Thursday Stuff.... and All

It’s so hard to believe that I have been home from school for 3 weeks.



Still haven’t done to much except I did finally get to go to a baseball game, but it was with 2 six year olds so....


Finally bought:


Finally bought, everyone is talking about it, and of course you always have to follow the crowd. 




Love his blog!



I leave tomorrow for a horse show for the weekend with one of the girls I babysit for, so I will be a little absent this weekend. But really it won’t be to different from lately since I really only seem to have to time to blog every now and again.



I also really want to bake these sometime next week:

Only Happen Once

Lately I have been seeing a lot of YOLO(you only live once) hashtags and such on twitter and Facebook. I could really care less about the whole YOLO thing except that it gets on my nerves when people put every aspect of their life online and put #YOLO after it. I’m pretty sure we all know that you only live once, your not a cat with nine lives.


Also, I find it hard to believe that people live such exciting lives. Actually it makes me feel a little inferior to them because if I outlined every step in my day it would look something like this:


  1. "Alarm woke me up and I couldn’t remember what day it was”#YOLO
  2. “Face wash got in eyes and it stings/burns/annoys me to death, it’s the last thing you want to start you morning off” #YOLO
  3. “Finally done getting ready for a day of doing absolutely nothing” #YOLO
  4. “ Unload dishwasher” #YOLO
  5. “Work out (sometimes)” #YOLO
  6. “ Laundry” #YOLO
  7. “ Lunch by myself” #YOLO
  8. “ Nap? I think so, getting up at 7 am is hard work” #YOLO
  9. “ Clean bird”#YOLO
  10. “Nothing for the rest of the evening” #YOLO


Jealous of my day to day life?


It looks like I need to do some more exciting living. Or just attempt to live more than once and just do it better the second time around.

Sorry to Say

Sometimes when talking to people they will start to tell me about things that I know nothing about or don’t really care about. So for future reference I came up with a list of things that I don’t really care to about.

  1. That you hate Facebook
  2. Your fav. color
  3. You hate having you picture taking
  4. How hard it is to plan your wedding
  5. weather
  6. Why you are such a rebel because you don’t watch tv
  7. Your sucky relationship
  8. Ugly things like clothes and nasty animals
  9. How expensive it is to be out of college
  10. Your fav. tv show except if it is the same as mine then we can talk about it all day
  11. My horoscope, unless it awesome, then I very much care about it
  12. How many miles you ran today or any day for that matter
  13. Etsy, UGH
  14. That the summer heat is getting to you
  15. Grammar, but I do hate people who use it incorrectly
  16. Why getting up early sucks
  17. How badly you want to travel
  18. Cartoons, especially adult cartoons
  19. Instagram
  20. Awesome art you find
  21. The hope that you get a summer tan
  22. How awesome you are because you eat organic food

Yep that’s a few things that I don't really care much about.

Vanka Vance

Happy Birthday!!



Today is my amazing friend Elizabeth Vance’s (aka Vanka Vance) birthday. 


Vanka and I have been friends since kindergarten, although from grades 3 till 9th we didn’t talk because we stopped going to the same school. But freshmen year of high school we had three classes together and we quickly became friends again, as if no time had passed.


Vanka is one of my funniest and craziest friends and I never have a dull moment when I am with her. She is leaving for London on Saturday and she is trusting Katie and I to get her to the airport on time. I am so jealous that she gets to spend an entire month in London, but I know that she will have tons of fun.

About Time

Well it’s been over two weeks.


Sorry for leaving you all for such a long time. 


If it makes you feel any better a lot has been going on in my life since I last blogged. 

  1. Semester finally ended
  2. Started doing work with girl scouts again
  3. Almost unpacked all of my college stuff, by almost I mean sort of maybe started
  4. Since coming home my body has refused to let me sleep in, 7 am is starting to get old
  5. Spent an awesome mother’s day with my amazing mom
  6. Making summer plans that I should definitely  maybe follow through with
  7. Finally saw Avengers. loved it


Yep that’s pretty much all I have been up to. 



Really there is no excuse for not blogging lately, all I can say is that I have been distracted by everything else going on in my life. 



Although I have been practicing making these:

 My versionish 



Oh and I may be a week behind but last week was national Etiquette Week. Obviously I will had major trouble celebrating/following this week due to the fact that I lack etiquette skills. But my friend Vanka Vance will probably enjoy knowing about this week.

Silver Snakes and Purple Parrots

Working the desk.


Killing Time.


Watching Hidden Temple!





Remember this?

I hadn’t thought about it in forever. 

Tuesday Lessons

So one more day down. 


You know those days when Life teaches you so much?



Yep, well this was one of those days for me.

  1. I have no abilities when it comes to using Smart Boards
  2. I need to make more progress on packing
  3. Blue tooth's suck. I thought someone was talking to me today but they were just talking on the phone
  4. I need to be more careful with my facial expressions, people can actually see them
  5. No matter how close to the trash can I am, I always miss it the first time
  6. For some of my residents it is difficult to remember to flush the toilet
  7. You can make rice crispy out of other cereal besides the original crispy. I don’ like the copy cats
  8. 1 hour naps make everything better
  9. My body refuses to wake up with my alarm. I consistently wake up 3 min. before my alarm goes off each morning 

Monday... Check.

Yesterday was a pretty great day. Well as great as any Monday can be.


1. Went to lunch with an awesome friend
2. Bought new nail polish colors
3. Got this movie:

4. Good news makes everything better
5. Basically did nothing all day which is a great feeling
6. One more day closer to going home. This is one of the first times in a long time that I actually can’t wait to leave school. It’s probably due to stress, but I usually hate having to leave my friends, but this year I am just looking forward to leaving.
