{Chick Flicks and Eye Candy.}

I wish I was wearing this today. Sadly I'm wearing ratty running shorts and a wifebeater (gawd I hate that word) that I stole from Treasure. I get dressed in gym clothes most mornings because then I have no excuse not to go. Allllways thinkin'. 

Tonight I'm going to go see Something Borrowed with my roomie, Kate. I'm ridiculously excited. First of all, I love rom-coms. They are my personal poison. I know as someone who has acted for most of her life that I should be pickier but I can't help it. I prefer to smile rather than cry and I prefer to feel light rather than heavy. Not that those moments don't have their place. But ya know, it's Friday night y'all.
PLUS, I read the book last year before I knew it was being made into a movie and I adored it. PLUS there are some cutie patooties in this movie (none as cute as you, Treasure.) Including John Krasinski. 


I love him. Funny will get you everywhere, boys.

Welllp, a midterm is calling my name.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

{As of late.}


dinner=grilled chicken, salad with rasberry cabernet dressing and a sweet potato. delish.

Reading/blogging nook. I don't even want to think about how much money I've spent on the magazines filling that darn thing.

The living room lookin' Springy.
Carnations can be pretty too, y'all.


Roomies.

 This is my friend Mack. He is my most loyal blog reader. Probably because he is a simple girl just like me <3. If only everyone could be as simple as us.

These are my friends Ian and Ty. I don't think they're very loyal blog readers, nor would I consider them to be simple girls, but they're pretty funny so I guess they can stay :).

Even the cheapest flowers at Kroger brighten up my day.


That's all folks. Enjoy this lovely evening!

P.S. When I make my pictures big like this it seems to complicate things. Why is my text all off centered? It's driving me flippin crazy and I can't look at it any longer. Good day.

{Morning, Morning!}

Breakfast and coffee with a side of House Beautiful.
(that's salsa on the eggs, incaseyouwerewondering)

It is so doggone dreary here. Cincinnasti has never looked nastier.

I'm going to try to make today productive anyway. Hopefully I'll check some items off of my to do list, get some homework done, and get in a good workout.  I also have a therapy appointment today, which I am very much looking forward to. I actually really love seeing my therapist. She's just so darn sweet, and I want to be her friend. That'd probs be weird though.

I've been avoiding my to do list for a couple of days even though I KNOW that actually getting things done that are on it will make me feel so much better in the end. And since I'm trying to stop giving into instant gratification, it's time to bite the bullet and just do it already.

Okay, y'all, sorry for blabbing about nothing but I just felt like poppin' in to say hello.
Hope everyone has a good day :)

{Sneaky Peak}




Better/more pictures to come!
I hadn't quite figured out my camera's settings yet when I took these which is why they seem a little dark and blah.


Happy Thursday :)

{Check, Check!}


I finally tried out the new frozen yogurt place up the street the other day.
One word: yummo. 
And only about $2.50!

Spring has been pretty busy the past couple of weeks which explains my lack of daily posts.
I have a huge midterm to study for tomorrow but I just couldn't wait another day to tell you guys the next thing that I'm checking off of my 25 before 25 list :).
But first you have to watch this video:


Thats right y'all. 
I'm off to the world of Disney!

Treasure's family invited me along on their trip and I feel SO lucky.
I distinctly remember watching that preview multiple times a day when I would watch my daily Disney movie (I was obsessed) and I can't believe I'm finally going to get to go.

I think I'm most excited about meeting all of the Disney chracters. Particularly the princesses. 
And Mickey, obviously. 

One small problem.
I'm terrified of roller coasters, y'all.
I had a horrifying experience on the Scooby Doo Ghoster Coaster when I was about 6 or 7 years old and it scarred me for life. 

I hope I can overcome my fear.
I can't go to DISNEY and not ride a coaster!
...can I?

{Check!}

I can't tell you how many posts I have sat down to write in this past week. I just can't seem to finish a single one. This is what happens when I've got too much going on. I get insane in the membrane and can't complete a single thought. My to-do list for today is intimidating me but I'm trying to just check off one thing at a time, instead of doing my usual method of half completing one of the tasks and moving on to the next one because it's just never rewarding to do all of that work but not be able to check them off your list. Oy.

However.

Speaking of lists.

I have been checking some items off of my 25 before 25 list that I'm so excited to finally tell you about.

I'm going to divide these things up into different posts so that my ADD brain doesn't get overwhelmed by all the things I want to say.

First of all, I finally bought a camera! Originally I really wanted to be one of the "cool" bloggers who had a digital SLR camera but honestly, y'all, I don't have the moolah nor the patience to figure out how the hay those things work. So instead, I went with the Nikon Coolpix P80.

I'm really, really happy with it so far. It just came in the mail yesterday so I'm still getting used to it but I think I made a good decision in choosing this kind of camera. I got a REALLY good deal on it on Amazon, and it still has a few manual options but it muchhh more beginner friendly for someone like me. Trust me yall, I tried to change something manually yesterday and my pictures were all out of whack. I think for now I'll stick with the auto settings. The camera is much smarter than I.

As soon as I'm finished washing my sheets I'll get a picture up of my room/apartment :)

Next up is two more items I'm checking off my 25 before 25 list, as well as a post about my birfday plans. Stay tuned ;).

{Life has been patiently waiting for me.}


Ever since seeing Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, I've been dieing to go to Greece. Judge me if you must, but nevertheless, doesn't that picture look dreamy?

Its days like this that I have so much I want to say to you, little blog,
but I just don't know where to begin.

I'm both completely content and completely anxious right now.
Does anyone know what I mean by that?

Maybe the words will come to me tomorrow.
For now, I hope you're all having a good start to your week. And also, you should all visit my sister's new blog, The Funnel of L-O-V-E. It's about her trials and lessons in relationships, and though I may be bias, I believe it's super smart and super relatable.
