*Goodbye 90210 New Season. It's Been Incredible"

It has definitely been an unforgettable five years. It may not have lasted as long as the original series, but "90210" was a life touching show. I will never forget when I made the decision to follow the series. I know it will never compare to the original, but it was fun while it lasted. The plot was breathtaking and always leaving the audience on the edge of their seats. Sure, it was strange that the whole cast slept with one another, but their battles were realistic. My heart was with Silver (Erin) aka Jessica Stroup when she fought bipolar disorder and when she discovered she had the BRCA gene. I will never forget Adrianna Tate-Duncan's (Jessica Lowndes') drug addiction and pregnancy struggles. Navid Shirazi (Michael Steger) never failed to demonstrate compassion and was close to her side. Throughout the show, he was Adrianna's "true" love. Who can forget Annie Wilson (Shenae Grimes) and Dixon Wilson (Tristan Wilds) (Annie's adopted brother) coming to town? They were the "new kids" on the block. They struggled to fit in, but made it in the end through bitches and popularity. One of those bitches was Naomi Clark (AnnaLynn McCord), who was jealous of Annie in many ways. In the end, their commonality lay in a half brother they both shared. They always battled for the same man. Annie, the most heart filled one, always seized the boy. Liam Court (Matt Lanter) was Annie's soulmate. He was the "bad and rebellious" guy on the show. The season finale proved he had a soft spot for the love of his life. I'm happy that the show ended the way it did. Everyone landed in the right arms. My only disappointment was with the end of Silver's story. I believe that she should have been in Dixon's arms. He, in fact, was her first love. I'm happy that they were together, but I wanted more romance. You can never have enough. It was sad that they didn't have any. Every single actor on this show has made a huge imprint on the lives of many viewers. Goodbye our "friends," good luck, and touché.

*I Dyed My Hair With Cranberry Juice*

Guess what! I dyed my hair with cranberry juice and it worked. The tint is not as red as I wanted, but it's good for a start. All I did was wet my hair with a little water and mixed in all natural cranberry juice. For best results, use a spray bottle. Let it sit for an hour under a shower cap and then rinse it out. 

*Cysts Can Literally Be the Death of You*

If you are a woman and are having pains in your uterus area, you should immediately schedule a gynecologist appointment. During a routine screening, a cyst may or not be found. If it's in your Fallopian tube, make sure that you tell them you want it removed right away! Sometimes, these cysts are no joke. It could be an ectopic pregnancy or an ovarian granuloma, which is extremely rare. If your gynecologist appears bothered by your request, seek a new one! Your body is way more important!

*Natural Ways to Dye Your Hair*

If you're highly allergic to hair dye, like myself, you know the icky uncomfortable feeling that it leaves behind. Not only does it blister your scalp, but it severely damages your hair. Also, it can't be healthy. The only thing that my scalp is resistant to is highlights, but I want a darker look. Red is one of the most highly allergic colors that exists. It contains the most PPD content. After some research, I found several articles that state, cranberry juice or beet juice can naturally dye your hair. You must leave the product on for an hour and then rinse it out. Before you try it, make sure your hair is a little damp. If that doesn't work for you, try beet juice. You can use the one in the store or simply crush your own. If you choose cranberry juice, make sure it's not the cocktail version. One famous actress known to brighten her strawberry blonde hair with cranberry juice is actress, Nicole Kidman. If you're looking to make your hair darker, use coffee or cocoa powder. For lighter hair, lemon juice is a must! It works. Simply put one of these natural products in your hair and use a blow drier on a low setting if you don't have time to sit for an hour. Repeat the process weekly as needed. P.S., it brightens your hair and doesn't fry it!

^*Sad News to Hear on Mother's Day*^

Well, after vacationing in a beautiful tranquil city every summer since I was twelve, I am shocked to find out some horrible news. We own an apartment on the Adriatic Sea in Falconara Marittima. It's often called the hidden jewel of Italy. The food is so rich and hormone free, the water is naturally filtered, and the people are the warmest and most welcoming. In recent years, the hidden jewel has been swarmed with foreigners. These foreigners have brought drugs to the city, disrespected it with violence, and graffiti it. They are a disgrace to their own countries. How dare they enter a foreign land and disrespect the place that feeds them? I am truly disgusted by these people. There comes a point in time where a city should decide to shut its doors. I've had enough of these disgraceful people. Throw them out and send them back. They don't appreciate anything! They are disgusting animals!!!!!!

"The Great Gatsby- The Truth About Love"


True love is never easy, never free, never priceless. There are many diverse versions of love. All types of love initiate with a mere infatuation. Some rare types of love evolve into lifelong commitments, which are supposed to build a foundation of eternal trust. Nothing ever comes easy and if it does, then it's not true love. I always believed that the best love stories involve fairytales with happy endings, but after tonight, I have faith in the opposite. Life isn't about the happy endings. It's about the experiences that alter your life forever. We all pass through thrilling events that alter our lives forever. These experiences make us stronger individuals. If you haven't gone through changes or struggles in life, you haven't lived or loved. Love is what makes life worth living. If you haven't loved, then you have lost the greatest gift from God. People think that real love involves faithfulness and devotion without mistakes. The truth is that we are all human and are incapable of living a "perfect" life. We all go through phases that involve infidelity and broken trust. If you haven't experienced any of these things, then you are the biggest liar on the planet. We'd like to think that our future husbands or wives will be the only loves of our lives. Lets face it, that is not always the case. Many people have loved before and never fully recover from that love. Certain circumstances tear them away from those people, which breaks them apart. In turn, they are forced to move on. Moving on does not mean letting go. It is often more complicated than that. "The Great Gatsby" reveals the pain that revolves around the experience and the strings that people are willing to go through for their great loves. Even when you move on, you still think about your first true love and what they accomplish in their lives. I'm not saying that your first love isn't going to be your last love, but a majority of the time, it isn't the case. You remember that person on every special day of your life. You wonder if you'll ever see them again and what will happen if you do. If your life changes and you do run into that "first love," will it affect your life? If you ever truly loved them, your breath will stop. Depending on where you are in life, you may choose to spend time with them to decipher if you want them in your life. If the outcome is positive for both parties, life will be complete. It's a 50/50 chance where no one truly wins. You must fight for what you believe in until the end. Everything will work out in the end and if it doesn't, like Jake Gatsby, you have to have hope. Hope is all you can do. If it doesn't work out, at least you've had that person for that moment. Those moments are the unforgettable memories that are kept in the realm of our hearts.

*Groupon- Hidden Treasure?*

When the economy is rough, it's great to have amazing deals. Some businesses go out of their way to accommodate potential customers. They offer many deals, so that people can feel pampered for one day. Other manufacturers list merchandise at more than half the price to accommodate individuals who can't afford the full amount. One of the most popular websites that legitimately allows people to find affordable deals is Groupon. Groupon is an easy tool with a search engine that reveals nearby, hidden bargains. You can find products at 75% off the original price. It ranges from restaurants to salons to goods and services. Other websites that offer individuals an affordable chance are amazon and eBay. They both list products that are either new, refurbished, or used at half the price. It's definitely a lifesaver when you can't afford full price. If you haven't checked any of these sites out, now is your chance. I just bought a Christian Audigier purse for $39.99. These purses usually go for $100.00. How amazing is that?
