First Day of Class

Yesterday was my first day of classes for the spring semester! I am a nerd I suppose, but I always get really exited for the first day of classes. Monday, I spent the day organizing my anatomy notes and picking out which notebooks I would use for each of my new classes. I just love stuff like that. Then I spent some time deciding what I wanted to wear for the first day (like a little kid! ha ha), and I am pretty happy with what I chose. 

Over winter break I kept bothering my mom to take me to the eye doctor (Why I couldn't take myself you ask? I don't have a car) and so finally a few days before break was over, she took me. The plan was that we would go to the eye doctor, and then go out to dinner. Well you see, my step dad is on this really intense diet where dinner is the only real meal he eats (everything is bar and shake supplements), so while I was picking out glasses, my mom kept rushing me because my stepdad was hungry, and now I am not sure how I feel about the frames I ended up with. I personally feel that they are too big for my face. The eye doctor has a 30 day return policy, so I might go over the weekend and try on a few other pairs. Can I get some honest opinions on these bad boys?

Anyway, back to my first day of class. It was such an exhausting day! My first class was at 9:15am, and I didn't finish with class till 9:30 pm. I spent a lot of the day going to classes that I am not even sure I am going to keep in my schedule. I figured I could go to the class and then decide. I went to this one Anthropology class called Women in Writing Culture. I was planning on dropping it, but the class actually seemed pretty cool. We watched a moving on Margret Mead that I really enjoyed! Would 19 credits this semester be a really bad idea? Probably. I have the day off today, so I am going to go and apply for a job at some places. If I get a job, I will drop the class. If I don't get a job, I will keep it. That sounds like a pretty good deciding factor, right?

Anyone else experiencing the fun-ness that is going back to school?

Girls, just want to have fun

These pictures suck because they were taken from my webcam, but whatevz. I just have to say, playing dress up when no one is home is pretty much the funnest thing ever. Except for the fact that now I have a ton of clothes to put away. 

I realized that I really love wearing things that make me feel really good. And I also realize that different outfits make me feel ready for different things. Its hard to explain. In some of these outfits I felt incredibly sexy, and in others I felt ready to walk through the city. I usually just stick to the basics; a v-neck and some form of denim. But fooling around with other things and changing it up was really fun. 

Also, even though she doesn't read this, Happy Birthday Megan!

Fireworks - little explosions in the sky

So I wasn't planning on doing another blog post until this weekend probably (after my stay in New Brunswick and the 4th of July party I am going to!!!!!), but then yesterday my friends and I went to see the fireworks that happen in the town next to us every year. As I was waiting outside for my friends, I decided to try and take some outfit shots using my stepdad's car as a makeshift tripod. And well, I liked the way the pictures came out and I know I'd never post them if I waited. Anyways, going to the fireworks with my friends was so nice - it was like a little outing for the girls. I really enjoyed seeing everyone. After the fireworks we went to Applebee's for half apps, and we saw so many people from our town which I hated. But hey, it was a pretty nice night!

The small things

The weather the past two days has been so freaking lovely! Yesterday I sat outside and ate lunch and just people watched. It was great. It was so nice to be outside for a while; recently I feel like all the time I spend outside is just from walking to class to class. Back when I lived at home, my friends and I would go for walks all the time, plus Maria and I had a 20 minute walk to and from school. I definitely want to try and incorporate more walking into my life. Its such an easy and leisurely way to burn more calories, plus I could really used the serotonin!

Another thing that has been going on in my life; recently I have been feeling like I have no sense of style. I mean sure, I don't dress poorly, but there is nothing particularly lovely about the way that I dress. I am almost always wearing skinny jeans, some sort of basic top and a cute pair of shoes. I don't look baddd, but I want to develop really great style. I just don't know where to begin! Here are some styles I have saved on my computer that I am particularly fond of

There are so many others that I love, I just can't find them right now! So this weekend I plan on doing some damage at the mall. But another thing that I have been hating is my hair. I need to learn how to style these lovely locks. That however, I will save for another post!
