Memories

I didn’t know what to write about, so I just started writing. And as usual, I started writing about you. The person who has made me smile and laugh more times than I can count, but a person who has made me cry more times than I’d like to count.

I remember all the times we sat down at the lake at the end of your street, laughing about the dumbest things anyone could imagine, and wondering what could be better than that moment. A lot of those moments I wish I hadn’t taken for granted, but I guess that happens when you believe you won’t lose them.

I remember the first time I ever saw you, the first time we talked, our first hug, and kiss. The way it all felt, I’ll probably never forget.
I remember all the jokes, and all the nights we sat out on your picnic table wrapped in blankets and sheets, I spent many nights learning about you, and I never got sick of it. I’m still not sick of learning about you, and your little ways that are unlike anyone else. Maybe it’s in the way you kinda walk and run like a penguin, or the way that being around you just calms me down, or maybe it’s those feelings that just can’t be described. That warm feeling that is just so deep down, I can only smile.

I could go on forever about you, and about us, but no one has that kind of time. I appreciate you, and all the times you’ve been there for me, and stood up for me. I resent every single fight we’ve ever had, as few as it may be, I regret a lot of my reactions, but I’ll never regret everything we’ve done and still do for each other. I don’t know where life will take us, but it’ll be hell for it to try to tear us apart.

Who are you?

Everybody can be vaguely described by one of three words: extrovert, introvert, or ambivert. Whether you are overly expressive and outgoing, shy and recluse, or just a perfect balance of both, all personality types are good in their own way. However, there are some setbacks.

Extroverts find conversing with others easy and are the can-doers of the world. They can express their thoughts and opinions and are an open book to most people. While those traits are positive, there are some setbacks to this mental state. It can be hard for them to be alone and bore easily if not with friends. It would also be hard to create a good connection with introverts, due to the latter’s lack of social interaction.

Next are the introverts. Though they don’t seem aware of their surroundings, introverts are actually very observant and analytical. They enjoy deep and meaningful conversations. The downside of being an introvert is the feeling of not fitting in and being alone. They are also misjudged due to their seemingly unnatural quietness.

Last but not least, the ambiverts. Many people deny their existence due to beliefs that there are no in between to the personalities above. While not as out there as extroverts, but not as withdrawn as introverts, ambiverts are the perfect mix of the two. They live the best of both worlds. Though it may seem like this personality type wouldn’t have any cons, the cons are in fact there. They are usually confused on what they want in life. They are seen as neutral, the grey in between black and white.

Neither personality type is perfect and have issues with their biological nature, but will make the most of their life. Extrovert, introvert, ambivert. Which one are you?

E-cigarettes :(

Electronic cigarettes, or e-cigarettes, are an alternative to smoking actual cigarettes. There is a type of e-cigarette called a juul. Juuls are black and looks like a flash drive. E-cigarettes have become increasingly popular across the U.S. Many of my friends have juuls and use them on a daily basis, but they can cause major health issues.

You can get lung cancer from smoking e-cigarettes. One pod in a juul can equal out to 20 cigarettes and on average, one pod lasts about two days so e-cigarettes aren’t always the best alternative. Even though the pod flavors taste good, they’re not good for you. A juul starter kit costs $39.99 and to re-up on the juul pods, they cost $15.99, so they’re not cheap.

Scientists still don’t know the full extent of how glycol and aerosol can affect the body in the future. There are also toxins found in the vapor from e-cigarettes that can be worse than actual cigarette smoke. In conclusion, there’s no good alternative to nicotine therefore, don’t smoke.

Save money

Are you looking for ways to save money? I hate spending money so most of my things such as shampoo is made at home.

Ingredients
– 1 organic brown egg
– 2 tablespoons of organic aloe vera gel
– 1 tablespoon of raw liquid organic honey
– optional 10 drops of lavender essential oil or your own favorite essential oil.
– tea tree is good for you if you have dandruff.
– yield one application

How to wash your hair
– put a little shampoo in the bowl with the egg
– whip some out the bowl
– put it into dry hair
– then put a shower cap or bonnet on and leave for 15 to 20 minutes before washing out.
– wash your hair like you would normally do it.

Benefits

Using eggs as a shampoo helps hair growth because it has biotin in it. This is probably one of the quickest ways to help it and it stays healthy as long as you do your daily routine. Some people may wash their hair twice a week, but for me I usually wash it three times because of weird feelings when I put products in my hair. It gives me a headache.

If you want hair growth and a awesome texture in your hair I would recommend using this. At first it will feel very nasty and maybe sticky, but you will get used to it. It saves me money because they are everyday items in my house. My mom loves plants so she has a thousand of aloe vera stems.
