My Dream Job

January 17, 2017 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Best way to gain followers is by following and commenting others.

Wise words that I use to follow back when I was in college and had time to do so. Now that I’m working full time and juggling life, it’s harder.

I constantly tell my boyfriend he needs to make enough so that I could work from home, be a full time blogger and YouTuber with a side job until I make it big. Then we can both “work from home” and travel everywhere.

A dream that would make my world if it did become a reality but I think about what it would be like if it became a job and it was the only source of income. Would I love it still and continue or start to dislike it because it’s so routine?

Plus, it’s so hard when your family is not down to be photographed or recorded. Else, it’ll be so much easier! Come on family, support my dreams!

Stuffed Bell Pepper & Banana Chocolates | Scruffy

Speaking of the boyfriend, he brought me my lunch today, heated it up, and hand delivered it to me with utensils! And he added dessert on the side! Little banana chocolates I gave him from Hong Kong, wrapped up in a paper towel. So sweet. #littlethings

I am currently in the process of updating things for the blog. I miss writing about life and all the experiences I go through which mostly means restaurants and occasional activities. I’ve been getting back to stalking people and their lives as well. I miss it.

Is It The Weekend Yet?

February 15, 2016 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Hi, there!

If you jump over, you’ll see the blog got a makeover Friday. Not 100% sure how I like it and might rework the code to make it more my own (fonts and colors and such) but it shall do for now. I freaked out at around 12 am because it had an error message and it wouldn’t let me navigate anywhere but to the error page. Luckily I figured out the back end and re-coded the error and viola … so proud of myself. I miss the stress that comes from coding errors.

I had one of the best Valentine’s weekend ever. Massages, eating at new places, movies, being driven places, and the such. More on that sometime this week. But I would say, I watched Deadpool for the second time in a week. Because it was that great. So … seriously, get off your butt and watch it.

My brother totaled his car a few weeks ago and this weekend my dad totaled his. Oy vey. Luckily everyone is okay. I’m sad to see the Camry go. Friends, dance and sport practices, tournaments, boyfriends, hospital visits, etc. … so many college memories were in that car. Bye, bye Camry.

Maybe I’ll take this Friday off. This weekend was definitely draining … but in a good way.

Hope you all have a wonderful Monday!

The year I thought would treat me right since my jersey number is 15 …
