Looking Forward To...

Popping in to share some things I'm looking forward to in the next few weeks!


+ My first Dance Performance since 2016. This semester I am performing in a jazz/hip-hop number with our school's new dance company and I am so excited! We have our showcase on Friday and I can't wait to get on stage again. A lot of my friends didn't even know that I used to dance for 16 years, so it will be really fun to share this part of my life with them.

+ Warmer Weather. It has snowed two times in the past three days in Louisville. It's just been a light dusting each night, but I still can't believe it. I'm ready for the 70 degrees days of February to return ASAP!

+ St. Patrick's Day. My Mom's side of the family is obsessed with St.Patrick's Day (Mostly because of my Grandpa Jim) so I can't wait to celebrate this weekend! A friend and I are planning on going out in the afternoon to avoid that craziness that goes on that night.

+ Meditating. I started the Headspace meditation app again today. I've started it in the past, but have had trouble sticking to it. I hope that I can keep a streak going through the first 10 days of the exercise. (Also hoping to read this book about meditating as soon as I get a chance!)

+ Outdoor Running. Back when it was really nice out in February, I was able to run outside a couple of times (and ended up injuring my foot). I can't wait for it to warm up again so that I can kick my training into high gear! (Hoping to run a half-marathon in April)

+ Reading. I finally finished a book over spring break, and I can't wait to finish a couple more up that I'm in the middle of. I don't really have much time to read until this weekend, so I will definitely be getting some done then.

+ Easter. I had such a great time at home last week for spring break, I can't wait to return back for Easter! There's just something about the fresh spring air in Chicago and Church on Easter Sunday dressed up with the entire town that makes me feel so happy! I haven't found my Easter dress yet, but I'm thinking something pink this year...

What are you looking forward to? Comment down below and let me know!

Nothing Like a Fresh Start

It's hard to believe that it has been so long since I have posted on here. I won't say the break was an intentional decision, but this blog definitely fell to the back burner last summer. A lot has happened since the last time I posted. A brief synopsis would be that I graduated from college with my bachelor's degree and applied to and enrolled in law school. Plenty of stories to share from the last year but I'll be saving those for another time. Photo by   Dominika Roseclay  from  Pexels I've been out of classes for close to a month now, and now that graduation festivities have finally died down and I've recovered from Senior Week, I'm bored. I've always been a bit of a reluctant workaholic. I procrastinate and complain constantly while I'm in school with "so much to do" but then when I have nothing to do, I'm beside myself with boredom and the lack of structure. I've been craving a creative outlet, and the logical choice for...

Five on Friday

I used to do this series almost weekly when I had my old blog, and I really liked being able to share a few random things each week. 1. This week was Rush Week for my Co-Ed Fraternity, and as Vice President of Membership, you can imagine that at times it was a little stressful. This semester we weren't expecting a huge pledge class (I had to majorly adjust my expectations after I set them much too high in the Fall Semester). I managed to get through the week pretty painlessly. 2. I got a couple of new pairs of jeans in from Abercrombie (Don't judge, they have the best jeans and fit me so well!) and am so obsessed with them! They're both on sale for under $40 right now. I got this distressed pair of boyfriend jeans in a size 27short, and this pair of ankle skinny jeans in a 28short. (I'm 5'5" and the "short" always look more flattering on me) 3. I've been having a really rough time falling asleep recently. Usually, I'm out befo...

5 random facts about me

Since I'm just starting out on this blog, I thought I would share 5 super random facts about me! You can learn more on my " about me " page, but I thought five random facts would be a fun way to introduce myself today. I'm a huge Chicago Blackhawks fan, and pride myself in being pretty knowledgable when it comes to Hockey as a sport. However, when it comes to other sports, I'd like to say I have a basic knowledge or understanding of the rules, but I may be giving myself too much credit in saying even that. The only country I've traveled to outside of the United States in Canada, but I love visiting there! I have family outside of Toronto, and have also visited Niagra Falls. It's one of my goals in the next few years to slowly explore more of the country with my family. In case you couldn't tell by my first two facts, my house is a total Winter Sport house (Can't wait for the Winter Olympics to begin next week!). We love to ski, snowm...
