hate being sick

I really don't like being sick at all... my temp keeps changing and I feel nauseous all the time. singing even feels weird and the nauseous feeling is still lingering. I don't even know what this could be. help!!! you would think that working in a pediatric doctors office, you could get things to help prevent an illness; WRONG!!! the one girl that works with me gets sick all the time. during the winter, no patients came in and now all of the sudden, the phones are ringing to make appointments because their children are sick. sore throats, swollen nodes, runny noses, coughs, wheezing... strep and the flu is coming around.

Lá Shona Fhéile Pádraig

Lá Shona Fhéile Pádraig!!!
March 17th brings a smile to this face of mine. I am proud to be represent all of the nationalities that I am but St. Paddy's holds a special place in my heart.
Being a girl that was raised in a multi-racial family, I am on the light skinned side being that my father is white and my mother is black. Growing up in the NY tri-state, I have seen many things. But on holiday out of the year has always been my favourite besides my birthday(even though I bitch about my birthday every year. next year is the big 2-1).  I get to learn many new things about the Irish and be proud of the rich history.

My Paddy's Day was fun with work and singin' and dancin' to Irish tunes. I did go to a parade over the weekend. A post with all the details recounting my weekend will come soon.

But I wanted to post this to wish everyone a happy and safe St. Paddy's and enjoy!!!

Lá Fhéile Pádraig is close!!!

St. Paddy's Day is fast approaching and I can not wait!!!! I love going to the parade in Morristown and being with my family in town. So the day before the parade I am going to give you a run down of what the plans are for hair, make-up, outfit, and the the day... On Monday, actually St. Paddy's day I will post a detailed post of photos and the day. I will also provide links to articles to read up on one of my favourite holiday..

The general outline of the hair is wavy so I curled my hair last night. Will do a little retouching if need be on parade day.
Make-up: either a nude lid with black liner and mascara or green shadow with black liner and mascara
Clothes: sneakers, blue jeans, shamrock tank top, black sweater, and a jacket  for the weather
Accessories: bead, beads, beads, whatever I buy or get on parade day!!! and I have a tiara that says "Irish Princess" that I am so wearing!!! will post a photo with the whole look either on Sunday or Monday.

yet again, another snow storm!

this weekend will be spent on getting junk food and waiting for the storm Titan to come and bury the east coast again. CVS and I are well acquainted with each other. The storm is coming on Monday :(

so Saturday is work and maybe some fun after the fact. Sunday starts the storm and continues into Monday. Thank you to the heavens I have a new laptop. This will help occupy the time I will be just watchin' movies and things.

I bought my junk food today at CVS after hanging with one of my best friends. Now I am home posting this late on the first day of March before I go to bed since I have work in the A.M.

now all I have to do is work and relax this weekend as it will snow. I will take that time to catch up on some laundry, watch some records on the DVR, and clean a little more..

hope y'all have a great weekend and I will talk with everyone on Monday!! Give you updates on the snowy condition, please follow my Instagram or Twitter, @punkgurl9859 for both!!!


thanks and please enjoy!!! leave comments on any post. I'd love to talk with everyone.

   good night
