Punishments

I have no children but I raised my brother and part way my sister for most of my high school life. Ive learned so much that Ive never realized but today I found a new appreciation for it . I learned the best way to get a child to listen besides running to the belt is to just talk. Simply ask what is a punishment and what do you think it entitles you too and ask questions that pertains to the whatever the child did and dont repeat questions either. There over thousands of words in the dictionary learn to use them and keep the questions coming  the whole point is to keep the child on its toes and believe me it will make them nervous and cry and think really about what they did. I noticed that this method mixed with the normal punishment gives better results than just a punishment or just getting a whoop-in. I figure that this is because when you simply whoop them they dont think about anything and they dont have to but how ever say  if you whoop them 2x and talk to them for about 15-35 minutes that mostly likely they wont do it again because for once in there life they thought about it. I dont really know how effective it will be but I use it on them and I get good results but try it once and see how it turns out.

Tips:
Remember to always dig deep when asking questions
Always make them repeat what they say in a sentence form
Never help them remember what you said why? cause they weren't listening then.
Never raise your voice( I mean you can at first, I did but I didnt have to anymore because she respects me)

btw my sis is 12 and bro 7
Have a good day and God bless you all

Scarf Shirt

So I always like a d.i.y. project and yesterday I tried the scarf shirt, I had already tried the purse and I loved it , it held a lot of my necessities.
So I dunno if Id wear it out yet I feel as though I need to tone more but for anyone whose confident enough to wear it, I say go for it.

Here is a link to different ways you can wear it. wear-your-scarf-as-shirt-tutorial

Wash n Go

So today was a great day thanks to God. Last night I read the Bible ,prayed for awhile, and meditated(which I highly believe all people should do for 5mins a day) and I woke up a happy person I ate right took my vitamins and walked to work.
So I really love how my wash n go on my weave came out today. I usually put some type of gel or curl forming product on the weave hair but today I just used Organix Cherry Blossom Ginseng 13 oz. Shampoo + 13 oz. Conditioner (Rejuvenate) (Combo Deal) and Luster's S-Curl Activator/ Moisturizer 8 oz. and it came out so soft. I got so many compliments saving how soft it looked so I think I will continue to use this simple method.
So make up look of the day . Sorry about the quality of the photo 
On my eyes I did a simple bright green and a thin layer of eye liner. I will try to mess with the lighting and reedit this post later tonight or tomorrow.

Favorite Lip Sticks


I have a growing collection of lipstick but there are two I use on a regular basis(so if you seen any of my pic most likely I am wearing them . I really like them because I dont have to put much on and because they are cheap but are good quality.

I have many goals I want to achieve which they consist of:
*getting a new job in either -Customer Service,flight attendant,as a waitress, or at a warehouse
*get a sewing machine Im really trying to launch a small business selling coin purses and jewelry and other things so having a sewing machine will help
*moving into my own apartment again that will help with my business and everything else because ill be more organized and will have SPACE. Something I dont have here.
*Getting 30 followers and posting 100 post by 2012. I know that's a lot but I am challenging myself.
*Buy a new camera. Mine got killed freshman yr of college so I have to buy a new one.

Conditioner Review

So usually when I buy from their line I get the Coconut Milk but since they have 2/$7 at Kroger, I bought one Coconut Milk and one Cherry Blossom Ginseng.

Ingredients: Water (Aqua) , Cetyl Alcohol , Behentrimonium , Cetearyl Alcohol , Cetearyl Glucoside , Glyceryl Stearate , Glycerin , Cyclopentasiloxane , Dimethicone , Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil (Jojoba) , Panthenol , Silk Amino Acids , Cherry Blossom Extract , Organic Ginseng Extract , Albumen , Hydrolyzed Rice Milk Protein , Bamboo Extract , Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) , Tetrasodium EDTA , Methylchloroisothiazolinone , Methylisothiazolinone , Citronellol , Geraniol , Hexyl Cinnamal , Limonene , Linalool , Coumarin , Parfum

Review: I liked it, but I feel it kind of coats my hair. Most likely I will buy it again and try it on my whole head and give you a more accurate review . One thing I loved about this conditioner was the smell however I thought it would smell like the Coconut Milk, which smell lasts for a very long time however this gives you a minimal smell after you wash it out.

So 3.5/5
