Cafe #6: Mini Chocolate Bananas

Ring ring! The Cafe has another Recipe added to its menu! Like the Peanut Butter Cup Recipe, it involves Chocolate. Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, who doesn't like Chocolate? Well...maybe the ones who are allergic to it, but that's only because of their allergies, although some with Chocolate allergics might still have a liking for Chocolate. Almost everywhere you go you'll see examples of Chocolate on commercials, billboards, and other advertisements. That's why Chocolate is one of the most popular Candies around. However, in addition to Chocolate, there's another Ingredient we're going to add to this Recipe: Bananas! Yep, who goes Bananas when they are near or eat...Bananas? I used to..kinda...sorta..well not a lot. Well, Monkeys do soo....let's continue. What do Chocolate and Bananas have to do with this Recipe? Besides the Peanut Butter Cup Recipe, I just remember that I have another Dessert Recipe as well. Like the Peanut Butter Recipe, I first created this when I was 14 and it's been a scrumptious, tempting, and rich Recipe ever since, which is why it's going to be part of the menu on the Cafe. Therefore, in today's newest Recipe entry, we're going to make Homemade Mini Chocolate Bananas! Let's get started.

Serving Size: It varies. But if you're cooking for 1-2 people, use just 1 Banana. For more than 1-2 people, just double the Recipe and make sure you have MORE CHOCOLATE than Bananas. For example, if your cooking for a Family, use 3-4 Bananas and 2-2 1/2 Bags of Melted Chocolate Chips.

Ingredients:

1 Bag of Dark Chocolate Chips

1 Banana

1 Pair of Tongs

1 Measuring Cup

1 Knife

1 Plate

1 Sheet of Wax Paper

Optional: Rainbow Sprinkles (Or any type of Sprinkles of your choice)

Toothpicks


Directions:

1) Pour 1 1/2 Cup of Chocolate Chips into a Measuring Cup. Place it in the Microwave for 1 minute or until the Chips are melted.

2) After taking it out the Microwave, peel your Banana and cut it into slices.

3) Take each slice with your Tongs, and dip it into the melted Chocolate. Then, place them on a Plate with Wax Paper. Repeat this step until all your Bananas are covered in Chocolate.

4) THIS STEP IS OPTIONAL: If you wish, you can sprinkle any Sprinkles or other toppings to make your Chocolate Bananas taste better. Also, if you don't want your hands to get dirty while snacking on each piece, place each Toothpick into each Chocolate Banana Piece before the next step.

5) Place your Chocolate Bananas into the Refridgerator for 2-3 hours. Here's a tip: You can actually place them in the Freezer for them to ferm quicker for 1-1/2 hour.

6) After they are finished ferming, take them out the Refridgerator (Or Freezer). Bon appetite!

Cafe #5: Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

Ring Ring! The Cafe has another Recipe added to it's menu! Before we begin, IF YOU HAVE A PEANUT ALLERGY, IGNORE THIS RECIPE BECAUSE IT INVOLVES PEANUTS. I'm sure a majority of you all have heard of and tasted Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Besides Kit Kats, Reese's are one of my favorite Chocolate Candies to munch on. The cream, the sharp Chocolate edges, as well as Reese's Pieces and the Cereal is one of the reasons why we still devour this Candy today. But what does Reese's have to do with this Recipe? Well, I just happen to stumble upon a Recipe for Reese's, specifically their Peanut Butter Cups. I first created this Recipe when I was 14 and have been loving it ever since. That's why I decided that it's going to be part of the menu of the Cafe. Therefore, in today's new Recipe entry, we're going to make Homemade Peanut Butter Cups! Let's get started.

Cafe #4: Shrimp Scampi With Pasta

Ring ring! The Diary has another new Recipe! Before we began, if any of you guys are allergic to Fish, ignore this Recipe because it involves it....specifically Shrimp. Who doesn't like Shrimp? Shrimp is like Bacon, you can use it in almost anything! But don't go crazy or else you'll be dipping your French Fries into your Milkshakes like I do every time we head to Steak n Shake. Anyway, what Recipe are we creating with Shrimp in this entry? Shrimp Scampi, we're also going to cook Pasta to go with it. I recently created this Recipe on Saturday, and it turned out pretty well. All you need is patience, focus, and relaxation for this Recipe. Therefore, in today's new Recipe entry, we're going to cook Shrimp Scampi with Pasta! Let's get started.

Serving size: About 3-4 people. Cooking for more than 3-4 people? Like the Chili Recipe, just double it up and be sure to add more Shrimp than the Pasta.

Shrimp Scampi (Ingredients):

1 Pack of Medium-sized Frozen Shrimp (I used the Shrimp Scampi from Sam's Club entitled SeaPak)

1/2 Cup of Cilantro

1/8 Cup of Lime Juice

1/4 Cup of Diced White Onions

1/2 Cup of Green Pepper

3 Sprinkles of Lemon Pepper (Seasoning)

4 Sprinkles of Chives (Seasoning)

4 Sprinkles of Parsley (Seasoning)

3 Sprinkles of Parmesan Cheese (Seasoning)

3 Sprinkles of Black Pepper

Cap full of Olive Oil (Or you can use Canola Oil like I did)

Pasta:

1/2 Box of Penne Pasta

1/2 Cup of Mozzarella Cheese

4 Sprinkles of Parmesan Cheese (Seasoning)

4 Sprinkles of Black Pepper

Cap full of Olive Oil (Or you can use Canola Oil like I did)

1 Medium Pot (I used a Dutch Pot)

1 Strainer (To drain the Pasta)

2 1/2 Cups of Water


Directions:

1) Pour 2 1/2 Cups of Water and a cap full of Olive Oil into a Medium Pot. Let it Boil for 10-12 minutes.

2) After the Water is finished boiling, pour 1/2 Box of Penne Pasta into the Pot for 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally.

3) While the Pasta is boiling, pour a cap full of Olive Oil into the Skillet and preheat it for 2-5 minutes.

4) While the Skillet is preheating, arrange the frozen Shrimp in the Skillet and let it cook.

5) Add 1/2 cup of Cilantro and 1/2 cup of Green Pepper into the Skillet and let it set.

6) While the Shrimp is cooking, add 3 sprinkles of Parmesan Cheese into the Pasta. Keep stirring occasionally.

7) Add 1/8 cup of Lime Juice and 1/4 of Diced White Onions to the Shrimp. Turn the Shrimp to make sure both sides are cooked.

8) Continue to let the Pasta boil for 5 more minutes or to your liking.

9) Add a dash of Lemon Pepper, a dash of Chives seasoning, a dash of Parsley seasoning, Parmesan Cheese, and Black Pepper to the Skillet. Stir it around for 30 seconds.

10) Take the Pasta off the Stove and pour it into the Strainer. Pour the Pasta into a serving size bowl and mix the Pasta with Mozzarella Cheeze and Black Pepper.

11) Take the Skillet off the Stove and pour the Shrimp Scampi into the same bowl as the Pasta. Mix it around for 30 seconds.

12) Bon appetit!

Cafe #2: Trail Mix

NOTE: IF YOU ARE SUFFERING FROM A PEANUT OR WHEAT ALLERGY,  USE THE SUBSTITUTES BELOW. I should've done that for the post as a heads up for people who have certain allergies, I'll start with this post and work my way up.

Who here has ever tried Trail Mix before? If you haven't, you're not missing out much since I only ate the M&N's from it anyway. I'm not the typical person to eat Nuts on a daily basis, I don't even like Nuts. Why? They're too nutty and too salty. Well so are the French Fries at Mcdonalds, but they don't make me spit it out after 5 seconds....duuuuh! That's why I've created my own Trail Mix recipe to share with you all.

Like the Omelette in a Cup recipe, you can decorate this however you want, I'll just use the ingredients I use in this favorite personal recipe of mine. And if you have any allergies, I'll list the substitutes you can use because I don't want anyone to feel left out when trying something new.

Serving size: About 2-3 people. If you are making it for more than 2-3 people, double the Recipe and make sure to add more Chocolate Chips than Cheerios.

Ingredients: (As stated above, you can either use the Ingredients below or some of your own).

