Friday Link-ups!

March 2, 2012

It is finally Friday!!! I have had a rough week, coming back from vacation and just generally being unmotivated to do anything I had to get done. I had so much homework to do and still have plenty that needs to be done. I had a little mini breakdown yesterday once I got home. I climbed into bed w/the lights off, got into the fetal position and whimpered for a little while. I must have gotten a good nap in because I woke up feeling a lot better. I am feeling kinda sickly today with a fever and a sore throat and I’m hoping it doesn’t get worse because A’s birthday is tomorrow and we have to celebrate!!!

So this is my Happy Birthday shout out to an amazing friend! 
I know I mention her a lot on here, she is a great person, an amazing friend and I don’t know what my life would have been like the last 4 years had I not met her! I know we have so many more fantastic years and adventures to get into!!! 


Now for a Friday Link-up! 

The Nail Files


over the past year I have finally gotten into painting my nails more and I love this link up! 

Purple & green together happen to my favorite colors so I decided to try this random nail thing! 
This polish actually doesn’t have a name. I picked it up at Five Below and even though its a cheap bottle I loved the color 🙂 


What are your nails wearing this week? 
Link up over at Fabulous but Evil



Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

Where O Where…& Link up!

February 29, 2012

I know I have been missing, I got back from Florida and even though I took Monday off to just lay around I couldn’t bring myself to do anything productive. I have so much catching up to do in the bloggy world! Here are some random tidbits from my trip!

1. Firemannnnnn, Firemann!! 
It can’t be good when a 9 year old tells you that you need a man…no excuse me she corrected me she said I need a Fireman. Still…you get my point.

2. Spaces….
The apartments in Florida are much larger than they are in Chicago, w/more amenities and cost much less. I saw some great places and got to see which neighborhoods are good and which I should avoid. This makes it so much more real…

3. Smiles all around…
I am realizing that not everyone is going to be happy with my move. The people closest to me are having a hard time with it and even though I totally understand I really wish there was more happiness surrounding it because I am terrified.

4.  Food…
I let my inner fat kid run rampant on this trip! On Friday I literally must have had about 4000+ calories in one day. Awful and yet so fantastic!!!

Deep Fried Salty dog w/bacon
German chocolate cake

5. Some pictures….

I don’t really take many pictures when I visit anymore unless we go out out since I have been there almost 2x a year for the last 3-4 years.

I need this for my room 🙂
