Good Friday

Okay, I will admit that I may have dropped that ball a bit. I forgot it was Good Friday today until yesterday. I'm not really sure what you're supposed to do on Good Friday since it was the day that Jesus died, but going to a show in Seattle seems like a good idea, right?! Tonight I am going to a Tokyo Police Club show with my boyfriend and friends. Uber excited to say the least!

This weekend is going to be fantastic because I finally get to see my family for an extended period of time, since I am always on the go. Pictures to follow I'm sure!

Enjoy your weekend!

I Love Giveaways

Okay, so I have found another giveaway that I have fallen in love with. If you know me, I am always looking for new and different accessories. I am a 'jeans and a t-shirt' type of girl (most of the time!) so accessories add a little pazzazz to what could be a bland outfit. I follow the blog Una Bella Vita, and she always has great quotes, pictures, and now this giveaway! It is for these cloth bracelets by Theif and Bandit and their products are so cool! I am in love <3. Here are some pictures since I am not the greatest at describing things ;)

Today

The phrase "it comes all at once" seems to describe my life at the moment. It feels like I blinked and it is already the middle of the quarter. I have papers due, assignments to hand in...Like I am standing still while the world and my life is buzzing around me. My melancholy demeanor doesn't match the brief sunshine peeking through the clouds right now, but all I can focus on is how I want to get away from everyone and just sleep. Hibernation. That sounds nice. But, alas, I have aspirations that won't be achieved by themselves. So I must bite the bullet, be a big girl and redirect my nose to the grind-stone.


These two pictures have been the two things I remind myself when I get in these down-and-out moods or encounter unsavory people:


 Both pictures (via).

And I'm lucky enough to have permanent cheerleaders that will always give me encouragement when needed. (Just a few pictures of some of them!). My baby sister, my middle sister, and my boyfriend. They are all so wonderful and I love them oh so much :)





There is always a silver lining <3

Decided.

It has been so ridiculously long since I posted! Oops :) A lot has been going on, and the fact that I am sitting still and NOT sleeping is an anomoly. But I have come to a conclusion so I can maybe have an *excuse* for not posting as frequently, and that is to make my posts have a theme, because believe you me I can ramble about nothing for quite sometime..My idea for the blog is to make it about:
  • Clothing, fashion, books, photographs..things that I enjoy.
  • My boyfriend and I have a 'baking date' almost every week, so I would LOVE to document our creations!
  • Cosmetics in general. It is true, I am a girly-girl and love all things cosmetic. If I try a new product, I'll give my review here!
  • Fun trips that I go on with my boyfriend and loved ones :)
I am an extremely opinionated and strong-willed person, but I have enough time to debate and develop my ideas OUTSIDE of the blogging world, so I am going to *try* to steer clear of politically charged and global issues. Although I may comment on it, I don't want those to be the focus. Let's keep it light, shall we?
