Ah what a nice day!! :)
Went up to Neah Bay (Cape Flattery) and it is so beautiful. It had fog, but it only gave it more character! Such a wonderful place, the walk was short and pretty simple. The view of the water! Oh it is breathtaking! You have stacks of rocks sticking up, and having the waves splash up against it. Oh and one of the best parts was I saw a pretty big sized whale. There was also really cute Puffins, and some other kind of birds. Wonderful place!!
I met a few nice people there as well, which is always a plus! Maybe it is just me, but I think meeting new people on a trip makes it even better!
Well I am going to get heading out to La Push now!! :) So excited, hopefully Jacob is running around! ;)
Probably will not post for a few days, so until then,

Ha ha OK to be honest, I think I've confused how many days I have been here. But oh well I don't need to know the dates... that just means I am having a blast. But for the past few days I have been in Forks still. I've been here longer than expected, but that is quite alright with me! I love it here, the people are so friendly. I even got told to come work here next summer, and got the business card! Pretty awesome! Today though, I went to Hoh Rainforest! It was so awesome there, except I was so tired... maybe too tired to enjoy it as much as I could've. But I still loved it!!! There was so many neat trees there. A must see if you enjoy nature, and hiking. If you are not a hiker though, it is still worth seeing because there are different parts of the Hoh Rainforest that are just flat land so it wouldn't be hard to hike. I have some photos of the trial I took and will post them on here sometime, hopefully the pictures are not bad.
Headed back to Forks, and basically relaxed. Ate dinner and just went on here. So it's been a layback day. I will be going to bed EARLY tonight, because I am going to be getting up early. But off I go to the showers before they close it on me.
Oh and by the way to all the other Twilight fans, it rained today, so the Cullens will be out ;) But sad thing is, they won't sparkle! Ha ha! I saw the cutest thing, it said "Rain rain go away, we wan't Edward to sparkle today!"

Ha ha okay sooooo

So I am behind a few days... BUT that is okay, it is my blog so I am allowed to. :)
I might be back tomorrow, but who knows... Right now I have Internet because at the place I am staying has it. Anyways... here is how my days have been:
Day 1 Part 2: Got to my first destination. Got there at 2:30 am. VERY tired!
Day 2: Shopped for make-up... SPARKLY make-up (which is a must need, Edward sparkles, why can't I??)
Then what a great way to start my trip, I had to go to the doctors. Which I am okay :) but need to be careful.
Left to go to Victoria at 10 PM, stayed the night near the ferry.
Day 3: Got to ferry at 5 am. Which is pretty early seeing as how I didn't get much sleep. Ferry I was on was the MC Coho or the Black Ball. I must recommend it to anyone who is wanting to go to Port Angeles from Victoria. Such a beautiful view!
Later on I got off the ferry, and started going through the town, and BAM another thing that REALLY sucks! The camper broke down. Apparently if I wasn't careful, it could have even blown up... talk about giving you a good scare eh? But luckily my hero fixed it, with his co-assistant (ME! Ha ha) I want to say thanks to the people at 'Shucks' they were so nice, and really went out of there way to fix this thing. Then got on the road once again, and man oh man, I want to move to Port Angeles one day. It is so beautiful there, and the people are so nice. It is such a perfect place to live! Not too big, but not too small. It is a city/country kind of town, which is totally what I love.
At 4 pm I ate at the famous 'La' Bella Italia. I have to say that the food was so good! I keep craving to go eat there once again! Ha ha. I had, of course, the Mushroom Ravioli with a Coke. (If you hate mushrooms, believe me still try it!! I hated mushrooms, and I LOVE this meal.) Then I had a yummy dessert. Sad thing is I cannot remember the name. But it was so good. I was actually so happy I got in to go eat there, they told me that usually if you don't make a reservation then you have no way to get in, and that I was very lucky. (Yay, some luck!) The people there were very friendly, and funny.
Explored some around the town.
Day 4: Explored Port Angeles some more. Just walked around the town, going into all the stores. Obviously 'Dazzled by Twilight' was a must see. There were other unique stores, that were very cool as well. I also had to go to 'Port Book and News' obviously! Ha ha. Also the coolest thing ever! I found out the part where they filmed the scene where Edward saves Bella from the gang of guys in Port Angeles. So cool, I heard it was two blocks away from 'Bella Italia'. So I had to of course try and see if I could find it. Which I had awesome luck, and found it! Too cool.
Another sad thing about the trip, the 'Gottschalks' was closed!! I guess they went bankrupt or something. Because it is no longer there. But on the plus side, they kept the grad dresses, and Bella inside the display windows.
Day 5: Left Port Angeles to go to Salt Creek. Such a beautiful place to go to, a must see if you are heading that way! The view is so wonderful, and every night is just breathtaking.
Took pictures like CRAZY!
But at night time, I got bit by some strange bug on my finger. It had tons of legs and it was just weird. But my whole finger was swollen.
Day 6: Couldn't get enough, so stayed another night at Salk Creek. Still swollen finger.
Day 7: Stayed a while in Salk Creek, but then headed to Forks. Swollen finger gone down some, but still noticeable and painful.
Went to 'Dazzled by Twilight' and not to be mean, but this one was WAY better than in Port Angeles. Just relaxed. Now I am sitting here telling you about it, about to go take some night pictures. Have fun blogging, and keep in touch! :)

