Four Friend Inspired Feel-goods

The first month of the year is almost done. What's the situation with the New Year resolutions and all those plans? Keeping on track or falling a little behind? Well here's the thing...........you still have plenty of time and I decided to give my two cents to my faithful few who have been craving that feel good about you no matter what state of mind you're in.

These are things I have learnt from some of my fave girls (see if you can figure out who these people are ;))

1. Feeling bored? I learnt this from a "steely" girl. Put on some popping lipstick and take some banging pictures of yourself (self-timer is a girl's favourite button) Not even for Facebook either. Just do it for you. Print the best one, frame it and put it in your room or send it right to your phone.

2. A certain articulate songstress, has the scoop on the RIGHT way to wear a t-shirt (that is not too big of course). Now some freshly pampered feet in some cute gladiators will do the trick. Cute without trying too hard. And as for the feet pampering, just soak your feet in some warm water with shampoo (yes I said shampoo) and buff with a pumice stone. Shampoo and a pumice stone will last longer than all the time, effort and $$$ it will take for a few pedicures and right now low maintenance is where it's at.

3. Now this one I was reminded of just the other day, when you miss a friend who is a big part of your days and they're not around at the time. What's the best way to cheer yourself up? Do the favourite thing you did together and leave a note, msg online, or comment on their profile to let them know they are being missed. Pancakes anyone?

4. Last one, (for now anyway) (pretty personal I might add) what to do when you think you need a REALLY good pick-me-up after one of those looooooonnnnnggggggg weeks and there is no date or plan? Listen here time to LOVE YOU. When last have you really spent the evening with your favourite person i.e. YOU? Put on your fave movie, or watch some good sitcom marathons on Comedy Central , TBS, make yourself some chicken breast with a little pasta, paint your toes that favourite colour and just RELAX. I guarantee you'll be glad you did.

  1. You know... I condone all of those suggestions... ESPECIALLY number 3! Sometimes you find yourself singing some Dreamgirls, Watching some ANTM or even blending Orange Juice with a certain tasty perfectly served beverage... the important thing is to always remember who or what is important to you ... and put a little time aside for it...

    Love you Browning!

  2. I quite like number one!
    U know... There's this thing I do too... On Sundays for breakfast I make pancakes (purely coincidental) and smother it with all the butter and syrup I want...why? Mostly because I can... My point is other than just taking some time out to spend with u (suggestion 3) you can mark out a day of the week and just make a point to do something special every time that day comes around. Make it a tradition of sorts... life is about making lasting traditions I think...
    By the way Keeta... ur beauty fixes are BOSS!!! dem good til dem coulda print inna gleana'
