Wedding Countdown!

With much anticipation, stress, and excitement, I present to you the countdown to my wedding:

Pangea Facial Cream Giveaway from Sage and Savvy Reviews Blog!!

I'm a girl who loves me some night creams. I'm not sure if it's the scent, the great feeling when you wake up, or the fact I'm being so womanly, but whatever it is, I LOVE this giveaway! The prize is a wonderful facial cream from the all-natural (and SO chic) Pangea line, from Sage and Savvy Reviews and Giveaways blog! Ooh, I hope I get a chance to win this little beauty! I'm running low on ma night creams! :)

80 GB (!!) External Hard-Drive from Mandatory Blog!!

This red-hot little external hard-drive beauty is being RE-GIFTED by Mandatory Blog! The contest of course HAD to ask what our worst re-gifts or gifts were, and I of course had to tell my woes with my Grandmother's ratty stuffed-animal presents she hands out EVERY holiday. To EVERYONE. It's like she has an endless supply! Anyways, an external hard-drive is JUST the thing I need to start storing up my new-found life memories (I've stopped blogging for a while because of my recent engagement, and the stress because of said engagement). Great prize, funny contest!

Go go me!

Inkheart Movie Prize Pack from As They Grow Up!

Awesome. I've been mad crushing on Brendan Frasier since, I don't even know, George of the Jungle. Maybe the Mummy came before that, not sure. Anyways, this looks like another kid-friendly movie coming out that I'd love to take my sister to see--we had a lot of fun watching Journey to the Center of the Earth (TWICE) last year. As They Grow Up blog is giving away 20$ for Fandango, which will easily get me and my sister matinee tickets to see this film! :) What a great giveaway, super excited to see the movie!

Here is a link to the blog, the contest, and a movie trailer:

Hyda Healer Giveaway from Frugal Mommy of 2!!

I've only just started using moisturizers on my face, because I started to notice a trend in dryness. Ever since I have, I have immediately noticed clearer, more radiant skin...even from the cheap drug store creams! (That and of course, I feel more like a fancy all-grown-up woman applying night creams and sunblock in the morning!!) Anyways, Frugal Mommy of 2 is giving away a cream I could never ordinarily afford, but looks AMAZING. I would love to try this puppy out! I'm in it to win it!!

Here is the blog, the contest, and the giveaway:

L'Oreal Golden Globes from A Mom in Red High Heels

OMG. A whole bag of products that the star ladies received at the Golden Globes! Now I can really pretend I was invited, with this awesome giveaway from A Mom in Red High Heels' blog! All of these L'Oreal beauty products look fantastic, and many of them aren't even being released to the masses (like me) until later! It would be awesome to not only sample these new products, but give myself a little makeover as I dive into the college hump once again! Thanks, Mom in Red High Heels, for the chance to win this cool prize!

Crock Pot e-Lume from 5 Minutes for Mom

And so, the battle for cooking utensils begins. As I mentioned in an earlier post, getting married means COOKING SUPPLIES are desperately needed/wanted, etc. This chic little Crock Pot giveaway would be the perfect gift for me, I love delicious Crock Pot meals. And now I guess, my fiancee is going to have to love them whether or not he wants to, haha. What a great win this would be!!

The Flavor Bible Cookbook Giveaway from Redlady's Reading Room

I'm hoping to win my first cookbook ever, just in time for my impending wedding in June! That's right, I'm getting hitched! This would be a wonderful first cookbook, I'm not even sure where to begin with cooking and all. Redlady's Reading Room is being generous enough to give a few of these away, and just maybe one will go to little ol' helpless me!

Vaseline Clinical Strength Giveaway from Red Sox Mommy!

SOS my poor lizard boyfriend! He is always complaining about painful dry skin right when he gets out of the shower, so this giveaway from Red Sox Mommy would be PERFECT for him! He hates using the foofy scented lotions I use, but he's much too lazy to man up and buy some lotion at Target...this would be a funny surprise for him, and a great way to stop the whining! Thanks, Red Sox Mommy, for this awesome chance to win!

FruitaBu Giveaway from the Frugal Mommy Blog!

Yummy yummy, this is a prize for the obviously hungry blogger that I am. I've never heard of these fruit rolls before (I LOVE fruit rolls of all varieties, and even enjoy the healthy, natural kinds!) but my boyfriend has recently informed me that these are the best of the best fruit rolls! I'd love to put that to the test and get a box of these yummy treats!

Here is a link to the contest, the blog, and some more info on these healthy treats for children (and hungry girls like me!):

Mimobot Giveaway from Barefoot Mommy!!

I love collectible USBs! I already have a Mimobot design, made specially for the HBO show "Summer Heights High," and I LOVE it! It's so fun, I get tons of compliments when I carry it around campus. Anyways, Barefoot Mommy is graciously giving away a Mimobot design in MY CHOICE, and of course, I had to pick the space themed Mimobot (seen above). Hope I win!

