Hello! It's August 31st - that means tomorrow starts September! I'm going to try each month to give you a little update on my life so you can have sort of an idea about how busy I am at that time and so you'll know what to expect on the blog, such as tons of posts, or not so many posts. So, lets start by summing up my summer. I took a cruise starting in mid-June that went all over Northern Europe, which each place should have a review already up. Then we got back in time for the Fourth of July and I sort of just hung out at home for a while, and went to and had a few pool parties. In July, I was once again a Camp Aide at Camp Todd. A few days later, I went on the annual Hershey Park trip with the Masonic Youth - this time with the Job's. That Sunday I competed in the Junior Beach Patrol Olympics held in Rehobeth, and 2 weeks later I headed to Ocean City to participate in a week of Junior Beach Patrol.  We saw Ke$ha at the Delaware State Fair, and saw cousins at the Que...

Bath and Body Works is a popular store that sells different types of lotion, body wash, shower gel, candels, body scrub, lipgloss, and pretty much anything that can have a smell. They have all different fragrences too, and most have an entire collection. The Peach Citrus scent is no different. This is one of the Signature Collections currently avaliable in Bath and Body Work stores all over. This is a cool flavor because it has both the citrus and the peach. Its not an overpowering smell like some of the other scents, which is good, but it still has a smell. I'd reccomend it to citrus and peach lovers!

Title: Darkhouse Author: Karina Halle Series: Experiment in Terror Book: 1 About the Book: (Smashwords) There’s always been something a bit off about Perry Palomino. Though she’s been dealing with a quarter-life crisis and post-college syndrome like any other twentysomething, she’s still not what you would call “ordinary.” For one thing, there’s her past which she likes to pretend never happened, and then there’s the fact that she sees ghosts. Luckily for her, that all comes in handy when she stumbles across Dex Foray, an eccentric producer for an upcoming webcast on ghost hunters. Even though the show’s budget is non-existent and Dex himself is a maddening enigma, Perry is instantly drawn into a world that both threatens her life and seduces her with a sense of importance. Her uncle’s haunted lighthouse provides the perfect catalyst and backdrop for a horrific mystery that unravels the threads of Perry’s fragile sanity and causes her to fall for a man, who, like the most d...

Hello! I was thinking about doing a Blog Hop sometime in the near-ish future and was wondering if anyone out there would be interested in joining me? If so, leave a comment below! Or if you just want me to visit your blog, I will, as long as you leave the link! Thank you and Happy Blogging! ~Tasha Nicole

Hello! Hopefully you all survived Hurricane Irene! I'm glad I did! She did do some damage, and pictures will be uploaded to TashaNicole Photos on facebook, and I might do a post about it, but right now, I'm here to review the Clip-In Feather Hair Extensions I got today! I got them at Walgreens, and I'm not sure what brand they are, so if you want the ones I'm reviewing here, they were at Walgreens for $4.99. I got the pink long one and the teal long one. These cute hair accessories are really easy to put in and take out, it's as simple as snapping on a barrette. That's all it is, is a hair clip with feathers attached to the ends. That's good because then you can take them in and out easily and if you buy a lot you can have different ones to match each outfit. They don't fall out once they are clipped in, which is great! I went to the river to see how bad it had flooded earlier today and it was extreemely windy. My hair was flying all around, but my f...

The Five Star Wirebound College Ruled 5-Subject 200 page Notebook is a notebook I use all the time for anything and everything! It's a strong notebook that can uphold tons of writing and doesn't easily get ruined. I took it to a crab feast today (yes, during Hurricane Irene, while shes here!) and the winds were really bad and strong and they blew a few pages but nothing cameout of it and the notebook itself is still in good condition. This notebook is good for school and such because it does have 5 subjects in it. I use mine for just randomness, but I plan on getting another one for school to keep all my notes in - 1 section per class. I like it, and it comes in all diffrent designs and colors too, so anyone will like how theirs looks, and I reccomend using this when you need a notebook.

