Welcome!

Hello everyone! A new year and new path with what I want to post. Since I didn't post anything last month, I am going to become mo proactive on blogging and keeping y'all in the loop. The first few posts in the coming days are going to be about Valentine's Day, which is tomorrow, but it is also my birthday! As Taylor penned it, "I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22" I am turning 22 in a few hours and I am going out to dinner since my original plans were squashed by the polar vortex. Since I love makeup, I will be showing y'all what I am doing to get ready for the night and where I am going. A day or so after will be posting about the day and what I did. Also included might be a few ideas for a fun day with a group of girls to celebrate Singles Day!! I hope that you all find something that might fun and interesting. If there is anything that you want to post about from beauty to lifestyle and cooking to organization, comment or send me an email to shannonspeaks9859@gmail.com!

New Year and More!!

Hey everyone. I know that I have been absent for the past few months, but I have a good reason.

Seaside Weekend!!!

This weekend is going to be a GREAT WEEKEND!!! When this is posted, I will be in Seaside Heights for one of my favourite events to attend. The title might say I am having fun. But, I am working and enjoying time with family. Not my blood relatives but my Legion family. This weekend in POW/MIA weekend. This has been an event I attend every year since I was in sixth grade I think. I don't remember. This is an American Legion event that is open to the public. If you are in NJ and want to learn something, join in on the education!!! And it is right at the end of the boardwalk. It's a win-win I think.
It is an all night flag retirement service that has different services and readings of POWs and MIAs from different wars. This is a somber event in my opinion. The opening services are a great way to learn what goes on. This is one of few that are all night. And as an Auxilary member, I am proud to be part of a great organization.

Here is the flyer for the Watchfire
Here is a post with a detailed meaning of the table.

This is the time where I get catch up with people from SouthJersey. I do not get to see them often since I am based in Northen New Jersey. I love talking with my friends and others. If I need a break from everything, I can just wander on the boardwalk and come back.
Once I am tired and need to sleep, I go back to my hotel room that I share with my dad since it is usually the two of us. Then we head back to the beach for the closing service and breakfast after. Once everything is packed up, it is time to drive back home.
This year it is from Friday September 18th to Saturday September 19th 7pm to 7am.
You can follow my Instagram to see how everything is going at the shore :)

Hope y'all have a great weekend and I'll talk soon! xoxo

Online Education: Good or Bad?

Everyone is entitled to their opinions on everything. When 're you thinking about going back to school would you rather it in a classroom or sit at home in your jammies? For me sitting in a classroom wasn't an opinion since I was working and driving everyone around. So, I turned to online college. And I know that it has only been a month but I love online school!!!

~Halfway Through~

Allo everyone! This is a quick update and checking in. Lately, I have been very busy with school and work. So I haven't blogged in almost a month!!! I am trying to balance work, school, and this. But I am working hard on things to post and might have a huge redo and write things on a regular basis. More photos and more posts on my social media!
School is going well, midterms are over and the term ends August 23rd then I start my second term on the 31st!! I am really enjoying TESC and online learning. I think it makes life easier and still can have a crazy life; no what is going on this is flexible on your terms.
Talk to y'all soon!! :)