2 Cups of Cheerios (Allergic to Wheat? Use Kix as a sub)

1/2 Cup of Peanut Butter (Allergic to Peanut Butter? Use either Cookie Butter or Coconut Butter)

1/2 Cup of Honey

2 Cups of Dark Chocolate Chips

(If your changing a certain amount of the Recipe, make sure you have the same amount of Chocolate Chips as the Cheerios)

1 Spoon (You might need 2 since this Recipe is kinda of sticky)

1 Bowl

1 Plastic Container

Optional: 1 Knife (To use to scrap the Peanut Butter off the Spoon)

Directions:

1) Pour 2 Cups of Cheerios into a Bowl.

2) Pour 1/2 Cup of Honey into the Bowl.

3) Stir the Ingredients for about 5 minutes.

4) Pour 1/2 Cup of Peanut Butter into the Bowl (You might wanna use an extra Spoon or Knife to scrap it off the Spoon).

5) Stir the Ingredients for another 5 minutes as well.

6) Pour 2 Cups of Dark Chocolate Chips into the Bowl.

7) Stir the Ingredients for 2-3 minutes.

I'll give you two options you can use for the last steps of the Recipe, I highly recommend the first option because, in my opinion, it'll taste better.

Option #1:

1) Place the Ingredients into a Plastic Container for about 2-3 hours or until it's chilled to your liking.

Option #2: Place the Ingredients into a Plastic Container for 30 minutes or until it's chilled to your liking.

Whichever option you choose, bon appetit!

Cafe #1: Omelette In a Cup

Hey, everyone, I've decided to add my own Recipes to the Blog! I know I know, the Blogette looks very different, so different that it even has a new name. I'll explain in an upcoming post, but right now let's focus on a Recipe that I've created that you guys can make at Home without the use of a Stove: Omelette In a Cup. Check it out! Also, "Diaro Del Caffe" translates from "Cafe Diary."

What's the most important meal of the day? Breakfast. Who doesn't like Breakfast? It makes you feel perky after having to drag yourself out of Bed and the Washroom in the morning, and it gives you something to look for when you walk into the Kitchen in the morning. The most common Food that people eat for Breakfast are Eggs, this is because it's been done for centuries, it's rich in protein, and it's healthy. There are numerous of dishes you can create from Eggs for not only for Breakfast but for Lunch and Dinner too. But we'll focus more on the Breakfast part. A few of the Egg Dishes you can have for Breakfast are Sunny-Side Up, Scrambled Eggs, Eggs over Easy, Eggs Benedict, and Omelettes. Did you know you could make Eggs in the Microwave?  Therefore, in today's Recipe, we're going to discuss how to make an Omelette in a Cup.

The good thing about creating an Omelette is that it is one of those foods that you can decorate however you want, and it'll still taste good, take Pizza and Tacos for an example. You have the option of including whatever you want in your Omelette, but I'll just list the Ingredients I use when I make mine. By the way, if you're making it for more than one person, just double the recipe.

Ingredients: (As stated above, you can either use the Ingredients below or some of your own).

1/2 Cup of Chopped Spinach
1/2 Cup of Chopped Tomatoes
1/2 Cup of Chopped Mushrooms
1 1/2 Cup of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1 Egg (Sometimes I use 2, depending on my Appetite)
2 Sprinkles of Black Pepper
2 Sprinkles of Adobo Seasoning
1/4 Cup of Milk
1 Cup (I recommend either a Coffee Cup or a small Plastic Container, it doesn't necessarily have to be a Cup)
1 Fork
Optional: Egg Whisk

Directions:

1) Crack open an Egg and pour it into your Cup. Then, pour 1/4 cup of Milk inside the Cup.

2) Sprinkle some Black Pepper and Adobo Seasoning inside the Cup.

3) Stir the Cup with a Fork or a Whisk for around 10 seconds.

4) Pour half of 1 1/2 Cup of Mozzarella Cheese in the Cup, keep the other half for later.

5) Pour 1/2 Cup of Spinach into the Cup.

6) Pour 1/2 Cup of Tomatoes into the Cup.

7) Pour 1/2 Cup of Mushrooms into the Cup.

8) Pour the other half of the 1 1/2 Cup of Mozzarella Cheese from before at the Top.

9) Slightly mix the Ingredients, but make sure the Cheese stays at the top.

10) Place the Cup into the Microwave for 1 minute.

11) Take the Cup out of the Microwave, mix it a bit more, and put it back in the Microwave for another 45 seconds or until the Egg starts to rise.

12) Take the Cup out of the Microwave, and enjoy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEYONCE!

Hello everyone, I just came on here to post a happy birthday message to the Queen Bey who's been slaying the music industry for about 18 years? Anyways, HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEYONCE! May all your birthday wishes come true, I love your family, your Mom, Solange, Blu Ivy, Jay-Z, and more! The first song I ever listened to by you was "Bills, Bills, Bills" when you were with Kelly and Michelle when I was a Baby. First I cried, then I stopped until that song came on. Anyways, ENJOY YOU'RE BIRTHDAY AND KEEP SLAYING G!

All About Me II

Hello everyone, good Saturday we are having today huh? I've decided to create an updated "All About Me" page to bring the latest on the well..."All About Me" to you. Don't worry, there's going to be a new "season" of the Blogette next week. Stay tuned and enjoy this updated "All About Me."

For those who've kept up on my Blogettes or who know me personally, you should know that I'm 18 now since my birthday was May 24th, therefore I am no longer under my Parents' Jurisdiction...meaning MY LIBERATION TO THE WORLD BEGAN! I graduated 3 months ago, in College, and started last week. Studying? Psychology since my goal is to become a Psychologist...either Clinical or a School one. Cats are still my life, my favorite color is still Green, and I'm still down with the Italian Cuisine. Wanna take me out to Dinner? Let's do something Italiana! Or, we can get some Burgers since...who doesn't like Burgers? Favorite Hobby? Still Nintendo, although I don't play it as much anymore. Otherwise, it would be web surfing or just plain o'l shopping. Wanna head to Michigan Ave?

I still live in Chicago with my Mom and the Pets. I still take my walks every week, and workout as well. Dating? Nope, still haven't found that RIGHT ONE yet. It might take a few years, but it better be worth my while. Music? Only the one and only Queen B, AKA BEYONCEEEEEEEE! YES! I literally grew up with her Music since she was with Kelly and Michelle. My Mom used to tell me when I was a baby that when I used to cry, I always stopped when their song "Bills, Bills, Bills" came on. CAN YOU PAY MY BILLS? CAN YOU PAY MY TELEPHONE BILLS? CAN YOU PAY MY AUTOMO-BILLS? IF YOU DID, THEN MAYBE WE COULD CHILL.

And, that's basically it for now. Although, I will give you a fun fact about me: I was supposed to have been born in June (Hence my name and because my Mom always adored that name), when May hit so did I. I think June 24th was supposed to have been that date. Oh well, I like May 24th better. <3 Not only that, but she decided to add 2 Ns in my name because she didn't want my name to get mixed up with all the other Women with my name and because...she wanted it to be unique. Thanks, Mama!

The South Shore Beach Picnic

Good morning/evening everyone, Jizzy's back with another new Blogette post today! See, I told you guys I wouldn't keep you hanging! I got some new wrap about yesterday because yesterday guess where I went? To South Shore, specifically the Cultural Center! So beautiful, peaceful, enjoyable, runnable, etc. I can't really remember the last time I was out late on a Saturday night, but whenever it was (or if I ever was), so far this is the latest I've been out by myself. I'm a Grown Woman, that's normal right? Well, not for someone who is still new to Adulthood. At least that's just MY opinion. Anyways, in today's Blogette, we're going to discuss what happened when I went to the Beach Picnic at the Cultural Center in South Shore. Check it out!

