REVIEW: SLIMQUICK Pure Extra Strength


Hello Lovelies!
Today I will be reviewing SLIMQUICK Pure Extra Strength Drink Mix !
SlimQuick Pure is a weight loss drink mix designed just for women's weight loss. SlimQuick Pure is designed to increase metabolism, reduce your appetite,  boost energy, reduce bloating, support hormones, and reduce stress, which is a big contributing factor to weight gain.

My Thoughts?
When I received this product I didn't know what to expect, but after trying it I really liked it. Plus, before I tried it my mom found the box and tried it while I was at work.

I've really noticed that since I started using this product that my appetite has really diminished, I get full easier and I don't get hungry as often.


I've been using this product for about two weeks now, and since I started using this product I've lost about 4 pounds. On top of the drink mix I've been walking, going to physical therapy, and watching what I eat.

Personally I love the sweet taste and I think it tastes even better when you put it in the freezer and let it get slushy!

Will I repurchase? 
I already have and I'm thinking about trying the gummies too! I got two free gummies in my sample box and I really liked them and I think with my busy schedule it might be easier for me to keep up with the gummies than it is with the drink mix.

What do you think about SlimQUick drink mixes? Will you be trying this product?
Do you have any questions about the product? Let me know below!

Links to Love

Hello Lovelies,
Welcome to my new series, I'm so happy to finally be starting something new! This week wasn't the greatest and yesterday was the first day in a week that wasn't awful. I mentioned earlier this week I was sick, and so that was a big contributor to this week not being the best.

But I'm finally feeling better, I'm getting my energy back, and I'm ready to start working on some new projects!
Happy New Year everyone, I hope your year is off to a great start!
XoXo,
Lori

September Weight Loss

Hello lovelies, I hope you had a great weekend, I know usually I would be posting this next Monday, but I decided to go ahead and post it today because I'm really happy, and I want to share everything with you!

Diet:
My diet has been going really good, I've been trying to use My Fitness Pal here lately and I think it's been helping. Usually I have a lot of cravings, but this month I haven't, and I haven't been eating a lot of sweets either. 

Exercise:
Honestly I haven't exercised at all this month, and I actually have a legitimate reason for not exercising. On August 22 I went to work with my mom and as we were walking down the hall I almost fell, and during that almost fall I hurt my ankle!

I tried to ignore it and I thought it would okay, but by last Friday I knew I had to go to the doctor and get it checked out. So I went to the doctor, she did X-Rays and said that my ankle was sprained and that I had soft tissue swelling, so for the next 8-12 weeks I have to stay off of it, and hopefully it gets better.

I'm hoping that it will heal well, but sadly I don't have the best history with my left foot, I've had so many problems with it in the past and because of that I know that my recovery time could take longer, and if it doesn't get better then I guess I'll have to go to physical therapy.

Weight Lost This Month:  4.6 Pounds
Total Weight Loss: 9 Pounds

When I weighed myself and saw that I'd almost lost 5 pounds I literally said out loud, "Oh my damn", which of course prompted my mom to say, "What did you just say!"  Lol. :) 

I'm still so surprised that I've actually lost weight, I honestly thought I'd gained weight, so losing weight makes me really happy!

Since this is a health related post I thought I would share with you that last week I also had a lot of blood work done and everything came back great, I was really worried about it, and so I'm relieved that everything turned out great!

So that's it for this month's weight loss update, I hope you liked it!

XoXo,
Lori

July Goals Update

Hey y'all! Can you believe tomorrow is August? I can't believe it, I wish we could freeze time for a week so I can get everything done that I need to do!

 Honestly, I'm actually starting to panic, I have so much to do, and I feel like I'm running out of time. One of the reasons I've been so stressed is because I decided a few weeks ago that I won't be using the CommonApp when it becomes available tomorrow, so that means I have to do all of my college applications separately, and I have to write essays for all the schools I apply to!

So, if over the next few months I don't post as often you know why!
But for now here's an update for my goals this month!

Read 2 Books
Lose Weight
Be a Better Blogger
Finish College Prep US History Part 2
Start and Finish English 2 Part 1
Start Geometry Part 1
Visit UE campus
 Send in UE college app
Write 10,000 words for Camp NaNoWriMo.
Order ACT study books.

5 out of 5!

