We Accept the Love We Think We Deserve

Hello Hapi People! 

Today is a very special day. Its the 6th month mark of Zach and I's relationship. I'm not calling it an anniversary because it isn't technically a full year. However, 6 months is a significant amount of time to spend with someone. I know some of you are thinking, "Who cares?" lol, but I think it brings up an important subject. 

Obedience School

Hello Hapi People!

I am a dog lover. My dog, Mazzy, and I are starting a new adventure this week - OBEDIENCE SCHOOL! My soon-to-be two year old maltese is a bit spoiled and needs some training. Today was our first day at class. Mazzy got to socialize with the other dogs and build some confidence - all in all in went very well.

New Blog Look! featuring Pugly Pixels

Hello Hapi People!

I'm sure you have noticed something is different ... no it's not my hair. I updated the blog design! Isn't our Hapi Place pretty?! I personally think its awesome and I put a lot of satisfying work into it. I wanted the blog to be more organized and unique in design. I knew the only way to make it unique from the templates that Blogger gives you in its editor was to use ... coding. AHH!!!
DUN, DUN DUN!!!


Hapi Update

Hello Hapi People!

I'm sorry I don't have much of a post for you today. I just wanted to wish you a Hapi Weekend and give a little update. New things are happening and I'm very proud of the people around me and there achievements. (That's about all I can say right now.) I can tell you about my secret project! I am part of a new YouTube Channel called the NerdCave Network. I'm am a co-host, along with Zach Dykes, on a new show called Fist of Monkey. It's not a particularly nerdy show, but its a funny talk show that will be filled with fun and informative episodes. I will leave a link below of our video. I'm so excited!

Also, I am going to be starting obedience school with my puppy Mazzy next week! If you recall back to my Making Goals post, this was one of my goals for the summer. So, I'm excited to get that started.  I will share as we progress.


Peace&Love,
Amy



A Little Pick Me Up

Hello Hapi People!

I hope you are having a good week so far and that you enjoyed yesterday's post. Let me know here or on social media if you would like to see more LUSH posts. I don't have long post for you today but I just wanted to give a little update. Yesterday the Got 2 Be Hapi Blog page on Facebook received 400 likes! I thought it was a big milestone and there was even a little confetti. ;)


Wreck This Journal: #1

Hello Hapi People!

I told you guys I order a Wreck This Journal a couple of weeks ago and ... it finally came! I got it in the mail a couple of days ago but I want to do a few things in it before I showed you. If you don't know what a Wreck This Journal is, its a book that contains instructions on every page with ways to be creative and even destroy in the book. I will post pics of my book every week or so to show the progress. Here are some pics of the book and the little bit I've done so far ...

Here is the Front and Back cover. 
The back tells you to mail the book to yourself. 

Don't Be Afraid of Doing What You Are Meant to Do

Hello Hapi People! 

Monday, Monday ... the weekend is over and I hope you had a good one. I watched my baby sister graduate from high school this weekend. Needless to say I'm very proud of her accomplishments and her brainy brain. 


Watching Alison walk across that stage, I know it caused me to look at my own life. I am sure some of you may ponder the same - "Am I where I want to be?" ... " Have I stayed true to those big dreams I had in high school?"

Woman, What a Beauty!

Hello Hapi People!

TGIF! Do people still say that? Lol I hope you all have had a fantastic week. I am excited to share another makeup session with you today. (Sorry boys, I know these posts are girly. Some more stuff is coming your way.) My dear friend, Cindy Platt, and I sat down and played with makeup today. It was so much fun sharing tips & tricks that she can use everyday and for special occasions. Mom to one of my closets friends in high school, Cindy and I had so much fun joking around and playing pretty. I will share some of the tips I gave her for age appropriate and easy-to-do makeup tips. Here are some pics from our time together ...

Makeover! - featuring Salee Starbuck

Hello Hapi People!

I know I didn't post yesterday, I'm sorry but if you follow me on Facebook you know that life got a bit crazy. I apologize for not posting but I hope this makes up for it. I had the opportunity of doing one of my favorite things yesterday ... MAKEUP & HAIR! Lol

I'm so excited to share these photos with you from yesterday. I partnered up with an old friend, Salee Starbuck, for a photoshoot. Salee asked me to do her makeup and I gladly accepted. I am glad I got to work with her and help enhance her lovely features and complexion. I hope you all enjoy the pictures. I have always enjoyed doing makeup and hair, so if you guys like this and want to see more let me know.

Before & After

My Life in Stills

Hello Hapi People!

I hope your week started off right. I know yesterday's post was a bit heavy and maybe controversial so I thought I would switch gears today. (You never really know what I might throw at ya lol!) I thought I would take the challenge of documenting my day in pictures. Not a typical thing I do, I'm usually someone who would rather be in the moment than documenting it. However, I think picture taking makes you stop and really see what you are doing - maybe even appreciate something mundane. I just had a busy day of unexpected things but thought I would share it all with you. It was a bit of a roller coaster weekend so taking the time to just document my day gave me some peace of mind. I don't know if you guys will enjoy this at all but, here we go ...


Friday: Feedback

Hello Hapi People!

This has been a long, busy and even emotional week. I don't want to come here and complain though, I want to share in self expression with you. I am going to ask for your involvement and feedback. I have ordered a Wreck This Journal and want to know if you would like me to share my entries in the journal. If you don't know what a Wreck This  Journal is I will explain below. Please let me know on the blog, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Pinterest.

Weekend Getaway

Hello Hapi People!

Hapi Monday! I know that's a total oxymoron but I hope you had a good weekend. I had a wonderful weekend with a much needed getaway. Sometimes removing yourself from the familiarity of everyday life can be very beneficial for you. I know that I feel refreshed and ready to face my challenges. Zach and I took two little trips at the last minute because we felt the need to try something different. We also found a new way to bond by simply going to new places together and sharing the experiences.

Hapi Weekend!

Hello Hapi People!

I got one of these cool posters at the movie.
I gave it to my sister who is a big fan.
This has been a busy week with exams and I am helping my boyfriend with his school's spring play as we speak. I hope your week has been going well. I know its a busy weekend for many as I have many friends and fellow classmates who are graduating on Saturday. I am proud of of their success and wish them the best for the future. Congrats to everyone who is graduating this spring.

Anywho, I know my post was a bit more serious in nature yesterday so I thought I would celebrate the end of the week by sharing my plans for the end of the week. I saw the new Avenger movie last night and it was very good. Tonight I am taking a little road trip with my boyfriend, Zach, and we are going to Destin, FL and Atmore, AL. I will share pictures on Monday's post.

Let me know what you are doing this weekend - either in the comments, Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.


Peace&Love,
Amy

Being Real Ya'll

This post was supposed to go out yesterday but I spent a lovely evening with my boyfriend after a very long week of barely seeing each other and decided that was priority. It’s been a long week of finals and I’m almost done. Those of you who have been to school know how stressful it is during finals. I wasn’t even sure if I wanted to post about this topic of school and finals but, I want to be honest and real. In the spirit honesty, I have to say ... this semester sucked! It was horrible and I wasn't at school the majority of the time. It was difficult for me to be there from being sick, anxious, and not being able to sleep. It is the last week of school. I have been doing my best to rest up for this week and take my exams. I have one more to do this weekend but I'm pretty much done. I know judgment will come but honestly it could have been worse.
