I am a huge football fan! So is my husband earlier in the week we have watched some college bowl games (they were all pretty good) because we just like watching football. I am starting this post after the two games on Saturday because I have to work most of the day Sunday. Before these four games started I picked the four I wanted to win...they were the Chiefs, Eagles, Bengals, and Packers.
I wanted the Chiefs to win because my family as well as my husband's family all like the Chiefs. After half time when it was 38 -10 I thought the Chiefs had it in the bag, my husband I even talked about it. We thought if they could hold them or at least make them take awhile for each score that they could easily win. Clearly, that didn't happen and the Chiefs ended up losing my 1 to the Colts. The Colts just scored too fast for the Chiefs to hold onto their lead. Funny story (actually not SO funny) my husband tried to call and talk to his brother after the game and his brother didn't want to talk to him because he was so mad.
The next game, didn't go in my favor either. I didn't really care who won this one. I picked the Eagles because I like them more then the Saints, and I liked the idea of the young quarterback. This game had a really slow start (a battle of the defenses) but in the second half the points came and in the end the Saints won by 2 points.
Neither team that I wanted to win, won on Saturday! Hopefully Sunday will hold better luck for me! What teams did you pick?

Work Time Again!
Sorry I forgot to push publish, instead of save last night
Today was the first time back to work since before finals in December. I forgot how much patience my job takes at time. I am a cashier at a grocery store. Sometimes, I work at the cashier in the food court area. Today was one of those days, I worked 7 AM (it was SO hard to get up this morning) until 3 PM, meaning I got the breakfast and lunch rush! There are certain customers that come in that many people try and avoid. They are never mean or unhelpful, they just might not go the extra mile for them.
One of these customers that I had never seen before came in today. He started talking to me and I didn't believe hardly anything he was saying, but I tried to be nice anyway. It took him awhile to order and when I took it back to the cook, she said that he follows our main kitchen manager around the store. I laughed and said, "Well, if he tries to follow me around, he will be walking in small circles all day." I am usually very busy and constantly moving, but I am in small area where customers can sit and eat. I felt bad for the
guy and tried to talk to him, but I think he got bored of following me after he finished eating because he left and continued his shopping. I had another worker come up to me, while he was sitting and eat and tell me not to listen to anything he says, it's a bunch of BS. I told her I figured that out within the first few sentences. There is no harm in letting him talk to me, at least he won't bother anyone else.
Besides that customer the morning was slow, we had some regulars and that was about it. When I came back from my break a little after noon, it was a mad house! My job is to check people out and bus the tables and help if the kitchen needs it. I had someone helping me check for 20 minutes and we had a constant 10 people that whole time! Pretty much the rest of my shift was busy with people checking out and cleaning up their tables, I did make a few handwritten signs as well.
On a positive not I got to try the best sushi EVER (and I am not a huge sushi fan)! My register is right by the sushi counter and they were a new roll that they had never made so everyone in Chinese, Sushi, & I got to try it! It was called a South Philly Roll I think...It had
White Rice & Seaweed
Smoked Salmon
Cucumbers
Avocado
Honey Wasabi (which tasted like Honey Mustard)
and something else, which I can't remember! It was so good!
When I got home my husband I went to the gym and ran 1 mile and then ran on the elliptical for about 1.3 miles. I haven't written any specific goals for this year down, but one for sure (like everyone else) is to get more in shape!

A New Year & A New Start!
I am sorry that I have been gone for
so long! I tried to start another blog and I decided that this is more
representative of the type if blog I want. I want to use this blog to talk
about every part of my life, whether that means beauty, studying or
relationships. I am a 22 year old married college student that is majoring in
Elementary Education. My husband and I found a kitten, Oliver, in a construction site in late October. We then adopted
another kitten, Benji, from our local Humane Society, in late December. Our apartment didn't
allow cats, so we moved to a single family home a little farther from campus.
All in all, I am excited for 2014. It should be a great year and I am excited to share it with you! Let me know if you have any questions/comments below! ~Annelise

February Favorites!
February Favorites!
I know a long time again, but its favorites time again. February has been a crazy month with Valentines Day, Career fairs, nice warm days, snow and tests!
My first favorite is my foundation, it is the Maybelline Fit Me foundation I purchased last spring. It is a little dark for my skin tone right now but it blends out nicely and gives medium to full coverage. I usually wear BB creams but when I need a foundation this is the one I reach for. So this came in very handy this month with career fairs and Valentine's Day! The only thing I am not a fan of is the opening which is just a whole, so it is hard to control how much comes out I usually get way too much, its not terribly expensive so this is not a huge deal.
My next favorite is a concealer, it is the Covergirl truconceal mine is in 1(the lightest shade). It works wonders underneath my eyes brightening them up and covering the dark circles. It is very creamy, but still light enough so it never appears cakey. I don't think it is thick enough for acne though. 
The next two are blushes the first is Revlon's Cream Blush in Rosy Glow. It is a gorgeous color with a peachy rose color. It gives a subtle color your cheeks. It can stand alone but also looks great with other blushes. It also has a neat pop-out mirror! 
The second blush is Maybelline Fit Me blush in Deep coral. It is similar to the cream blush but it is more of a mauve pink color (the two do look fantastic together). This blush is also a very natural blush on my skin tone. 
Have a good day!

November Favorites(Part 1: Face Products)!
I know I haven't been on here in awhile, but I am going to try and make it more regular so here is my Favorite things for November! If you want to watch the video click on the link in the bottom!
The First thing is my Sea Breeze Sensitive Skin Astringent. I love this stuff, I use it at least once a day. It is better than just a cleansing cloth because it get your face so much cleaner and its pretty inexpensive and lasts a long time! It does have a strong mint smell that sometimes makes my eyes water, but that is it. I am so in love with how clean it get my skin!
The next thing is my Garnier Skin Renew BB Cream. It is great for the winter when your skin gets dry. It has pretty decent coverage and looks super natural. It reduces the redness on my skin and pimples. It had SPF 15 in it which is nice for all the year.
The last face products is the elf complete coverage concealer in light. What I love to do with is putting the lightest color underneath my eyes to brighten them up. The other colors I will use (depending on the time of year) for pimples if they are just little. It doesn't cover up major pimples though. But I love it!

Sunsets
I love sunsets and where I live has the most beautiful sunsets! The only bad things its hard to catch all the colors with a camera. Before school ended my fiance,some of our friends and I went to a lake by our school and I got a picture of the sun setting over the water. It doesn't have the colors I love but it setting over the hill and reflecting into the water...ahh I love it. Do you have pretty sunsets where you live?