Zenses Giveaway from Tara's View of The World!

Even the opening sequence of Zenses is relaxing...I hope it does wonders for me! :) I've also heard that the soundtrack of this fun, mini-game driven DS game is pretty incredible, too. Maybe I can use it to fall asleep at night, haha! Tara's View of the World (awesome blog, adorable layout) is giving away a Zenses DS game to one lucky winner! I hope that it will be me, this is exactly the kind of game I would just DEVOUR! :)

Zenses Giveaway (Of COURSE) from All Because Two People Fell in Love!!

At the All Because Two People Fell in Love Blog, a difficult choice had to be made. One of the hardest choices I've made in a lifetime: would I prefer the Zenses: Ocean, or Zenses: Rainforest?? It took a lot of random thinking to decide that perhaps the Ocean is the most relaxing place in real life, and therefore would make a better, more relaxing game. Am I wrong? I must also add, however, that I've never even BEEN to a rainforest, so how could I possibly know which place is more relaxing? I'm basing my knowledge on assumptions!!

Anyways, All Because Two People Fell in Love is being VERY generous indeed in giving away the Zenses DS game, which I'm desperately hoping to win! Maybe this Christmas will end happily, haha, and not on a note of utter stress!!

Two Zenses Games Giveaway at The Power of Housewife!!

Both Zenses: Ocean and Zenses: Rainforest are being given away at The Power of Housewife Blog (awesome name, I know). And because I've been dedicated to finding these awesome blogs giving away the Zenses games, I am only more excited to see that BOTH Ocean and Rainforest will be given away...like a 2-for-1! :) This game will hopefully be a helpful tool for relaxation after such an incredibly stressful holiday season! Thanks so much, Power of Housewife!!

Zenses Giveaway from Mom's Take On Things!!

If you don't know the history of my portable Nintendo obsessions, you ought to. I've owned every variety of Game Boy since their birth, and of course jumped all over the exciting and adorable DS. All of my favorite titles have been put out on that little DS, it has been well-loved. One of my favorite games has been Cooking Mama, which is a mini-game style similar to the Zenses series! That's why I'd really love to win the Zenses Rainforest or Ocean games, and hopefully Mom's Take on Things can make my wishes come true!!

Another Zenses Giveaway from Maria's Space!!

...By this point, I'm pretty sure Zenses is having a MAJOR promotion. Therefore, it is my job to plug every single blog hosting the Zenses DS Game Giveaway, in hopes to better increase my chances to win this awesome prize AND give props to the blogging peeps who support it! I can't decide whether or not Zenses Ocean or Rainforest sound more awesome to me...hmm, I'm very relaxed at the beach, but I can't say I've ever REALLY been to a rainforest, unless you count the San Diego Zoo. Whatev, I hope I win either way! :)

BOTH Zenses Ocean and Rainforest Giveaway from Chocolate Fingerprints!!

Yes! Another chance to win the Zenses DS game, but this time the Rainforest AND Ocean edition!! I've been interested in playing these games ever since I saw the strangely sci-fi esque commercials. As a HUGE DS player, I especially love DS games geared for fun mini games. They make great games to play if I'm waiting for something, like a class, etc. You can just pick them up and play! Apparently, these games are DESIGNED to sooth the mind. I'd like to see this happen--every time I play a DS game, I get WAY stressed out trying to beat it! What an awesome giveaway, it seems like it's tailored just for me!

Tamar's Techipedia Camping Set Giveaway!!

Camping. That's right. This is one of the more unusual contests I've ever entered: it's giving away the gift of camping. Tamar's blog from Techipedia is giving away three sets of different prize packages: one family set, one camping set, and one beauty/spa set. While the spa set looked nice, there was only one and one prize alone for me...you can guess what that is. I've always wanted to get my own tent and do my own camping--my family has been doing it since I was a kid, and now I have the chance to pack up and go with items in this prize that include an actual tent, sleeping bag, cooler, grill, and BBQ gift set. Dreams come true!

You can go check out the contest and the other prizes, as well as the blog, here through this link:

"Princess Debut" DS Game Giveaway on Thrifty Jinxy!!

Crazy, psycho, insane, but somehow lovable DS gamer ME is going WILD for this giveaway! I saw this game the other day in Gamestop (because of course, I browse there like a vulture all the time!) and I knew this would satisfy my weird need for cutesy DS gaming action! Over break, I've probably played hundreds of hours of Cooking Mama 2! And that's only one of the games I enjoy!

Anyways, Thrifty Jinxy is again blowing my mind with another giveaway I am oneday destined to win! Thanks so much, Thrifty, you know exactly the way to my little dorky heart! :)
