2013 Launch!

So far I have piddled with this blog. I have such good intentions for kicking this thing off and sticking with it. I'm really excited about it! But I can't seem to get ahead right now. So I have decided that January 1, 2013 will be my official launch of Geek Glitter. I haven't really promoted myself yet or put it out there that this blog exists, so I don't think many people are even reading what I'm writing at the moment. I have taken on a holiday job at the same company I used to work for. Between that and the holidays, I just haven't been able...

Blog Update!

I have finally finished copying the few specific posts over from my old blog. It wasn't much, maybe ten of them. 5 of them were product reviews that I have done in the last couple months. I am starting new, but I didn't think I should have to completely forget about those. The rest had to do with my 101 challenge. Speaking of, I need to jump on that! A year has already passed and I have only checked off very few things. Now I can get to what I intended this blog to be. As I'm just getting started, I can't guarantee that I'll post every day, or...

101 CHALLENGE {12. cut my hair short}

About a week ago I got my hair cut. Normally, not a big deal. Except this time I got 12 inches chopped off! Kind of a big deal. (yes, I donated it!) For the past, uh forever, I've had really bad headaches. My mom insisted if I cut my hair it would help. I always thought since my hair is so thin and fine that it wouldn't. Well it's been over a week and I haven't had one headache. I hate admitting my mother was right! I figured I'd show a little before...
