Creepin’ on my Phone + Stella & Dot

We all know that when we first visit someone’s blog we usually click the “About Me” button. We want to know about this person. When we know about this person we have a better understanding of their personality, their goals, their blog, their life, etc. And sometimes we’re just straight up nosy. I know I am. I like to know things and I like to know about other people. I like to “creep” on people…in a normal way, not a stalker way hahah! SO, that being said I thought i’d let ya creep on my most prized and personal possession. My phone!

When I thought about this it was obviously 11:10 yesterday morning, so I went and found my phone wherever it was hiding and took some screenshots. I’m not very good about having  my phone with me sometimes, but usually there’s a text from someone at work asking to pick up a shift…#waitressprobs

And I unlock my phone and this is my home screen. These are the apps that I use most. This is what I love about the iPhone (yes I still have the 4 and am on 3G, but i’m getting a new one soon!) is that you can personalize you apps to how you want it.

My next page are the apps that I use, but not all the time. I like this one because I can see my pictures from Orange Beach this summer. Miss those early beach mornings.

And because I love taking pictures, i’m showing you my camera roll. These are the latest pictures I have. Most of the time I delete my pictures after I put them on my computer because this darn 8G iPhone 4 doesn’t have a lot of space to hold pictures.

Then, of course i’ve got all my social media apps next to each other. You can follow me on Twitter @mollymiddleton

 

But i’m usually checking my Instagram when I get into my phone. Follow me! @mollymiddleton01

And the wonderful Pinterest. I like using it on my computer more than my phone because I can usually see more things at one time, however sometimes there are just days class is stretching out too long and you’ve got to get on Pinterest to make the time go faster.

Pandora! Obviously I listen to multiple kinds of music. Sometimes instead of my iPod I take my phone for Pandora on my runs. Sometimes I turn on Pandora to study. Sometimes I turn on Pandora for some noise. Sometimes I turn on Pandora to jam in the car. I love this FREE app.

Andddddd of course AtBat is on my phone. This is where I keep up with my Red Sox season after season to see News, Standings, Scores, etc. I love the Red Sox and I love baseball.

The Bible app is on my phone. Sometimes when i’m out and about or at school and need some motivation or inspiration i’ll open up my Bible app and look at my verse of the day or read along with the series i’m currently in. But most of the time i’m usually using my Kids’ Bible (of which I absolutely LOVE) because it’s tangible.

And then there’s safari. I don’t have the Facebook app, ’cause I don’t get on as much as I have in the past, but when I do I usually just use safari to do so. I also open up Mix and Match Mama’s recipes on safari if i’m at the store and needing to know what my grocery list is. And then of course checking my grades. That’s really all I use safari for, and it’s funny because this is what was actually on my safari app when I opened it. I didn’t have to change it one bit to take this picture.

Phones are very descriptive of people’s lives. I think you can tell a lot about someone by the contents of their phone. Hopefully you know me a little better, or you just got some pleasure out of “creeping” on my phone!

Leave a comment below if you would like to “creep” on another part of my life!! I’m open for all kinds of requests.

Oh, one more thing….

October Goals

I know October started a week ago, but I had so much other fun stuff planned last week, that this was the first available day I had to post my monthly goals. This is my recap of September followed by what’s coming for October!!

SEPTEMBER’S GOALS:

1. Get to Church EVERY Sunday and spend the Lord’s Sabbath day resting. 
   1. While I have not physically been at Church every Sunday, I sit in my room usually before bed now and follow along with the sermon series online and take my notes then. While I would have liked to physically have been there, sometimes it just isn’t able to happen. I also changed my availability on Sundays to where they can’t schedule me, and honestly…this.is.the.best.thing.ever. If you work anywhere and can change your availability to no Sunday shifts, do it for yourself! Give yourself a day of rest. You deserve it!
2. Make 5 new recipes.
   1. Andrea’s Enchiladas
   2. Andrea’s Pulled Pork
   3. Shay’s Chicken Fajita Soup
   4. Morgan’s Olaf Birthday cake
   5. Costco’s Sun-dried Tomato Tilapia
3. Work out 3-4 times/week.
   1. Check, yes! If i’m not running, i’m walking, going to Yoga, following along with my pilates video, etc. As long as i’m doing some kind of work out, I feel good. And I have made it 3-4 times/week.
4. Establish a routine, whether it be a weekly/daily/monthly routine.
   1. I posted about my morning routine a couple weeks ago, so check it out! My Sunday mornings have become routine. My dad and I wake up at 7:00am and drive over to the golf course to practice about 2 hours. We get Starbucks on the way there and we get home before everyone else wakes up. Then, i’ll usually head over to yoga and Church afterwards. I looove Sunday mornings!
5. Buy myself 2 new things because I didn’t do it last month.
   1. I bought myself a new gold bracelet, some fall clothes, and scarves, and entry into the Susan G. Komen race for the cure. And i’m currently waiting on some other goodies to show you 🙂
6. Grow my blog!
   1. In September, I had 861 views. This makes me way way waaaay excited! I appreciate y’all for making this such a fun thing for me to do, and to look forward to. I also gained 9 followers. And had 12 comment, which are my FAVORITE thing to see.. Along with many non-blogging friends text me and tell me they love my blog. I can’t tell you how happy this makes me! Please keep on and share with people you know!
7. Get 3/9 of my Christmas presents. And a birthday present for mom!
   1. I decided to underline this, because I didn’t necessarily GET all my gifts, however I did come up with ideas. I just have to turn them into gifts. But i’m just happy I started somewhere.

OCTOBER GOALS:

1. Internship.
   1. I’m lucky enough to have an HR recruiter as my neighbor. I previously have talked with her and she said she might know someone in need of an intern. So, I want to get in contact with her and find an internship for the spring. Or possibly the summer.
2. Christmas gifts.
   1. Turn my ideas into tangible presents that I need to wrap. AKA get my presents. I want to have at least half my shopping done by the end of this month. Because after Halloween Thanksgiving, finals, mom’s birthday and Christmas come SUPER FAST.
3.  Organize my closet.
   1. My closet is all over the place! Since my brother and I switched rooms, I haven’t organized my clothes yet and i’ve got t-shirts with dresses and all that. It drives the OCD in me crazy, so i’m deeming this month the perfect time!
4. Make Angel Food Cake on Angel Food Cake day.
   1. My calendar tells me that Friday (October 10) is A.F.C day, so of course i’m going to celebrate it!
5. Finish Revenge and start a book.
   1. This is more about giving myself some down time, but I want to finish season 3 of Revenge on Netflix and get started with another book. I finished Sweet Salt Airand I LOVED IT!!! So did my mom! If you like the beach, blogging, love stories, heart break, you will like it to. For $10!
6. School stuff.
   1. I finish my government class next week…it’s an express class and then i’ll start History the week after, but I want an A in that class so my transfer GPA will be boosted. Along with that, I need to apply for scholarships to pay for classes next semester.

This is all i’ve got for this month. I think it’s a pretty big/time consuming list, but I think that writing it down will help me accomplish these goals.

What are your goals for this month?
Do we have any of the same ones?
