Photo Friday

These past couple weeks have been extremely hectic and stressful-- definitely foreshadowing for how the rest of my semester will pan out. It makes me really sad that my blog has sort of been on the back burner, but between school, work, friends, sorority stuff, and attempting to get some sleep... there's been limited time for me to work on posts. Hopefully it won't be that way every week. I do have some exciting videos and a few trips that will surely inspire me.

I know I'm not the only one with a crazy busy schedule, so I hope this weekend you find some time to relax. It is Valentine's Day (unfortunately), so maybe make that your excuse to do something fun. I'll be heading out with some of my friends to dinner and a movie-- we single ladies do have to stick together. We're hoping to see a proposal at some point throughout the night. And obviously, don't forget to rummage the stores for discounted chocolate on Saturday.

Happy Friday, happy weekend. I'll leave you with a couple snapshots from the past couple crazy weeks.

M&Ms and Gummy Bears: The greatest combination of candies on the face of the planet and arguably the tastiest movie night snack. Don't knock it til you try it.

From a fun day spent with some of my best friends. Don't hate me cuz I'm cliché, please.

I was a fashionista as a child. Overalls + a tutu is just all kinds of right.

Snowpocalypse 2014 hit us hard, and I was incredibly happy.

I took about a million snow pictures, since this is probably the only time I'll see snow during college.

This was the first magazine I'd bought in months. And yes, I bought it just because of Lena Dunham.

From a typical it's-10:30-and-I-want-pizza-right-now night. Those happen a little too often.. but I'm kind of okay with that.

I hope you have a splendid weekend, and a mediocre Valentine's Day (I kid, I kid). If you wanna make my Valentine's Day less sucky, you can go follow me in the places below--

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Happy Thanksgiving to you all! I hope today brings you happiness and very full tummies. I have sort of taken a break from blogging this week, but I have very exciting news that may or may not involve Christmas (hint: it does)! However, today is about giving thanks... and although we may be decorating our tree tonight, I'm going to try to focus on this great holiday. Go eat some turkey! And remember to count all of the wonderful blessings you have. Have a wonderful day!

A Day in the Life at College!

For today's post I thought it would be cool to film what I do on an everyday basis. I'm not exactly sure why I thought that would be interesting for the world to see... but it happened. I work, I do my laundry, I go to class, I run late to class, I workout, and even more. It gets pretty dang glamorous if I do say so myself. So if you'd like to see that, go check out the video below! And be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel! I will be trying to update that more often.

Photo Friday

It's been a crazy couple of weeks getting back into the routine of things. Now that I'm back at school I don't have quite as much time on my hands, so I haven't been updating as much. But thank you all for hanging around while I figure things out! I'm so glad it's finally the weekend, and a long one too. I'm excited to watch some football, hang out with my friends, and not worry about school (and finding yet another job).

Amanda came to visit me when I got to school. My room was a little freezing.

Throwing it back to our younger crafting days. Me and my brother are quite the artists.

 Red, buff, and green roses for Recruitment Week. It was crazy hectic, but so awesome. Go AGD!



Our Bid Day banner! I adore it.

Getting this sweet print & letter in the mail made my day. Thanks Tara!

Enjoy your time off & have a lovely weekend!

Moving in to College!

Last Friday my mom drove me up to school for move-in day! I decided I wanted to film a little video to remember the momentous occasion. I know how everyone loves heading back to school, I start in just a few days! Bleah. Anyway, let me know how you like the video. Enjoy! Oh... and happy Friday!

July in Photos

At the beginning of the month I wrote this post, challenging myself to take a photo everyday of the month. I actually did it! Some of the photos were taking a little last minute (ex. a half eaten bagel + watching Tiny Furniture), but I did it. This month flew by, so I'm glad I was able to capture a little moment of each day. There were 31 days in July, so one photo is left out, but you'll see it next week on Photo Friday!

Did any of you take on the challenge? Should I keep going? And of course, have a happy weekend!