Last Weekend's Question: Who's birthday is it? Answer: Princess Amber Bonus: How old is she? Answer: 12 This Weekend's Question: What is type of manicure has a natural color base and white tips? Hint: Its very common. Bonus: none this weekend

Betterton Beach is a beach located on the Chesapeake Bay in Betterton, MD. Across the bay is Aberdeen, MD and Bel Air, MD. Betterton is a few miles near Chestertown, MD. It's really flat for being part of the Chesapeake bay, and you only get a few waves when big boats go by. Noodles are great in this water. What's so good about it is that all year, there are no jellyfish! It can be kind of cold, though, but so can any body of water. Its a small beach. Its free to go in and there is a resturant right up the hill from it. If you're in the area during the summer, you should go check it out!

Product: Casio Brigade phone Brand: Casio Service: Verizon Wireless Rate: 4/5 My Thoughts: The Casio Brigade is my current phone, and my current carrier is Verizon. It's such a cool phone because it's waterproof, shock proof, and smoke proof. I can take pictures underwater in the pool and text in the shower! I love it! But it is bigger then a lot of phones and barely fits in my pocket. It does have cases that attach to pants, but I prefer to just slip it in my pocket. Its a good phone overall, its just the size thats the problem.

Wow. I love Velveeta Shells & Cheese Cup. Each day for a snack I eat one of these. It's so simple to make and sooo tasty. You just add water, microwave for 3 minutes, stir in the cheese sauce, and wait 1 minute. I like the cheese sauce in this better then the powder cheese in Kraft's original macaroni and cheese cup. I think it blends better, creating a smoother complection which feels good on the tounge and it has a taste the taste buds love. I love Velveeta and would definately reccomend it.

Fager's Island is a restuarant located on the Bay Side of Ocean City, Maryland. It is much like Seacrets and often compared to Seacrets, though I personally like Seacrets a lot better. Fager's Island is the Hawaii of Ocean City. (Seacret's is the Jamacia of Ocean City.) The food is good, but overpriced, and the non-alcoholic daquiris were not good at all. But on Tuesdays, they have Paddleboard Lessons (a picture of me and my sister doing this is above) for $5 when you eat at the resturant. Honestly, you don't need to though because they don't check for a recipet and there is no way to know where you ate. It was a good experience doing the paddleboard and I had fun. :) They have longer lessons too if you are interested. I would reccomend doing the paddleboarding, though the food I would say to skip. They also have a store there as well.

Wow! It's been a while since we've done one of these! But none the less, we WILL get back on track! haha This Weekend's Question: Who's Birthday is today, August 19th? Hint: She is the owner's sister. Bonus: How old is she?

Thank you to R.Lynn for agreeing to do this interview! Her answers are in fushia , and Tasha Nicole's questions are in black. 1. What is your full name? Rebecca Lynn- nice to meet you. (I don't like using my full name becuase i think it sounds too country; "Rebecca-Lynn get your arse out to the barn and milk the cows." <--- see!) 2. How did you come up with the idea for Descendants? Descendants was inspired by Basque mythology and in response to another book that had become very popular at the time i started writing Descendants. I didn't like the message this other book was giving young women- That men are the foundation for happiness and without one in your life you should become suicidal and depressed. Basque mythology was the perfect fit as it is female dominated. When you read the Descendants you will probably think I'm a feminist as it is a matriarchal society, the main villains and hero's are all women. Even the last names are female rela...

Title: The Upside Down Riddle Book Riddles by: Louis Phillips Graphics by: Neau Gardner Copyright: 1982 Genre: Childrens My Rating: 4.7/5 My Thoughts: The Upside Down Riddle Book is a childrens book that you are never too old for. The rhymes are cute and the riddles really get you thinking. But don't worry, if you can't figure it out, just turn the book upside down and the picture will show you the answer. Even though this book is a bit old, it still is a wonderful kids book and should be considered a classic along with Goodnight, Moon. I reccomend kids try it.

If you live in Delaware or on Maryland's Eastern Shore, come to the Mid Shore Crab Feast!! It is to be held at the Tuckahoe Sports place in Easton, MD on August 27th from 11AM-4PM. Food will start at 1pm. Adults $30, Kids $10. If you don't like crabs, don't worry - there will be a large selection of other food too! Just come prepared to have a good time! I'll be there at a table for Masonic Youth. Stop by and say hi!

