Presents.

So Wesley went to Hawaii with his family last week. He came back with a bunch of lovely presents for me.



These came out of an oyster that he got from a shop, and if you find pearls in it you get to keep them! I think I'm going to put one in a necklace and the other in a ring. Not completely sure yet.



Another place they went to was Lush Cosmetics. Wesley ended up getting a facial there and after telling me how ridiculously expensive they are, he got me this Dark Angels cleanser. It has black sugar, avocado and charcoal in it. It made my face feel amazing after only using it once. It's really helping my skin. And he also got me this Tea Tree Water toner. I haven't been able to use it properly yet, but I'm pretty sure it will work out great. I was so happy when he gave these to me because I love Lush and never knew where any of the locations were.



He also got me this awesome wooden bookmark. I think that might be one of the Tiki Gods or whatever carved into it. Either way, I think its awesome. I've been really needing a good bookmark so I was very pleased when he gave this to me.



That box is hand carved wood in the shape of a pineapple with cookies inside! They're delicious, and the box is sweet.





He gave me that bracelet and earrings together. They're so beautiful. The earrings are sterling silver and is the Hawaiian state flower. The bracelet has turtles and I think the Hawaiian state flower on it. These are probably my favorites of what he got me. Soo beautiful.

So did I mention I own a record player?

I got it for my 16th birthday and I've been slowly getting records ever since. One of the main contributors to my record collection is my lovely sister, Jennifer. She got me two for my birthday because we all knew I was getting a record player. And just recently, she got me three more. She gave them to me at her going away party. She got me the My Fair Lady soundtrack, the Annie soundtrack and A Chorus Line soundtrack. I love them all.




I'm hoping that I'll be able to keep building my record collection for a very long time and that they never go out of style.

This post is long overdue.

Earlier this month, I went to a theme park in Utah called Lagoon. I love that place and our decision to go was pretty spontaneous. I went with Wesley, his brother Matt, and his girlfriend, Sammee. We had a grand time, I didn't take any pictures while we were at the park but I did take some of the stuff I came home with.

This is the robot necklace Wesley bought me at the end of our day, it's so cute!


Wesley also bought me these sunglasses, right before going into the park's water park called Lagoon A Beach. I think they're a little too small for me but I still love them!


This is the awesome cup that I got to combine a bunch of slushie flavors in. They were the delicious.


And finally, these are the pictures Wesley and I took in a photobooth in the park. I've always wanted to do them with him and we finally got the chance. I think they're way cute.

That day was probably one of my favorites of the summer and I cannot wait to go again. Hopefully I'll be going for Halloween!

Hello!

My name is Megan Ruiz and I live in a semi-small town in Idaho. For those of you that don’t know where Idaho is, it’s the place where Napoleon Dynamite was filmed and it’s probably where you get your potatoes from. I’m a senior in high school and I’m ready to be done with it right about now. I don’t hate school, I just hate the people in it.
My biggest passion is Theatre. I love acting and all the backstage stuff. It’s what I spend most of my time doing. Up until about a month ago, I wanted to major in theatre when I go to college. But plans have changed. It’s still my passion- I just don’t know if I want to make a career out of it. I’m now thinking of either getting my bachelors in either social work or culinary arts or getting a masters in counseling. I want to go to school in Seattle.
I have a lovely boyfriend named Wesley. He is the best person I know. He has a kind heart, a strong mind, and a smart mouth. He’s incredibly talented and we share some of the same passions.
I’m also a Christian. I love God with all my heart and believe Jesus as my savior. I go to an evangelical church with the sweetest people out there.
Well, there’s a little bit about me. Maybe I’ll figure out what to do with this site and not let it die. Let’s hope, yeah?
