My 5k Challange day 7-15

Ok, so i have been doing really well getting my ass out of bed in the mornings and running. I get a little bit further everyday but i am still not quite up to a mile yet. I did however slack off on day 12 (Friday march 16th) and didn't run. It looked cold outside and my bed was so worm and no one was home but me so i kinda just slept that morning, but that was the first day i missed. Now i should have run on Sunday March 18 (day 13) but i knew i would not get the chance because of that days activities also i was in LA and didn't know the area. So i was going to run on Saturday but it was raining and there was no way in hell i was going to run in the rain. But on Monday i started right back up again and today i did a great job and run just a little more. I am more determined now than ever to run this 5k the whole way because now i am running for someone and if they can run 8 miles on a knee that hurts i can at least do 3 miles with no pain. And after this i may want to try a 10k and then a half marathon...!!! Oy what am i saying??? Let me just get through this 5k first. Wish me luck because tomorrow March 22 will be one month till the 5k. I hope i can keep going strong. Bye!!!

Cookie Baking!!!







So I love to bake and decided to make two batches of cookies today. The first batch of cookies I make was Snicker Doodle. I have make this recipe before and they turned out really well the first time; this time I think they turned out just as well. They were a little crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Here I have some pictures of what i did...


My next batch of cookies were Caramel Nut Drops. I have never made these before and don't really know if i will like them but i do like Snickers bars and the rest is simple cookie dough. I really hope they turned out well. I did a video on this one and that is posted above ^.

I love to try new baking recipes and if anyone out there would like to send me a desert type recipe for me to try i would love to attempt it. I don't cook food just bake deserts so if you have a cookie, brownie, cake or anything else that you don't want to try or a afraid to try then pleas send it to me, you can leave a comment with a recipe in it or e-mail me at AuroraDiannaMakeup@gmail.com
Thank you all for watching a reading!!!

My 5k Challange days 3-6

Okay, so day three and four went well i got up at 7:30 without too much problem and got my but out to run. The runs went well but Sunday (day 3) i didn't go as far as i would have liked but made up for it on Monday (day4). Tuesday and Saturday are no run days just in case you all out there wonder why i never mention them; but randomly i will now... was glad to have Tuesday off to sleep in. Wednesday (day 5) and today (day 6) i had a hard time dragging my butt out of bed. It was just so nice and cozy. I lay there yesterday and today arguing with myself about getting up and running, but in the end i did it and i am proud of myself for doing it. I hope i can keep up and getting up in the morning wont be such a challenge... ehh who am i kidding it will always be a challenge i love to sleep in. Even though it has only been six days my boyfriend, the one who started all this, has been so supportive and wonderful. He sends me texts in the morning that help motivate me. Well, wish me luck!!!

My 5k Challange day two

So i managed to get my ass out of bed at 7:30 this morning to run. I am very proud of myself because i ran the whole way except for about five steps. It was a shorter distance by far today but i managed to get it done. My legs are definitely sore but i some how managed to work for about seven and a half hours on my feet. I hope that i can continue to keep it up the mornings are really torture because i am the kind of girl who likes her sleep. Tomorrow is a no run day so hopefully i can get back on schedule come Sunday. This is actually turning out to be kind of fun, lets hope it stays that way. Bye!!!

My 5k Challenge day one

So i just got back from my first "run". I say "run" because i only ran about half the time. I am doing ok,  definitely out of shape but i made it. Now to keep this up... that is not going to go over well at all mostly because on the days i work im going to have to run in the morning, gerrrr. I just have to keep it up and hopefully by the time April 22 roles around i can run 5k, about 3 miles, with minimal stopping or no stopping at all. Wish me luck for tomorrow because that one will be another big challenge got to get up and run...oy.

My 5K Challenge


Ok, for all of you out there who don't know me i hate running, never do it, will protest anyone who asks me to. My boyfriend is running the LA marathon for the second time this year...now i am sure you can see where this is going...he wants me to start running. At first i laughed at him told him hell no i am not running. But my boyfriend is a persistent guy; he talked about the Disney half marathon and other small things but i refused said no!!! Just like that with lots of exclamation points. But then my boyfriend posts on my facebook this... ^ (check out the video above)
and for some reason i get excited, and i want to participate in it; so i look it up and this year it just happens to be in Irvine not to far from where i live. I tell my boyfriend lets do it. We get a team together and sign up. But now i have the idea to actually run the whole 5k. So i am starting my running training today; up until my boyfriend is done with his marathon i will be running alone. I have decided to blog my progress see how well i do and hope that everyone out there will help me and root me on. I can use all the support i can get. Wish me luck because here i go...eep!!!