IT'S HERE!


(The picture is of my dirty fingernails (Sick I know). That was after washing my hands like crazy, and also....wait for it... I was wearing TWO pairs of gloves!! Just to show you all how sick my job was, ha ha! Oh and don't worry, my nails are nice and clean now!)


It is the wonderful day of me heading out of the wonderful road trip! :)
So I will try and tell you what I have so far in the day...
Day 1:
*Work- LAST DAY!
*Shower- got to be clean on the road :) Never know who you'll run into Lol!
*Eat- can't go anywhere with an empty tummy
*Listening to music and blogging- pointless but fun (probably shouldn't be doing it but oh well)
Things yet to do:
*Pack- YES I know, that should've already been done, but guess what...it isn't! Ha ha
*Paint my nails/or just remove the old nail polish-it looks disgusting, I need to look nice jeez!
*Check to see if I have everything
*Check again to see if I have everything
*Check once more to see if I forgot anything- Can't a girl be careful?? Better safe than sorry! (Okay maybe I have some O.C.D that way... but it's a good thing! Right? RIGHT!)
*Get on the road! :)

Well I better get going and start packing... ah exciting! :) ...well maybe not so much the packing, but you get my point.

I love these treeforts! Too cool! (The first one is my favorite, with the spiral stairs!) Ha ha.
Enjoy! :)

Only Tuesday?!

Can't these days go by any faster??
I have some AWESOME news! :D Remember how I told you I love the Twilight series?? Well I am going to be going to Port Angeles, Forks, La Push, and Seattle Washington. (Of course other places around those areas as well.) I will be sure to add some pictures when I get back home for all of you to have a look at. I cannot wait, it will be one awesome adventure I am sure. Who knows, maybe I will fall in love with a vampire?? Ha ha, we can only dream right?
But jeez! The time is going by SO slow! I want to go now..even though I never packed...I should probably get on that.
My last week of work now! :) Told the supervisor I will not be there Monday, which luckily he had no problem with it. They already lost four people and replaced them in a day. So they already have someone to replace me. Which is good... I guess. I am glad I won't be working anymore this summer. It is so tiring, especially now that I am so excited to be going for my trip. But still it will suck not getting a paycheck from them anymore. Can't have both ways I guess. Ha ha, but I think relaxing, and having a great summer in Forks, will totally be worth not getting the pay. But who knows, maybe Edward Cullen will date me, and then I will be rich and dating a hottie! :) But once I head to La Push, sorry Cullen you can't go over there, but Jacob can!! :)
Check back tomorrow :) I'll be here, but until then,

Band of the Day!


Band: Five O'Clock Heroes
Song: Who (Ft. Agyness Deyn)

I like the band Five O'Clock Heroes. They have a very different sound compared to most music.

Take a listen, maybe you will like them as well, if not already. :)
I am now listening to 'Speak Your Language' by them. It is another good song. Enjoy! :)

XoXoBee

New Idea??

So I was looking through my whole lot of Gordon Ramsey cookbooks and thought, maybe you all would like me to post some recipes I find yummy from his cookbooks (and others as well), rate them, tell you what book I got it from, and take pictures of the final project.
Would you be interested?? Let me know either way please. :)

XoXoBee

Got to love Mondays...