We've actually been planning this since like a month ago, which is another reason why the Travel Logs couldn't continue because it was either budget for the Picnic or continue the Logs. Like I said guys, Family and Friends come first, not the other way around. Besides, I've been kind of losing views on here anyway. Anyways, one of my friends had an idea of us getting together for a Picnic. Me being the person I am, I had to say yes. Well, no let me rephrase that. I actually said "HELL YEAH!" I think there was originally going to be at least 15 people that were coming, then a couple of weeks ago it turned down to 12. Then 2-3 days ago 11, then 10, and I'll explain the rest on the way. In order to have this Picnic, you gotta have some grub. Therefore, I was in charge of buying Fruit Snacks, Sandwiches, Chips,....and that damn Cooler. Therefore, I got the Snacks from Jewel's (BUY 1 GET 1 FREE BABY), Sandwiches from Walmart (Yeah, dude at Sam's Club said that they weren't there for "seasonal" purposes, yeah you guys need a new Manager), Chips from Mariano's....let me tell you about the chips. I usually receive emails from Mariano's about the latest sales and I just happened to need Chips for the Picnic. Saturday only, they were having a sale on a 32 Pack for $6.99, regularly $9.99! You can't beat that with a stick unless it's the new Manager at Sam's Club who made me go to Walmart for Nancy's Deli. And the Cooler, Target, on sale for $3.49. Yeah, it was a foam cooler, but I was pretty short on the fetty and I'm saving up for my Halloween Costume and accessories. But, at least that gave me an opportunity to decorate it and add hashtags on it. #JUNESCOOLER, #ICEICEBABY, #COOLLIKEDAT, #CHILLLIKEDAT, #DOWNLIKEDAT, #ROLLLIKEDAT. I'm "June" like dat. Lol, yeah some of the hashtags came from that song "Cool Like That" and well...you oughta know where "Ice Ice Baby" came from. :P

Oh, I almost forgot. The day before the Picnic (a.k.a Fantastic Friday), I had to make another trip to Jewel's for some Ice. No, I didn't get the small pack. No, not the Chicago Classic or whatever it's called. I got the Big Girl, the 20-pound bag. Good thing I brought that Shopping Cart, otherwise I would've been at Cook County Hospital about a half of block before I got Home. I also had to go to Dollar Tree to get a Salad Spoon since they ran out of Ice Scoopers. Why didn't I go to Target? Three reasons: 1. I don't have a License, therefore I don't have a car. 2. Even though I live in a fair/fair neighborhood, the Target where I live isn't in one of the best parts there. 3. I know you guys hear me talk about how I walk this and there, but ummm...no. Just no. Why didn't you catch the Bus----JUST... FREAKING...NO.

The next day (a.k.a Saturday), it was time to get packing and bouncing! How was I going to South Shore? Lyft! Lyft is basically like Uber, but it's 2x cheaper and I think it's a bit more convenient. And guess what else was unique about me getting there? One of my buddies (I'ma call him Ombre since I have to keep everyone's name's confidential) sacrificed his time to take me there. THANKS, OMBRE IF YOU'RE READING THIS POST! GOD BLESS YOU! He was even nice enough to help me carry my bags inside the entrance. You can keep that $5 tip, my Brotha! Bye! Now let me tell you guys about South Shore. It's basically, well literally the south parallel of where I live. I live on North Lake Shore Drive, South Shore is South Lake Shore Drive. The Cultural Center is the landmark and basically the symbol of South Shore. Here are some fun facts that I found out: They filmed Blues Brothers at the Cultural Center (That place where a bunch of Cop Cars and where they performed, yep!) and former President Obama's Wife Michelle Obama is from South Shore.

Man, I felt like a Southern Belle yesterday. I wore my beautiful Sunhat, Lace Gloves, Black/White Dress, Nails and Toe Nails decorated, Makeup down pat, and let's not forget the Shades. I was slaying so hard, that there was a Wedding there and one of the Ladies asked me if I was part of the Wedding. No sorry, but if I was, I would totally be a Bridesmaid and catch that Boutique. A bunch of Men was scoping me out, old enough to be my Fathers. I got a bunch of compliments about my hat, I got so bored while waiting. I was so scared that the Ice was going to melt since a couple of Jinxs happened before I left the House. I broke my Champagne Glass and the Spoon for the Ice. I didn't even know if the Picnic was still going on or not since I was literally the first one there and because I haven't heard back from anyone....until like 5-10 minutes later. One of my friends called me through Messenger and asked me if I was at the Cultural Center, I said yeah and she said she was coming to the entrance. A few minutes later, she came with her Mama. Nice to meet you, you have a very nice Daughter! Instead of just waiting inside the Cultural Center, we walked around the Butterfly Garden/Pond/whatever you want to call it and obviously, we saw Butterflies....and Bees...I should've put on my Bug Spray....I am not a fan of Bees. Since we were still waiting for a couple of more people to show up, we went near the Picnic Area and we basically just started eating. Then I explained to my Buddy about how racist Laundry and Pool is. Seriously, why hasn't this been taken to justice? You can't mix the colors with the whites? The whites get the hot water and the colors get the cold water! And Pool? The white ball knocks down all the colored balls! IT'S A CONSPIRACY PEOPLE, CONSPIRACY! Watch that Boomerang movie and you'll see what I mean!

Still waiting, watching people BBQ, smelling it, getting thirsty (OMG, YOU'RE MAMA IS SO NICE FOR BUYING US DRINKS), waiting MORE, we just decided to dump the ice and just leave. I let them take some of the food Home though, I wasn't gonna let this go to waste...shoot. After they left, I explained to Mama (My Mom) what happened and she told me that I should just call a Lyft and just leave. Yeaaah....I was going to do that, but then I thought about what happened if I left and the other people showed up. I usually don't like to be out this late (It was around 6:55 or something), especially if it's on the South Side unless it's South Shore, Hyde Park, or when we go to my Grandma's House in Harvey. So, I stayed and waited. One of the workers there, who's a Cook asked me what I was waiting for since she's been scoping me out since I came here. I told her for a Picnic and she told me she was just asking since she was a bit concern. Thanks for being concerned, Ms. Cooking Lady! I didn't know this place had a Kitchen...I should've asked her to make me a Burger and some fries. After all that waiting, guess what? My other friends finally came. Hey guys, it's been two months! So glad to see ya, I MISSED YOU!

We talked, walked around to the Beach, came in the Water (Alright, so since when did the water become so warm? Isn't it usually cooler at night due to the lack of Sunshine?), and I gave them the Chips, Fruit Snacks, and most of the Nancy's Deli Sandwiches. I can't believe they rode their Bikes all the way here, at least they were able to make it here safely, I'll admit I was worried. After we said our goodbyes, I called for a Lyft. Nah, Ombre couldn't come and pick me up because he had to attend a Family event, but guess who came? Bryant from New Orleans! Nice to meet you, Bry! Welcome to Chicago! I also called Mama up since she wanted to stay on the Phone for safety purposes and we all talked. So Bryant, how's the Beignets? He grew up on them! What about the Creole food? He said it wasn't half had, as well as the Gumbo. Is it true about what they said about the Witches? He said they weren't true! YES! Now I can watch Candyman II and Eve's Bayou without Teddy! After Bryant dropped me off, I asked him to give me his number just in case I need a Lyft. Thanks, Bryant! Then I came Home, happy as a jack stick, remembered I had to wash the dishes but put it off until this morning, and reflect on the memories of the day! Woohoo! Let me tell you guys, I've never spent this much money on a bunch of people before. In fact, let's tally up on how much I spent on this big shibang.  If you see numbers with the "x" in front of it, that indicates the quantity I bought it in. By the way, the price and the total might not be accurate since this is only an estimate. In Chicago, tax is basically 10%.

Jewel's:

1x Fruit Snacks $2.99 (With tax $3.31) (Like I said before, it was a buy 1 get 1 free, therefore I bought 2 boxes and I already had some at my House anyway)

1x 20 pound Bag of Ice $3.99 (With tax, $4.40, IT WAS SO HEAVY OMG)

Mariano's:
1x 32 Party Mix Chips: Sale $6.99 (With tax $7. I believe it was $7.70, reg $9.99 (Not bad, right?)

