3 cheers for Friday: YAY, YAY, YAY :)
Since I don't have Fridays off this semester, I fully appreciate the hype about Fridays!
Anyway, I'm linking up with Lauren over at From My Grey Desk for
So here are my 5 favorite things from this past week:
(I'm gonna warn you now, my week consisted of a whole lot of school so nothing was super exciting. But hey, it's the little things that count right?!)
one. I started reading The Hunger Games. I was skeptical at first, but I have to admit...I'm hooked!
two. SOAPING! Seriously so awesome to do during my daily quiet time. I found it thanks to Erin over at Captivated by Grace. Here is the link she gave for explaining it a little more.

three. 98 days until graduation! Hallelujah. Seriously hoping I can make it until then - senioritis is kicking in already...
four. I got this new candle (Paradise Flower) from Target & I am obsessed. It smells fabulous (even when it's not lit) and it's a great color. Plus it's 1/2 the price of a Yankee Candle. Can't beat that!
five. My hair can sort of go in a ponytail without a headband! This is HUGE. I haven't had a real ponytail in about 4 years, and I'm trying so hard to grow my hair out. I mean I still have to load up on the bobby pins & hairspray, but hey...we're getting there ;)
Enjoy your Friday, friends :)
I have classes on Fridays this semester too! UGH. It was so nice last semester when my weekend started on Thursday.
ReplyDeleteYou will LOVE the Hunger Games I read them a while back and I seriously got through each of the books in like a day and half. SO GOOD.
I feel ya on the senioritis...all I want to do is blog, sleep, and do nothing :) hang in there!
ooo that candle looks amazing :) happy friday!
ReplyDeleteIt smells SO good! And I can smell it all over my apartment :)

Love Candles! :) When I had shorter hair I got so excited when I could put it in a pony tail! :) Even if it was kinda sorta!!
ReplyDeleteKinda sorta is a step toward "yay a real ponytail!" right?! lol
DeleteHave a happy Friday, girl!

Your hair will get there! I chopped mine up to my chin two years ago because it was so fried and it took me about a year and a half to grow it back. It won't be long before you are posting pics of you with long hair:)