How is everyone's Monday going so far??
Mine? Well, the one day I go back to work, it decides it wants to rain! Well rain is not the word I am looking for... maybe pour is better. After all those days without it! By the way my job is to be outside, and cut trees and shrubs down, to make the town look pretty. But being in the bushes cutting down trees while pouring rain... not so much fun! And to think I was upset about it being too hot while working... man oh man I wish it was still like that! I guess you got to look on the positive side of things... the fact that it will help the fires. Where I live, there is fire after fire. It is pretty bad, but with the rain, it should help some at least! *Fingers crossed!*Hopefully it is not so terrible outside tomorrow! Atleast not when I work, I could live with it raining when I am inside! Where it is DRY! Ha ha!
Oh and about the Twilight Make-up Contest I will not be able to enter anymore. Which totally sucks! But good for the other people who entered I guess, one less person to worry about! But the reason why I can't enter anymore is that I (or someone else in the household) some how misplaced the cord that connects my videocamera, to the computer to upload the video.
Why do Monday's always have to suck?? Ha ha!
There is one good thing about this Monday, I get a yummy blueberry crumble waiting for me to eat. :) Always got to look on the bright side! :) ESPECIALLY if it involves dessert! Ha ha!!!
Feel free to tell me about your Monday. :) You can even brag if it is/was better than mine.

23rd December 2012

Warning: This topic may be scary or boring to some people!
So I saw this link on youtube.com a while back, and just thought about talking about it today. The link is: ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4sbNxpbWlds (Not the greatest quality, but still worth watching!)
I love Egyptian things, and really want to go to Egypt. Something about all the Egyptians really interests me. I think the people who get to work on mummies, and find out if they were a God or Goddess, have such a fascinating job. I remember the first time learning about Egyptians, in grade 7. It was so much fun, my teacher made everyone in the class find an Egyptian God or Goddess and research it. I ended up choosing Isis. (Cool info:Ancient Egyptians believed that the gods guided and directed the natural forces of the mind and body, and each god or goddess was responsible for protecting a particular part of the human body. Isis was responsible for the liver.)
For the school project, we had to learn all we could about this Goddess or God. But at the end of our project, we had to dress up like the God/Goddess you chose and be them for the day. It was so much fun! There was even games, that were supposedly played back then... the games, are totally not at all like what you would think of a game now. But it is just the thought that makes it so wonderful. The teacher ended up bringing a lot of Egyptian food for us to have a huge buffet. One of the best projects I have ever done! I loved it so much.
But to get back to the point, on this video I thought it was so cool so thought I would share it will you all! :) It is all about the Egyptians (obviously) and about the pyramids. But the one part that I wanted to talk about is, at the end of the video, the part about how they figure on 23rd of December 2012, the World will end. The Mayans had made a calendar which was so exact that they predicted the Solar Eclipse over Mexico City in 1991 (1000 years after the Mayans civilization had disappeared.) Which is pretty scary, if you ask me. But who knows if it will happen? To be honest, I am not so sure if the whole world would end. But I do believe something will happen on that day, I am just not so sure what. But they sure were exact about other things, so it makes you think. I find that pretty scary, yet awesome.
They sure were smart!! That's all I can say, like they built those pyramids perfectly! Without any machines, like we have now. And to make a pyramid now, just like those, would take a lot of work, even with our machines.
I will put a survey at the right side of the blog, please vote! :)

Bee's Confession of a Shopaholic...

Warning: Girly topic!!

Instead of Becki, it's Bee. So welcome to Bee's Confession of a Shopaholic! Ha ha! I have decided that I love fashion so much, that I will post some of the cute clothing I find and you can tell me whether or not you like it as well! :)

I still am getting the hang of this blogging thing, so I am not too sure how it works... so forgive me if I do something wrong! :)

So I love fashion, but there is another secret about it I love.... I love DEALS on fashion!!! :D

Ha ha it always makes you feel more proud of what you bought... and then you can tell everyone the price it's supposed to be and not what it was, to make you sound more fancy and rich! Ha ha ... I would never do that.... okay I would but shh!! (That's little our secret!)

So it will be one of my goals to try and find some cute fashion over the Internet, and tell you the price (the REAL price, I promise) and where I found it so you can have a look as well! :)

Oh and before I forget if you have Facebook, you should check out 'WOMAN'S/MOM'S CLOTHING SWAP AND SHOP.' It is awesome, they have awesome deals! (On most of the stuff! You just have to have the time to look through it all.)

Today's fashion items and websites I found/liked:



  1. http://www.hottopic.com/ On this website, and in there store, they can have some awesome deals! And some pretty cute stuff! I have to admit I am not totally into all the stuff they have but a lot of it can be pretty cute if you just throw your own style into it. So from there I liked this 'Black And Turquoise Reversible Buffalo Check Scarf.' I think it would be cute just for a out on the town look, or even for a night time with a leather jacket or something like that. The price for this scarf is $5.98






  2. Once again on http://www.hottopic.com/
    'Purple Double V Tank Top'
    Price: $6.98
    I think this top is super cute, because it is so simple. I would probably wear it with some skinny jeans, and maybe my leather jacket.
    It comes in purple, which is the color I like best. Yellow, and Turquoise. I love the yellow as well.
    But to me the best part of this top is how it is zebra print! I love zebras! :)




  3. And again http://www.hottopic.com/
    'Multicolored Zebra Print Hand Bag'
    Price: $24.99
    Just because I love bright colors and zebra prints ha ha.