Walmart:
2x Nancy's Deli Spirals $7.98, $8.77 with tax (Since I bought 2 packs, I paid $17.54)

Target:
1x Cooler Sale $3.49, reg $3.99 (With tax, it was $3.83)

Dollar Tree:

1x Plastic Bags $1.00 (With tax, $1.10)
1x Salad Spoon $1.00 (With tax, $1.10)

Lyft Ride:
My House to South Shore Cultural Center: $28.19 (Thanks again, Ombre!)
South Shore Cultural Center to my House:
$26.90

I did the math and....HOT DAMN (Excuse my language on this post), I spent about $94.07 for the Picnic. That's only if you include the Lyft. Otherwise, without the Lyft, the total would be $38.98.

But overall, it was worth it and even though a few change of plans and a few mishaps happened, I had fun! So that's what happened at the Beach Picnic yesterday, thanks for reading this post! I've also managed to take a couple of Selfies and some Pictures of the Cultural Center and the Butterfly Garden. Have a great day!

*UPDATE*

Hey guys, sorry to leave you guys hanging for 2-3 weeks! I've been pretty busy with my personal life such as with my Friends, Family, and of course prepping myself for College. By the way, I start in 3 weeks, woohoo! So in today's Blogette, we're going to go over some updates that I want to discuss with you guys and how this Blog is going to affect my time in College. Keep scrollin'.

I'm no longer using the cheap Camcorder to film my Travel Logs. Why? Well, because it was a bit inconvenient for me to waste 3-4 hours to let you guys wait to see a 5-12 minute Youtube video. And because of the lack of views, I got on each video. However, if you all are interested in purchasing it, my Mom listed it on eBay for a reasonable price. Here's the link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/362056448232?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649

Even though I have the last two (or possibly 3 or 4) planned for this month, I'm not sure if I can travel to all of them, maybe just 2 with my schedule jammed up with personal business to take care of with my Mom. In the meantime, did you guys check out my Avon page? If you didn't, you still have time and you won't be disappointed when you click the page! I also posted a "How-to" with Avon under my Avon page. 

Because of College in 3 weeks, there might be a decrease in the Blogs because my education comes first when trying to achieve the priorities I set for my life. Become a Psychologist, get a Convertible, a Condo, and vice versa. Believe it or not, I'm aiming for a Doctoral, and I'll keep going no matter how long it'll take. I can wait 8 years. And if you guys want to do the same, go for it! If you don't, that's fine too, everyone's judgment is different. Before we continue, the type of Psychologist I want to become is a Clinical Psychologist because I want to work with Kids. 

Any more updates I come up with will be included in this post. But right now, this is all I have to tell you guys. Therefore, I hope you all have a blessed and peaceful Wednesday, thank you!

UPDATE 8/7/17:

Sorry guys, I'm not going to be able to finish the Travel Logs for the rest of the month. Sorry, but my Family and Friends come first and I have to use my time and Budget for them. I hope you understand.

The Chicago History Museum/Gold Coast Trip

The Blogette Now Sells Avon, LOOK BELOW FOR MORE INFO THEN CLICK THE LINK!

Happy Thursday, everyone! I've got some good news that I've been keeping as a secret since last month and you've probably already known it by now from reading the title of this Blogette: Avon is now available on the Blogette for you guys to buy or sell. I became a Rep two days ago, but I didn't have much time to share it until now. And now, we can move on to the next steps on how you guys can either purchase your Avon items from me or sell it yourself, as well as a little background history on how I became involved with Avon. Here we go!

I was involved with Avon every since I was a little Girl because my Mom has always been a Rep with Avon, she's been selling it since before I was born. Before the internet became more convenient and advance as it is now, we used to have to go to a local Avon district to collect the Avon boxes that she would order online instead of having the boxes delivered to our Home. In addition to selling Avon, she would purchase me Kid's items from Avon such as playsets, Stuffed Animals, Kid's Bubble Bath, etc. We even used to go to Avon meetings so she could get more tips on how to advance to President's Club with Avon. Nowadays, instead of going to a local district to pick up her Avon boxes, she has them delivered to our Home instead. Instead of doing the irritating door-to-door selling, she has "E-customers", meaning online customers that can purchase her products through her website. She no longer gets me the "Kiddy" items, she now gets me the Women's Clothes, Jewelry, Nail Polish, Perfume, etc. You guys can also purchase from her as well, she's an excellent Rep who's been in business since the 90's.

When you first become a Rep for Avon, it might be scared for others at first if you're not familiar with the objectives and lack of support. But not to worry, if you keep your head high and believe in yourself hard enough while brainstorming different ways to gain your customers, you can advance to President's Club and make enough money to purchase things like TVs or even a Car. And when you first become a Customer for Avon, it might become addicting for others because of the different varieties there are on the website. That's why I'm going to list two sections on this post for tips on selling Avon and buying Avon. You can read which either one you want, read both sections if you want. But whichever section you feel is your choice, have fun!

Selling Avon: The #1 rule of selling Avon is this: NEVER FALL BEHIND. In other words, always make an order at least once a month. Despite the fact that the youravon.com website states that you have to make an order every two weeks (Yes, it did take my Mom a long time to realize that you didn't), you don't, well unless you want to but it really depends on your own judgment. The good thing about Avon is that you can create your own hours like Uber, you're basically self-employed.
Also, make sure that you connect your bank account (If you don't have one, maybe you should start thinking about creating one now) on your Avon site so you can collect profit from your customers. And the best part about it is that you can sell your Avon through the YourAvon App that you can find in the App Store or the Play Store on your Phone. I highly recommend that you download those Apps when selling Avon for convenience purposes. Here's a scenario: Say if you're going to visit your relatives or a friend and you wanted to check up on your Avon. You would then go on your YourAvon App on your Phone because someone could've purchased some Avon from you and you could use that money to pay off something such as a Netflix Bill, Phone Bill, and vice versa. And use the money you save to spend on yourself or someone you love. Or when you want to purchase something through Avon on your Phone, you can download the regular Avon App as well. How do I sign up to become an Avon Rep? Well, you can become one by clicking this link to the https://www.youravon.com website to get started. After completing the steps, you'll automatically have an "E-store" which is where your Customers can purchase Avon directly under your name instead of buying it from the regular Avon website. Here's the link to my E-store for an example of what an E-store looks like: https://junnesclay.avonrepresentative.com/ What you'll also find when you get to the homepage of the youravon.com website are pages to help you become a successful Rep such as Avon University, Sales Leadership, Rewards & Recognition, and my favorite, the Web Office. If you guys are fluent in Spanish, you can select "Spanish" as one of the languages you speak to attract customers who speak it. You can add your Customers to your Avon by going under "Web Office", then "Address Book", and click "Customers & Groups." So far, these are the main tips of selling Avon that I've learned to stick with. I hope you guys can do the same as well! Be sure to check out my Avon page! I'll post it on the right-hand corner of the Blog or you can click it from reading the "Selling Avon" section. Thanks!

Purchasing Avon: When purchasing Avon, I highly recommend that you purchase it through PayPal with QuikPay, just in case something fishy happens. If you don't have a PayPal account, I highly recommend that you create one before you start making purchases with Avon. Or if your under 18 and want to purchase Avon, find someone who's over 18 with a Paypal account and you can stick with them until you reach the age limit of 18. Start out small when you make the first few purchases of Avon if you're not very familiar with it, meaning purchase items with small prices like Deodorant, Nail Polish, or Eye Liner. Like I mentioned before in the "Selling Avon" Section, you can also purchase your Avon through the Avon App by downloading it from the App Store or the Play Store. And again, if you decide to purchase Avon through the Avon app, LOG IN WITH A PAYPAL ACCOUNT THROUGH QUIKPAY. Avon also has an "Insider Blog" that you can check out, here's the link:  www.avon.com/blog When you go on the homepage of the Avon website, you'll see a section near the top called "Brochure" where you can check out the latest eBrochures to pick and chose which merchandise you would like to order. It's very convenient for E-customers, very very convinent. When you're also starting out purchasing on the Avon website, go under sales for the exclusive special offers they have. And they also give you the option to submit your email address near the bottom left of their Avon page under "Sales" to get exclusive offers and the latest trends of Avon. Here's the link to the Avon website to get a glimpse of the website: www.avon.com Those are all the tips I have for purchasing Avon, I'll add more if I find some later.

