    I really hope you have a great time and enjoy! NSD's just have to be broken if and when the right time / deal comes along for something you need. A break is something everyone needs <3

    Today is going to be another NSD for me 20/27 and it's maracas time! - I love this gif <3 For whatever reason, it makes me laugh :D