Lose Weight
If you read Monday's Weight Loss Update, then you already know everything there is to know.

Start and Finish English 2 Part 1
Finishing my history course took way longer than I had planned, but I did finish it, now I'm just waiting for my teacher to close my course so I can get English 2 opened and I'm not sure how long that will take, usually 7-10 days but sometimes it can take longer.

Visit UE campus.
I had an appointment to tour the campus on Monday, but unfortunately I had to cancel it due to bad timing and health issues. But I did send in my application and hopefully soon I'll get to re-schedule!

Write 10,000 words for Camp NaNoWriMo
I made it to just over 7,000 words this month, I didn't write as much this month as I did last month, but considering everything that happened this month I'm happy with my results.

Order ACT study books.
Oops, I kinda forgot about this. I'll try to remember to order them tomorrow!


So that's all for this month! Did you accomplish your goals this month?

XoXo,
Lori

July Weight Loss

Hello lovelies, I hope you had a great weekend! I'm not feeling too well today, so I'm going just going to get right into this months update!

Diet:
My diet has been very good this month, since starting my new medicine for acid reflux I've been eating much better, and I'm actually enjoying the food I'm eating. Sure I still have problems a few times a week, but it's much better than it's been in a long time.

Overall my diet has been great, but last week while pmsing I discovered the new Reese cup flavored Oreo's, and they're great! To be honest, I'm glad they're only limited edition or else I could develop a real addiction to them!

Exercise:
I'm not gonna lie, I didn't do so great in this area this month. I've definitely got in more exercise than last month, but I didn't do as much as I was hoping. 

This upcoming month, however, things are changing! We're going to be moving and once we get moved in I'm going to ask my aunt if I can borrow her treadmill or elliptical, due to an injury she can't use it, so I'm hoping I can sweet talk her into letting me use it!

Weight Lost This Month:  0 Pounds
Total Weight Loss: 7 Pounds

So, no changes this month, but I'm hoping August will be better. This month overall has been really busy and stressful, there were a lot of up and down, but I'm a very optimistic person and I can only hope that things will change for the better, soon!

XoXo,
Lori

June Weight Loss

Hello lovelies, can you believe today is the last day of June? This year is going by too fast, it feels like yesterday we were celebrating the new year, and now we're halfway through the year!

Diet:
This month my diet has been really good, I haven't been eating many sweets and I've also cut out potato chips completely. For the first half of the month I wasn't getting nearly enough calories because I was having problems with my acid reflux. But last week I saw the doctor and we switched my medicine and so far it's working and I feel a lot better.

Exercise:
I mentioned this last week during my goals update, but I've been dealing with some health issues this month and I haven;t been able to go to the gym because of it. I'll be seeing a specialist on July 9 and I'm hoping after that I can get back on track.

Weight Lost This Month:  0 Pounds
Total Weight Loss: 7 Pounds

So, no  changes this month, but I have hope that things will change soon. That's all for today, this week I'll be back on my normal schedule so I'll be posting tomorrow and Wednesday!

XoXo,
Lori

May Weight Loss

Hello lovelies, I hope your day is off to a great start! I don't really have much to say today, so I'm just gonna get started with this months update.

Diet:
My diet has been up and down all month. Not really good, but not really bad, and that's really all I can say about it!

Exercise:
Well my plan for this month was to get back in the gym, but it didn't work out that way. The day I was planning on going to the gym to get signed up, I woke up with a swollen and sore leg. So I called my doctor and she said that I needed to stay off of it, and let the swelling go down, so that's what I've been doing.
Since I haven't been able to go to the gym I decided to get my weights out and I've been doing a lot of upper-body weight training and exercises. I can tell a little difference in my arms, but I know that in order to get the results I want I need to get back in the gym. I think I'm going to the doctor this week so I'll find out then if she thinks it's okay for me to start working out at the gym.

Weight Lost This Month:  1 Pound
Total Weight Loss: 7 Pounds

I"m so happy that I've lost weight, it might just be one pound, but it still means a lot to me. I know that probably sounds weird, but I'm just really happy.

So that's all for today, I know for sure I'll be posting tomorrow, but I'm not sure about Wednesday yet.

XoXo,
Lori

February Goals Update

     Earlier this month I shared with you some of the goals that I hoped to accomplish this month, and today I want to update you about them.