Now that you guys have all the tips and my history of being involved in Avon, you guys can purchase it or sell it if you want, the option is all up to you! Again, you can start purchasing from me from the link I'll post below or click on the right-hand side of the Blogette. Check it out and the rest of my Blogs! Have a happy Thursday and I'll see you later!

Kaplan, Tupac, and Steak n Shake

Today was another busy Tuesday. I spent half of the day getting my application approved for Kaplan, went to see that new Tupac movie, and Steak n Shake afterward. Yep, Tupac. Who doesn't love Tupac? He was a famous Rapper who was overshadowed by his music lyrics and "bad boy" personality, but deep down inside he was a pretty cool person, I'll explain more in the Movie Review later. So in today's Blogette, we're going to discuss how my Tuesday was with Kaplan, Tupac, and of course Steak n Shake. Check it out!

Ugggh, pretty much after breakfast I had to start my Phone calls with this School. What? No, actually we started making Phone calls last week and that was a pain in the fanny than today. Since my Case Worker was busy with other Students, I found this the perfect time to go through an interlude of about a half hour or so...actually that turned into like 60 minutes or more. 60 minutes later, we finally get the Phone call back from my Case Worker and she instructs us on what to do next. Then we made to make more Phone calls and fill out more forms on the FSA website, as more complications were arising and we were pressed for time because not only did we have to hurry out the House in time to see Tupac, in addition, we had to hurry to pick up my Mom's Car from the Shop. After 2-3 hours of frustration, cups of Tang, countless random Movies on TV, and burning Candles, we were finally done. We also went to pick up my Mom's Car and my Aunt because she wanted to see the movie too, now let's move on to the next part.

When was the last time a Movie Theater was ever at a decent price? A. The 90's a.k.a the last DECENT generation? B. The 80's a.k.a the HISTORY OF THE MAKING GENERATION? Or C. The 70's a.k.a the YOU CAN DO/BE WHATEVER GENERATION? The answer is....yeah I really don't know or care at this point because there's a possibility that the answer could be a huge paradox. My Mom and my Aunt couldn't wait for Steak n Shake like me, I'm trying to watch my figure and they wanted some Popcorn and Pop. That's why my Mom spent $15..yes a 1 and a 5...almost $20...on two items. Hehe, my Aunt snuck in her Smoothie Drink though. So after that, we headed to the aisle where the Tupac Movie was playing.

All I can say is that if you want to know about the "real" Tupac, you gotta watch this movie. It was unbelievable and extremely amazing. And the actor who played him, he did it so well that it felt like you actually went back in time to view his upbringing and his failing action. Heck, THE DUDE LOOKED JUST LIKE HIM! I'll state more facts later, but that was just my quick though so we can move on and so I can have time to write this tonight since I'm a lazy person.

After we left, we finally came to Steak n Shake. Since my Mom and my Aunt ate plenty of Popcorn and Sprite, they only limited themselves to Milkshakes while I had a la the new Kit Kat Milkshake and the Bacon n Cheese Double Steakburger. Let me give you a brief about Kit Kat though. I FREAKING LOVE KIT KAT. Kit Kat is part of my soul, my life, my fortune. ♬MY LOOOVE...DO YOU EVER DREAM OF...CANDY COATED RAIN LOOOVE...YOU'RE THE SAME, MY CANDY RAAAAAIIIN.♬ I couldn't remember a moment when my Mom never came from the store at least once a week to deliver me a Kit Kat. If I could, I dirty dance with it and have Kids with it. I could see it now...Kitty and Katty. Or Kit Jr. and Katherine. I sound like a Cuckoo Bird don't I? Anywho, after Steak n Shake, we dropped my Aunt off and came back Home. Now I'm writing this post and still sipping on my Kit Kat. <3 Love you, Babe.~<33 Anyways, check out the next Movie Review post after this under "Movie Review" on the right-hand side of the page. Have a good day, see ya!

Take Your Daughter to Work Day Tuesday

Has anyone ever heard of that day called "Take Your Kid(s) to Work Day? I sure have, but unfortunately, it was back in April and I blew it. I was busy focusing on my grades and Graduation anyway. In fact, I had so much fun today, that I might start doing this at least once a month. PFFFF...LOL, it's too bad I couldn't Facebook live what happened today, otherwise, this post would've been more enjoyable and something I can laugh at when I'm in an "emo" mood. And now I see why my Mom is like "Good thing you were born in the 90s." So in this Blogette today, we're going to discuss how my day at work with Mama was that included Ice packs and pre-pubescent little half-pints with misadventures into fantastic antics.

All I can say is that in this paragraph, Bebe's Kids ain't got nothing on this Kid. After the Pledge or in other words 5-10 minutes later, while my Mom was filling up the Ice Maker plus on the Phone calling up one of the other Nurses and while I'm on my Phone and Tabby, we notice two...no wait I think either 3-4 Cops come inside the Nurse's Room (My Mom's Work Room) with the Security Guard and another Lady.....because of the 3rd Grader that they were with. WHY were the Cops called on him? According to Ms. Security Guard Lady, he was running in the hallways kicking people. Outside, my face is like "WTF?", but inside my sides were hurting so badly....I'm like "Kid why? Did they forget to give you a Cardon of Milk with your Corn Flakes or something?" LMFAO. Don't worry, my Mom calmed one of the Cops down by giving him one of those "Hope" speeches. Meanwhile, the 3rd Grader had his mouth balled up and for some weird reason gave one of the Cops a Uno Card? After everything, all of them left since it was lunchtime.

During Lunchtime, while I was innocently sipping my Capri-Sun and eating my Sandwich, I tried too hard to hold my mouth while hearing the Kids give excuses on why they came inside. We all (including me) had to wait outside so she (My Mom) could give one of the Kids her Diabetic medication. My Mom only stepped out the room for 5 minutes, but still, those Kids were coming. Two Boys came in there because one of them needed a Bandage. Instead of waiting patiently like an innocent Child, he decided that he could have the power to overrule the Nurse's Room by getting the Kid a Bandage in one of the draws...he couldn't find it and still had to wait for my Mom. :P Then....LOL Uh-oh! Two MORE Boys came inside the Room and asked where Mama was. I said that she had to step out for a few and they told me they needed some Ice packs because....because...well because one of them got hurt in their "Banana Cage." LMAO! I told them they could wait until she comes back, then they were like "Oh since she isn't here, we might as well go to lunch." And that's when....well...they left for lunch?

Oops, I forgot to explain what happened with this 4th grader. So Kid comes in the Nurse's Room complaining about how his stomach was hurting, 5-10 minutes later he's standing on top of an Exercise Ball watching my Mom help with the other Kids. Whoa, Kid, I thought you were sick? I thought you needed to lie down until your Brother comes? My Mom also gave me a duty there, I was the "Sticker Girl." I was in charge of giving the Kids Stickers after they were done seeing her.

After getting a bit bored, my Mom told me that maybe I should walk around to get a glimpse of the area and what not. First, I walked around the block. After hearing some of the Kids sing throwback songs from MJ, I decided to continue with my stroll. The first stop I went to was 7 Eleven, I haven't been there since like 7 years ago maybe. But I knew I wanted a Slurpee...Cola..@_@. Too bad I was already full, and too bad they had to make the Donuts look like the ones from The Simpsons! Just hope Homer doesn't stop through. The next and final stop was Walgreens, yeah I knew what they had but....whoa. Wait a second, this one is bigger than the one in the loop! Why? Well, 3 Escalators that include the Phamacy downstairs, the main floor, and a Boutique upstairs...duh. Boutique? I had to check it out like noticing that Cola Bottle with one of my (Wow, former) English Teacher's name on it. And why someone would be dumb enough to pay $2.00 for a pack of miniature Gummy Bears. What I thought was a Boutique was basically their Cosmetics department with Escalators. Yeah, I did get a chance to sample some of the products like the Lipstick and Mascara, but they were similar to the ones I already have. Afterward, I left as it was about to rain...thank god my hair didn't get wet. A couple of hours passed and it was soon time for us to go. By the way, this was the last day of School for the Elementary Kids which made this day even better.

So there you have it, that's how my Work Day with my Mom was. I haven't gotten to go to work with her since I was like 5...no wait since I was 11 I believe. It was fun while it lasted, and it gives others a chance to have a relief that they don't have any Kids. See you guys later, and have a goodnight. Here's a short video I made while Mama was on the Phone with one of the half-wit's Parents.


