It's here!

This school year had a bit of a whirlwind start.. literally. Fay decided to set up camp in my quaint little college town for about a week, causing classes to be cancelled and providing time to catch up with good friends. The days spent indoors without a strict agenda provided much needed adjustment time. Something I never look forward to, but seem to be doing alot lately. I am not the biggest fan of change but I have come to realize that I am in a continual season of it. I am constantly adjusting to new surroundings,  and when I have a little extra time to do it, I feel more comfortable. So, even though it brought some rain and a few bad hair days and thankfully nothing worse, I think this little visit from Fay was a bit of a blessing in disguise. Now back to classes, homework, and 90 degree weather! 

Note:
 Jason is newest Bachelor! So, he wasn't my favorite this past season, but to see 25 women around my Jeremy may not be as entertaining to watch. Can't wait til January!

give me five

Five days left. Just five short days until I trade in my TV shows and pilates for classes and food that is not the best, I move from my comfy Parisian bedroom to a small (but bigger than last year) dorm. Five days until my sophomore year of college begins. I'm ready, but not yet. Just let me have my five days. I haven't begun to pack, and I don't have the yearning to learn thoughts in my head. But they will come, in five days... hopefully! 


On a lighter, less stressful note, my September Elle came in yesterday. Ok, so I know no one really cares, but hey, it's my blog right? It is over 600 pages long, aka, the biggest issue ever and Jessica Simpson is on the cover (of course I liked her better 3 years ago when she was the star of my favorite show and was still a pop princess but I'm not giving up on her completely) needless to say, I'm super excited. It will take me awhile to read it..hmm.. maybe around five days?

Dreams really do come true!

I don't even have words to express how perfect this is.

It's down to the last bits of summer. This means that these next two weeks will be spent making lists, re-organizing drawers, movie marathons, and scheduling final summer hangouts with "home friends".  The last parts of breaks are always bittersweet for me. I am ready for the news school year, but not quite ready for summer to become nothing more than a memory.

I watched a preview for The Real Housewives of Atlanta the other day. Not sure what I think. Anyone who knows me can tell you that I am quite a fan of The Real Housewives of Orange County. One could call it a guilty pleasure show. Personally, I find the materialism and obsession with physical appearance a bit repulsive, but at the same time find myself admiring the strength of the independent Californians. Naturally, I was very excited when I heard there would be a New York version, but was utterly disappointed when the women offered nothing more than the same materialism and appearance obsession as OC, but without the independence and strong work ethic. So now we are going to Atlanta. This could be good, I will give it a chance. Although I have a feeling I will be singing "wish they all could be California girls" the whole time.