In case you forgot or didn't see what my goals were here they are again.


 Lose 2 Pounds
 Open a savings account.
Finish Spanish 1, Part 1 and Part 2.
Start and finish College Prep American History Part 1, and start Part 2.
 Box up my bedroom, and prepare to move.
 Get my hair cut and colored.
 Read 3 books.
 Find new words and schedule 5 Words posts for the next two months.
 Order a new laptop.
 Sign up and start preparing for the SAT in June.


Judging by the above I'd say I did pretty good, and I accomplished most of what I wanted to get done this month. There are a few things I need to improve on, and work on, but I'll explain them below.

Lose 2 Pounds.  The main reason I didn't accomplish this is because this month was pure chaos. We moved earlier this month and it's been hard to exercise and eat healthy when I can't get to my exercise bike to workout, and can't find certain kitchen appliances to cook healthy food with.

Open a savings account.  I decided to put this off to next month because my birthday is next month and I'm planning on putting all of my birthday money in the bank.

Finish Spanish 1 Part 2. I finished Part 1, and I'll be done with Part 2 next week, I have to wait for my teacher to grade my final and it can take 5-10 business days for that to happen.

Start and Finish College Prep American History Part 1, and start Part 2.   I wasn't really expecting to finish this one, because I knew I was being over ambitious, but I did start Part 1 of my course, so I'm happy with that.

Read 3 Books. Unfortunately I only got to read one book this month, I've been really busy with moving and I've been sick, so this month I wasn't able to read as much as I wanted to.

Sign up and start preparing for the SAT in June. I've started preparing for the SAT, I just haven't got signed up yet.

That's all for today, I really can't believe tomorrow is the last day of the month, it's crazy how time is flying by!

XoXo,

February Weight Loss

Good Morning lovelies, I can't believe it's already the last week of February, it's hard to believe that nearly two months have gone by since the start of the new year. 
This month has been kind of crazy and all over the place, and I'm just so over it.
I mentioned earlier this month that we we planning on moving, and so now we're trying to get settled in and get everything unpacked. I have severe OCD and living out of boxes and not being organized or able to find anything is driving me insane! 
So obviously the moving process has been mentally draining, but it's also screwed up my diet and exercise plan!

Diet: 
Ugh, I'm hating writing this months update on my diet and exercise. It's not good, none of it, I've been very naughty this month, and now I'm regretting it! Since we've been living out of boxes all month it's been really hard to eat healthy, well-balanced meals. 
       Usually we only eat fast-food once a month, but this month I can think of at least five occasions where we've opted for fast-food over home-cooked meals. 
      We should have the kitchen in working order by the end of the week, but for now things are all over the place, and I'm just going to have to deal with the craziness.

Exercise:
 I haven't really been able to do much exercise this month because I can't get to any of my equipment. But on the bright side I have been doing a lot of lifting and moving stuff around. 


So did I lose any weight?


Weight Lost This Week:  0 Pounds
Total Weight Loss:          18 Pounds


   Unfortunately I didn't lose any weight this month, and to be honest I wasn't really expecting to either. This month has been so crazy and I've been so stressed that I just haven't really been able to focus on my health, but that's going to change, and now that things are settling down I'm going to get back on track.

 That's all for today, tomorrow I'm going to be posting about something that means a lot to me tomorrow so don't forget to check back.
XoXo,

February Goals

    Last Monday I told you about my new blogging schedule, and so today I will be sharing with you my goals for the month of February. I hate looking back and feeling like I didn't accomplish anything the month before, so that's kinda of why I wanted to start making monthly goals.

  • Lose 2 Pounds.
  • Open a savings account.
  • Finish Spanish 1, Part 1 and Part 2.
  • Start and finish College Prep American History Part 1, and start Part 2.
  • Box up my room, and prepare to move.
  • Get my hair cut and colored.
  • Read 3 Books.
  • Find new words and schedule 5 Words series for the next 2 months.
  • Order a new laptop.
  • Sign up and start preparing for the June SAT.

    I wanted to start posting my monthly goals because I think it will help me accomplish everything I want to do this year.
     For example in order to prepare for #10 I'm going to sign up to take a practice test.  I get test anxiety, so that's why I want to take a practice test, that way I know what I'm getting myself in to when I take the real test in June.
     Most of the others are pretty simple, and others I'm going to have to put a lot of work into, in order to accomplish (#3 and #4).