The End of The Year Carnival/Gone to Grandma's (AGAIN)

Every year, our School has a...well…”End of The Year Carnival” to wrap up the School year and as an excuse to plan a “fun” event for us. Yeah..heh….”fun”...YEAH, LOADS OF FUN. MMMMMHMMMM. Not a lot of the High Schoolers go each year, I wonder why? Maybe because it's mostly for Kids? I'll end that summary part here, let's move on to the next summary. Guess what? We're going to Grandma's again. Woo-hoo! And I believe we are going to have Chinese food! So in today’s Blogette, we're not only going to discuss the Carnival but my trip to my Grandma's. Check it out!

The End of The Year Carnival:
Alright, I'll just cut to the chase. I decided that this day would be the perfect time to wear my black/white striped Dress, because….why the heck not? Anyways, as soon as me and my Mom arrived there, she immediately pulled out her paperwork to finish there. Who could blame her? The event was mostly for the K - 8 Kids anyway so who cares? And I didn't really want to go, I was mainly there because a couple of my friends said they were coming. However, in addition to waiting for them like people used to do at McDonald's before that whole “All Day Breakfast” hit the fan, I decided to play a few games. What was the prize? Oh boy, 2 Lollipops from Dollar Tree! After getting a scoop of Ice Cream, I decided to call two of my Friends to see if they ditched me..AGAIN. Surprisingly, one of them answered the Phone. I'll just give you her nickname: Bee. Bee told me that her and her family are on their way to Six Flags, have fun Bee! I gave her my regards and hung up. Then….Oh this one is going to be another memory to chuckle at…..I called my other Friend. Nicknamed: Shae. Sent her a couple of texts, called her twice, SAW HER ONLINE ON MESSENGER AKA FACEBOOK, had Best Friend to call her….speaking of which, let me tell you about what happened with me and Best Friend. I get to the Bouncy House where he was at and he looked sweaty. Luckily Mr. M was there to give him a break, as well as one of the Lollipops I had to give… Cherry flavored buddy? The second time I walked to him was...no way. He was standing aside without a shade!? Look man, he's my Best Friend, can you at least give him a Parasol? No, forget you then...dang! I decided that this was another perfect time to ask him to call Shae for me. Very surprising, he did. NO ANSWER. Yo Shae, Y U Soo lazi gurrrl? Blah, well at we tried….HEY NOW! HEY NOW! A couple of my underclassmen friends came….I knew they would since they are just too sweet and pretty to not come. Said hello, gave hugs, my number, compliments ( I MISS YOU GUYS! ), and then me and Mama (You can call her Mama Clay, Ma Clay, or Mother Clay) bounced outta there. To Jewels, donate at Salvation Army, then Home to go to G-ma’s.

Gone’ to Grandma's (AGAIN):
I couldn't… well we couldn't even spend a good 20 minutes at the House since we had to rush out the House to go to my Grandma's and so my Aunt could go to the DMV…..again. Don't blame her, blame the system. In fact, she's the reason why we're able to go to her (My Grandma) House today...so we don't gotta spend 90 minutes in my Mom’s Car due to the lack of sleep she gets. Whereas if my Aunt ( Aunt J) drives, it'll only take 45 minutes. That's why lunch only consisted of half a Granola Bar and some Milk, why the Blogette couldn't be finished sooner, and why I'm basically typing this on my Tabby. Quick note about the DMV, then we can continue with the main topic: It was like Thanksgiving Thursday in the parking lot for the Seagulls! Off and on again it was raining, why? Maybe Mother Nature got jilted by her bf or her “friend” came. After a quick trip to Dollar Tree, we finally arrived at Grandmama’s. Her fence and stair railing is finally fixed! She gave me a Jacket as a graduation gift, asked me 5 times how I did my hair and makeup, and is passed out while I'm typing. I tried too hard to show her what my Tablet was…..she was more focus on the makeup than the internet. “Hey, who did this Baby’s makeup?” “What college are you going to?” “Who did your hair?” “Did you find yourself a boyfriend yet?” I got the answers: 1. Me. 2. Kaplan University. 3. Me again. And 4. Sadly, no.  Nevermind, she woke up after pointing and laughing at this chubby Girl on Andy Griffin… Yes, she only watches shows from the 50s to 70s.

That being said and since there's nothing much to discuss, that was my day. I hope you all have a goodnight.  Where's the pictures of the Carnival? Well, here's the thing. I didn't take any! Why? Because I didn't want to. Night. 

The Graduation Part 1: The Practice/Luncheon

Before we began, let me just note that I changed the name from "Blogzette" to "Blogette." Why? Because I wanted to and "Blogette" sounds cooler...hehe.

Alright, from the beginning! Usually, the day before you graduate 8th grade or High School, there's always a practice to keep the flow going so the ceremony will be "perfect." Practice makes perfect, which is why it took us about 60 minutes to get everything...."perfect." But before we tend to "practice makes perfect", we were rewarded with a Senior Luncheon at....GIORDANO'S! WOOT WOOT! Like the Shedd Aquarium, I've heard of that place before like a million times but never been there. I wish they could've let us go to a luncheon in 8th grade, as well as taken the 8th graders to a luncheon since they had to practice during the morning as well. So today, we're going to discuss how my Graduation practice and Senior luncheon went. Check it out!

Woke up as usual, Breakfast Cereal, threw on basically the same outfit I had on when I went to the Aquarium yesterday except for the different shoes, in fact I wore my Graduation Shoes today to break them in for tomorrow. 20 minutes later, me and my Mom finally got to the School....late. Blame the traffic, not her Car. No one was there, not even the Teachers. There was only one dude there. Oh that's right, we were supposed to walk over with them but since we were only like 10-20 minutes late...yeah you get my point. Luckily, the Navigator system on Google Maps didn't malfunction, otherwise, we would've gotten our Goose cooked while hangry. What is hangry? Hangry is a combination of hungry and angry at the same time. HANGRY. 8 minutes later, we finally made it. Oh man, I didn't know that many Teachers and Students would be there....hence that we had our own private section in the back instead of the front. So many people, that we had to wait for the next two Pizzas to dish out....well I took the last slice so. Yippee! I was so glad I did....EWW, WHAT! NO! IT WAS COLD! YUCK! At least the taste buds came back for the Salad and Garlic Bread. Oh, and the Lemonade, Water, and Pepsi were also our Refreshers.

After 20 MORE minutes, two of the Pizzas finally came. The stuffed and the thin crust. Lord have mercy, let's make room for my stomach...SIKE! I have a ceremony tomorrow, which is why I only ate HALF of the cold slice, a half a cup of Salad, 1 small piece of Garlic Bread, and two Thin Crust Sausage Squares. Mama was so glad to come, she personally created herself a doggie bag despite the Staff's objectives. After a walk over about the slideshow with our pictures for tomorrow, talk about boy bands like Run-DMC, NKOTB, Backstreet Boys, N'Sync (I hope one day they make a comeback), and vice versa, we FINALLY came back to practice for the ceremony.  Remember I said it took us 60 minutes? Yeah, it might've been longer than that...I think 90 minutes? Well when you mix crazy antics, missing Students, and slapstick jokes, you basically get our Graduation Practice! I proved to one of my Teachers that I DID KNOW HOW TO PRACTICE FROM PLAYING PIANO CEREMONIES FOR MUCH OF MY CHILDHOOD AND WHAT NOT....Speaking of which, I gotta start back practicing on it again. We were also given our Caps and Gowns, plus our Senior Class Pictures with our Caps and Gowns on.

