3/31/2013

We are now 3 months into the year 2013. How are you doing with your goals?! Get out your Goal Sheets and look them over. Here's mine!
Every goal that I have completed is in red, and all the goals that I'm on track for (like drink 5 cups of water a day), are in orange.
Financial Goals
1. Make $13,000
2. Save $2,000 for California
3. Save $500 for Retirement
4. Save $700 for my Wedding

Career Goals
1. Model
2. 10,000 pageviews in one month
3. Get my band started again

4. Find a place to sell my Crafts

Learning/Development Goals
1. Study Chinese 3 times a week
2. Be able to do a split
Fun Goals
1. Go on a Cruise to the Bahamas
2. Go to China or India
3. Go to Abbey Road

4. See my brother's band play twice
Health Goals
1. Do Yoga 3 times a week
2. Drink 5 cups of water a day
3. Eat 1 tbs of coconut oil a day
4. Eat healthier, homemade food
5. Drink Apple Cider Vinegar everyday
6. Eat vitamins every day

Relationship Goals
1. Stay just as happy with my boyfriend as we are now

Contribution Goals
1. Give $456 to Compassion
2. Buy jewelry from Eden

As you can see, I've edited a couple of my goals again. But thats ok, because things are always changing, and sometimes you need to make small adjustments. So check over your goals again, and if you need to make any adjustments, now is the time to do that.

Take a look at all your goals, and make sure that you're on track for them. For example; Some of my goals are, Drink 5 cups of water a day, eat my vitamins every day, and do yoga 3 times a week. I am on track for all these goals, because (for the most part) I have been doing them all. My goal, study Chinese 3 times a week, I have not been doing faithfully, so I know that I need to get more on track for that (being in China for over a month will definitely help!)! One of my financial goals is to make $13,000 this year. Breaking that down into months, I need to make $1,083 a month. So for January-March, I should have made $3,249. I have made a little over $2,000 so far, so I am not on track for my goal yet. I will be in China for the next couple months, and during that time I will not be making money, so when I get back home, I will definitely need to re-adjust my monthly money needed goal. 
So go and make sure you're on track for all your goals! If you're not, simply make adjustments, and get back on track! (:

Well, I JUST got an Instagram! About time I know! The reason it has taken me this long, is because I refused to give up my flip phone (and $24 a month phone bill) for a smart phone. Well, I still haven't given up my flip phone (it's only $24 a month! Plus I looove my flip phone!), but i DID steal my boyfriend's old I-Phone, and I am now using that only for the camera, and when I have Wi-Fi, instagram and facebook! I am very excited about this!
So be sure to follow me @china_barbie_
I have a bunch of pictures of me, me and the boyfriend, the boyfriend, and our boxer pups! So it's obviously adorable pictures!:P

Support Small Businesses; Nick LaPinta

3/25/2013

 
As you all know, I like writing posts about artists, photographers, and small businesses, that I think are just pure awesomeness, and deserve to be supported! So today, you are all in for a special treat: I am writing an article about none other than my wonderfully amazing boyfriend, Nick LaPinta!
Nick LaPinta
Not only is Mr. LaPinta an insanely sexy, caring, sweet, and funny, (oh I'm sorry, am I rambling?) man, he is also an amazingly talented tattoo artist.
Nick LaPinta Tattoos
Nick has been tattooing for four years now. He started as an apprentice at Artistic Expressions, and is now a full-time artist at Studio What? Studio What? is a wonderful little shop in the village of Berlin, Ohio, in the heart of Amish Country.
Here is some of Nick's work:

I told you he's amazing! If you are even considering getting work done, check him out right now! And check out Studio What? There are plenty more pictures of tattoos he's done right here.

Here's some drawings he's done! These are all original, free hand drawings. If you go to his facebook right now, he will cut you a great deal on any of these drawings (including the money on the brain drawing above)!

    I'm Jessica!

    I've traveled all over the world, but Ohio is where I call home. I'm a lifestyle & travel blogger, and author. I love setting goals, reading, and snuggling up with my fur babies. I can usually be found at my local thrift store, or in the hammock in my backyard.
