FOUND!!!!!

One of the many reasons I barely graduated high school:

Sick ass notes I wrote to my friends

It was folded up very intricately so that every unfold revealed more caution about how offensive the context of this note was. 

To my friend's surprise, this note contained absolutely no relevant information whatsoever. Just some poetry that makes me realize how much of an asshole I was. But a funny asshole.

Seriously, I had enough time to get into major detail about how much caution to take upon opening the note that I probably wasted an entire class. No wonder I barely made it to graduation.

Lisa Frank Status!

I don't know why but this morning I woke up thinking that Summer was going to be over, like, next week. But thanks to Google magic I now know that there are still 29 days left of Summer. Which to every girl out there, that means there's only 29 days left to wear all those ridiculously bright neon clothes/ nail polish/ eyeshadows/ frilly shirts/ cut off shorts & other crazy cool shit you spent all Summer stocking up on because in less than a month you get to put it all away for Fall. This also means I'm going to have to start DOING my hair for work and not have that "beachy wave" look aka "I went to bed with my hair wet and just threw some mousse in it this morning cause I slept in" look.

Damnit.

Anyways, beware Phoenix... starting tomorrow I'm going full force on the end of Summer fun looks!

No, I'm not a construction worker wearing this neon orange & yellow.

No, I did not rob a homeless person of their cut off shorts and shirts. 

No, I am no longer a part of the Lisa Frank Club with my bright pink & blue nail polishes. 

I promise you I own at least one brush and I know how to use it.

No, I'm not wearing these neon colors so drivers can see me because I plan on running at night. 

I promise I do not crimp my hair. It's called a DEEP WAVER!

Oh yeah, that "perfume" I've been wearing the last few months is called: Sport Performance by Banana Boat. It's my sexy Summer scent.

No, I do not think I am a gladiator in these sandals.

And last but not least, I promise I'm not always listening to cheesy pop/ rock songs and sippin' on cocktails by the pool acting like I'm in the next LMFAO music video. 

So consider yourselves warned! I hope the rest of you rock the shiznit out of your Summer wardrobe and beauty looks for the next 29 days.

Random Rememberings of my weekend

Yes, I just made that word up: rememberings instead of memories

1.) I asked a man who was "not gay" if he had a boyfriend which then lead to him asking me all of my reasons as to why I thought he was gay and he still denied even though I drunkenly insisted he was. Talk about AWKWARD!
2.) I ate a popsicle called "Mexican Product". Spicy.As.Funk.
3.) I realized I belong nowhere even close to Mill Avenue unless "I don't give a shit if I make out with an 18 or even 17 year old" as my PIC stated.

The Picture I Made For My Cousin Regarding How Our Tennis Match Would Go

And that's exactly what happened. 

Happy 100th Birthday Arizona

I am in love with my home state Arizona.
Our summers may be hot & dry, but that just means there's more opportunities for fun things to do outside and the rest of our year is unbelievable weather. We can take a 2 hour drive up North to Sedona or Flagstaff to cool off with a gorgeous scenery or make it an extra couple of hours to see the Grand Canyon. We may not have an ocean front view, but we are 4 hours from a Mexican beach & 5 hours from a California beach. If you're feelin' lucky, Sin City is only a short 4 hour drive away for a weekend adventure.

I've always said I want to travel the world and move to different places, but Arizona will always be my Home. Just the scenery of it all is what makes me appreciate it more... like the sunset, it never ceases to amaze me especially with all of the mountain surroundings.

The only bad thing I can honestly say about Arizona, is the people that move here from out of state and constantly complain about it. So after I kindly tell them to go back where they came from if they hate it that much, I can go back to admiring my amAZing home.

Happy New Year!!

A wish for me & a wish for you

Birds of a feather flock together

Whoops, should've posted this earlier since it's almost the new weekend!

Last weekend was fabulous! Company Holiday party at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge then Cardinal domination on Sunday! Friday was a blur and Sunday was freezing cold! My niece swore it was snowing, I was too occupied with my hair blowing in a million and one directions.

So here are some pics from this beautiful weekend. Enjoy :)

On our way to tailgate! My #1 fans!!

Just another beautiful day in the AZ from the hotel balcony

Holla for a Dolla!

I love the dollar store. So much junk in there you never knew you needed until you see it's only a buck! Yesterday I hit two different dollar stores and have amusing stories about each of them.

Dolla Holla Mission 1: Christmas decorations for office
Since we are being forced to have some Holiday office cheer this year, I was instructed to go get cheap decorations to spiff up my lobby because having a tree wasn't enough. So a coworker and I hit Dollar Tree and the main thing I was in search for were a couple of boxes of cheap lights to hang around my desk. I see the lights they have and on the box it said 5.1ft so I figured two boxes would be plenty. When we return to the office, I unravel the lights only to find out I've been bamboozled. I asked my coworker how tall I look and she says about 5'4 to which I reply "Well apparently I must be as tall as Lamar Odom to the Dollar Tree". Cot damn lights are only about 3 feet long and there's 2 feet of just cord and to top it off, there's no damn connector at the end to hook up another set. These kinds of details should be specified!! I guess that's why they're only a dollar.

Dolla Holla Mission 2: Help my niece combine a Secret Santa gift for under $5
My Secret Santa niece needed some help on what to get her friend for under $5, so I told her we'd go to the dollar store and make a little basket of gifts. We picked out nail polishes, nail polish remover, cotton balls, and nail files and put them in a cute Christmas bucket, boom. 5 bucks. During our hunt, we stumbled upon the Dog section with food, treats, leashes and then... stripper dog clothes for small dogs. Seriously. There were cheetah prints, sparkles, glitter and SHEER shirts. Does a dog really need a sheer shirt with zebra print and sequins on it so you can see through it and think to yourself "That is one sexy little bitch"??? Actually, does anyone really need a shirt like that? The answer is no. So needless to say, my sister and I couldn't resist but to buy 2 of these outfits for her Chihuahuas (which are like my children) to help them stay warm in their doghouse. I know what you're thinking, and the answer is YES! Of course we did a family photo shoot!!

Happy Holidays!! Love Cocoa, Chapo & Gina

I've been feeling like the 3rd Gucci Mane allllllllll day!

Yeah, This is how I feel after Halloween fun

Guess which one I am?!

If I ever happen to get another dog

I'm going to name him Calvin.  



Over.

Happy Halloween!

It only took me 2 work days to think this up then draw it and cut it out.
Thank God I don't have any real work to do.

Ladies, Who's With Me?

I always like to plan out my costumes a year in advance and I'm pretty sure next year I'm going to be this. It's kinda plain tho so I'll have to add some design and RED to it.  Also, I feel like I should have some fellow Mariachi girls with me, so anyone who wants to do it with me let me know   }:)
