Oops

Guys. I am a really terrible blogger. I just go through these phases where it is a hassle or I am just not in the right mindset or I just don't have time. Well... I don't really feel like it now either but I am bored and stuff is happening.

So. I had a birthday... I like being 21. ERIN!!! Catch up to me and Lo so we can play like adults this summer!

a Mai Tai I ordered. legally. yeah!

a compilation of my birthday dinner and the boy who paid for it all

 

This weekend has had beautiful thunderstorms and I have played in them with friends!

When I came back to Evanston from Dallas we went to Dave & Busters for my first time and I hit jackpot on TWO games!

Ray and I did a puzzle. I forget how nice it is to sit down with no technology and just be with someone.

My easter basket had wine this year. JJ's had whiskey. We were both pleased.


So there are a bunch of pictures of my life. On top of that, I am applying to be both a tour guide and on DM exec right now so we will see what comes of that. And I think I caught y'all up on the world!

Back To Heavenston

Well... This long weekend has been lovely. I have gotten more sleep than I will probably get all quarter so that is an upside. Bonus, I got this dress yesterday... downside is mommy won't let me take it back to school because she thinks I will ruin it. So boo... But I also got a maxi dress and that is allowed so yay!

I packed today. i always seem to take back more than I bring home so I am taking back two bags instead of one... oops...kinda... I tried packing in a new style. Here is a video from the interwebs that demonstrates it. I'm not sure if it really worked or if the amount of clothes I was packing would've fit anyway. But I am sticking to it!

I painted my nails:

And here is a pic of my haircuts:

Looks like I'm ready to head home!!! Just got to make my bed...

Big D

I would be lying if I said that I wasn't bummed that my Disney World spring break plans had to be bailed on because of poor girl problems but the wonder that is home is SO good.

First off, I get my hair done tomorrow which is the best feeling after a Chicago winter. I know Elsa will be mad at me and yell about taking better care of it and trimming it more often but the truth is she loves my loyalty to her the same way I love that I barely have to say anything to her for her to get my hair right. It is the mutual understanding that my hair has to be one way and that is that.

Secondly, I will eventually see Lauren and Erin. While napping won out today... I will win tomorrow!!!

Thirdly, new bras. Bras are expensive. My parents consider bras a necessity. Therefore, I get to buy new ones with them so it is practically like getting bras for free!!! Also, I have actually been feeling some back pain from the lack of support my old ones have been giving me.

Fourthly, family. Mexican food is my family's way of telling me they love me. So with each bite of my Mariano's steak fajitas I could feel the love.

Lastly, crafts, Crafts with glitter. Crafts with sorority letters. Crafts.

Why does photo booth only print in reverse?!?!

this is for my birthday which is coming up. made on an old button from an old friend from our old high school drill team...

One heart. One love. One dream.

I have never been more overwhelmed in my life. There are too many people to thank for this experience. I am going to miss it so much. It has been so much of my last 4 months. Below is a picture of Ned and I after the final total was revealed and we had raised over $1.1 million for those kids. They have such a spark that I wish I saw in more people nowadays. I love what Dance Marathon stands for and what it does for this university. Thank you Exec, DM and Ned for being with me for 30+ hours, I love y'all!

IT. IS. HERE.

Ladies and Gentlemen! (Mostly ladies who read this right?) Dance Marathon starts at 6:00PM TOMORROW!!!! From 6PM until 1AM on Sunday.... I WILL BE DANCING! That's about all I have....

Here We Go

Dance Marathon is 9 days away! It is quickly approaching and as I am supposed to be catching up on sleep, I am actually exhausting myself doing stuff for DM. Ned and I have been spending hours filming the videos that will play to motivate the dancers. This past Saturday we spent from 9am-7pm filming three different videos and at the end of it all, I passed out for the next 16 hours. We filmed this morning again but it was pretty awesome. One of the concepts for our videos included a mob of people walking down Sheridan road singing MmmBop. And it happened and it was cool! I will definitely work on posting the links to those videos once they go up!

Here was our first one that we used for Dancer Kickoff!

February

I have been on a blog hiatus for a while. I just couldn't find the motivation to write for a while when in my spare time all I wanted to do was sleep. Well... I'm back.

My show is done y'all! Pink Milk was beautiful and it all came together in the end and was a really important event on campus. We even had a beautiful poster!

Pretty right? I also finally had time to wake up and do my make up today and shave my legs and do those sticky on nail things... pretty much the greatest discovery ever. They are so easy to use and the lack of dry time means that I can have pretty nails all the time!!!!

I chose this heart pattern for Valentine's day which I will actually be spending with someone for the first time I think ever... Do I know what I'm getting the boyfriend? Nope. Probably craft something in reality because I don't have the time to order anything. Do y'all have any ideas?
