What We Had of Cold Weather


sweater: goodwill, jeans: f21, boots: gojane belt: target

Seriously the comfiest sweater ever. Oversized, soft, and snuggly. I do need to take the arms in, though. They’re a bit saggy. I wore this on the only cold day we’ve had since the spring. Clearly it was not here to stay. I’m so tired of trying to find cool outfits to wear! Boo, heat!

Jammin’


shirt: passion, skirt: f21, tights: f21, boots: gojane

This outfit was described as “jammin’” to me today. I thought that was totally awesome.

This day.. wow. It was Monday.

This morning my 8am was cancelled and I have no 9am. In theory, I didn’t have to be in Tyler until 10. We spent all day at my parents’ yesterday and weren’t home until 11 that night. I packed my lunch, got my books together, and laid out an outfit for Monday morning. I was exhausted. I set my alarm and got up at 6.40. Drove all the way to Tyler, walked into the music building. Lights were off, no one was in the lobby and I was alone. I wanted to cry. I had just driven an hour–exhausted, mind you– and I didn’t even have class. I called Jason and decided to drive back home and take a nap. I barely made it home without falling asleep. I took a 45 minute nap, made the trek back to Tyler for choir only to find that no one was waiting for choir. “Duh,” I remembered. We had planned to do a flash mob in the cafeteria that day. Again, I wanted to cry. Really?! Twice in one day?

(The flash mob was awesome, btw. We did a gospel piece and everyone videoed us. It was cool.)

After walking back to my car, I ate lunch and talked to Jason for about ten minutes before heading into diction. I didn’t look at the music for my last class so I was totally clueless on what we were talking about. Thankfully, I wasn’t called on to answer any questions. FINALLY, I came home, started dinner and watched game five of the world series. (Go Rangers!)

Whew. Any of you ever have a Monday like this? Or any other day?

Awkward and Awesome

Yay, Thursday! This week has been especially easy. (I always wish I had something more exciting to share than random chit chat, but, alas. My life isn’t that exciting. Yet.)

-(Here you go, Kait.) There’s this guy at school. How can I describe this objectively.. His mustache is long, thin, and well, it really creeps us out. Note that there is no accompanying beard. Just the mustache. Like it’s protecting his lip. Please. Grow a beard to accompany your mustache, men.

-This. WEATHER. Seriously. Take me camping. NOW.
-Wearing a sweater two days in a row. Feels good to be home.
-Going to my little sister’s game tonight to see her play in the band and dance at halftime! Go Rudy!
-Eating with my family after said game.
-Uh, we got free cake at school today. (Kait, you totally missed it. Way to miss diction!) It. was. delicious. Thanks, band, for having a good concert to deserve this cake so us vocal majors could mooch off of you. (As soon as I ate the cake- I left. Is that bad?)
-Going grocery shopping this weekend. It’s odd how much I love doing that.
-Making plans to park downtown and walk around on Saturday morning. Mmm.. coffee shall be had. And it will be good unto my belly.
-One day I will own you iPhone 4s. Anyone wanna buy a 3g when that day comes? 🙂
-This week. After the CUUHHRAZZZYYY one I had last week I have little to no assignments this week. Oh, and my least favorite class is cancelled the rest of the week. Weeee!

Wow, that was a lot of awesome. Anyone have anything worse than a creeperstache they wanna share? Please do it! I need to laugh at your pain.

PS. Jason’s aunt kindly pointed this out from my post the other day. No, that “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” book is not an announcement. Trust me. I won’t be able to contain my excitement when that day comes for us! Ok. Now, give me your awkward.

Is It Bad?


dress: old navy, tights: f21, shoes: f21, belt: target

This is my very favorite dress. I got it on super sale. I only wish that it was a few inches longer so I didn’t always have to wear tights with it. This was one of my favorite outfits though!

Last night a CRAAZY storm ran through at about 2 am. I heard a loud crash at about 2.18 that woke me up and made Jason ask if I was okay, hah. When I got up this morning I saw that our neighbor’s tree was split in half. All of the branches were just lying on the ground. Is it bad if I ask them if I could have a big hunk to use as a side table?

Happy Wednesday!

My New Favorite Shirt


top: goodwill, jeans: AE, wedges: target, watch: found in our house

This is my new favorite shirt. Found at the goodwill. The goodwill in our town is nestled in downtown and it’s pretty cozy as far as goodwills go. If you follow me on Twitter you know that when I bought this shirt it was the first time I’d been shopping in three months. It felt good!

I wore these shoes all day at school Monday. Since they’re only about 3 inches I didn’t think it’d be so bad. But curse that Mossimo brand, for some reason they don’t have much give in the stretch department. So when I went out to my car for lunch (yeah, I eat in my car. every. day.) I took my shoes off. As I was talking to Jason on the phone I happened to look down at my feet. Wait. What’s tha- BLOOD! One of my toes was covered in dried blood. Since-this is embarrassing- I don’t (how should I say this) give my toes the attention they deserve (ie: cut them on a regular basis) this particular toenail was pushed up against the inside of my shoe and nearly ripped the whole nail off.

(If my aunts are reading this, it’s obvious I didn’t heed your advice from the night before my wedding. HAHA! :))

I got home and tended to my nails. Happy ending. 🙂

Hope you all are having a good day!

Our Weekend

We laid low this weekend and it was glorious. After a three month shopping freeze (for me) I finally got to shop with my birthday money. It was just nice to get out of the house. It feels like we’ve been on house arrest since school started in August. That’s the price you pay, I guess, for a degree. Blahh.

We decided to visit Green Acres Baptist Church yesterday morning. After driving to the wrong campus, we finally made it. Afterwards, I had to make a trip to Target to pick up printer ink and a binder for school. When we came out we saw this parked next to our car.

The most adorable old mini cooper! It was English and everything! Even the steering wheel was on the right side and there was an adorable long, skinny license plate. I couldn’t resist taking a picture. If you look closely, all the windows are cracked open. No A/C. Yuck! Tis adorable nonetheless. 🙂

And just for fun, here’s a picture of the dark, rainy sky on my way to school one morning last week.

 

How was your weekend?
