First, press play. Read on and be easy.
1. Upon waking up, start thinking about nothing but the voices of the following individuals. This is pretty middle school to do, and you shouldn't tell anyone you do this, but it's not like you're thinking about Shane West's hot bod or anyone with the name Shane. You're thinking about:
a. Loggy b. Cal
c. Josh Bowman
and they way they laugh. I guarantee they'll make you smile.
2. Make tea when you go downstairs and put it on ice. Even pour it into a tumbler you can take with you out the door. This is a recent phase of mine because it gives me a refreshing boost like coffee does, without the jittery crash.
Plus, flavors like "coconut mango" or "pomegranate raspberry" are more appealing to me right now than ones like "cozy caramel apple." The brand Stash is one of my current favorites and SO CHEAP.
3. Wash your face with cold water and rub this moisturizer into your cheeks. I usually don't have a particular favorite when it comes to daily moisturizers, but I just bought a second bottle of this because I loved everything about it (SPF 30 guys) and it lasted like, my entire spring semester. It smells like sun and leaves your face with that dewy glow so you can pretend you have Katniss Everdeen skin. Because looking like you spent 2 weeks surviving in the woods is actually really sexy. Ask Gale.
He'll tell ya.
4. Stop expecting to wake up to "Good morning baby girl" texts from anyone but your mom.
Or if it's from my mom: "GMBBG" (Good morning best baby girl) ...Nice
5. Wear cute underwear and sunglasses. Nothing says "I'm a badass" like this winning combo. One of which no one besides you will know about.
Hopefully you will have a nice Monday morning that will turn into a nice Monday afternoon and maybe you'll even get out of work early enough to catch the sun set.
But if not, rinse, repeat, and try again tomorrow morning.
She'll be right up with you again on Tuesday.
That's the best part about mornings. They wont give up on you.