  4. http://www.hottopic.com/
    'Silver Double Braid Headband'
    Price: $8.00
    I think this is cute! I really want to get a headband the goes over your head like this!


  5. Finally a different site ha ha: http://www.look.co.uk/
    'Grey Triple Buckle Boots'
    Brand: Peacocks
    Price: £22.00 (Which is about $45.00 in Canadian, which is not too bad)



That is all I could find right now, because I am about to go do my exercise for the night, but I will see if I can put a poll on my blog site, but if not then you can just comment! :) Have fun shoppers!

Wish me luck!

Warning: Today's post is not for people who dislike the Twilight series!
Today's post is going to be a little different than yesterdays. I am guessing I never told you all that I love the Twilight series, so I am going to now ha ha. I love the Twilight series, and my favourite book of the series is New Moon. It is just so emotional, and great. I am so excited for the movie to come out (November 20th.) Stephenie Meyer is a great writer, and I have just started her book 'The Host'. I really enjoy it so far.
Anyways back on topic, since I love Twilight so much I have a website I go to ALL the time. It is all about the Twilight series, and Stephenie. If you enjoy the series, check it out at www.twilightguide.com/tg there is also Stephenie's website www.stepheniemeyer.com. At the twilight guide site you can enter contests, read about the gossip, and have countdowns, etc. So I have decided I will do this one contest that is on there. It is to win Twilight make-up. Yes I know, they now have Twilight make-up how awesome is that? So wish me luck. I will let you all know if I win or not later on when the contest is closed. But if you love make-up or Twilight, you might as well give it a shot. All you have to do is post a video of yourself doing "Twilight inspired make-up" tutorial. Good luck to you all if you give it a shot.
Hope you check back tomorrow. Or maybe even later today, for it I get inspiration for another topic. Until then take care,

Today I have been listening to Seether.

Hey everyone!





First day of posting on my new blog. What to say and where to start?? Hm.
Well I am XoXoBee. This blog is going to be about anything and everything! :) Just so that way I'll have less of a hard time to come up with anything to talk about ha ha. If anyone has a topic they think I should talk about go ahead and tell me. I am all ears!

So today's topic will be about... dreams.
Warning: this topic may be cheesy!
So we all have dreams... but the thing is, will you go for them? So many people I know, and maybe you know some too, but they all had dreams that they wanted to do but never gave it a chance because people said, "You could never do that," or "Try something realistic." I was and am lucky enough to have parents and friends to support me. I want to become an actress! Don't get me wrong, many people in my life have laughed at me and thought I was unrealistic. But to me, it is my dream and my challenge yet to be completed. I have never gotten the chance to go to a real audition, yet! But I have tried plenty of times over the Internet, but never found anything that I am willing to do, or anything that will be for my age, sex, nationality etc. But it just means it is not the right one for me. Do you believe in signs? Well if not that's OK. But I believe in signs. I think that if I do not get the part in a movie, play, skit etc. that just means it was not meant to be. I will one day find my time to become an actress. I am not a quitter, and personally I think no one should be. Unless they hate what they are doing, that is a different story. But if you have a dream, or even dreams I say go for them!! It is never too late to try! And if it ends up not being what you thought it would be, atleast you can say you tried.

I've thought of many things I wanted to be when I was little. A fireman, a teacher, a singer even. But then when I learned about acting, I got a rush from it that you cannot explain with words. I always had other things I've enjoyed and thought about doing instead, but after a while, I always went back to acting. I still do the things I enjoy, like drawing, painting, writing poetry and stories etc. But it is never as much fun as acting. So that is how I figured out acting was meant for me to do in this life. If you have a dream you would like you share with me I would love to hear about it! :) I will try to write back to you about information on how to succeed your dream, or to talk to you about whatever it is you need an answer to.

The next time someone says to you that you cannot do what you want to do, just ignore them. If you think you can do it, you can do it! I always think, 'hey that person must be wrong because how many of the actors and actresses got told the same thing, but ignored them and went for it anyway. And succeeded!' Plenty I am sure! But the sad thing is, how many of them, listened to the ones who said those things, and ended up giving up. Even though they could have done it and become an actor/actress. So don't give up! It wouldn't be worth it!

I am not trying to sound pushy or like I know everything, I am just saying how I see things... you are welcome to agree or disagree with me. But please if you disagree be nice about it! :) Thank-you! Hope you check back again tomorrow for the next topic!
