I Survived #BlogHer12!

So, I survived #BlogHer12, the biggest conference for women (and some men) bloggers in my opinion. The conference that I looked forward to attending ever since I started blogging over 2 years ago. This year, 4500 attendees were at the Hilton NYC where there were sessions to better ourselves, chances to meet and connect with brand reps, and parties to relax and get to know others. It all passed in a blur! Would you believe I only got 7 hours of sleep total over 3 days?! I attended both Healthminder Day and BlogHer. I started off Healthminder Day with the US Army Bootcamp which wrecked havoc on my core. I was feeling the effects the day after and call me weird, but I loved the burn! Now, if only I can remember all of the exercises we did, I'd have a six pack by the end of this summer! I also had my first mimosa that day at the #BrandsWeLove event. Mmm...good food, people, and brands! You really can't beat that.

Keeping my #tech going at #Conferences -#NewTrent #Review

Did I ever announce that I was going to #BlogHer12? Or did life just get too busy? LOL, anyways, with a big conference like BlogHer, I was worried about my tech gadgets! The last conference I went to, I juggled my laptop, my iPad, my iPhone, and a point and shoot camera. I had everything just in case the battery died on one of them. Well, even after charging everything during the night, something would still inevitably run out of batteries the next day. Then, there was also the problem of my iPad2. I love it but it's a little hard to type on the screen. I can do it but it's a lot slower than if I was on a regular sized keyboard. I decided to do something about it for BlogHer. After all, it is one of the biggest conferences for women bloggers out there!

My #LocksofLove...Gone for a good cause

It's been awhile since I cut my hair...a year probably. I get so busy with my life that I don't get a chance to book an appointment and keep it. So I make it a habit to get an appointment when I go visit family to chop my hair off. By now, you're thinking, we all cut our hair, what's so special about this? Why are you even telling us? I'm getting there, kay?
