My dresses haven't arrived...

and I'm freaking out! It's been two weeks since the shipping date. I've called ASOS and they've told me to wait a few more days, and then call back. Ugh.

On a different note, spring break has come and gone and now I'm back at school for my first week of classes. I'm actually excited about this quarter because I've flexed my awesome scheduling skills and only have classes two days a week! This'll be my final quarter at the university!!!

And... I'M GOING TO LONDON DURING THE SUMMER! YAY! I bought my tickets during spring break. I'll be studying Shakespeare. It's the perfect way to end college.

And finally, the song that's been stuck in my head - hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

The Ting Tings - Be The One

Work [it]!

This week is probably one of the worst weeks I've had to endure this quarter and possibly throughout my entire college career. I have SO MUCH WORK!!! To give you a little taste of what's to come, I have a midterm, proposal, and presentation due tomorrow (which I have not worked on because I've had other stuff due this week). I have an English paper due Friday! And a quiz TODAY (which I' m sure I will utterly fail since I've had no time to do the reading)! The horror...

Saturday - Taking Back What's Ours!

Remember Saturdays as a kid? Watching Saturday morning cartoons til your brain hurt, getting a sugar rush from all those sweets, playing with the neighborhood kids - that's what Saturdays used to be made of.

Why should kids have all the fun?

Today, my roommate and I managed to have a fun-filled Saturday that was reminiscent of those childhood memories - even though we really didn't aim for that, it somehow happened. I guess life's simplest pleasures can also be its sweetest.

It started with lunch with a friend - homemade tamales! YUM! But first, we've got to bring dessert! Hence, a trip to Saffron & Rose Ice Cream to pick up a pint. At the recommendation of my roommate, I sampled the rose water-pistachio-saffron flavor and the cucumber flavor, and both did not disappoint!



And after lunch, I decided I wanted to take some pictures of our outfits at the park and maybe start a blog look book of our outfits - and maybe in a few months or so, we'll be able to see how our style has transformed! So here's to the first post of our outfits!




My Outfit:
striped cardigan - Madewell
striped tunic - Madewell (which I had bought last post)
black skirt - American Apparel
beaded necklace - Promod (bought in France)
black leather backpack - Gap

My Friend's Outfit (I'll call her A):
white shawl - Guess
yellow tiered dress - blu heaven
white sandals - Mila Paoli
silver cross - from her grandmother in Russia
coral purse - Franco Sarto

In place of Saturday morning cartoons, we watched an onslaught of addictive TLC shows - 17 Kids and Counting and (one of my favorites!) Jon & Kate Plus 8. Kate's looking more strung out than ever in her new home.

THE END!
