefore high needs. People who are less likely to cheat will often do so because they find themselves in a situation where they no longer think about the impending consequences and act solely on hormones and lust.

THIS IS PURELY BULLSHIT!!!!!
people, men and woman alike cheat because of two things.
A.) They are no longer happy and or satisfied in their current relationship, and don't have the balls to tell the other person it's over
or
B.) They simply have no regard for any amount of loyalty and are complete assholes who will spend the rest of their lives kicking themselves in the ass because they fucked around on their dream girl and she peaced out... not that I can blame her... I would do the same. Fuck that cheaters will always be cheaters. Trust me, I know from experience

Trust me my Lovely Readers, you're worth more then that.