      I'm going to keep you updated about my goals and whether or not I accomplish them, I just haven't decided how I want to do it yet. I'm either going to do a post at the end of every month, or I'm just going to include it in the next months goals post.

                Let me know which you would prefer, by leaving a comment below.
                                                                                  XOXO,
                                                                                         Lori Ann

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 50

     Okay, so today is the last day of WLM's, and I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad. I'm still going to be doing a weight loss series just not every week, I don't really wanna get in to it today so just check back next Monday for the big announcement/ changes.


Diet:  My diet has been okay, not the best, but I decided Yesterday that I'm going to get back on track. I started using the MyFitnessPal app on my phone again, and it usually keeps me on track.

Exercise:  I still haven't been able to get back to exercising as much as I had been. But I did make it to the chiropractor on Thursday, and I'm going again later today, so hopefully I'll start feeling better soon. Yesterday I was able to get back on the stationary bike for 20 minutes, it hurt, but not as much as I thought it would.


So did I lose any weight?

Weight Lost This Week:  1 Pound
Total Weight Loss:          18 Pounds

   Yes!!! I know it's only one pound, but to me every pound counts. Next Monday I go back to get blood work done for the first time since I lost about 10 pounds, so I'm really hoping it shows. Overall I'm feeling okay, but I think I may be anemic, I can usually tell when I'm anemic, and I'm starting to show the signs.


     That's all for today, tomorrow I'm going to be posting about some of my Recent Gifts and Purchases, then on Wednesday I'll have my first book review since November, and of course on Friday I'll have my 5 Words.
                                                                            Stay Creative,
                                                                                             Lori Ann

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 48 & 49

       Happy Monday!!! I hope you all had a great weekend, and that you're ready for this week.

Diet:   My diet has been pretty good the past few weeks, I've been watching what I eat, but I also haven't been denying myself what I want. For the past week I haven't really been able to eat much cause I've been sick, so it's kinda hard to eat.

Exercise:  I haven't done much on my stationary bike, but I have been doing some walking. I haven't really been doing much though because my back has been hurting, I'm hoping I can make it to the chiropractor this week, I haven't been in about a year and a half so I'm WAY over due for an adjustment.

So did I lose any weight?

Weight Lost This Week:  0 Pounds
Total Weight Loss:          17 Pounds

    I wasn't really surprised that I hadn't lost any weight, like I said I haven't really been able to do much the past week. But that's okay, I'll get back on track as soon as I get better.


Life Update:
    So my life has been going pretty good, the new year is off to a great start. I finished my English class Part 1 with an 87 and English Part 2 with an 88. I took my last test  in my Reading and Literature class last night and finished with a 94

   That's all for today, tomorrow's gonna be any easy day, I'm just posting one of my Polyvore creations, and then on Wednesday I'll have a nail polish review up.
                                                                            Stay Creative,

2014 New Years Resolutions!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! I cannot believe it's 2014 already, and even though I'm super bummed another year has flown by, I'm determined to make the most of the year.



     Today I'm going to share with you my goals for the year, and tell you a little about them.


1. Blog More.
   - For the biggest part of last year I only blogged 3 times a week, but towards the end of the year I started posting 4 times a week. I want to keep up with that, and maybe even work towards blogging 5 times a week.

2. Graduate or be Close to Graduating High School.
  - Right now I'm super motivated, and I wanna get this done, that way next year I can go to college, and really start my life.

3. Find a Part-Time Job.
   - I tried last year to find a job, but no one was hiring. So this year I'm gonna search more, and just keep applying, until I finally get a job. Plus I have a friend who's dad is opening up their 3rd Subway store, so I think if I asked he would probably hire me.

4. Crack Down on My Reading List.
   - I have a whole list of books I want to get read, some for entertainment, and others for my High School and College Reading List.

5. Finish the First Draft of My Novel
  - I've never really talked about this on here before, but in November I started writing my first novel with the help of NaNoWriMo. Since NaNo ended I've been slacking off on my writing, but this is something I really wanna stick with, and I wanna finish at least the first-draft by the end of the year.

