Yummy bagel!

Today I thought I would make a food type blog post. What I'm going to make is a bagel with Nutella and banana. It is pretty self explanatory on how to make it, but if you want to see how I do it then keep reading!

Step 1)
- First thing I do is choose the bagel I want. I went for these Cinnamon raisin bagel because they are my favorite.

**Note: that these aren't anything special bagel just good old fashion ones and you can use any type of bagel you wish.

Step 2)
- Set your toaster to whatever temperature you like and put them in. I personal don't like the pre-set bagel setting so I just turn the dial to just above the #2 setting. Doing this, on my toaster, leaves it warm and just a little firm, not to crunchy or crispy.

Step 3)
- While the bagel is toasting, I like to go and get my spread that I'm going to be putting on the bagel. I have chosen Nutella because....its Nutella and it's flipping AMAZING! :P

Step 4)
- Once they have toasted just take them out and put them on a plate. (and yea I know I'm using a Pocahontas plate, but I like to use this plate because its not our nice plates so if I drop it, it won't brake, which has happened before.)

Step 5) 
- Don't let the bagel cool down to much because I find that when you put Nutella on a warm bagel it spreads easier and kind of melts into it just a bit.

Step 6)
- I don't always do this step, mainly because we usually don't have bananas in our house, but I bought some the other day and thought i'd add them to the bagel. All you need to do is cut them up and add them on-top on the Nutella.

Step 7)
- Just put the bananas on the bagel, like you see in the picture.

**Note: If you want to make your bagel to look a bit more fancy and dressed up (or you are craving lots of Nutella like I was) you can add a bit of it on top of the bananas.













And there you go! Just a very nice and easy way to make a Nutella and banana bagel. I usually have this as an after school snack, but since its summer i'll have this for really any meal/snack.

---I hope you enjoyed this little food post, Also don't be afraid to leave a comment if you tried it and tell me if you liked it or what changes you would make :)

Summer Bucket List...?

Okay so I saw a video on YouTube by Alfie Deyes about 25 things to do in the summer. I thought it was a really fun idea so I decided to make a list of my own. Now I have never made a proper "Summer Bucket List" or even a "Bucket List" for that matter, but I gave it a shot and I think it turned out pretty good in my opinion.

I also want to take a picture of each thing when I've done it and post it one here.

• 1) Spend a night in a tent

-now it might sound cheesy and you may be thinking everyone has done it, but your wrong, I actually haven't spent a full night in a tent in my life.

• 2) Stay up all night and watch the sun rise

• 3) Tell scary stories by the camp fire

• 4) Go skinny dipping

-this is a little risqué but I have always wanted to do it so why not this summer!

• 5) Stan in the rain

• 6) Go mudding

-I know I'm going to do this one because me and my cousin already have it planned :P

• 7) Have a picnic 

• 8) Star gaze

• 9) Kiss someone under the stars

-I don't know if i'll take a picture of this one and post it ;p

• 10) Have a water fight

• 11) Do something I would never do

-this one is going to be a bit harder cause there are so many things I usually wouldn't do, but when find something i'll post it for sure!

• 12) Watch the sunset on a beach

-I do this almost every summer at my grandparents lake but its one of my favorite things to do

• 13) last but no least... Spend a whole day watching old/classic disney movies

-another easy one because who doesn't love disney movies

So that is it...this is going to be challenging but I really want to do it because some of these things are kind of out of my comfort zone and Im trying to challenge myself to do more.

Guy Outfit of The Day

Okay so I wanted to make a different kind of post today and came up with the idea of a dude Outfit of The Day (#DOOTD) I haven't seen many of these especially for just a casual day and not a fancy night out with a suit etc. So this is just a everyday look I wear for summer/warmer weather.

This shirt is from American Eagle. It's one of those baseball style shirt with 3/4 length, neon yellow, sleeves and a grey middle section.


Cost: Around $20

These are Volcom, tan colored, shorts. They fit nicely and are good for casual and or fancy occasions.


Cost: Around $30

Another picture of my shorts in maybe a better setting. I also use the brown, leather, american eagle belt. This is my favorite belt EVER! i've had it for about 2 years now and it hasn't worn out as much as I thought it would.


