Happy Hump Day...

Woah! Can y'all believe it is only Wednesday? Time is going by so fast I feel like it is Friday and since finals are next week I have a to do list a mile long. I also have had every intention of blogging, but that obviously hasn't worked out.  However since my stress reliever is Pinterest what better way then to join this link up today.

Fill in the Blank Friday.

It's Friday! However I have a lunch date and papers and tests piling up. So what better then fill in the blank friday with Lauren @ The Little Things We Do. 

1.  When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is,   turn the alarm on my phone off and then check Facebook, email, twitter etc.  .

2.   I can hardly wait for   May 11th. Why? Because that means finals will be over and I will be headed back to the Pacific Northwest, I am only a little bit excited!!!

3.  The quickest way to my heart is     a venti skinny vanilla latte from Starbucks       because     Starbucks is my absolute favorite thing ever. My ears perk up when I hear the word and it just makes my whole day better .

4. A little known fact about me is that    I got my ears pierced when I was three months old. I think it's a Mexican thing, because a lot of my cousins had them pierced really young, but I've noticed that very few little caucasian girls have pierced ears...so maybe it's cultural .

5. The best part about my job is    that I don't have one. I kid. When I was doing intramurals it was that I got to be outside, watch a sport I love, and hangout and get to know some really cool people.

6. Something I just couldn't live without is    coffee or my cell phone. Both are daily necessities. 

7.  Something useful that I wish I knew how to do is   html/blog design. I just don't understand it at all. We did it in computer class in high school and I still don't get it at all, but I did design my current look and I am pretty proud of how it turned out.

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!

Thursdays Thoughts or Lack Of...

I feel like I am kind of starting over here on this blog. New look. New name. And many more improvements coming. I am so excited about it. Let me know what you think. Today I am playing along with Natasha at Schue Love for a little game. 

1. What is your profession? Currently just a student. Getting my degree in Elementary Education.
2. How would you describe your style? Classic, feminine, and a touch of laid back casual.
3. What one make-up product can you not live without? Mascara. Is always my go to when I want to wear just a little bit of makeup.
4. If you could be besties with one celebrity, who would it be? I am loving Rachel McAdams lately.  She just seems so down to earth and sincere.
5. What is your dream vacation? Somewhere that had amazing beaches, but also great food, culture, and shopping. I think Greece or France would be ideal for this.
6. What magazines do you subscribe to? Currently none except maybe a Seventeen from ages ago that gets sent to Oregon. However I read People, Cosmo, and Glamour on the regular.
7. If you could have a special talent {that you don't currently have}, what would it be?  Graphic design would be a great talent to have...especially now!  I would open my own Etsy Shop!
8. What is your favorite breakfast food?  Bacon and waffles is my favorite ever!
9. If you could do anything, what is your dream job? It is a toss up between opening up my own restaurant or event planning business. I think it would be awesome to do event planning and have a restaurant where I could hold events.
11. What is the best piece of advice you've ever received, and who gave it to you? This is a tough one. I cant think of it. Probably from my friend Erica about relationships being work and not comparing the past to the way things are changing in the present.

hope y'all enjoyed this. let me know if you decide to play a long too

Who I Am...

i am the lover of cheesy photo booth photos

I Am... excited for the way my life is going.

I Want... to be home and with my best friends. 

I Have... two weeks of school left until it is summer time!!!

I Wish... I knew what the future was going to hold.

I Hate... it when people are always late and call themself a friend, but aren't there to support that person.

I Fear... change. The unknown completly scares me.

I Hear... the the baseball commentators on the TV.

I Search.... for God's plan and the direction it is going to take me.

I Wonder... about absolutely everything at all times and what the future is going to be like.

I Regret... letting fear keep me from doing certain things.

I Love... my family and friends. 

I Ache... for people suffering through infertility, my heart aches so bad for them.

I Always... have the desire to shop.

I Usually...see the glass half full.

I Am Not... patient and that is something I am working on.

I Dance... usually only with my best friends, but a lot more often now just for fun.

I Sing… all the time especially when I am dancing.

I Never... pretend to be someone I am not.

I Rarely... do something spontaneous. 

I Cry... when I’m happy, sad, mad, irritated, stressed, excited, touched. Pretty basically I cry all the time.

I Am Not Always... confident in myself and the decisions I am making.

I Lose... it when I am homesick and want nothing more than to be home.

I'm Confused... as to what I am supposed to be doing with the rest of life.

I Need... a glass of wine nearly every time Bryan and I talk seriously about building our house.

I Should... be more confident in myself and the choices I make and how they will affect my future.

Barely Hanging On...

Wow. I am surprised to see y'all are still here. Excuse my recent absence. School and life have been crazy, but as soon as Spring Break is over I will be back. And maybe I will be able to blog before then too. For now though I am linking up for Fill in the Blank Friday.

1.  The highlight of my week was   having a Monday that was full of nothing but Target, food, friends, and work.

2.   If I had to classify my interior design aesthetic it would be   according to the quiz I took two days ago, Polished Classic. But I also think it is a little modern. However I can definitely agree with the Polished Classic.

3.  My first vehicle was   non existent. Random fact time...I used to be terrified of driving, talking panic attacks, so I still don't have my drivers license.

4. An item I need to have in my day in order to function is  my phone. It is my alarm clock, watch, connection to the world, and phone all in one.

5. My favorite way to waste time is  browsing Pinterest and finding new foodie blogs.

6. Right now I could really go for french fries from Red Robin or a taco salad from Blue        Taco. It is obviously dinner time.

7.  This weekend I will be  doing homework and getting ready for Spring Break!!! I cannot wait.
