Stressful Day

Fall Break is finally here and boy did I need it. One of my classes just ended, but midterms started for every class along with me having to battle the flu and strep. Oh, and I also got the bill for the first semester of nursing and I about had a heart attack. And to top it all off, there's even more requirement and more money that I need to spend before I can officially begin in January. My already frizzy hair has now turned into a bush basically and no amount of Moroccan oil or olive oil treatments will help it. So, I went a different route. Today has been the first day that I've actually been able to sit down and relax and that turned out to be the not so best thing for me. It's now been 2 hours and I just spent a unreasonably horrid amount of money on online shopping for boots. I have no idea why I did it, especially when I'm in such a need for money for next semester but I couldn't help myself... There were sales and I was depressed.. Oh god. I'm an addict aren't I?

They're all worth it though don't you think?

Room Decor

I'm way overdue for a room makeover considering that I've had the same scheme since the 6th grade. I've been pulling all these pictures from everywhere for some inspiration... What do you think? I'm totally loving the upholstered door and petrified tree lamp. One of the blogs that I follow is called songofstyle, and she always has beautiful things and awesome pictures to draw inspiration from.

On second hand, maybe I should just do away with redoing my room and convert the whole thing into a closet...

Good Mornin!

Yay! Summer school is officially over for me! That means a week of vacation and then back for school again :( I promise I'm still here and happy and healthy, it's been so super busy lately, of course. I've been dealing with the same ol' same ol', and yet I still can't get a routine figured out. One thing is for sure though, I'm so over this hot and humid weather! Call me strange, but I love when it's chilly and frosty. I've been trying to shoo away the monster inside of me that keeps screaming for shoes, but I couldn't help looking at some boots that I've been eyeing for the fall. It's a strange mix, but I'm always drawn to anything kind of raggedy-western type and anything with metal accents. I have short legs so I usually stray away from the ankle height boots, but some of these... I may have to break down and just rock em.

h-e-l-l-o

Hey guys! I know it's been forever, sorry! It's been just the same ol', same ol'. I find out this week if i get into nursing or not and I'm extremely nervous. i'm trying so hard not to think about it and stay busy with others things, but as soon as my mind has a split second of freedom, it jumps back to whether I get in or not. I'm kind of scared to admit it, but I think I'd be happy either way. If I get in, it would just be unbelievably amazing. Like, this is what I've wanted my whole life (except to find a rich Italian guy haha) but I would be so super busy and try to get CNA and a couple of summer courses done before first semester starts in August which will be super stressful and nerve-racking because it's things that have to be done. If I don't get in, I can work for a bit longer and save up even more money, take those classes in the summer and/or fall and soak everything in instead of rushing through it, and try again for the next semester. I don't know. I'm just really nervous, and I feel like I'd be jinxing myself either way. One good thing that has come out of all of this though is that I'm seriously kick ass at scrabble now haha. Sternocleidomastoid? Yeah. That's like game right there.

butter legs

Spring time is almost here!.. And I'm kind of scared. I was doing really well with working out and watching what I ate and lost some pounds and felt great! But lately I've been dealing with school, work, midterms, family, life.. basically just everything and the stress and everything isn't treating me very well. My spring break is officially starting now and I'm determined to get back on track! I'm going to be keeping a strict written log of everything and hopefully something will come of it. I'll try to comment on it about once a week, mostly just to try to keep myself motivated haha. One of my friends said you have to dedicate to it, and after about 2 months you'll start to see results. Well, I guess my dedication starts today. Wish me luck!
