Hey y'all! So today's video is all about the ways that I like to keep myself entertained while I'm traveling. It usually depends on whether or not I'm currently in school.
If I am in school:
~I will usually bring something to study
~I'll do homework
~or I'll try to get ahead in my classes
If I'm not in school, I'll be:
~Listening to music
~Making new playlists
~Making to-do lists
~Adding to my wishlist
~Writing down current and long-term goals
~Making sure that my planners are up to date
~Double checking that I copied everything correctly from my syllabi into my planners
~Editing videos
~Reading
~Watching movies
Usually, I find myself filling out my planner because it gives me peace of mind to know that I accomplished everything that I wanted to before I started my trip and it calms me down when I start to freak out about things that I have planned in the future.
Thanks for reading!
Until next time,
Danielle

Planner Pad Series Part 1: Stickers
Hey y'all! Happy Friday!
So, in today's video, I show the stickers that I use in my Planner Pad that help me to stay on top of my activities and the things that I need to take care of.
The larger, circular red, blue, and yellow stickers are actually from the dollar store (Dollar Tree). I bought more than one pack of them and cut them up individually so that I don't have to drag around an entire sheet when I take them with me somewhere. I use these stickers pretty sparingly, mainly because they pertain to when I get paid, when I order something online, and when I need to pay off my credit card.
The smaller, circular stickers that come in red, blue, green, and yellow are by Avery-Dennison. You can find them at Staples. These are used in the month section of my Planner Pad (which is at the front). The red one is to track my period, blue is for holidays, green is for trips (anything that takes over an hour), and yellow is for birthdays.
The neon green, orange, and pink stickers are all for when movies come out (I'm a huge movie person) and get used in the month section of the Planner Pad, as well.
The rectangular label stickers that are neon green, yellow, orange, and neon orange are for grocery shopping (which I tend to do on a daily basis or every other day, anyways), writing in my Fit Happens Journal (which will be explained in a separate video), meal planning for the upcoming week, and my weekly planning session. I use an X-acto knife to make these stickers smaller so that they fit on the Planner Pad a little bit better, and it's also to make them last longer.
Last, but not least, are everyone's favorites (from what I've seen), the Martha Stewart for Staples Home Office stickers. I actually haven't found a use for these yet, so if you guys have any recommendations, please let me know!
Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

Drink Station Organization!
Hey y'all!
So Monday's video was all about my Drink Station Organization. If you're wondering where I got the shelves from, they're from Aldi (only available for a limited time for $15). I believe that they are getting a bunch of 5-shelf units in their stores in the next few weeks that will also only be available for a limited time. If you're in need of storage, I recommend going to Aldi and getting some of those shelves. I went to Home Depot and Walmart just to compare products and prices, you can save around $5 if you buy the ones from Aldi.
My coffee maker is just a standard 12 cup Mr. Coffee from Target that was on sale a few months ago for about $20. The instant tea kettle (by Delfino) is from Tuesday Morning, I got it back in 2012 right before I started college and it was about $40.
The bins that I used to store all of my coffee and tea are the Sterilite Stackables in the larger size that you can get from Target, they come in 1 stack of 3 separate dividers for about $10.
I have some new videos coming up that I hope you'll all like, and don't forget that I'm now posting videos every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday, so don't forget to watch!
Thanks for reading and I'll talk to y'all later!

Bath and Body Works Semi-Annual Sale Haul!!!!!!!!
Hey y'all!
So let me begin by saying this: I have never tried Wallflowers before buying them as the main part of this haul. I always would use Glade or Airwick, but there was never enough of a scent. Currently, I only have 1 Wallflower plugged in (it's in my bathroom, the scent is Black Teakwood) and I can smell it throughout my entire apartment. So I do believe that I'm getting my money's worth.
I got multiples of the Kitchen Lemon, Mango Dragon Fruit, and the Black Teakwood because I found the smells so light and pleasing. All of the Wallflowers were $3 each, with the exception of the Coastal Sun Wallflower, which was $3.50
The Wallflower holder with the night light that I mentioned before was $5 and the one with the gold and white flower on it was around $3 or $4 (on clearance).
I'm also noticing how long the Wallflowers seem to last, which is significantly longer than their Glade or Airwick counterparts.
Overall, I would have to say that I'm happy that I took the plunge in deciding to buy them, they've become my new favorite thing.
Thanks for reading and I'll talk to y'all next week!