Belt Cost: $25

This is a Diesel watch with a brown leather strap and with a white face and black head (sorry that was a bad description but you get the idea).


Cost: This actually was a steal, it was around $200 and we got it for $75!!

I was wearing Toms. They are a navy blue color with a little bit of a faded affect. Toms are cool because, if you don't know already, when you buy a pair they give a pair to someone in need and how can you not support that. Plus there very light and easy to walk in.


Cost: $35

This is what it looks like all on and put together. I know its bad quality but I was taking these pictures with my macbook because I don thane a good high-quality camera.


Whole outfit cost: Around $185









*Disclaimer*
-This is not me bragging about the stuff I have if you thought that. This stuff was bought over a long period of time and I've have this stuff for a very long time.

Short and Sweat!

Just a reminder that society puts a lot of pressure on how people should act and be but remember, just be yourself and don't let anyone else's judgements hurt you or make you want to change.

Fit In or Stand Out?

One thing that i have learned over the past couple years is to BE YOURSELF! i know it sounds super cheesy and everyone says it, but there is a reason why everyone says it because IT IS TRUE! when i started my high school years i was so scared to be different and to be judged, i wanted to be normal and fit in and have people like me. I ended up not having very many friends and the people i was friends with weren’t what i was looking for in friends.

At the start of my grade 10 year i wanted to make a change….so i did. i left my old friends and started to hangout with other people! this was very hard to do because everyone already found their group of friends in grade 9.

So seeing how everyone else was acting and dressing i tried to be like them and guess what?! i became friends with them. OMG i got what i wanted right?!?! WRONG! i was just there, i wasn’t the person people liked to talk too, i was always the "back-up" person people would go to if nobody else was around! It made me really sad and depressed and i became even more self conscious about myself and how i was acting because i wondered WHY people weren’t talking to me. i mean i was acting and dressing like everyone and couldn’t understand why nobody really liked me or invited me to hangout… :(

In the start of grade 11 i still WASNT happy! :( i wasn’t happy with who i was and how people treated me so i finally said F*CK IT! and started acting how i wanted too. I started not giving a shit about what other people thought about my hair, clothing etc. I wasn’t trying to please people or be friends with everyone.

So I started sharing my opinion in conversation and not just agreeing with everyone else’s, like i did all my life. i started to become more welcome and people actually started talking to me first and inviting me to hangout. (Not saying that i get invited to a lot of things because i don’t) but I’m still changing and becoming ME!

And now we get to the present time more than half way through grade 11 and i have more friends than i had at the start of high school, even at the start of grade 10, and the BIGGEST thing is that I’m HAPPY with who i am and who my friends are! they accept me for who i am! (I’m not saying that I’m totally popular and have invites all the time cause, again, i DONT.) i still kind of have anxiety and I’m socially awkward with people, but I’m getting better and have started working on that part of my life!

I guess the main point I’m trying to get across is that don’t be afraid to BE YOURSELF! don’t care what other people think (especially in high school cause its only 4 years of your life) Don’t get caught up in trying to fit in cause you WONT BE HAPPY! I’m much happier than I’ve been in a very, very long time and its all because I finally MADE a CHOICE! to be HAPPY!

First post (real original title eh!)

Alrighty here goes it! I'm very new to blogging so I don't really know how it all works, but I want to give it a try! I started a tumblr about a year ago but really got into it in these last 6 or so months. I would love to make pictures and things you do on tumblr but one thing that I started to do was write stories; not just your average "book story" with characters, no, stories about personal things that I never really told anyone, and how things have affected me. Once I started writing these (bare in mind I've only written three) I enjoyed writing them. Its almost as if its a way to vent and get things off my chest. (or in other words a "diary" but since I'm a dude ill call it a journal :P) 

Since I have really enjoyed making these post and realized that tumblr may not be the best place to write paragraphs on paragraphs of personal stuff, I got this idea! to make a blog about things because really, blogs meant to be wordy and lengthly, in a sense. 

I will be re-posting the ones I did on my tumblr soon, but I thought this would be a good introduction to what I would like to do and see how people like them!

Also I would like to say that I don't plan on just posting those stories, I would like to post anything really, from personal stories to reviews of things to my travel etc. all those I like to do and would love to share it with people.
