Ulta/CVS Haul and Review + First YouTube Video EVER!!

Hey Hopeful's,


I've been wanting to start a YouTube channel for a while now but just didn't have the guts so here it is. I finally bit the bullet and uploaded my first video.  Yes I know it's terrible quality and I'm sure I'm very awkward but I'm working on it :)


I love watching hauls so I figured that would be a good place to start.  If you want to check out my most recent Ulta/CVS haul feel free to take a look at the video posted below!  Love you all!

Welcome To Hopeful Alyssa

Hello All!

Welcome to Blog #1.  This whole blogging thing is new to me so bear with me as I get the hang of it.  I thought an interesting way to start out my blog would be to explain where "Hopeful Alyssa" came from.  I have always been very drawn to anything related to Hope.  It was quite a struggle for my parents to have children and when they were finally blessed with me they viewed me as their Hope that they would be blessed with more children.  I always loved this story and I believe to this day that having Hope with me at all times has made me into the positive and happy person I am/try to be.  

I'm not sure what I want this blog to turn into yet, I love makeup and nail polish but I equally love cooking and baking.  Perhaps it will turn into a little big of everything!

Love,

Hopeful Alyssa