After it was over....OMG ONE OF MY FRIEND'S MOM GAVE ME SOME CHICKEN WINGS...THANK YOU! GOD BLESS YOUR SOUL! Did it really have to rain? ....I guess it did since that's what happened to me when we got into the Car. Yeah, guys, I broke down, I couldn't hold my tears back I was so sad. I did it before on Monday, but I guess I did it again today so I wouldn't jinx and embarrass myself during the ceremony, huh? I love that School so much, that even though I'm going to be busy with College, I'm going to try to save out some money to visit my Teachers and my underclassmen Friends to keep in touch with them...even though I have a majority of them on Facebook and text. Still, who wouldn't miss the hugs, compliments, and smiles that you would get from people that treated you so decent that you could've sworn that they were like you're long lost family members? *Sigh* Well, tomorrow is the big day. I hope everything goes well and that everyone goes to the ceremony. Talk to you guys tomorrow, and I hope you guys enjoy this post. Wish me luck, cross those fingers!  Below, you will see 2 more Selfies I took today.

The Shedd Aquarium Trip

Hey guys, this post is going to be short because like the Six Flags Trip, this one is a "Travel Logzette", therefore there's going to be a personal page about it on the right-hand side of the page under "Travel Logzette." Not only did I take pictures while I was there, but I also purchased a Camcorder a couple of weeks ago so I could film a video while I was there. Yep, to impress you guys and to improve the Blog, I'm going to try my best to take a bunch of trips to Chicago during the Summer! Anyways, enjoy the video below and enjoy the Travel Logzette! There's more to come!

http://www.theworldaccordingtojunne.com/p/travel-logzette-2-shedd-aquarium-trip.html



(Sorry for the delay, this is also what's taking me awhile to publish the post because I'm having trouble uploading the Video on Youtube. It'll be on here soon enough, check back tomorrow or later tonight.)

(3 hours later, HERE IT IS!)

Mission Impossible: The Escape Room/Final Senior Field Trip Edition

Today is the day of the final Field Trip for us for the year. Well, the final Senior Field Trip for us for the year since we go on more Field Trips than any of the other underclassmen. And the best part about it was that we didn't have to come to the School until at 2:00 pm because the Trip was so close, that we could take transportation and walk there. What a beautiful day. So in this post today, we're going to go over the trip to the Escape Room. Let's go!

Let me break to the Afternoon since all I did this morning was watch the Fresh Prince, talk to Ginger Snaps, and played that Blossom Game online. So here we are, my Mom dropped me off at the School and even decided to stay there until we got back. I don't think she was bored since she brought plenty of paperwork to do and her Netbook thingy. How many Kids went on the Trip? Let me put it this way: If you ordered half a dozen of Donuts from Dunkin Donuts, you'll get the number of Kids that went on the Trip, including me. If you want to include how many Teachers went, then you might as well add 2 Cups of Coffee. Oh and one of my friend's Mom went, therefore 3 cups of Coffee and half a dozen of Donuts. Apparently, I wasn't consulted that Parents could go since I could've brought my Mom since she hasn't gone on a Field Trip with me since I was 11. OH, and I also wasn't consulted that instead of using the Ventra Cards that they FORGOT TO RETURN TO US TODAY, we had to use our own fare. Welp, there goes that Sensodyne money. We're going to take the Pink line, no wait a minute...we're going to take the GREEN line. I know I'm going to sound racist, but how the heck do you confuse Colored lines? Especially if it's Chicago! We also had to walk a couple of blocks, then we finally made it.

A lot of you probably never been or even heard of the Escape Room, so let me break it down to you. Basically, the Escape Room is where you are placed in a Room that leads to other Rooms from that Room and you find clues and objects to help you escape that Room to proceed to the next Room to escape the Room you started at. You also have 60 minutes to Escape or else. By the way, you can't use your Phone, you can't even take pictures or touch certain objects in that Room. There are four Rooms that they have that you can choose: Mission: Mars, Prison Break, The Heist, and Gold Rush. The Kids chose The Heist and the Adults chose Mission: Mars. Alright, it looks like this isn't going to be another Telltale Game, it's going to be Mission Impossible. *Cue the Mission Impossible theme*

60:00 - We were first looking around the Room for hints and clues. Of course, we knew we couldn't touch certain things and the clues they gave us was a bit confusing.

55:00 - OOH! A CLUE! One of the Kids found a clue! We had to find the numbers to unlock the lock on the door. The hint gave us a clue to look at the paintings, the years on the paintings, and behind one of the paintings was a Mirror.

48:00 - Someone opened this small square hole that leads to a small opening of the next Room we had to go to. Using the Mirror to find the combination, they used it to reflect the Mirror on the wall with the numbers on it. I used the combination and INTO THE NEXT ROOM WE GO! YES!

45:00 - Man oh man, it was so frustrating escaping out of this Room. The first clue we found were some puzzle pieces that automatically make me think "Okay, who played Banjo-Kazooie last night?" We couldn't find most of the pieces because...well YOU TELL ME!

40:00 - I was getting so scared, I thought between either needing to burst out the Room or getting some Adrenaline to boost my confidence. We found more clues that included a Key inside a bottle, a Map, a Napkin, Flashlight, and a closed Chest.

35:00 - We found another clue that leads to finding a Tablet inside the Drawer that was inside the Room and another clue that lead to the combination of opening the closed Chest to finding another Tablet.

30:00 - Guess what? We found another combination that leads to...a secret pathway to a hidden Room that contained on what appeared to be a Jailcell, Drawers, and some Goblets?

00:25 - Two of the Classmates found one more clue that leads the combination to open the door of the first Room.

00:21 - WE LEFT OUT THE ROOM! WOO-HOO! WE ESCAPED THE ESCAPE ROOM! YES! SOMEONE CALL DORA BECAUSE WE DID IT!

The Teachers and my Friend's Mother came out of the Room looking a bit exhausted. Awwww...what's wrong guys? Are we smarter than you or was it too hard? Just kidding. Instead of going to Portillo's AS PLANNED, we had to go to a Pizzeria called Pizzeria Due that looked pretty fancy...and sexy...well the Man Waiters were so that's why----Something leads to one of my Teachers to sit outside instead of inside with us. He was taunting us while looking through the window, looking bored, blah blah blah. To keep boredom from happening with us, one of my Friends gave us the good idea to play a Game on her Phone, which-I-forgot-the-name-of but know that the rules are that you have to hold the Phone on your forehead while the other Players have to give you hints and clues to guess the name that's on your forehead. How did it go? Let me give you a quick run-down: OLD TV SHOW! FRESH PRINCE! LOOKS LIKE A MEXICAN SQUIRREL! CHINCHILLA! MEOW! CAT! TV SHOW WITH A HALLOWEEN FAMILY! NO, NOT THE ADAMS FAMILY, THE MUNSTERS! LINCOLN PARK ZOO! OSTRICH! A BUG! FLY!

After we finished our Pizza, one of the Teachers who had to pay the Restaurant Bill...again...noticed an order of Chicken Wings and a Ceasar Salad on his bill. Gee Whiz, where on Earth did that come from? I'll tell you, from Mr. M who's sitting outside and mocking us! So we had to take Transportation back, Mama took me Home, I'm tired af, and Ginger Snaps is helping me write this post. Plus for some reason, I am having a thirsty quencher for some good o'l Apple Juice and Tru Moo. Maybe I'll get some tomorrow. So that's how the Trip was and that's how it feels to be trapped in a Room for 60 minutes without the use of a Phone. I hope you enjoy this post, stay safe and goodnight!

Yesterday at Grandma's/ Telltale's "Six Flags Great America:" High School Edition

I noticed that every since I've become an Adult, I've become a very busy Bee like my Mom, only I'm not the one with the Job. It seems like every week, I'm either going somewhere or doing working on different projects to help with my Blog or just for fun. But that doesn't mean that I don't have time to visit Grandmama, right? And being busy also qualifies me for an opportunity to go on the yearly Six Flags Field Trip this year! Woo-hoo! So today in this post, I'm going to discuss the first half about what happened at Grandmama's yesterday and the second half of the Six Flags Trip today. In fact, it's going to be so long, that I'm going to create a page for more info on the Six Flags Trip, check it out after this post!

