meet emily.

Meet Emily, she is such a nice, happy, cool and creative girl. I'm so glad that she contacted me for the sponsorship because I wouldn't of known about all of her beautiful jewelry! I wish I was that creative! But enough of my jabbering. Here she is. 

-------------------------------------------




Hi! I'm Emily, one of Rach's sponsors for this month. I like to define myself in many ways. Here's the short version: I'm a senior at Hunter College in New York City, a video editor, a jewelry designer, a super-small business owner, and a professional beach-goer. Now let's expand on that.


This is my school. We’re located on the upper east side of Manhattan. I'm a campus tour guide there, so I know all the interesting facts about the school that will impress prospective students. Looking into colleges in New York City? I'm your girl. I will be graduating in May 2012, and the feeling is both terrifying and exhilarating at the same time. Which brings me to my next point:

I'm a video editor. At Hunter, I'm a Media Studies major with a concentration in Documentary Film Production. I'm currently working freelance at a major cable network editing web-exclusive videos for their website. If you're curious and you want to know where I work, shoot me an email and I'll tell you :) In the meantime, here's a link to a video that I did for some of my friends in a band together.


I'm a jewelry designer. Above is one of my anklets which I sell on a local beach. I'm a super-small business owner. I've been selling on the beach for the past nine summers and I've been selling online for two years. My business is called, "The Jewelry Sheller." The origin of that name is for another story on another day.


I'm a professional beach-goer. Being from the south shore of Long Island, New York, I would not hesitate to say that the ocean's salt water probably runs through my veins. I love the beach...I live for the beach. I still find small pieces of shell stuck to my legs even after I've showered, and I find sand in my pocketbooks.

So yes, that is a snapshot of me. My blog, If It's the Beaches, is about all of these aspects of my life. 

Now it's time for some links!
You can find me in these places:

I'd love to hear from all of you. Feel free to stop by and say hello!

cute things every man should do.






 Okay boys (Bug). I am going to do you a favor and let you know what needs to be done to keep your hot dime on your arm. Just follow these simple rules and you won't have to deal with any cattiness. You might just get some extra hugs. ;)

Now, I am lucky enough to have a boy that does most of these. But you know what - Drew - if you are reading this, don't hesitate to try one of them out that you haven't!

Okay. On to the post.






----------------



1. Surprise her with a cute outfit and take her out.







2. Plan an entire day with her.



3. OPEN THE DOOR FOR HER. ALWAYS.





4. One single rose randomly. Or a dozen. Whatever.



5. Buy her her favorite movie, no matter how chicky, and watch it with her.




6. Be the best cuddler in the world.







7. Sit and watch the stars, no matter how cliche that sounds.




8. Tell her how hot she is, she know's though, of course. But reassurance it good.




9. A little love letter wouldn't hurt. Now if you did it all of the time, it might be a little creepy. But every so often, dude.







10. MAKE HER A NICE SUPPER. Or at least try. We know that you might not be the greatest cook in the world. It is truley the thought that counts.




11. Be witty. We love witty banter.




12. Be playful and funny. A laughing relationship is a happy relationship.







13. Space is good. She needs time with her chick's, you need time with your bro's. But you both need to still see each other, obviously.




14. Say something nice to her every day.




15. Take her out on the town.







16. Hold her hand every so often in public.




17. Good morning texts. 








18. And always say good night to her. 




19. Be a sweetheart, all the time.


--------------------------------- 

So there you have it, my tips for all of you boys out there reading this. And all of the girls that want to send there man this way and show them what's up.

Let me know if there are any others that I didn't include. I'd love to know what you think, my friends. :)
