My July Playlist!


Is July really over?  It was a very eventful month.  Firstly I turned 27 which I still can't believe.  I'm getting old!!  I still feel young though.  I also hurt my knee while showering.  I'm not sure what happened I just felt a snap and then I couldn't move it.  It's getting better though.  I'm still obsessed with June's playlist so check that out.  I discovered so much new music this month.  I also included a throwback as well.  What are you listening to?


1. All In My Head (Flex) by Fifth Harmony feat. Fetty Wap
Favorite lyric: Curtains like waves closing in all around us Dimming the lights just so that they don't blind us So tongue-in-cheek when we're laying on roses But you're touching my skin, and you're leaving me hopeless

2. Say My Name by Destiny's Child
Favorite lyric: I know you say that I am assuming things Something's going down, that's the way it seems Shouldn't be no reason why you're acting strange If nobody's holding you back from me 'Cause I know how you usually do Where you're saying everything to me times two Why can't you just tell the truth If somebody's there, then tell me who

3. Make Me by Britney Spears feat. G-Eazy
Favorite lyric: I just want you to make me move Like it ain't a choice for you, like you got a job to do
Just want you to raise my roof Something sensational (oh yeah) And make me oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh And make me oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh


4. Don't Mind by Kent Jones
Favorite lyric: She telling me this And telling me that You said once you take me with you, I'll never go back Now I got a lesson that I want to teach I'mma show you that where you from don't matter to me She said, "Hola. ¿Cómo estás?" She said, "Konnichiwa." She said, "Pardon my French," I said, "Bonjour, Madame." Then she said, "Sak pase," and I said, "N'ap boule." No matter where I go, you know I love 'em all She said, "Hola. ¿Como estás?" She said, "Konnichiwa." She said, "Pardon my French," I said, "Bonjour, Madame." Then she said, "Sak pase," and I said, "N'ap boule." No matter where I go you know I love them all

5. Slow Motion by Matt Wertz
Favorite lyric: Every minute wanna getcha, getcha closer Soak up every second trying to get to know ya Lets just take our time We can't hit rewind World's spinning, don't miss another moment Every kiss on your lips has got me hoping We just take our time Slow Motion

6. Into You by Ariana Grande
Favorite lyric: So, baby, come light me up, and maybe I'll let you on it A little bit dangerous, but, baby, that's how I want it A little less conversation and a little more "touch my body" 'Cause I'm so into you, into you, into you Got everyone watchin' us, so, baby, let's keep it secret A little bit scandalous, but, baby, don't let them see it A little less conversation and a little more "touch my body" 'Cause I'm so into you, into you, into you, oh yeah

7. Cheap Thrills by Sia
Favorite lyric: Baby I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight (I love cheap thrills!) Baby I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight (I love cheap thrills!) But I don't need no money As long as I can feel the beat I don't need no money As long as I keep dancing

8. Cold Water by Major Lazer feat. Justin Bieber
Favorite lyric: And if you feel you're sinking, I will jump right over into cold, cold water for you And although time may take us into different places I will still be patient with you And I hope you know
I won't let go I'll be your lifeline tonight I won't let go I'll be your lifeline tonight


9. Tears by Clean Bandit feat. Louisa Johnson
Favorite lyric: Tears on the ground, tears on my pillow You won't bring me down Tears on the ground, rain at my window The pain washes out Tears on the ground, rain at my window The pain washes out And I'll get over you Oh yeah, I'll get over you

10. F*** Apologies by JoJo feat. Whiz Khalifa
Favorite lyric: And honestly I was just about to pick up the phone And then I realized that I didn't do nothing wrong You would even tell two lies to prove that you were right Usually I'd go on and take the blame but not this time, not this time What you want from me? I would say I'm sorry if I really meant it F*** apologies I would say I'm sorry if I really meant it I'm not perfect, I got pride That's not what it is this time So f*** apologies I would say I'm sorry if I really meant it If I, if I, if I really meant it

It's been FOREVER since I've shared an obsession!  I promise I'll be back to normal.  My weekly obsession is........Best Fiends!!!  I've seen pretty much everybody on YouTube promoting this game.  After hearing about it SO much I decided to check it out.  I'm OBSESSED!!!!!!!!!!  I play it for at least 2 hours every day.  Basically you have different bugs that are certain colors.  Also each bug has a special quality.  You match the colors to attack the slugs.  It's really hard to explain but trust me it's addicting.  Go check it out!  What are you guys loving?  Let me know!!

Can you believe tomorrow is the 4th of July?  I'm super excited to spend time with my family and watch fireworks.  I wanted to do a patriotic dessert so I headed to Pinterest!  I found a really easy Red, White, and Blue Poke Cake.  You may also know it as jello cake.  They are so good and you can make a ton of different flavors.  If you make this tweet me so I can see your cakes!  Have an AMAZING 4th!!!!!!!!!!!!



Ingredients:
1 box of white cake mix (plus ingredients on the box)
1 package of red jello
1 package of blue jello
1 tub of Cool Whip
Sprinkles or berries


Directions:
1.  Prepare and bake cake in 9X13 pan using directions on the box.
2.  Let cake cool for 15 minutes.  Use a fork and poke holes all over the cake in rows.  You should end up with about 15 rows.
3.  Mix red jello with 3/4 cup of boiling water until dissolved.  Add 1/2 cup of cold water and pour into every other row of holes.
4.  Repeat with the blue jello.  Cover your cake and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
5.  Spread the Cool Whip on top.  Add sprinkles or berries for decoration.
