Back To School, Back to Life

Hello once again, I'm constantly running in and out of my house. Just so excited and relieved to begin my last semester! Finally got a few things for class besides books and pens. Although, I do love stationary. Once again, I picked out a few cute notebooks. Most formal assignments are submitted electronically, so I barely worry about what I scribble down. My notes are so poorly written and I tend to wander off and start to doodle in my note books. 

I will try to keep posting on a weekly basis. It really saddens me to have make a small sacrifice. But I'm not making any sacrifice with my wallet. Besides spending money on books and supplies. I walked in to the nearest Marshals and found so many cool items for class and a few fabulous and chic clothes for a girl on a budget. I have an addiction to that store. Happy weekend and take care dear readers!

Ready To Start

I feel like trying some new things out to see if can try to write a post every day this week. All over the TV, the  commercials are talking about back-to-school, I'm getting ready right now. I'm such a stereotypical nerd. I feel so fired up talking about school supplies; smooth pens,  the smell of notebooks, finding out the best deals off amazon for my college textbooks, stocking  up on pain medicine for those countless headaches.
Of course, I would never neglect the best part of back-to-school shopping. Here are some essentials to sweeten of the start of the new year.

1. Large tote for carrying around your books, notebooks, pens, pads, or whatever else you can't live without.  I would not buy any cheap bag for the the year. You want something that will last all the bumps. I can't not emphasis this enough that cute canvas tote from Target will not last three months at university. Or if you worry about back problems, check out urban outfitters or ASOS  for cute backpack options.

2. Comfy, Flat Shoes. I understand that some girls have the endurance to wear 5 inches and above all day but dearies think about all those icy steps, possibly running late to class exams or trying to catch up with the hot guy in Spanish, do you honestly think you want to be wearing a pair of Lita boots? I honestly believe that heels are classic and timeless but there's a time and place for everything.  Flats are way more practical for when you have to get across a busy campus in 15 minutes or less. Personally, I plan on getting a pair of TOMS shoes, for the new school year. Also, who can't resit supporting such a wonderful cause.

3. Pens and Paper, it's crazy the amount of time students spend on their computer. It's okay to use for taking notes in big lectures. Rather when in a more intimate class, I bet the professor would gather see their students engaged then staring at a screen. So many beautiful choices for a notebooks, and I really do not need to post any suggestion but here are my favorite pens EVER! So many colors and perfect for small highlights and organizing your day-planner.

I hope some of your girls that are going back dominate the school this year. I'm ready to check out some more back to school basics. It's the weekend now and I'm going shopping!

So Long Summer

 Finally, the first day of classes have arrived. It's unavoidable for most of us. It's kind of sad but refreshing. I'm not saying that I want to spend my days in a small, badly lit lecture; but I ready to see those old faces that get me through each week. Also it's time, I've visited Starbucks.

I'm already finalizing a list of things I would like to accomplish this semester. First, I must find a job. I've been trying so hard but only gotten a few interviews. Secondly,I'm trying to raise my GPA. It's gonna be hard but I just need to focus hard on all my assignments. 


But my french class is pretty fucking awesome. The professor looks crazy in her granny floral night gown dress but the whole class is based on discussions over French cinema. The first movie we have to watch is Amelie. Oh, this might be the most excited I've been over any class I've ever taken.

Lastly, when I came home I found my Maltese laying on my laptop. Is he just the cutest thing? 


So how was everyday? If you started school also, I wish you the best of luck.
