If you know me then you know that I am an organized freak. I may not be an extremer organizer, but higher than the average person.
I love planners! Anything and everything about them. I even follow planner accounts on Instagram. Pinterest is also a large portion of where I get my ideas for planner DIYS.

At the end of my 7th year at school, I immediately started working on my school supplies. My school supplies us with a school planner but they are so boring and uncreative. So, for me personally, I didn't want to use it. This is why I decided to make my own planner.

The theme of this planner is gold, pastel, and everything chic. ;) Here is a look at my school planner. Enjoy!

Most of the items I got were from Michaels and/or the Target Dollar Spot. The other 3rd I already had stored away. My vision for this planner was to (obviously) keep me organized but most importantly keep me inspired. If I have a writer's block I can open it up and find amazing quotes inside or little pictures with my friends in it. All of this was to help me out. My favorite thing about my planner is the personal touches I made to it. I like how I can store memories on a page for when I want to remember something forever. But for real... it did cost a lot of money. More expensive than some other planners but to me I see it as something I can use for a very long time. You couldn't find one of theses in the stores. The only way to find a great planner that fits your life is to DIY it! I know after showing my friends my planner they wanted to create their own! I can't see what they have come up with. 

I have a few questions for you to answer in the comments:

1. After seeing this would you want to make one yourself? 

If you do make a planner OR already have a DIY planner then tag me your photos on Instagram or Twitter. I would absolutely love to see it! 

2. What was your favorite thing about my planner and is there anything that you think would look good in my planner? 

Again, I would love to hear your suggestions!

How to : Generally be more Happier

My friends always ask me, "why are you always so happy and cheerful?" Usually, I answer "I don't know. I just am!" Personally, I don't think there is really one big great way to just be happy all the time. I think what happens around you and what you do with your day has an effect on how you act. I like to think that the happier you are the better outcome of your day. Even if it is pouring rain and dark and gray,  you still have the option for that best day ever. I know I have some of those days at school. Just a simple thing like a nice compliment or nice wave in the morning to that neighbor you don't really know can change your day! All of those small things turn into something bigger. Today, I have come up with some ways you can try out and use in your life for being happy!

Here are my tips and tricks for being more happier!

1. Try something new

Never shy away from a new activity. The thought might be scary at first but

the outcome will benefit you as a whole! Some might say, "Challenge excepted!"

2. Don't be afraid to be you

Don't hide away the imperfect stuff. That makes you, you!

3. Have some alone time once in a while

It's nice to just have some you time every now and then. I know when I need my alone time. You don't want your unhappiness get in the way!

4. Smile
Yes, it's that simple. Just smile! :) It uses little muscle and it can change your whole day!

5. Help others out

I personally feel amazing inside when I do something good for someone else. It doesn't matter if someone saw you do it or not; it's the outcome that matters.

6. Laugh at yourself!

Laughing is the best medicine. For me, I challenge myself every day to laugh at something or myself (mostly myself! ;) 

I hope you enjoyed my list of my tips and tricks on being more happier. If you have any tips please comment them below so we can all share our happy tips with each other!

Throw Back: Halloween Party 2015

Hey guys! Here are some photos of my Halloween party from last year. I had so much fun setting up and planning all the little details. My friends and I have already come up with a group costume for this year and Halloween is in 257 days! Crazy! I think my favorite part about having this party was trick-or-treating with a really awesome outfit. But, also bobbing for apples afterward. It was so funny and we ended up just getting really wet and laughing our heads off. (Good times :p) I can't wait for this year's party and fun new memories! 

Thanks so much for reading. I hope you enjoyed a fun throwback! 

My Favorite Quotes

 Hey everyone! For this blog post, I have decided to put together my favorite quotes found on the internet. I hope you find these quotes motivational and inspirational like I do. Personally, I live by quotes. I have a mirror of quotes so, every morning when I get ready for the day, I read my quotes to start my morning off right. ;) 

Comment which quote you liked the best. Mine was by CoCo Chanel. She is a person I look up to. Also, if you have any quotes that help you through the day, share it in the comment section. I would love to read them and maybe I will your quote on my mirror!
