I Don't Know You At All

Where did this week go? I'm ready for weekend. I plan on checking out a few parties and taking a break from exams and homework. Also, I did pass my math test this week. I tried to hold back my tears, last week after failing two quizzes. I told my family my discouragements about this class. I never felt so relieved after . I really need to pass this class to graduate next spring. I really wish I could take a small trip. I'm constantly looking for good travel deals. I'm surprised how well the photos turned out, I only had a few minutes before running to class.

I felt the need to reward myself after working so hard this month. It's time to go shopping! Now I found two beautiful pieces this week. This gorgeous thick knit striped and metallic sweater from Ann Taylor and these perfect leopard heels. They're not too high to wear to class! This is such a comfy outfit for those cool days that nobody has an idea to wear. I

I would love to find some more sweaters like the one above. Sigh, any suggestions for around the internet? I already need to wear layers and boots. I already see the snowfall around the country. It's coming soon!
Have a fun Halloween weekend! Be safe and eat lots of candy!

Mermaid Costume

I had a dream about being a mermaid the other night. Sounds like a lovely idea for Halloween, right? Well when I google mermaid, I saw some creative ideas for Ariel, my favorite Disney Princess. I wanted to avoid the cliche. Also, I hate all those cheesy mermaid costume. I decided that I shall find my inspiration via, polyvore. I felt so drawn to this idea of wearing blues and greens. I imagine, draping myself in seashells and sheer fabrics. I might not sew anything but I'm going to find some body paint and glitter to add more dimension. It should be a fun night.

Blue Jeans

Hello dear readers, my goodness it's been a whole week. But I appreciated reading all your comments. I didn't think I would get so many. Thanks for cheering me up!  Oh, I really should be studying for midterms right now. I just have a problem focusing on one topic. Much of my time is spent is setting my books near the computer, so other people think I'm studying. 

I hate being all stressed out.  I was so occupied during the weekend, studying for a math test.  I just had the chance to snap a few photos during Saturday Brunch at Lisa's Radial Cafe in Omaha. I chose their sensational Stuffed French Toast. They filled it with pumpkin and cream cheese. I shared it with a plate of Egg's Benedict's with my mom but I really didn't want to give up the second part. Also they gave me the choice of coffee or hot cocoa. I went with the hot cocoa. I love how they made it. It reminded me when my mom would give my siblings and I mugs of hot cocoa when we arrived home after school in the winter/ fall.

I hope everyone has an amazing week. Time for me to hit the books and study hard.

Golden Days

I'm finally back!  I feel like I'm almost never home. Either I'm working or in a classroom. It was wonderful to get outside of my routine. I felt like staying home this weekend. Just time to curl up on the sofa and watch a few flicks. Yay!

Last weekend, I saw the beauty of the country side. I would would be so comfortable to country living, if I had reliable transportation and frequently visited the city. According to the people I talked to along the way and back, Omaha be would such a challenge and they would never move to such a large community. I giggled because I had to sympathize with their mindset of the about lifestyle large city. I went inside this country store that sold things like camo hunting gear and yummy fudge. I just had to take photos of the animal displays.  It's so creepy but that's one of the reasons I love it.

I have a weakness for small towns. I love the quaint stores and cozy cafes. I use to dream about moving into a small town and becoming friends with the whole town. But I love living in a city. It's easy to move around here and I love the diversity in my area. Also I'm constantly finding a new hangout or local treasure. So my dear readers, what would you prefer the peace and tranquity of a country town or the constantly changing city?