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

This past weekend Amanda & her family were kind enough to take me with them to Atlanta to see the Braves play! Although it was pretty dang hot and sweaty out, the game was really awesome. There's just something fun about going to watch a baseball game every now and then. I have great memories of going to see the Braves with my family and my old youth group, so it's always fun when I get to go back. I took some pictures while we were there and I think they are quite fitting for this week as we're getting ready to celebrate the Fourth of July. Oh, and the Braves won! Duh. Enjoy!

The Yankees & The Braves are the baseball two teams I root for, what about you?

New Project

This "New Project" is inspired by Louise from Sprinkle of Glitter. She just finished up her 30 Day Snap series on her blog and posted the final collage of all the pictures yesterday. I thought it would be a fun challenge for myself to take a picture every single day and make a lovely compilation of them all at the end of each month. I won't be uploading a picture on here every day, and I will continue with Photo Fridays, but there will just be a fun collage of all the photos at the end of the month, similar to Louise's in this post... that is if I remember to snap a picture everyday. :)

Wish me luck!

Sweet Summertime: OOTD

For this month's final Thursday theme I wanted to share a summer outfit of the day with you all. I went downtown and had Panera for dinner and this is what I was wearing. My camera died as we tried to take the first picture, so these were actually taken with my iPhone. I love that thing! I think the quality is pretty dang good.

I threw on a bright dress & a denim shirt over top, and both items are from Target. It cools off ever so slightly in the evenings, so I can get away with the shirt. Bonus: it comes in handy for chilly restaurants.

I'm very proud of this purse. It was on clearance at Urban Outfitters and there was a 50% off sale going on so I got a $60 purse for only $10. Steal. The color looks different in every light; sometimes it's coral, sometimes orange, or just hot pink. I've been carrying it around all summer and I love it. 

My flip flops are Rainbows that I bought several years ago in a store called Journeys. Not the most stylish shoes, but they are super comfy and go with just about everything.

I've got some fun stuff planned for upcoming Thursday Themes! Until then go check out this month's other Sweet Summertime posts: a yummy smoothie recipe, a look inside my beach bag, & my dream vacation.

Get Ready With Me | Summer Outfit & Makeup!

I am really excited about today's post! On Sunday I filmed this "Get Ready With Me" video, where I take you through what products I use in the shower to what I wore that day. There are some bloopers at the end, of course, mainly of me awkwardly dancing and singing. Oh, it's good stuff. I do hope you all enjoy this one, let me know in the comments if you'd like to see more videos! I've really enjoyed making them.

Father's Day & Berry Pie

I'm sure many of you follow Emily from Cupcakes and Cashmere and saw this post about a delicious Triple Berry Pie. For Father's Day I thought it would be a nice gift to make for my Daddy, so I took on this one. I've actually never made a pie before, and this one was surprisingly easy to start out with. Though, I have two things to confess: 1. I did cheat on the meal plan I'm on (but it was a special occasion) & 2. I bought the pie crust. Ooops.

I also got to spend some time with my Dad at an Equestrian Center that helps teach kids with special needs how to ride. We ended up just being there for a raffle drawing, but maybe I'll get to go back again and help out another day. I don't think there are any fathers who read my blog, but if there's one out there I hope you had a Happy Father's Day! p.s. The pie was a success!

How crazy is that rooster? Let me know how you spent your Father's Day!

Let's Go To The Beach

Usually I love the rain, but when it is supposed to rain all week during summertime, I just start to miss the sunshine. Right now I wish I was at the beach with my toes in the water and a cold drink in my hand. Since I can't quite do that without getting rained on, I figured I'd live vicariously through some old photos.

If you could be anywhere in the world right now, where would you want to go?

On My Nails: Bikini So Teeny

Wearing blue on my nails was very different for me, but I love it! And can you imagine, this is my first Essie polish? I have to say that I prefer the bigger brush on this Sally Hansen polish for painting my fingernails though. It took two coats to get a really opaque look. I am having one problem, and you might be able to see in the pictures-- my polish keeps getting these tiny bubbles in them. I think it might be the base coat I'm using, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I love the color. I think it fulfills part of my childhood obsession with Cinderella.

What are some of your favorite Essie polishes?
