{Day One}

Hi there! Sorry this is a little late, three days to be exact. I've had a long list of to-do's this week, and haven't exactly had the time. But now I do! Finally, that I have no more classes for the week, and not a ton of homework due. So here I am writing my first post of my 30 day photo project, and it begins with a portrait of none other than myself.

Day 1: Self Portrait

My weekend is going to be kind of packed, since my boyfriend Ty is coming to visit me and I will be very delighted to see his handsome face :) But, I will make sure to post again tomorrow for Day 2. I hope everyone had a good thursday!

30 Day Photo Challenge

Hi there everyone, aren't you all glad it's finally the weekend! I know I sure am. So beginning on Monday, I will be embarking on a photo adventuer, and I will be documenting a particular picture each day according to the list I have posted below.  My sister (Serendipitous Things) told me about this thirty day challenge she was going to be doing, and convinced me to do it as well. I'm actually very delighted to be doing this, as it will get my creativity reeling again. I am having withdrawls from anything artsy, since I have been mostly focusing on school, and I don't know if I can take it much longer. Even though it may take some self-dicipline on my part since I tend to procrastinate, a lot, it will force me to prioritize my daily agenda, which will allow me to pay more attention to my blogging duties. I hope you guys will enjoy my photo journey as I most likely will, and have a fantastic weekend! 

Crazy for Coffee

Hello! I am cutting it very close as I am writing this ten minutes before the clock strikes midnight, and it will no longer be the 29th. So, happy National Coffee Day! I wasn't actually aware that there was such a thing until I saw a reminder administered by Starbucks reminding their loyal coffee lovers of the day everyone gathers to celebrate their favorite caffeinated drink. I took advantage of this so called holiday and indulged myself in a steaming cup of a pumpkin spice latte. Even though I've been trying to cut back on my coffee intake, since i the tally for how much I've spent at Starbucks has grown just a little too much, this was a good reason to make an exception.

My sister Jessy (Serendipitous Things) also celebrated in the event, and was that lattee sure delicious :) I will probably be back tomorrow, well I should say today. I didn't exactly make the deadline, since I am now ten minutes past. Oh well, I close.

Have a nice day everyone :)

Shop Nelle

Hello Everyone! I had trouble deciding what I wanted to blog about today. I have too many things I want to talk about. But his morning I came across the website Nelle, and I absolutely adore every single thing in this shop, so I thought I would share it with you. All of the products are offered in a wide variety of colors, which gives them an even more unique flare.

I love practically anything that has ruffles, bows, or flowers, which is exactly what these clutches and belts are all about. They are all so temping, too bad I'm trying to cut back on my spending right now, otherwise I would most definitely invest in one of these pieces. 

Thanks for stopping by, have a good day everyone! 

A Wrap Up of My Weekend

So, I took the weekend to travel back home for a little visit, and I think I needed it. I'm adjusting to living in the city and the difference of life style, along with the traffic. I am even starting to adopt some road rage, which doesn't exactly fair well for me since I already had quite a bit of it before I moved to a place where common courtesy is more or less a rarity among drivers. And when I'm rubbed the wrong way behind the wheel, oh boy does my temper kick in on overdrive. That was one aspect I didn't want to rub off on me, but I guess it's a tad bit too late now. But that is besides the point. Anyways, I was very happy to see my parent's who weren't even aware I was coming, one of the other things I need to work on, I'm not exactly good at remember to rely information that probably should be. But, either way, it was a nice surprise for them. My dogs Lola and Sam, were rather excited to see me too, on the other hand, my cat Tom didn't exactly know what was going on, probably got into the cat nip again.

I bought some new editing software for my computer, only ten bucks. Score. I wanted to try it out, so I took the opportunity to take some photos of the animals doing what they do best. The one of Sam, the chihuahua pictured above, the one who looks like a llama, was perfect. I caught him in his famous pose, working his beta fish expression.

On thursday, I went wedding dress shopping with my best friend Britney, who has been one of my closest friends since kindergarten. She is getting married on July 28h of next year. I am beyond beyond beyond EXCITED, when I found out I was practically hyperventilating when she sent me the picture of her ring. So beautiful and sparkly. I'm so happy for her, and I am very honored to be apart of her special day. It seems like all I look at these days is bridal this and bridal that, I'm obsessed and it's not even my wedding.

Here is a picture of us back in the old days:

One of the many dresses she tried on, but which ever dress makes the cut, she is going to make a beautiful bride.

Speaking of weddings, on Saturday I attended my boyfriend Ty's aunt Ashley's wedding. It was a very fun time, and the dance was pretty epic :) It was nice to spend some time with him and his family.

It was a hard leaving him again, the long distance thing is not as easy as I tried to tell myself. It could be much worse, luckily we are only five hours apart. I am very grateful for that, but it's still tough. Well, that's a wrap up of my weekend, I hope I didn't bore you too much with my rambling!

Have a happy monday :)
