remember that time I used to be a blogger. ya, me neither.
for some unknown reason I decided to go back to school. 2 weeks in and I'm wondering what the hell I was thinking.
I guess I was thinking about more dollar bills at the end of all this. you all know how much a dollar makes me holla right!!
long story short I am going back for my CPA designation which is replacing what a CA and CMA used to be. too many initials I know! basically in three ish years I will be a certified accountant and know a bunch more stuff.
anyways, I miss you all my dear internet friends! someday I will get back on here when I think of something intelligent to say :)

tag: sister tag!
I'm sure you have all heard about the sister tag that was once going around youtube. my sister and I were bored the other day and decided to do it for you guys! I got the questions from head to toe so I'm sure they vary between people.
enjoy!
questions:
1. how old are you both?
2. describe each other in one word.
3. do people ever get you mixed up?
4. what is something that annoys you about the other one?
5. what is it like being sisters with a youtube "guru"?
6. do you ever argue?
7. what's the best thing about one another?
8. ditch the dirt.
9. favourite inside joke?
10. favourite memory together?
11. full, half or step sisters?
12. guess each other's favourite singer.
13. who takes longer to get ready?
14. heels or flats?
15. pants or dresse?
16. favourite animal?
17. if your house was burning down and you whole family was going to be okay, what would you save?
18. comedy, horror, or chick flick?
19. blackberry or iphone?
20. favourite movie?
21. what is something weird that you eat?

getting back on track - meaghan me fit
I have been a ridiculous slanker lately. I've been getting to the gym at least once a week but other then that fitness has been MIA in my life. I went for my first 5k Friday and it took 35 minutes. ouch.
my first race was under 29 so that 35 hit hard. I know it's better than nothing but I need to get my shit in gear.
took some advice from tamzilla and wrote out this schedule to help keep myself accountable and get back in shape for the corporate relay I'm signed up for in October.
basically I want to get running 3 times a week + spin class and hit the gym every other day.
intervals is the workout I wrote about at the bottom of this post.
you can change it to focus on whatever muscle you want to improve.
x 500m is just running hard for 500 m, jogging or walking for 500. don't forget to warm up and cool down!

random thursday - tv shows I wish were never cancelled
okay I have totally taken a break from blogging. not exactly sure why but I'm sure once summer ends and life slows down I'll be back at it. for now, I'll still be posting every thursday (even though I missed last week, bad meg).
what the heck is random thursday? only the best link up around brought to you by myself, Lin and Em.

this week we are talking about tv shows we wish were never cancelled.
first and foremost, veronica mars.
I freaking adored this show. I think there are only 3 seasons and I'm pretty sure I watched them all in a month. Kristen Bell is one of my favourite actors and I thought she was awesome in this.
this bad boy is a very close second
I remember watching this last season just being so in love with every character. I was totally going to grow up and move to new york and have 5 best friends who sat around and drink coffee all day.
I got the coffee part right...
this one is more of a "I wish I could watch Lauren Conrad's life everyday..."

I love love love Lauren Conrad and wish she got her one show after the hills. it would be amazing to have watched her get to where she is now.
your turn! tell me what shows you wish were never cancelled and link up below!

#fmsphotoaday
every month chantelle from fat mum slim makes a list of photo prompts to follow for the month.
all you do is take a photo of whatever the prompt is and hashtag it with #fmsphotoaday on instagram.

for july I struggled! I felt like I HAD to have a picture everyday but then a lot of them ended up sucking so for August I'm just going to do what I can!
ps. so sorry for how long this page might take to load!!

no questions asked I need three things that help me relax more then anything...
[1]
a hot steamy bubble bath... something like this...

[2]
a delicious and tall glass of white wine.
[3]
something to watch.
right now I am semi addicted to summer break.

each episode is 3-4 minutes so it's perfect to get caught up on when you only have a short amount of time.

