Weekly Goal 6

KICK MY FINALS' PATOOTIES

But seriously. I wanna kick some booty this week on my finals. I probably will not be posting hardly at all this week due to the fact that it is finals week & I am moving, so I'll be pretty busy, but I'll try to throw in a couple here & there.

Guess what! I get my Facebook, Twitter, & Pinterest back next week! :D

Oh, by the way... Weekly Goal 5

GET ENOUGH SLEEP

With finals coming up this one is going to be tricky, but I think that it will benefit me more with finals. {& it will get rid of some dark circles ;)}

On laughing

laugh [laf, lahf] 
verb (used without object)
1.to express mirth, pleasure, derision, or nervousness with an audible, vocal expulsion of air from the lungs that can range from a loud burst of sound to a series of quiet chuckles and is usually accompanied by characteristic facial and bodily movements.


I feel like laughing is one of the most important things we can do. Laugh at jokes, laugh at irony, but most of all laugh at yourself. 

So, everyone do me & yourself a favor & be sure to:

3 things


1. This week was extremely productive. Which is always nice. :)
2. Luke Bryan & Eric Church & all those awesome country artists that I used to hate. I'm kind of obsessed with them now. 
3. It's Friday. 'Nuff said. 
{& there is only a week left of school & then it's finals & then we're DONE!}


All of these things make me perrrdy happy. 
Happy Friday!

The Del

There is a strange man in the background in each of these pictures. Okay, well he's not strange per say. But he is indeed in the background of all of 'em. Haha
{Leggings: DEB, Cardigan: F21, Tank: Aeropostale, Necklace/Earrings: M's Clothing <---totally awesome store we found}

We went to one of our family's faaavorite spots in the world. The Hotel Del Coronado :)
It's a 124 year old hotel on Coronado Island. It's absolutely gorgeous. Seriously, I could live there & never complain about a single thing for the rest of my life. We have visited & stayed there many times in the past & this year we stayed in San Diego rather than Coronado Island, but we just had to visit The Del. 
I always feel fancy here ;)


We went to Moo Time, a.k.a. the most delicious ice cream place ever {or maybe it has something to do with eating it with my favorite people in my favorite place....maybe} 

I had dark chocolate & banana {nom nom nom!}

It was a super fun weekend & *drumroll, please* this was the last weekend of traveling for  hopefully a long time. Sounds silly, I mean I'm doing all these fun things & going to all these fun places & I'm complaining about it? Yep. I'm wiped out. Completely & totally drained from traveling. I'm pretty sure that combined I've spent like a week driving the past couple months. I'm absolutely thrilled to be staying home this coming weekend.

When it rains, it pours..well, at least in San Diego it does


{Button down & skirt: F21, Belt & long necklace: Thrifted, Sandals & Earrings : H&M, short 'L' necklace: Ever, Bracelets & watch: Walmart}

I know you can't tell in these pictures, {that's mostly because it hadn't really started yet} but it was absolutely pouring in San Diego on Friday. Seriously, like hurricane status. It was really cold & wet. Everything you'd expect on a vacation to Southern California, yes? {NOT!}
But anyway, these were taken in Old Town San Diego. We were planning to spend a lot more time there to shop & such but, let's get real, besides eating lunch, most of the time there was spent trying to find shelter from the rain.

Weekly Goal 4

TAKE MY VITAMINS EVERY DAY / DRINK MORE WATER

I really really really need to start doing this more regularly. I have been getting headaches & I've been cranky. Vitamins & water can most certainly fix this. I've always taken vitamins, but lately I haven't filled up my container hardly ever. So, time to be better about all this.

Packing List

I'm going to San Diego this weekend {Thursday-Sunday} for vacation with the fam! I'm an insane over-packer, I just always feel like I'll need way more than I actually will. {Or I think I will be changing 3 times a day} So, this is after reducing my luggage amount tremendously. Trust me, it was a lot more before I narrowed it down. Here is what I'm packing & I'm going to try to take pictures each day of what I end up wearing.

p.s. I forgot to take pictures of a couple pairs of sandals, & I figured I didn't need to take pictures of the three pairs of identical black leggings, but I will most certainly be wearing them all. :)

From left to right: F21, F21, H&M, Hollister, Thrifted

: Thrifted, LOFT, F21, American Eagle


: Ever, F21, Thrifted, Thrifted


: JC Penny, Vintage, Heavenly Couture

: Nike, Rue21, Vans, Charlotte Russe


I also brought a couple bathing suits {obviously} & those sandals & leggings I already talked about. So, we'll see if documenting my packing will help not bring so much every time I go somewhere! Haha

Lauren Conrad is on the cover of Glamour again. Ahh! My favorite magazine & my favorite celebrity! I simply must go get this issue. Like, immediately. 


Oh & summer is coming up! Yayayayayay! Amanda & I just put the deposit on our new apartment & we're so excited to move out of the dorms & into our own place! We'll be moving the weekend of May 5th. :)

Dear You,

"You" being my future husband/boyfriend/whatever.

I know. This is probably kind of an overdone sort of post for girls' blogs, but I've never actually written down any kind of list of what I want in a guy. But I was talking to my mom {quite awhile ago, actually} & she said that it actually is cool to visually see the kind of guy you want in your life & in your future. It feels silly to write it & post it on the internet because I am not anywhere close to looking for a husband or anything, but it might be a fun "exercise" to try, so here goes:

"Dear You,


So, You. Here are some qualities that I feel you either must possess or I would really love for you to possess:
-You've gotta be taller than me. Preferably a lot taller, but as long as you're taller then you'll do. ;)
-You can't be dramatic. I'm not incredibly dramatic myself considering I am a girl {& we're allowed to be!} so, for you to be dramatic would just be plain annoying.
-You should be someone I can be proud of. Someone that when I introduce you to people I want to brag about you & be proud that you're with me.
-I hope you'll be someone who won't argue with me & then stay mad. I'm an extremely forgiving person, so I am okay almost immediately after & if you stay mad for days, hours {minutes, even!} after the argument is over, I can't deal with that.
-I hope that maybe you'll be someone with brown hair & blue eyes.
-You will hopefully be someone who believes in the same things that I do.
-You've got to be someone who doesn't take me seriously, ever. I'm almost never serious. {When I am, you'll know}
-Somebody who understands that I laugh at almost everything. Even things that are not funny at all. I laugh all the time. Don't ask me why every time. Haha {<---see?}
-Someone who, no matter what happens {particularly fights} you will never sleep on the couch. Or leave during or after an argument {this goes along with staying mad}
-Someone who doesn't call me 'babe' or 'baby' <---BIGGEST PET PEEVE. {You can give me cute/funny pet names. That I like. Just please don't call me baby..unless you're joking, then it will be funny & okay}
-You should be somebody that can keep the PDA to a minimum. That stuff makes me uncomfortable. However, I don't mind a little bit so that people can still see that we are indeed together. {I wanna show you off a little bit}


I'm sure there's more & I may add to this list later, but until then. Here you go, husband/boyfriend/whatever.


Love, Lisa"

{via}


So there's probably one of the most different kind of posts I've ever written. I hope it's not too weird.
I hope everyone has a good weekend! 
Happy Easter!

Paint Tag

^ This one is super inappropriate, I know, but I have paint on my bum, so I feel like it's okay. 
So, as you can see: we played paint tag. Well, sorta. We started out playing tag & then just ended up throwing all the paint on each other & doing cartwheels. It was kind of awesome. :)
