Five Things

Eeeek! Sorry for the absence this past week. It was a busy one. I got a total of 3 hours of sleep on Wednesday and Thursday combined. D: It was bad. But anyway, this week should be much more relaxed AND this weekend I'm going to be going with my Art History class to New York City! I'm so excited. I can't wait.

In addition to that, here are five things that have been keeping me going. If you're new to this blog, these posts (inspired by Emily of Cupcakes and Cashmere) are just a compilation of five things (not just beauty) that have been making me happy/lifting my spirits lately. Without further ado...

{Getting my Birchbox early this month.}

{My best friend lately.}

{Braided headbands I got for Christmas.}

{Filling up my makeup bag but not having a physical makeup bag, any good rec's?}

{Making my first speed painting video. Speeding things up always turns out so cool.}

I hope you're having a great day, and have a lovely week ahead! What's been floating YOUR boat lately?

Five Things

It's been a while since my last Five Things post (...again), huh? I'm not sure why it took me this long to get one up the past two months, but well, here are a few things that are making me smile lately (in the midst of all the applying-to-college madness).

{My makeup drawers are messy for once.}

{Been listening to MIKA's new album non-stop.}

{Mmm, pita chips. Need I say more?}

{Trying to get some tips from the watercolor bible.}

{Been living in boots lately.}

So those are my "five things" as of late. I hope you're all having a lovely day. What are some things that have been tooting your horn lately?

Five Things

It's been a while since I last posted a 'Five Things' post, huh? Lately there have been a lot of things making me smile and that I've been enjoying on those dreary school days, which is great! So without further ado, here are five things that have been keeping me running.

{Filling up my empties bag.}

{A spunky little addition to my miniature figurines collection.}

{Using a museum ticket as my bookmark for Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky.}

{Receiving souvenirs from Hawaii and San Francisco -- been wearing the bracelet non-stop.}

{Getting blinded by my own nails.}

Well, that ends my post here today. Crime and Punishment is such a heart-wrenching book. It makes me want to scratch my face off...in a good way. It's so ajslsjdkslkkjs;;skk -- I can't explain it. Anyway, I hope your weekend has been going swellingly! What's been making you smile lately? :)

Five Things

Here are five things that have been floating my boat lately. The weather's been really hot, but thankfully not too humid. Good thing I've mastered the art of walking to work wearing a blazer in the heat. It's actually quite bearable if I walk slowly.

{Building my actually "mini" perfume collection.}

{Re-watching the first two seasons of my favorite show.}

{Getting really nice freebies from work -- that's real leather z0mg!}

{$1 cubicle snacks.}

{GPA satisfaction...finally!}

Five Things

The weather's back to being gloomy and rainy and miserable here. It was pouring all day yesterday. It was nice while it lasted, but come summer, I'll have my stunners on 24/7...hopefully! Here are a few things that have been brightening up my day(s) lately.

{Benefiting from my mom's unwanted GWP}

{My love with affair with creme brulee continues...}

{Halving a giant hamburger with my best friend}

{Cute little frosted glass containers from Nordstrom}

{Feeling like an adult using my leather satchel as a schoolbag}

I can't wait to get finals over with and to start my summer! I can feel the happy already. What has been making you smile lately? :)

Five Things

Introducing a new series called...Five Things! I always enjoyed her Five Things posts, so borrowing from Emily (of cupcakesandcashmere -- a brilliant lifestyle/fashion blog), from time to time instead of a "Monthly Favorites" post, I will be posting these showing 5 things that are currently floating my boat, whether they be about food, makeup, fashion, or life in general. That way they will be more sporadic/spontaneous and less limiting. They're quick, but so fun to read/look at. It's kind of like you're looking into my life from many fun, different angles (not in a creepy way).

So here they are in all of their glory...5 things.

{Light and sweet -- I'm ready for spring.}

{Spring 2012 J. Crew Catalog -- one of my favorite looks despite not being a fan of pink.}

{Pure happiness in a tea box, need I say more?}

{It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Nyan-cat! -- adorbz t-shirt I got for my birthday.}

{Sephora packages...no further explanation needed, right?}
