Great hair!

In my personal experience, the answer is both yes and no. I used to go to the grocery store and buy a lot of TV dinners and boxed meals, and my bill was about $150 every other week. Last semester I barely had time to go the grocery store and ate fast food 2 - 3 times a DAY, and I was living paycheck to paycheck because of…

Breakfast is the hardest meal for me because I feel like I have too many options, lol. Some of my go-to meals are: 1. A smoothie 2. Cereal w/ skim milk and a banana 3. Plain oatmeal with a tbsp of peanut butter or apple butter 4. Fruit salad w/ toasted english muffin 5. A protein bar (when I wake up late and have to rush…

"YOLO" 1. It's stupid. 2. It's constantly used as an excuse to do stupid things. 3. It's hardly ever used correctly. 4. It's stupid. Used incorrectly: I just worked out without stretching first! YOLO. How it should be used: I always put on my seatbelt when I get in the car. YOLO.

I made the broccomole this afternoon, and it was GOOD! (I would consider it an acquired taste, though). I'm a mess in the kitchen, and even I didn't screw this up. If you're interested in seeing what it looks like and such, I have pictures of it on my blog:…

I was diagnosed with Chronic Migraine Syndrome when I was 14, and a year later I was hospitalized for about a week because they get to the point where I lose my vision, can't walk, and am practically a vegetable lying in bed. For a few years after my hospitalization, I would go to the doctor twice a day to get shots that…

I live four hours away from my dogs, haven't seen them in nearly two months, and I'm currently missing them like crazy. Hold on to your seats for cuteness overload. My 8 year old papillon, Daisy Belle My 5 year old schnoodle, Molly (in the midst of preventing bedmaking) My 2 year old (?) rescue, that we assume is shih tzu…

Bro, do you even lift?

Dear Diary, mood: apathetic.

I've never been to Boston, but just by looking at pictures and seeing snippets of the city on House Hunters, I really feel like it's where I'm meant to end up one day. The closest I've ever been to the East Coast is Pennsylvania, but I've just had this unexplainable feeling like it's where I belong. I'm hoping that getting…

I'm currently working toward my dream of being an interior designer and architect. I want to move to the East coast, like Connecticut or Massachusetts...hell, I want to live anywhere but Indiana. But as much as I want city life, I still like having the option of getting away to my parents' farm for the weekend. I enjoy…

THIS. Made my day.

Where do I even begin? haha. I have this thing with numbers - no I idea why or how it started - where my TV volume always has to be an even number, the volume on my car radio has to be divisible by 5, and my seat number in classrooms has to end in 3 or 8. I also have an extreme phobia of birds, but I know exactly why and…

This is the smoothie that I've been making quite a bit lately. And by "quite a bit," I mean once or twice a week. If I'm lucky. Smoothies take time, and I'm terribly lazy. Peanut Butter and Banana Oatmeal Smoothie: 1/8 cup of oats (blend first into a very fine powder) 1 banana, sliced and frozen 2 tbsp. of peanut butter (I…

I performed in the the 2008 Walt Disney World Christmas parade (once with the Broadway cast of Mary Poppins and once with the All-American dance team), and during the filming of Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, one of the aerial cameras broke so we had a lot of standing around while it was being repaired.

1. Greek Yogurt 2. Unsweetened Applesauce 3. Blueberries 4. Hummus 5. Soy Milk

Thanks for the replies everyone! This makes so much more sense than the science lecture I was given. I'm not a biology/chemistry major anymore for a reason: I just don't understand it! lol, I need the simplified version.

I'm also a junior in college, and while in decent shape in high school (maybe 5-10 pounds overweight) I ballooned up in college. I have about 15-20 pounds to lose, and I'll see from there. I buy my own groceries and try to make good choices, but I fail at cooking. It's all a learning process, and after about a week and a…

I was diagnosed with Chronic Migraine Syndrome when I was 13, and it's been a long road to figuring out what's wrong with me. My dentist thought it was my jaw alignment, so I spent 2 years going to jaw therapy (it helped some). My pediatrician thought it was hormonal, so I have been on birth control ever since (they later…

A sense of humor Intelligence (I love it when guys talk about smart stuff, even if I don't understand what they're saying) Outdoorsy type And people think I'm weird about this one, but my favorite physical feature on men is their calves...

"You're Making My Dreams Come True" or "Private Eyes" by Hall & Oates...in fact, the first one is played all the time on my work's radio station, and a few days ago I was full on busting a move to it while I thought I was alone in the cleaning closet...then I turned around to find my manager had been staring at me the…

I was actually just about to post a topic on this, and then I saw you already had one. I have always consumed A LOT of sugar, to the point that one might even consider me a sugar addict (I have 47 of the 50 symptoms). I've been trying to eat a lot of fruits with natural sugars to beat my cravings while I completely…

I was never good at eating breakfast, but it's now become one of my favorites meals of the day. Typically after grocery shopping (because the food is fresh), I'll have a fruit salad with a toasted english muffin. Tuesdays and Thursdays (days I'm in class all day long), I usually have a bowl of FiberOne cereal (I like the…

I'm in college as well, and grocery shopping was particularly hard when I was living off my parents before I got a job. I'm very thankful that my grocery store (Marsh) does a 10% student discount on Saturdays, which is super helpful in saving money. You might want to look around and see if a grocery store near you does a…

Thanks for the advice, but it's really not that big of a deal anymore. I tried brewing it from natural tea leaves, but I didn't like the taste and I can't stand hot/warm drinks (I also have a strange aversion to ice...) Tea is dehydrating anyway, so I might as well just drink the water :)

Some people say this, others say that...it's all about who you want to believe. Sure, some say it is linked to cancer, but so is nearly everything on this planet. On the other hand, many many people unknowingly have an allergy to aspartame, which usually shows signs like IBS and Restless Leg Syndrome. If you are prone to…

I'm a working college student, so it's usually whatever is quick and easy. I currently have corned beef in the slow cooker (which is torture to smell when you're home all day), and I'll probably just change up the sides for the next few days (carrots tonight, snap peas tomorrow, baked potato on Wed., etc.) I don't really…

I do have a blog, but it's mostly about my life and such. It's more like my diary, and can be quite therapeutic when there's too much going on in my head. However, my last post was about my weight loss struggles and the body image issues I've had. http://www.krystalwitha-k.blogspot.com
