As I’ve mentioned before, the Parkers are off to Mexico! I’m so excited to relax on the Lido deck and grab some lunch from the buffet! Emily and Mom are going to drive to LA on Thursday, and my dad and I are flying down on Friday. Our cruise leaves Saturday and comes back the next…
Today is Super Bowl LIX, which to be honest, doesn’t affect me the way it does most people. I’m not a huge football fan but some of my friends are, so hey, let’s have a party! That does mean today is cleaning day too, which I find rather therapeutic. We’re inviting some of our closest…
Last night, my dad took me and Emily to the daddy-daughter dance. It was really fun, and I enjoyed spending quality time with my family (my mom was also there, serving dessert). There were only a handful of teens, the majority of the girls being in elementary school. I was sort of disappointed there weren’t…
Exciting news! We are going on a cruise to the Mexican Riviera aboard the Discovery Princess next week. It will be my 24th official cruise, and Emily’s first! The next few weeks are going to be travel specific posts for our vacation. Today is our official packing day, so I want to go over the…
Emily and I like to do this thing where she gives me a word like forest, and I make a hairstyle out of it. We’ve done a few, but I haven’t taken pictures. Here’s an idea of the forest hairstyle and how to do it. When she gave me the word forest, I instantly thought…
My closet has always been something of a disaster. When we moved home, and I got my bubblegum pink room, I realized there was not a lot of storage space. So, it was time to purge. Here’s some advice: don’t make up excuses of why you need every single thing in your closet. You will…
When we moved to our current house, I wasn’t sure if I wanted the room with the bright pink wall. But the light was so perfect, and the room was just right. We have a good family friend who has always been right about things, even when I doubted her. She told me she was…
My life can be unpredictable at times, as most people’s lives are, but lately, I’ve fallen into a routine that I find very beneficial to my mental, physical, and spiritual health. As I’ve mentioned before, I shower as soon as I wake up. My alarm is on the other side of the room from my…
An interesting thing I do is twice-daily showers. People have told me that this is extremely unhealthy, and I want to clarify: I do not wash my hair twice a day. I shower once when I wake up, and once before bed. No more, no less. My logic for this practice is simple: I like…
If you ever have friendship problems, make sure that you aren’t worsening them. If someone does something unkind to you, don’t retaliate. Instead, take a break and try something new. Make new friends or find a new interest. Your friendship isn’t over unless you let it be. xoxo Liv
I can’t believe my first day of middle school is Monday! All of the excitement and stress has built up to this point. I have heard a lot of different things about the DA. I know for a fact that schoolwork will be difficult. In the first few weeks of school, stuff changes around A…