6. Lose 60 Pounds.
  - I know that sounds like a lot, but that's what I'm going for, I need to do this, and I need to do it now. Not for anyone else, I need to do it for me, and only me. I need to learn to love myself, but I know if I don't lose all this extra weight I'm carrying around, then I'll never be able to love myself the way I want to be able to.

7. Take the SAT and ACT.
   - This was on my list last year, but I didn't feel ready to take it. So I think I'm gonna sign up for the testing date in March.

8. Visit Colleges & Universities I Want to Attend
 - This year I HAVE to visit some campuses so I can decide where to apply starting in the fall.

9. Make it Out of the State of Kentucky at Least Once
  - This kinda ties into the visiting campuses because I'l have to go out of state to see most of my top picks. This one is going to be hard because my mom HATES traveling, but hopefully I'll have my drivers permit by then and can do most of the driving for her.

10. Get My Driver's Permit
    - I want this so bad, but my mom is always working and can't take me. But I WILL go this year, hopefully next week and get this done.

   So there you have it, my 10 New Years Resolutions, I hope you'll stick around this year to watch me achieve them!
                                               Stay Creative,
                                                               Lori Ann

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 46 & 47

   Can you believe tomorrow is the last day of the year? And that means today is the last Weight Loss Monday's post of the year. Wow, it's really hard to believe that.
       Last week I chose not to make a WLM's post because I didn't think anyone would read it with all of the Holiday celebrations going on last week. Another reason for that is because I'm kinda getting tired of doing this every week since I don't necessarily have something to tell you every single week.
      My schedule is really full next month, I think I only like writing one post and then I'll have the entire month filled up, so because of that I don't have room to make any changes quite just yet. But there are changes coming in February, I will announce these changes the last week of January, and I'm really excited to tell all of you about it.
      But since I can't tell you anymore right now let's get started with this week's weight update.

Diet: I had three Christmas dinners last week, we went to my Nana's house last Sunday, my Aunt Jane's house on Christmas Eve, and then my mom cooked on Christmas Day. I did eat a little bit more than normal, but I made sure I didn't overeat or get too full.  Last week I was craving chocolate really bad, so I made Oreo truffles, and they were amazing, I still have a few left too.

Exercise: I did get a little bit of exercise last week, but not enough. I've been sick, and I haven't been getting but about 2 hours of sleep at night so I haven't had the energy to do any exercise.

So did I lose any weight?

Weight Lost this week:   1 Pound
Total Weight Loss:        17 Pounds

     I lost one pound, I was not expecting it at all. To be honest I actually wrote this post on Saturday, and the scale wasn't showing any difference but when I weighed myself Yesterday I had lost a pound, so I had to rewrite some of this post.
    Even if I hadn't lost any weight last week i'd still be happy, I'm leaving the year a very happy girl. I finished my English course last week and I got my grades back, on one of my research papers I got a 90%, and then on my English Midterm I got a 100%, so I'm super happy about that.

   That's all for today, tomorrow I'll be posting my Top 4 posts of the year, Wednesday will be my New Years Resolutions, and Thursday will be the Shows I'm Looking Forward to Watching this Winter. So as you can see this week is a full week, and I will be posting everyday, I think that's a great way to start off the new year, and I hope you enjoy it.
                                                          Stay Creative,
                                                                           Lori Ann

Weight Loss Monday's Week 45

     Happy Monday! I ope your week is off to a great start, and hopefully you get to take a little bit of time to relax this week.
     I'm hoping that if my mom can find the time hopefully today I can go take my test to get my drivers permit, I've been trying to get her to take me since my birthday in March, but she's been too busy with work, so I MADE her give me the $20 on Friday and I TOLD her we WERE going this week to do it. I'm just hoping she actually listened to me.

     So for now here's what happened last week.....

Diet: My diet has been pretty good this week, I've stayed under my calorie goal (1200 calories) everyday.
Exercise: I've really slacked off on my exercise this week, I'm disappointed, but I'm definitely getting back on track this week.

   For the biggest part the main reason I didn't really exercise last week is because I was sick all week, my stomach was really upset from the weekend before when we were stuck in the hotel, with very little food option.
     Another reason is because I was really stressed this week, and I needed a break. I kinda had a little breakdown, Thursday I had a severe Anxiety/Panic attack, and so I've been trying to slow down since then, and just relax. It really scared me,because it had been a while since my last Anxiety/Panic attack and I wasn't prepared for it at all.

