Dance Like No One's Watching

Some people are born natural dancers and some aren't. I was definitely born a natural dancer. I was practically dancing out of the womb. Well, not literally, but I don't think anyone would be surprised if they found out I did. When I was a little girl, whenever a song would play on the radio, or we'd happen to pass by street musicians, you better know I was going to get up and dance my heart out (just as a side note, I used to wear tutus no matter the occasion, and wouldn't leave the house unless I had a tutu on, so that tells you a lot about me right there).

I've taken dance classes for about 7 years, but stopped once I got to middle school. I switched to soccer and then later I would make my final switch to volleyball. I had nothing against dance, but I just found something else I loved more. And like I said in my previous post, don't waste your time on something you don't love. Although I felt more passion for soccer at the time, I still had so much of a connection and love for dancing. When I left dance, it's not like I just stopped dancing. The complete opposite actually. I began to dance more! I spent so much time dancing to Lady Gaga's song "Telephone" and would only do chores if I had music to dance to in the background. I loved to dance at restaurants if there was a live band or at my sisters sports games during timeouts. I had absolutely no bit of embarrassment. Never once did I limit myself from dancing all out, no matter how awful the moves might have been.

A phrase I didn't understand then, but do now, is "dance like no one's watching". It's always been a way for me to take my mind off of stress or allow my creativity energy to flow. It brings me back to my childhood and it reminds that, although I'm not a little girl anymore, that doesn't mean I can't still be a kid at heart.

Top 5

Today's top 5 category is my top 5 favorite Easter basket goodies!

1. Russel Stover peanut butter chocolates

   First off, I would like to start by saying that all of their chocolates are amazing, but their peanut butter chocolates are by far the best! Check out our shop to buy some, as well as see some more of our recommendations!

   
   
   
   
   
   

2. M&M's

   I am a big fan of their caramel M&M's, and let's be honest, every M&M's flavor is amazing! What's your favorite M&M flavor? Comment down below!

   
   

3. Chupa Chup suckers

   These suckers are so nostalgic, especially their chocolate vanilla flavor ones. I remember as a kid putting tokens into a claw machine at an arcade to get as many of these as possible...

4. Reeses

   If you can't already tell, I have an obsession with peanut butter, so Reeses have and will always be top tier for me.

5. 3 Musketeers

   This might be a bit controversial, but when eating a 3 Musketeer, you have to eat the chocolate first and then the nougat last since it is the best part. I have yet to simply just bite into a 3 Musketeer. If you haven't tried eating them this way, I suggest you do!

Song on Repeat

Breakin Dishes ~ Rhianna

If you're ever feeling really upbeat and feel like listening to a high-energy pop song, this is such a fun song! I don't know what it is, but I've been on a 2000s kick lately! Also, can we also just take a second to appreciate this superstar? If I had to describe her fashion, makeup brand, and past Superbowl performance in one word it would be iconic.
