Almost Spring Semester

Happy Monday! 
So after realizing that a lot of schools start again today, I thought about how lucky I am I still have another week at home and 2 more days of work. 
I kind of put school on the back burner of my mind for a while. With that being said, I finally checked my email and started doing some work for my online class. I'm actually excited for school to start, but I know I'm going to regret saying that a month into the semester! Also, once I go back to school, I'm going to try and cut down on how much coffee I drink, I'm nervous for that because I increased the amount of coffee I drink this winter break by almost double. 
Also, I can't wait to get back to Alpha Chi and start informal recruitment. I can't wait to see all the potential new members and to hang out with the girls more! 
I can't wait to see all my friends again and to get back into my regular routine. :) 
But for now, I will continue my unhealthy coffee drinking ways, relaxing at home, and finishing up my last two closing shifts at Caribou!

thankful

After not getting a lot of sleep last night, then going to a crazy painful ear doctors appointment, 
(where I found out I had a cyst in my ear, and had it removed), I ended up going to get coffee then walk around the mall with my two best friends. I then started thinking about how thankful I am for the things I have. I figured what better way to start my positive thinking than writing about it :) 
things I'm thankful for: 
1. my family, obviously, I'm very lucky to have the family I have <3 
2. my friends, the ones I have that I know I can count on to always be there, it took a while, but I found some of the good ones. 
3. my boyfriend, for the same reason above, I found a good one :) 
4. school, as much as I may complain about it, I love learning new things and I'm excited for the semesters to come. 
5. coffee, I drink it every day, I love the fresh ground, fresh brewed coffee.
6. I love working at a coffee shop as well. 
7. tea, something I've started to drink more lately and I'm hooked on Earl G 
8. books, i especially love my bookshelf and my kindle library, and I'm constantly looking for good new books to read! 
9. music, I love listening to music and I love finding new music to listen to, lately I've been listening to The Lumineers. 
10. netflix, seems silly, but it really is convenient to watch tv shows and movies instantly for a really cheap price. 
11. using crazy face masks with my sister, not sure exactly what is is she bought, but I love how it feels and it's really fun to do!
12. Alpha Chi Omega, I love my sorority, and I love everything it stands for. The girls are amazing and I'm so happy to be a part of something so great. 
13. and last but not least, God. Everyday I see some of the amazing things He does <3

Happy New Year!

Hey everyone! 
I hope you all had good new years and made some pretty awesome resolutions! 
I spent the new year with my 2 best friends, my wonderful boyfriend and some of his friends.


It was a great night and I had a lot of fun! 

As for a new years resolution, I always tend to make some unrealistic goal for myself. So this year I decided to do something a little different. Instead of making a goal to workout more, or eat healthier or some other standard resolution like that, my goal is to do at least one healthy thing for myself each day. Whether it be something physical, like working out or something mental, like not thinking something negative about myself, or even something like cleaning my room. I have to do something once a day. I figure that way it is something attainable, and easy to do each day for a year, and it's something positive I can do for myself! :) 

I haven't posted in a while, but basically the only things going on in my life is work and catching up with my family or with my TV shows. 

Oh I'm also on the hunt for a "new" used car! If anyone has any ideas please please please let me know! Thanks :)
