i'm bi-winning

okay okay i'm back! I know that I have been seriously neglecting my tiny segment of the blogosphere and I'm really sorry for that. Another thing that I'm not sorry for? Not doing that 30 day challenge anymore. It was kind of cramping my style so sorry I'm not sorry. I'm sure you guys will really miss it....not.

I honestly had more work last week than I've had all semester. To be fair, I didn't have THAT much comparatively but since I've had pretty much all 100 level courses senior year, I've kind of forgotten how to do real work. But not to worry, all that nonsense is done for a while. This is my last week of classes before Spring Break and I'm pumped! I don't actually have any plans except to sleep lots, eat more and catch up on my shows but really...what else does a girl need? Honestly, I've always wanted to do one of those stupid stereotypical spring breaks but I never actually got around to it so whatever haha.

I have been playing this song on REPEAT for the past two weeks. The video is super weird but I think I kind of like it....don't judge. (although those last 3 seconds are realllll strange...you can judge that part)


I promise that I'll be posting more often so don't hate me please!

uno dos tres cuatro CINCO CINCO seis

It's day numero cinco of my 30 Day Photo Challenge and I'm supposed to post a picture of my most favoritest memory evah. Only one problem. How in the WORLD am I supposed to narrow down 21 years of my life into one single image? So in a way to get around that silly little rule, I am going to post a picture of the place my favorite memories have come from.

My college campus! Duh. It's almost impossible to pick one singular moment of my life that I could happily repeat forever but I know that I would happily redo the last few years here at school over and over again. I know that a lot of my classmates are over the tiny microcosm that is this school (we don't call it Dickinson High School for nothing) but I would probably happily do another year. 
 This is my favorite place on campus...Morgan Field. How collegiate does this look?
Perfect for laying out on nice days or snowball fights or just hanging out.

oh noooooo

AH! You guys! It's day 4 of my 30 Day Photo Challenge and I already messed up! I was supposed to post a picture of my night but I totally forgot to take a picture earlier so I'm just going to post pictures of things that relate to my night.



Tonight my sorority had a workshop with one of the professors on campus. It would have made such a nice picture if I could have gotten a shot of all 70 girls sitting on the floor of a classroom haha. My roommate and I were actually a little bit late to the meeting because although we thought that we would have enough time to grab dinner before, we totally did not. We had gone shopping earlier to try and find something to wear to all these cocktails this week but we were sadly disappointed. It kind of super sucks not having a mall nearby but I did manage to snag this fantastic maxi dress that I'm really super excited about!

it's sometimes sunny in carlisle

The beautiful weather we had on Friday was such a tease! Right now, it's like pouring snow outside and I could not be any less happy about it (okay, that's a lie. I would be way less happy if I had to dress up today for my sorority). But, hello silver lining! I got to wear my Bean boots for the first time today and I am in hearts with them already. They're actually really comfortable and functional. I can totally dig it. I have 3 cocktail attired functions this week and I am like freaking out about it right because I fully do not have outfits to wear for these things. Okay let's be honest. I probably have things to wear but I'm in the mode where you don't like anything in your closet and you think everything looks stupid so I'm kind of struggling right now. Any suggestions?

So today's day 3 of the 30 Day Photo Challenge and I'm supposed to post a picture of the cast of my favorite tv show. Normally this wouldn't be a problem but I'm like really torn right about what to put so I'll give you two pictures.

 It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
A group of friends own a bar in Philadelphia and get into the most ridiculous situations imaginable. Most shows try to have nice happy endings where all the loose ends are tied up; this is not one of those shows. I mean, yeah, the endings are happy but the characters are usually in the exact same place at the end as they are at the beginning. It is literally one of the funniest shows in the entire universe. Like I bet aliens see this stuff in outer space and think that Earthlings are the greatest, most humorous people alive. Although if this is the only show that they're watching then they also think that we are terrible, selfish, self-centered individuals with absolutely no morals but hey....you win some, you lose some. This is the only show that I have always made a point to watch every week on TV and God forbid someone try to talk to me when this is on because I will kill them.

But since It's Always Sunny (as I fondly call it) is currently between seasons, its time slot on FX has been taken over by (drum roll please)....

Archer. I love Archer. I may even love Archer more than I love the gang on Sunny. This show is about a secret service agent and....yeah, I really don't even know how to describe it. You just need to watch it. So go do that. Now. Bye!

it's like mixing apples and oranges

I had such an iiiiinteresting weekend...I still can't decide if I enjoyed it or not though. I did the usual weekend activities but it just seemed a little off this time. Whateva. I have gotten, oh I don't know, about ZERO percent of my schoolwork done this weekend. I just couldn't be a productive member of society if I tried right now. So instead of using Saturday afternoon to study for my upcoming test, I spent way too much time doing my nails.



Friday was absolutely GORGEOUS. 65 degrees in the middle of February? Why, yes please! I fully took advantage of the situation by wearing a skirt without tights for the first time in a really long time and I know that mixing patterns is like a really sensitive subject with people but I absolutely love doing it. On Friday, I successfully incorporated stripes and polka dots in a particularly aesthetically pleasing way if I do say so myself (hint: I do). The key is really keeping a consistent color scheme going on.

tank - charles nolan; skirt - j.crew; cardigan - theory; boots - frye

And in keeping with my 30 Day Photo Challenge, here's my picture for day numero dos. 
senior year of high school. don't judge.
Today's rule was to post a picture of you and the person that you've been closest with for the longest and this, my dear followers, is my best friend from high school. Given that I move around so much, I'm actually really terrible at keeping in touch with people and this is actually one of the few that I've ever actually succeeded with. We haven't actually gotten a chance to hang out together in years since he goes to school in Texas and I'm obviously in Maryland and Pennsylvania but we text each other pretty frequently so it's all good. Hi Bernard!
