Here's a tip for next year. If you're going to do your Christmas shopping at BBW do it EARLY cuz we run out of stuff so fast. And it gets pretty old telling people ( Read more... )

So California was pretty much amazing. I don't think I could ever live there...it's way too crowded and L.A. is kinda dirty. Plus it's like insanely expensive to live out there. But it was a fun place to vacation and I'd go back some day definitely ( Read more... )
