Hello once again!
I am finally on my summer break! I've been home for a few weeks now, and it's nice to finally be getting into the groove of working again. My next favorite part about moving back home is being able to organize things again. That is right, now that I am a college commuter, I no longer need to have 2 sets of everything. Nice to finally clean and organize and get rid of the things I just do not have room for!
Things so far have been going swimmingly, minus getting pneumonia and a slight cold. I have a lot of goals for this summer, and I am so excited to get to start some of them! A couple wonderful life updates:
1. Armoire is officially gone! Sold to family friends. I had HAD it with that thing. I cleaned and organized and donated so the darned thing would not be necessary. My room looks so much bigger and better now! Another reason for this was because my parents wanted me to have my grandmother's bedroom set, since mine was purchased at an auction and held no real meaning.
2. Pinterest. That is just my new jam. I can't get enough! I like it much better than Stumble-upon, because it is just so well organized. Here is a board for my crafts, here's my board for organization, x, y, and z. Follow my Pinterest! I have some sweet stuff up there!
3. From Pinterest, I have found someone who is one of my biggest inspirations! Her name is Jillian Owens, and she is a Refashionista, and her blog is right here!! I just love all the things she does with her thrift shop finds! She has inspired me to start refashioning my own clothing! I am very excited to start hacking away at my own pile of clothing to be refashed! (Sorry for all the '!!,' I just really am excited :-D)
4. Another thing to note: I love working hard and making money, and I love saving money. I truly hate spending it. This is where my "I can make that!" attitude comes from. If I think I can make it, I'm not going to buy it. Once again, Pinterest has been huge in this way. I see all the fashions I love, and I use what I already have to make my own!
5. From point 4, I've also been on a health food binge. The idea that there are chemicals in everything stress.me.out. So many chemicals in everything that we use everyday. Shampoo, lotion, food, bleh! It's too much for me. So I've been trying my very best to make things that I use everyday so one day I maybe won't get cancer. So for instance, today I made my very own moisturizer. Three simple ingredients, and it's actually edible! Best part, it probably cost me $1 in total!
So that is my big update! Hopefully my summer will be filled with many wonderful things!
Okay, I've rambled enough for now! Until next time!
