Far Cry 3 - $33 via Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day! #FarCryGold #spon

Thank you to Ubisoft for sponsoring this post. Please visit Amazon.com to get your own copy of Far Cry 3, today's Gold Box Deal of the Day! I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective. All opinions are my own.

New Year's brings about the start of many changes for many people. With resolutions to uphold, there is a lot of stress that comes with it all. For myself, this year is bringing about a lot of problems and issues that have to be dealt with. This, in turn, causes quite a bit of stress, of which is not welcomed and makes things hectic.

I have many stress relieving methods I use, the top being meditation. There is no better feeling than that of clearing your head of everything for an hour or two. It clears your head, and helps you think of things in different ways after. I also enjoy taking my dogs on a long walk in the cold, it is very refreshing. The third method, while seeming a bit odd to some, is listening to some hard rock music at a very, very high volume. And if all else fails, video games have been a common method I've turned to since I was young. Growing up in the golden age of gaming (the 90s), this comes to no surprise.

Speaking of, I wasn't much into first-person shooter games, but in the past couple of years they have grown tremendously on me. The stories behind the games, the amount of dedication, and the immersion into them have made them a favorite genre in a short amount of time. And with great timing, Amazon is having a great deal today. You can get Far Cry 3 for $33 via Amazon's Gold Box Deal!

After getting a chance to play for Far Cry 3 at a friends house, I can't wait to get a copy for myself! So if you, yourself, can't wait, make sure you take advantage of Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day and snatch up a copy for only $33!

Assassin's Creed III: $33 via Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day! #AC3Gold #spon

Have you guys heard of Assassin's Creed III? I'm joking, everyone had heard of the Assassin's Creed series, and Assassin's Creed III has been a hot video game ever since it's release on October 30th of this year. Specials were plastered all over Black Friday ads, both in-stores and online. I didn't manage to get a copy during that time, because it was sold out by the time my place came about. And if you seemed to miss the great deal on Black Friday as well, I have some GREAT news for you!
 
Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day for today, December 11th, is Assassin's Creed III at the amazing low price of $33! That's huge drop from the retail price of $60 and it's only for today. Amazon's Gold Box Deals day-only deals are great for the hottest item, especially during the Holiday Season. And if Assassin's Creed III is a must-have on your loved ones list, what better time to grab one!

Desmond Miles of Assassin's Creed.

If you're not familiar with the amazing Assassin's Creed series are historical action-adventure video games, all set in different periods. They follow Desmond Miles, who is a modern-day Assassin, who gets taken by Abstergo Industries. They are out for information for pieces of information to help them find certain artifacts that will allow them control human kind. The whole story and game play is amazing, it truly is one of my favorite video game series. And that is the great part of Assassin's Creed, that you have AC I, II, II, Brotherhood and Revelations to keep the story going and you see a lot of character development in just the first game alone.

I'm dying to get my hands on a copy of Assassin's Creed III, so if you are too, make sure you take advantage of Amazon's Gold Box Deal of the Day and snatch up a copy for only $33!

Share and Care with Kleenex! #KleenexSWS

With these cold Winter months we're experiencing, many of us fall victim to the cold and flu. Being sick is not something I have ever enjoyed. However, the one thing I think we all looked forward to when we were young, was staying home sick. Of course, this didn't fix the pain, constant coughing, runny nose or our dependency on others. Thankfully I had a mother who was home during most of the day, and when I had to stay home, there was always one food she would make for me.

Sopa de Res is a type of soup my mother makes from our homeland. It's a Nicaraguan-soup that is just full of great stuff like meat, plantain, summer squash, carrots, cassava root, corn, cabbage, cilantro and many other veggies and herbs simmering together. The result is a hot soup with a great light but very rich broth. It takes a lot of work to make sopa de res, but the result it delicious, and it's something I always associate with being under the weather. Of course, eating any type of hot soup while sick will make your nosy runny, and that's where Kleenex comes in. Some people just run to the toilet paper, but I have sensitive skin and Kleenex tissues never makes my nose feel rough or irritates it.

Kleenex has always been out go-to brand for tissues, I especially love their seasonal boxes with cute prints. Whats great is that Kleenex is offering Care Packs, and Share Packs. When you purchase specially marked boxes of Kleenex tissue you can send Share Packs, which consist of a box of Kleenex tissues or Care Packs, which consist of lip balm, hand sanitizer, Kleenex Brand Share Pack, Kleenex Brand Slim Pack, a coupon booklet, and card you can redeem to download four songs from select Universal Music Artists. All you need to do is redeem the code on the package by going on the Kleenex website and make someone's sick-day a little better.

Festival People En Español #TargetAtFestival

There is no better way to spend Summer than attending carnivals, events and concerts. It's all just screams "fun". If you are in the San Antonio, TX area you are all in for a huge treat. The Festival People En Español will be held on September 1-2, celebrating Hispanic entertainment, culture and community. The event is presented by Target and includes performances from the biggest names in Latino music; Luis Miguel, Tito "El Bambino", Prince Royce and more. The Festival People En Español will be free to visitors. It will include musical performances and even Q&A sessions with telenovela stars. In addition, Festival People En Español will offer visitors two days of free, open to the public events including the opportunity to catch exclusive Q&A sessions with celebrities and telenovela stars, hear tips from leading industry experts on topics ranging from fashion to wellness, and interact with favorite brands.

The event sounds like tons of fun, and a great way to get the family our for some free fun! Tickets are on sale for the performances, and if we lived nearby, we would definitely be checking out those Luis Miguel and Tito "El Bambino" performances. I became a huge fan of reggaeton back in the late 90's - early 00's, before it exploded around 2004. Hector and Tito was one of my favorite duos, but they have since then split. They continue to make great music. Luis Miguel is just a household name in practically every Latino family's parties. Since I can remember, our family parties will always have that romantic Luis Miguel song playing lat into the night for the couples, it's music that lasts well into the generations.

If a free amazing weekend-long event to celebrate Hispanic culture wasn't enough, the great people over at Mamiverse.com are hosting weekend-long Twitter party celebrations for a chance to win fabulous prizes, including 16 concert tickets, $900 in Target gift cards and more:
