{ Breathe...and Reboot. }


{breathe. make a list. it will all get done.}



Doesn't it seem like just as you scrounge up the money to pay your bills, they are already sending you new ones?

Tell me that's not just me.

I have so many exciting things ahead of me this summer with my internships in Chicago. I truly could not be more excited.

With the excitement comes a wee bit of stress. Just a wee bit. I need to sublet my apartment. I need to figure out a way that I'm going to pay my phone bill when I'm living there with no paying job. I'm hoping there is still time for me to save up a substantial amount of money before I leave, but I feel like every time I turn around I'm having to spend money on something. I need to figure out if I'm going to take summer classes. Is it worth the money? 

Then again, my paychecks have been off the last few weeks so maybe that's to blame for this sudden surge of stress.

Oh, I also dropped my iphone on the concrete yesterday as I was scrambling to get to work on time (I was actually super early but then realized the parking meter I was at was out of order so I had to find a new parking spot) and the screen shattered. I don't know how much they'll charge me to fix it,  but I guess I'll find out soon. Either way, it's useable for now so I'm not panicking about it.

At the end of the day, life is great. I'm so lucky. I mean, dropping your iphone on concrete and being stressed out about your cable bill? Definitely first world problems. All will be figured out in the end, and for now, I'm just going to breathe...and reboot. (brownie points for you if you can name that quote)

P.S. A post with more budget tips for furniture shopping is still coming! I just needed to change directions a little today. Hope you understand.

{ a reverie to escape reality...}


I know a vacation wouldn't actually save me from my very long to-do list or other stresses, but I can't help but to daydream just a little. I would love to get away from reality and bask in the glory of the sun and sand. My extensive list of projects and papers has even taken my time away from this little blog, and that's always frustrating. The load doesn't seem to be lightening up anytime soon, though, so I guess I better put on my big girl panties and get over it.

How do you guys deal with stress?

Thanks for stopping by, y'all. lovelovelove.
