ROLO & Stanford alumni night Blazers Game

Cheering.  Blazers.  PDX fun. ROLO.

Last night was Stanford Alumni night at the Blazers game in Portland, OR.  My friend Marie and I headed to the game, after some parking issues we made it to the game on time, but missed the pre-game happy hour.  So we got some delicious and huge sandwiches from Bridgetown something (I would recommend!)... and watched the game.  It was tons-o-fun per usual and Marie and I both agree MO WILLIAMS is one of our favorite players.  We want to figure out how we can go to an alumni event for some school and meet him!  Any tips, let me know!  Oh, and I almost forgot we won!  YAY.

My other fave is Robin Lopez, mostly because he went to Stanford too and let's keep it real, he has awesome hair.  After the game, we had a very PR heavy Q&A session with Robin.  He was super nice and awesome.  But we only got a group photo... that should be coming at some point.  No individual photos, better luck next time?  Maybe I will just bump into him at Powells?  Apparently, there is a video on the Blazers site you can check out with a tour of Powells.

Here is a photo of my new red MAC Rhianna Viva Glam lip look!  It was perfect for the game and a blog post with my review of the lipstick and lip gloss will be coming soon.

XOXO honeybees!

Chaotic Goddess Swaps: 12 Days of Christmas

My first official blogger swap: the 12 days of Christmas.  Who doesn't love a bunch of little presents, 12 to be exact?  (Certainly this girl loves a little gift now and then!) I was paired with Rambunctious Rose, a fabulous gal in Texas.  Please check out her blog and her post about our swap too!

I was floored by my awesome little Christmas presents.  Not only was it festive and creative, the items were useful and fun!  Thanks Rambunctious Rose.

If you are interested in signing up for feature swaps, go here!  I would highly recommend it.  The swap was well-organized and a great way to meet another blogger.

Saving Mr. Banks is a GREAT movie

Some things Disney just does right and the movie Saving Mr. Banks is definitely one of them.  This movie is everything I hoped for and more.  It was inspirational.  It was funny and sad and filled with superb actors like Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson.  It was much more than a couple hours of entertainment.  It was the kind of movie that makes you think in a good way.

By the way, did you know that Walt Disney was from Missouri?  Maybe I did at some point, but I had forgotten until I watched Saving Mr. Banks.  I spent a number of years in Missouri during college and it seemed fitting that Walt Disney was from Missouri.  Some really great people seem to hail from the Midwest.  I think I'm going to read a biography on Walt Disney.  I read that Walt Disney also worked in Journalism.  I majored in Journalism myself and I think I might learn a bit from Walt Disney.  I'll let you know what I end up reading about the great Walt Disney.

For now, let's focus on some Walt Disney quotes.  We can always use a bit of inspiration, especially as 2013 comes to an end.

Win Some, Lose Some - Carrie Diaries

Carrie Dairies is back on Fridays on the CW.  I'm hoping this is not a bad sign.  A Friday night time slot seems to be the kiss of death for so many shows and I quite enjoy this one.  As always, it's super easy to catch up online too.  This show is pretty much exactly what I thought NYC would be like.  That is until I actually lived there for a summer and it was pretty much the most unglamorous thing ever.  I much prefer The Carrie Diaries version of NYC then the actual sweaty, expensive and grimy real life version.  The Carrie Diaries is your perfect saucy high school soap opera.  And this particular episode was a great start to the new season!

How do you like me now? - Hart of Dixie

Bluebell took a poll about Zoe's new beau Joel... and it's not looking good!  Only 13% of the townsfolk think Zoe and Joel belong together.  So Zoe sets out to make Joel popular ASAP.  (Can I tell you how much I love Zoe and Lavon as besties?)  A good plan, except remember how long it took for the town to warm up to Zoe?  And Zoe is anything but patient.  So she concocts a plan to get the town's approval through the vote of leadership, also known as the town's Pastor.  Do you want really impresses me?  How Zoe can make anything into such a disaster, but she always looks good while doing it and it works out in the end?  Umm, why doesn't this happen to me?  Is it because I need to concoct more crazy plans?  Random side note, but something to consider for us all to consider.  Do we make enough crazy plans?