BEACHES BEACHES BEACHES!!!
I live on a tiny Island surrounded by water so of course I love the beach!
I'm not a huge beach bum who could lay there all day everyday but I definitely try to get there every beautiful weekend.
it's just so relaxing and calm and pretty.
this isn't even a decent picture and it's still beautiful!
and can you really argue with this sunset?
which you would choose, beaches, rustic cabins or cities?

food bit - chocolate chip banana muffins
if you follow me on instagram you know I made the most delicious chocolate banana muffins the other evening.
I followed the recipe my mom always used and they turned out amazing. I made them in mini muffin trays so I would have a ton to take to work. this recipe made 4+ dozen mini's and 6 regular sized ones.
ingredients:
dry:
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup chocolate chips (or nuts!)
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
wet:
3 eggs
3/4 cup oil
2 cups mashed bananas
directions:
preheat the oven to 350.
mix the dry ingredients in one bowl, the wet in another. once they are all mixed, add the dry to the wet. use the muffin method and only mix until the ingredients are incorporated. do NOT over mix!
nobody like a hard dry muff amiright?

tip:
ever bake a banana loaf and find the sides are browning perfectly and the middle looks raw?
take a sheet of tin foil, cut out a rectangle (the size of the raw part of the loaf), cover with the tin foil and throw back in the oven so that everything is covered except the raw part.
no clue how this works but that's a tip from my momma and it works!

this week's topic...

too see my full list, go here.
I'm going to make this just my summer bucket list so it's a bit shorter.
[1]
no more sunburns.
you would think by now I would learn to put sunscreen on but at least once a year I get burnt. this year it was the worst one yet. this right here is 8 days old. it's been 13 now and it's still pretty pink!
[2]
get back into running.
I checked my runkeeper app last week and it's sadly been since June 17th since I've last gotten out. I've been to a few spin classes since then but that's about it. really need to get back into it!
[3]
follow fat mum slim's photo a day for July & August.
I've been doing pretty good for July!
[4]
start running to the beach in the evenings.
I clocked how far away the nearest beach in yesterday and it's 3.1km. what better way to spend the evenings then going for a run then jumping in the ocean!?
[5]
STAY ON BUDGET!
how many times can I honestly say this...
okay tell me 5 things from your bucket list and link up below!

beat the heat blog swap reveal!
the fabulous Linny and I hosted a blog swap awhile ago and now it's reveal time!!
I've never hosted a swap before so that made this one extra fun. and I paired myself up with the awesome Lauren from Simply Southern. Simply Lauren. who by the way has the cutest banner ever!
check out the stuff I got, this girl rocked the swap!!
I would like to apologize for the terrible quality iphone pictures.
I am IN LOVE with the card! I was having a shitty day when I picked up this package and when this is the first thing I pull out, it made my day ten times better!
so many goodies!!!
considering I got sunburnt last weekend, this after sun cream + the moisturizer was perfect!
love homemade popcicles. and it came with a ton of recipes so it doesn't get much better then that.
I threw some blueberries in a pot, sprinkled some sugar on top and simmered it for a little while. they turned out delicious!
ugh I cannot tell you how obsessed I am with this!! and it comes with a strap that you put around the back of your head so you can pull it up on your forehead if you have a headache. love it!
thank you thank you so much Lauren! I love everything and am so happy we were paired together!
if you have a minute make sure to go check out Lauren's blog, you'll love it!

random thursday - DIY project
moving on! this week we want you to show us a...

I haven't done any DIY projects in forever so I'm going to dip into my DIY page and show you my three faves!
first, the classic scarf organizer. I lived in tiny apartments with tiny closets for years so I needed something that worked! this did!

I switched out the plastic hanger for a wooden one and it was perfect! check out the original post here.
another classic but my favourite thing I've made.

this used to hang in my kitchen and I always got a million compliments on it. would love to make another! can't wait to dig through my home decor in storage (we didn't take anything like that to our current house) and put it back up.
original post.
lastly, this guy.

ADORE this tank top! it's faded now but I still rock it paired with a pair of light purple shorts. such an easy thing to do and I really think tye dye is underrated!
original post here.
your turn! show me your DIY project and link up below!

random rambling
sooo blog everyday in June eh? kind of a fail? yup I think so. I have had zero inspiration lately! not a fan of blogging everyday when I have to, too much pressure and the posts just turn out shitty.
and I missed random thursday this week!! first time in FOREVER! I might write it up tomorrow, not that I have many summer plans but I still want to link up with everyone.
Luke's brother & friends were home all this week so we basically just laid on the beach, drank, visited and hung out the whole week. really sad to see them go but I actually can't wait to get back into a routine. I know I will be regretting saying that come Monday morning when I have to get up for work. I need to get back into eating three times a day, hitting up the gym at lunch, and going to bed before the next day starts.
so far I have gained weight since starting this diet bet too with Tamara so I need to get on top of that! I had full intentions to get out running today (I haven't been out since June 17th!!!) but yesterday I got burnt to a crisp and could hardly move today. so that was out! see how I feel tomorrow, I want to win that mulah!!
alright, I need to go complain about my sun burn a bit more and get caught up on pretty little liars.
