and the winner is.....

Hello, hello~


Long time no see, huh?


I'm here to announce the lovely winner of my first ever giveaway - The "Sweet Things giveaway".

the list is made.........

drumroll please.....

Congratulations to Sara!

I will be mailing out your package soon :] (as in, as soon as I get my butt to the post office!)


I wanted to say thank you to everyone who entered, and I invite you all back for my next giveaway, that will be announced soon.
Here's a little sneak peak at the prizes!

Can you guess the theme??






And now for a little update on life.....
I counted all the change I had collected for a couple weeks. I've become one of those people who crazily collects all the change I can find and relieves stress by rolling it all, haha!

this was BEFORE I added this weeks tips to it!!

 I finished tolling it all today, and I had $59 in change, with $10 in pennies alone!!!! That means I had 1000 pennies!!!! Insane!!

yes, I spent 10 minutes trying to arrange it into the perfect pyramid.

I still have change leftover to roll next week!! hahaha.


This all is going into the bank to save for my trip to Japan. Ideally, I'd like to have at least $1000 in spending money, for train fair, eating out, and the most important thing - shopping!!!(hahaha)


I have only about a month left for my trip, so wish my luck!

(if all goes according to plan, I'll have another post for tomorrow!)