    So did I lose any weight?

Weight Lost this Week:     2 Pounds
Total Weight Loss:           16 pounds

    I was shocked when I stepped on the scale and saw that I had lost two pounds, it really suprised me, and I wasn't expecting it.

     That's all for today, I'll be posting one of my Polyvore creations tomorrow and again on Wednesday, so don't forget to check back for that.
                                                          Stay Creative,
                                                                         Lori Ann

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 44

     Happy Monday!!! I hope you all had a great weekend, mine was very interesting, and I was surrounded by a bunch of lunatics, but we had fun.

Diet:  For most of the week everything was pretty good, but the weekend was awful. We had an ice storm over the weekend, and so we've been staying at the hotel my mom works at all weekend, I think we're going home today, but it really just depends on how icy the roads are because another round of ice came through yesterday.
      So because we're in a hotel we've pretty much been eating junk. We had Friday Denny's, Domino's on Saturday, and we had Little Caesars Pizza Yesterday. In between has been hot chocolate, and for breakfast one waffle and some little sliced up sausages.

Exercise:  Well I've kinda made up for my awful diet through working with my mom. I worked the floor Friday for three hours, two hours Saturday, and I worked in laundry for about 30 minutes Yesterday. On top of that Friday night I worked in the gym here in the hotel, and I also worked earlier in the week on the stationary bike.



Weight Lost this Week: ???
Total Weight Loss:  16 Pounds

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 42 & 43

    I'm back!!!!! And I'm super happy about it, I got a new laptop, temporarily till January, then I'm going to order a Mac.
    The past two weeks have been insane, but a good insane.

Diet: My diet has been pretty good. Last week I could hardly eat because I had an allergic reaction to a new Chapstick I bought and so my lips were swollen and covered in bumps, it's still hard to eat, but my mouth has almost healed.

Exercise: In the past two weeks I have really stepped up the exercise. I've been getting on my stationary bike everyday, in the past two weeks I've only missed 4 days of exercising, but those days I made up for it in walking.

    I've also come to the conclusion that I am allergic to long-haired dogs. I've never had a problem with short-haired dogs, but we tried to take in a dachshund/poodle mix last week, and it ended with me being sick, and having to take the dog back to my aunt.

So Any results?

   Yes, I've lost 2 pounds, and it's really motivated me to keep going, and stay on track.

       So that is all for today, I shall be posting again tomorrow, Wednesday, and Friday, so be sure to check back for that.

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 38

    I would say last week was a pretty successful week, and I hope that continues into this week.
Last week I took my first English exam since I started back into my classes, and I made a 90. Today I'll be taking my second English exam, and I also have to write a political speech, that everyone seems to hate, so this week should definitely be fun.

    I did very well with my diet last week, usually I'll have a soda once or twice a week, but I didn't have any last week. I did however have a  cup of hot chocolate a few times last week. I hardly had any chocolate, I've kinda just lost interest in it, and I did pretty well with everything else.

    I didn't really improve in the exercise area, but I think I definitely did more than I did the week before. The reason behind this is that I've just been spending so much time studying, and doing my school work, that I'm having a hard time finding time to exercise.

  Any results?

   I was so happy when I saw the scale, and I just really hope it stays off, and that I can keeping losing weight like this.

 So that is all for today, I shall be posting again tomorrow, Wednesday, and Friday, so be sure to check back for that. Stay Creative, I'll post again very very soon.

Weight Loss Monday's: Week 37

     Last week was actually a pretty good week, the weather is beautiful, and I feel like I really accomplished a lot.
   For my diet, I did really well, I didn't eat much, because I have a sore throat, and I've also been sick to my stomach a lot this past week.
    Last week I actually did more exercise than I had in the past few weeks, so I feel like that really helped.

Weight Lost Last Week:  1 Pound
Total Weight Loss:  12  Pounds

    I wasn't really sure if I had lost weight, I felt like I had but I wasn't sure. I'm starting to be able to see results, around my shoulders, and collar bone. One pound may not seem like much, but I feel like it's a start, and I'm just happy I'm actually losing weight, and that I'm no longer at a standstill.

    So that is all for today, I shall be posting again tomorrow, Wednesday, and Friday, so be sure to check back for that. Stay Creative, I'll post again very very soon.
