Smart, Pretty & Awkward

How to be Smarter: Beware the difference between comfortable and complacent in a relationship. Comfortable means you can freak out about something small and not worry he will dump you; complacent means that you don’t even bother dressing up for dates anymore. The trick is to be comfortable without being complacent.

How to be Prettier: I really, really like chocolate and will not give it up. I am neutral about yogurt, but it is so good for you. So I trick myself into eating yogurt by putting chocolate bits in it. Layer chocolate bits (the Nestle semi-sweet morsel kind) with vanilla yogurt and it is just like a sundae.

How to be (less) Awkward: Sometimes turning 20 can be a little sad, because you still have another year to go before you are legal. But I think a really cute idea for turning 20 is to have a Roaring 20′s theme party.

    Any suggestions for the also-sad-but-in-a-different-way 23?

    I also wanted to say that SP&A has been really amazing lately :)

    re: chocolate. try nutella and bananas. or melted chocolate chips and banana. or just the melted chocolate chips – there’s antioxidants in them, and just a handful gives you the choc-fix that’s oh-so-needed every now and then. a perfect pairing is a nice glass of red wine (more antioxidants – yea!)

    Nutella + anything = perfection.

    Oh I wish this post came earlier because I’m turning 20 and was having the hardest time thinking of a theme. How did I not think of roaring 20s before?!

    I’d like to think this was dedicated to me, since today is my 20th birthday!! Too bad i didn’t throw myself a party, simply cuz i thought it was awkward. lol

    How to be less awkward: don’t insult people older than 21 by insinuating that turning 20 is already sad. :(
