Just Peachy!

I've been pretty casual these days.  I'm still getting acclimated to a new area, trying to find my place, and really just re-adjust.  I've been doing more outdoorsy activities than anything else, which doesn't cause for much for more than black leggings, a t-shirt, and a pair of sneakers.   I've been getting a lot of questions and inquiries about my weight loss regiment.  Since moving to California, I've really gotten into different activities, such as hiking, U-Jam (a form of hip hop aerobics) bike riding, and even weight lifting.  I can say California lifestyle is just different.  People are outside and active all the time.  Me and hubby have had sort of a "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em attitude."  It also helps that are such a wide array of activities to enjoy.  I swear I've been doing the elliptical for 15 years at this point.  It is so much more fun to have a different sort of activity everyday instead of the same old thing day after day.  

Style Note:  Denim is such a pain in the butt to find.  These are the same Torrid Stiletto jeans that I got last year.  Thus far, they've been the best fit for me, but I have to say they don't last very long.  Out of the 3 pair I have only one pair has upheld.  On one pair the button snapped off immediately and on the other pair the seam came undone and there's a huge hole in them.  The jeans retail for about $50.  At that price, I don't mind buying a pair every 6 - 8 months.  I reviewed these last year around this time, but it took me wearing them repeatedly to learn of the quality.  I contribute the quality to being jeans, but not really jeans at the same time.  They really can't take the frequent wear that regular jeans can take.  They are soft with a lot of stretch.  

Makeup Note:  I recently discovered Milani lipstick and picked up the color Rose Hip.  I was told that it's the equivalent to MAC's Candy Yum Yum (which is always sold out and only a fraction of the price at less than $5).  I am in love with it.  I had no idea that lipstick that is so inexpensive could be so pigmented.  I'll definitely be trying the other colors.

  7. Bullying of classmates who cannot study is common, but there are essay writers where any work is written to order, at affordable prices, and on which any written work will be written for you

  8. A unique feature of the West Coast is the shift in lifestyle where people are constantly active and outdoors. The “if you can’t beat them join them” attitude demonstrates a positive and embracing approach to the new environment; diversity of activities contributes to dynamic and enjoyable fitness routine. It speaks to the vibrancy and diversity of California, which has something for everyone. In places like busy New York cities where daily routines can get boring, your experience shows why it is important to enjoy different activities. I also thought about lifestyle differences just like choices for handling unexpected situations such as nyc towed vehicle.