Title: The Fearsome Beastie Author: Giles Paley-Phillips Illustrator: Gabriele Antonini Copyright: 2011 Mavrick Arts Publishing Genre: Childrens My Thoughts: A beastie is hungry for some kiddies and walks around in the streets tricking them to come out so he can eat them. But one clever kid runs to his Grandmother who bravely chops the beast with an axe, setting the kids free and making beastie stew. I loved how it rhymed. I love rhymey books. I thought it was a really cute childrens book and would be great to tell near Halloween to young children. I reccomend it to kids ages 4-6, 3 if they have a strong heart lol. My Rating: 4.5/5 I see this book going far in the kid world!

Title: The Moon and The Tide Series: Marina's Tales Version: Ebook (Kindle) Author: Derrolyn Anderson About the Author (derrolyn.com): As much as I love the wine country, I’m nostalgic for the decade I spent living by the sea. My latest serial obsession has been writing, and out of the blue I’ve been inspired to write some fun fiction. The book series “Marina’s Tales” consists of several romantic / suspense / mystery novels for readers of all ages. I consider them a love letter to Aptos, California, my former seaside home. Summary (derrolyn.com): Just when things seem to be all figured out, Marina discovers that there’s a lot more going on behind the scenes than she ever imagined. When a terrible accident exposes her secret, she discovers that her whole life has been a lie and has to cope with more than one kind of betrayal. A dangerous enemy arrives on the scene, putting her bravery to the test and forcing her to use all of her newfound talents to protect her famil...

Sollara is heir to Aqauticus, an  important part of aa prophecy, and an elemental. She can control fire and use it to her power; she can also use other people's gifts as if they were her own. Together her and Kai - the other part of the prophecy, water and sky elemental - can save the world. On her 18th human birthday, her adopted father - the murderer of her parents - takes a chance by bringer her to the Surface. Unfortunately for them, seeing the sun activates her powers and they soon find out, wanting her dead. But thanks to her protector, she escapes. Or was it all a dream? And who is Nicola? This book ends on a real cliffhanger and I cannot wait to read the next book in the series! IT did annoy me that practically nothing was abrieviated - it was all did not (not didn't ),  is not  (not isn't ), etc. -and  the passionate parts were kind of gross, but the plot and suspense made up for it. I would definately roccemd it, but only to 16 +, or at least in 10th or...

Title: Between the Land and The Sea Author: Derrolyn Anderson Series: Marina's Tales About the Author (From Derrolyn.com): As much as I love the wine country, I’m nostalgic for the decade I spent living by the sea. My latest serial obsession has been writing, and out of the blue I’ve been inspired to write some fun fiction. The book series “Marina’s Tales” consists of several romantic / suspense / mystery novels for readers of all ages. I consider them a love letter to Aptos, California, my former seaside home. Summary (from Derrolyn.com): Something extraordinary is lurking in the deep ocean waters off the coast of Aptos, California. Just a few weeks after moving to the beach town, sixteen year-old Marina has nearly drowned twice, enchanted the hottest guy in high school, and discovered a supernatural creature. If she can manage to survive her increasingly dangerous encounters with unpredictable mermaids, she might just be able to unlock the mystery of her past and le...

If you're looking for a terrific, addicting game, then you've come to the write post. Batman Arkham Asylum is a perfectly amazing game, for anyone who is in search of something addicting. In the game, Batman is bringing the Joker back to Arkham Asylum, with his henchmen, which are called "Blackgate Prisoners." While taking him in, Batman has to stay back after a guard tells him only Arkham Staff can go through. Joker knocks the guard and the doctor out and is on a rampage through the asylum. As Batman, you have to stop Joker and the Black Gate prisoners from taking over Gotham, and throughout the game, you can complete Riddler challenges, by collecting trophies, and destroying Joker teeth. Joker also has the formula to Titan, an antidote created by Dr. Young, to strengthen the prisoners of Arkham. But it went terribly wrong and created monsters. Joker turns blackgate prisoners into the monsters and Batman has to defeat them. There are also Boss Battles with familiar c...
