My Thursday and Friday

Sleeping in till 8:15 this morning felt wonderful!My body is so used to getting up at 5:40 every morning for the gym that it is impossible to sleep in till 9, but I hate sleeping in too late because I feel like half the day is wasted! 

But any-who..

Here's my last two days at a glance.

Yesterday in the midst of running errands, typing papers and creating power points, I stopped downtown to meet up with a close friend. A few days ago I remember reading this on Facebook:

Eat Sleep Play Beaufort is a legit source because I think it is actually done by the city of Beaufort so I knew that it had to be true.

So I hop out of the car, and the two cars beside me were on empty so I figured everyone got the memo that parking will be free for summer.

Wrong.

Me and the other two cars all had tickets. I was so confused because I thought it was free.

So I call the number on the back of the ticket and explain to her how parking was free and that I read it on Facebook. She put me on hold and  went and pulled the status up on Facebook where I got it. She comes back on the line and was like well I see where they said that but if you look closely it was on April 1st.

And I was like okay what does that have to do with the matter. And she was like it was an Aprils fool joke.

I just wanted to die, how embarrassing.

Long story short she dropped the ticket because she probably felt bad for my blond moment and before she hung up she said "Now don't believe everything you read on Facebook from now on."

I didn't know what to say besides thanking her and wishing her a Happy Easter.

Then I was off to the salon to get my hair highlighted for the first time ever.

I wanted to go a tad lighter but nothing too extreme because..well I was scared. I have a wedding that I am in next weekend and I knew I needed to spruce up the boring light brown color I had, so I bit the bullet and got an appointment.

 

Here's my OOTD yesterday

 

J-Crew top, Banana Republic white denim jean capris

For jewrely I kept it to a minimum with two Stella & Dot bracelets and MK watch

Today is surprisingly cool outside so jeans it was

AE dark skinny jeans, linen top to balance the jeans because hello-it is spring after-all, and old Target flats.

This weekend family is coming in from out of town for Easter and I am so excited to see everyone because it has been a few years since I have seen a few of them!

If I don't post before Sunday, hope everyone has a Happy Easter!

Tigertown Weekend Recap

 Hello everyone! I apologize for the lack of my posting last week. With it being my birthday week there was so much going on that time slipped away from me.

This weekend Michael and I drove to Clemson to visit with some friends! Here is my weekend though my iPhone pictures.

 Saturday we went for a 6 mile hike at Table Rock! It was so beautiful

 I highly recommend going here because there are so many different trails that suite everyone's level and they are realitively easy to navagate.

 As soon as we finished, we were dying of starvation becuase it was like 4:30 and we didn't eat before we left. Since we were so desperate we stopped at the best mexican resturant for chips and dip just to put food in our bellies! (Salsa and guac obviously doesn't photograph well!! haha)

Guacamole has never tasted so good!

Here is an OOTD:

 LOFT blouse, A&E jeans, MK riding boots, and MK watch.

(Side note, LOFT was having such a great deal this past week, highly recommend to check it out)

Here's the rest:

My friends who I stayed with surprised me on Friday when I walked into the apartment with balloons and cake! 

It was such a great weekend spent with the best people. I am so blessed to have the people I do in my life!

 Did everyone else have a great weekend?

OOTD and other ramblings

Hello! I can't believe it is Thursday already. Since classes have started I feel like I have no extra time to blog, read magazines, etc. I told myself that I was going to read a book a month this year..I don't know where I thought I was going to fit that into my schedule...

So I did receive my Instyle and I will do a recap post once I read it the second time. To be quite honest, I am not that impressed this this issue but I will save that for another post :) 

First I'll start with an OOTD from Sunday:

 

The lighting in my room is absolutely horrible for mirror pictures. And remember how I said all my OOTD's will be at the gym? Well the new gym doesn't have a full length mirror, which saddens me to no end..so I will try to figure out how OOTD's will be photographed during the week.

(This is about what my OOTD's would look like at the gym..no bueno)

   Sunday my Grandma, my mom and I went for a bike ride around the neighborhood. It was so nice out! It's so hard to believe that it is January because it has been about 70 degrees lately! Lovee it!

Moving on.

My computer finally decided that it will let me download music illegally again.  I am so excited because I need a new gym play-list really bad.

I am so obsessed with this song. I have it on repeat and keeps my energy up when doing cardio.

I am one of those people that listens to a song over and over again till I heard it 1,000 times then get sick of it in two weeks and never want to hear it again.

Also here is a purple christmas I bought for next year for $5.00!! I am so excited about it because it would look so adorable in my apartment in Clemson next year!

I couldn't take it out the box or it would of never got back in, but you get the picture :)

This weekend I might be going to Charleston to pick out a bridesmaid dress for my boyfriends, brother's wedding! They decided to have all the brides maids pick their own dress as long as it matches the color swatch and is above the knee. I think that is such a great idea because there's not one dress that looks good and is figure flattering on everyone!

Well I should pay attention to the professor..(I am sitting in Macroeconomics..bore)