Yesterday at Grandma's: 
Everything was going normally, as usual, we went to pick up my Aunt since we usually ride together with her to go to my Grandma's. She showed us her Garden, let me chew on one of her delicious Strawberries she grew, and the "competition" next door to her. PFFFF, it looked like a poor excuse for someone using a Litterbox as an Orange Grove. I'm just stating my opinion though, but golly. Before we went to my Grandma's, my Aunt had to take care of some Business at the DMV. Would you believe me if I told you that it only took her 15 minutes? Why? Because she did it a few minutes before closing time! Maybe I should do that when I get ....smart move. Afterward, we finally got to my Grandma's, and as always my other Aunt brought us some food for the little family function that we always have. What was on the menu? Let me turn this into a roll call: Ribs, Hotdogs, BBQ Sauce, Potato Salad, Cole Slaw, Fruit Salad, and Hawaiian Rolls (I recommend that you microwave them for 10 seconds, they taste a bit better but still taste just as good at room temperature). 

There were also two trucks that came to fix the Steps of my Grandma's House and to fix the roof I believe? Then a crazy antic happened about some Baby Powder and a $1.07. LOL! Also, my Aunt (The one who always brings the grub when we come over, I'll call her "Aunt T") gave me a Dress, a Graduation Gift, and a Birthday Gift Card from my Birthday a couple of weeks ago. Nothing much was happening after that unless you want me to include on what we were debating on what to watch on TV and discussing our plans for tomorrow (Tuesday). Same o'l same o'l, let's move on to the Six Flags Field Trip, shall we? 


Telltale's "Six Flags Great America:"

Oh man, only 6 hours of sleep? I don't have to tell you because of where I was yesterday since we always get back SO DARN LATE....I MEAN GOSH? At least the Milk wasn't spoiled in my Cocoa Puffs again, otherwise, we would've had a severe problem. But ignoring that, for the first time in my entire life, I'm riding the CTA by myself since my Mom had to go to work today (I told you she's a busy Woman right?) and because...who else is going to take me that's not working on a Tuesday? I and Mama took the first Bus together, then she went to her stop for work and I had to take a second Bus. It was fun actually, some Dude and a Lady got into a conversation about their blindness while the Lady's Daughter was watching while sipping on her Chocolate Milk...THAT I MISS HAVING. MAMA, PLEASE BUY ME MORE TRUMOO. PLEEEEASE? I'VE BEEN A GOOD GIRL, I PROMISE. Ooops...*cough, cough*....That's my allergies acting up again. 

After that, I finally got to the stop at my School.....only 1 person from my Senior Class that's one of my friends? SERIOUSLY? Before you ask why it's only one person, let me discuss the rules and regulations about the Six Flags Trip. In order to qualify for the Trip, you have to get a 70% or higher in all of your classes, even if those classes aren't the "main core" classes such as PE, Art, and etc. The first time they offered us a chance to go on the Trip, also a quarter of each Class came. Now, it's like "Okay, who got kidnapped for ransom?" Finally, my other friend from my Senior Class came. Although some Kids qualified, some didn't go because they had other obligations to tend to such as work or deal with a sick relative. Meanwhile on the Magic School Bus, one of my friends had a discussion with me about how I AM mandatory to go on the Roller Coasters with her and my other friend since I've never been on one. Good thing I'm still wearing the cross Mama gave me....HAVE MERCY. We finally arrived there and guess what? It only took us about 10-15 to get in? Quick huh? I'm going to post the link to the page I created with my reactions to the rides and my reviews on them and post it in the post because this post is getting too long. One more thing to add: I MET BUGS BUNNY! He hugged me, grabbed my hands, blew an air kiss at me, and then waved goodbye to me.~What a charming Rabbit. <3 



*5 HOURS LATER FROM CLOSE CALLS AND IGNORING MURPHY'S LAW + LUNCH*

Phew, what a day. Had some close calls, trapped in long lines, lack of Chili on the Hotdog, and a bunch of cute Boys who I wish could've came back with us. My Phone was nearly dead too...9%? SOMEONE CALL A DOCTOR! I really enjoyed going back since I couldn't go last year because I had a cold. I was going to go back Home on the Bus, but my Mom decided to pick me up....10 minutes late since the Principal had to stay outside with me...Thanks, Ms. B! So now I'm back Home, tired, back hurts, and I'm going to bed after this sentence. Goodnight and I hope you enjoyed the post and page.

#Prom2017 (PRINCESS TIANA COMING YA WAY!)

What's one of the most fun events that Girls like during their Junior and Senior year of High School? PROM! YES! Prom is THAT event, that's why you guys might see more Girls at Prom than Boys because Prom is mostly for Girls, well in my opinion. I went to my Junior Prom and it was very nice, but the one I went to today was special...so special that I decided to "one-up" the one that I went to last year. So special, so special. I really had fun today and you're going to know why in 5...4...3..2...LET'S GO, guys!

It was even better today because there weren't any classes (Well at least not for the Seniors since...well you should know from the previous posts that I made), giving me extra time to prepare for my special day. I accidentally made the boiled Egg taste like nothing again; don't blame me, blame the ones who were delivering them to Jewels! They obvious didn't have time to get that Breakfast Burrito that they so very needed, did they? Or if it was the afternoon, they were probably one of those out-to-lunch fools. Forget breakfast, let's move on. Like last year, I took a nap so I wouldn't get tired while preparing. Why? Well, here's the scenario: If I had gotten tired, I would've passed out while doing my makeup and hair. If I would've passed out while doing my makeup and hair, I would've messed myself up. If I would've messed myself up, I would've missed my Prom. If I would've missed my Prom, I would've never lived it down. If I would've never lived it down, I would never get a Boyfriend, I would've run around my Condo screaming and banging on the doors, they would've called the Cops, I would eventually get a warning, then check myself into a Mental Hospital and then....I think you get the point.

Let me give you the phases on why it took me 4 hours to get ready: First Lunch, then Bath, next Dress, afterward Hair, and finally Makeup and Jewelry. See, that wasn't long at all, was it? Guess who I dressed up as....PRINCESS TIANA! Oh and guess who my ride was? GEORGE THE LIMO DRIVER! THANKS FOR THE COLA AND RIDE, GEORGE! I'll recommend you in the future for future references just in case one of my friends gets married or wants to pretend like they live on the Gold Coast or something. Oh, and I appreciate you letting us take a Selfie together!

Let me give this small note before we continue...a Random Lady asked me if she could take my picture! Omg! I felt like a Celebrity or something! YES! YES! TAKE ALL THE PICTURES YOU WANT, RANDOM CELL PHONE LADY! After that, I went to the area of the Swiss where the Prom was held and guess what? I was the first one there! Last year when I got there, almost everyone was there except a few people. This time, I was the first one! I was the chosen one....so I though. Boring, boring, boring! Waiting for my Friends to come while taking Photos (Which I didn't mind) and having a short dance with one of the Teachers. A few boring moments later, we have one of my Friends and her Date arrive in matching outfits! BLUE IS THE WAY TO GO! Too bad I can't show you guys the picture unless she gives me permission or whatnot. After the rest of my friends came, we finally had Dinner and Dessert. We also had a Punch Bar and...OMG. REMEMBER THE FRIEND I TOLD YOU WITH THE JOB? SHE NOT ONLY BROUGHT ONE BUT TWO OF HER COUSINS THERE. HELLO! NICE TO MEET YOU! I'm Princess Tiana. Where's Naveen? Uhhh...he's here and there....(Every night..hehe)...nice weather we're having, huh?

After Dinner, we danced a bit...oh yeah! The Principal came and brought her Daughter...she recognized me as Princess Tiana! She's so cute and sweet! She tried to tell us how to dance, told us when it was time for us to get out the bathroom, and gave us high fives! Princess Tiana loves you, honey! We also had this Cake that had a Gentle Lamp on it since it was an "Arabian Lights" theme and all. Then we continued to dance some more, group dance, BEYONCE, Reggae dance mix, and then it was time to go. You know what I noticed? There were at least 20 Kids at the Prom last year, only 10 were there this year. In fact, it was such a small amount that I think that's why they made the dance floor smaller and why there were fewer songs to play. Heck, the Teachers didn't even start dancing until near the end; although I'll admit, we danced a little while waiting for the other Kids to arrive. Despite everything, I still had fun and it was better than last year. The only difference was the number of Students and Teachers. I'll post some of the Selfies I took in the Post, as well as some of the Prom pictures I took! So that was my Senior Prom, I hope you guys have a good night sleep! Goodnight!
