Hi everyone and welcome to this week’s blog post! Today, I’m trying out a blog trend that I’ve seen going around called 12 Things! Basically, I just talk about 12 different things going on in my life so I can share a little more about myself with all of you. Let’s get started!
- I’m graduating from James Madison University in three weeks! College has flown by and I can’t believe I’m so close to being done. I’m planning on doing a blog post in a few weeks talking about my overall experience at JMU so, if you’re interested in that, keep an eye out!
- Christmas is in LESS THAN A MONTH! So far, I’ve put up one holiday gift guide and my second one is coming next Tuesday. Get excited because I know I am!
- I’m going on a post-graduation trip to a very special city! I’m not going to say where because I’ll be doing a travel post all about it but follow me on Instagram (@allisantmyer) to get a few sneak peeks as to where I’m headed.
- My favorite holiday movie is Elf and I can’t wait for it to start playing on TV! I’ve already been watching Hallmark Christmas movies and I can’t wait for the rest of the holiday movies to hit the TV closer to the end of December.
- Speaking of movies, I saw Thor and Justice League over Thanksgiving break and they were awesome! I really loved Thor but I thought Justice League could’ve been a little better. If you went and saw them, let me know what you thought in the comments below!
6. Have you heard of the app Trivia Crack? It’s so fun! You answer trivia questions from different categories and you can play against other people and compete. You can choose to play against random opponents or people you know so my boyfriend and I play against each other all the time!
7. Did you read my blog post about the online shop called thredUP? If you use the code WONDERLAND at checkout, you can get 50% your entire order! Go go go! It’s good for the whole month of November so there are still a few days left to do some shopping.
8. The weather has been so amazing in Maryland and Virginia lately! It’s been a bit chilly so I get to wear my sweaters and boots but it’s not so freezing that it’s hard to be outside. It’s so nice, especially for walking to and from class at school!
9. I don’t know about you but I am a crazy Bachelor/Bachelorette fan. I watch every season and I can’t wait for this season to start in January! The Bachelor this time around is Arie, who is from Emily Maynard’s season, and it was a complete shock to me that they chose him. We’ll see how it goes!
10. My planner is finished in December so I’m on the hunt for a new one. Anyone have any suggestions?
11. I just came across AirStream travel trailers and I want one so badly. I’ve been eyeing the Flying Cloud but it’s so expensive! Does anyone have one or can recommend another brand that’s a little bit more affordable for a college grad that wants to go on a few road trips?
12. My favorite holiday dish is sweet potato casserole! My mom has been making it for as long as I remember and I hope she never stops. It’s so yummy and we always have leftovers so I get to enjoy it for days and days after she makes it.
That’s all for today’s post! Thank you so much for reading and be sure to come back next week for my holiday gift guides of the season. Have a wonderful week!
