A {Secret} Tip

I just signed up for a Victoria's Secret credit card....I smell trouble!

whoop whoop

Everytime you check out at VS, you should give them your e-mail address! Sometimes if they ask for your home address, give it to them! I know that sounds a little scary but you get AWESOME coupons in the mail! I just got 2 free pairs of cute undies this week from the coupons. That is $20 worth of undies! Foooo freeeeee.

I love me some VS. I am weird and only buy VS bras and undies but I hate paying 55 dolla bills for a bra and 15 dolla bills for undies! So I love the coupons!!


My [scary] yay face!


So check out the sales and coupons to save yourself some dolla dolla bills, yo!

*In honor of douchey-mcdoucher that messaged me this week after 2 months of nada, zip, zilch, nothing..


Happy Saturday! Don't let the douchers in your life ruin it :)

Baby Bo!

Okay so clearly I suck..I mean I am posting this 3 weeks too late - womp womp.
 
Long story short.........

My sister had her baby on July 23rd. I went out there on July 29th so see him.
My flight was delayed 4 hours...I was tired and grouchy by the time I got there but I finally got to meet my new nephew!! My sister lives on a farm, 10 hours away from me which sucks but in the next few months it will be 32 hours. Ahhhh :(

He is so cute. Time for pictures aka proof of his adorableness.







Passed out!





Snapchatting my bro-in-law. This is why my mom never wants to take pics with me! haha

Bo's room is cowboy themed so I made him a little cowboy onesie :)
 
I am a little bummed that I won't be able to see him that often!
 

Let's be honest....we can't forget George. BAAAAAAA!

Wedding Reminder + Long Distance

Today, I recieved an e-mail from The Knot. *Reminder, your wedding is only 10 months away!*

Ahhhh crap. Thanks for shoving it in my face haha. To be honest, I probably didn't handle the whole breaking off the engagement situation. At first, I had hopes that we would get back together and then I was just trying to avoid the situation. So, when I got the 16, 14, and 12 month reminders, I deleted them suppppa fast. I think I should probably go delete my wedding page and let The Knot know, that I no longer need their services ;) I didn't realize how much stuff I had done for the wedding and now I am trying to reverse and cancel everything.

I feel like.......

I am so incredibly happy (and jealous) of my friends who are getting married in the near future!! It is such a great feeling and I am so excited for when that days comes for me again! {No rush. right now} It feels crazy that everyone is getting married or having babies but I guess that time is coming.

One of my friends I have known forever, just asked me to be in her wedding! I was so excited. This will be the second wedding I have been in ever. The first being my sister. I am hopeful that the timing will work out and that I can make it back for her wedding! I am a little sad that I won't be around to help her with the decorations but maybe I can be their via skype. I don't have a picture, but she asked me with something similar to below.

Will you be my bridesmaid? What better way to pop the question than with a Ring Pop!

The more that I have been apartment and job hunting, I am getting really excited but am starting to get sad too. I have mixed feelings. I was so ready to get away from my family but now I realize it might be harder than I thought.  I know it will be a good experience for myself but it will be hard at first adjusting on my own.

Were you nervous when you first moved out of your parents?
Any apartment hunting tips?

I would love any tips about moving far away from your loved ones.

Weekend Randoms

So this weekend I didn't do anything exciting. I worked 12 hour shifts on Friday and Saturday...Yay for extra $$$, boo for annoying co-workers. You may or may not have seen on IG that I got peed on by 7 am. It happened the next day too. I should probably stop wearing mesh shoes..or learn to dodge faster but the plastic ones just aren't as comfy.

 
This last week, we finally had sweet corn. I have been waiting months to eat this. Yummmmmmmmmmmm!!!! My grandparent's came to visit and brought 3 dozen...so now
I am sick of it. Doesn't it look delicious? Roll it in butter with a little salt.......mmmmm.
Yummy in ma tummy.

I have been apartment hunting lately and it sucks..Trying to find an apartment 1,600 miles away is HARD. That challenge will be told later.

I dyed my hair this last week. I went from "mousy brown" to darker brown. It looks a lot different but I am really starting to like it!!!
 The after picture doesn't really do a good job showing it due to the awful lighting in my room. I will always love my before hair....I may have to go back next time. I'm such an indecisive person.

Before
After
 
I promise I will get my post up about my ADORABLE nephew soon. I miss the little guy so much!


 Linking up with Sami!!!

First Julep Box

I received my first Julep box today!! I took the style quiz and was "Classic with a Twist." I chose the "It Girl" category because I liked the choices better. I like that there is an option where you can see all the boxes and choose which one you like best.


My colors were purple, a silvery-white, and silver glitter. I tried them out right away and really like them!!! I applied the purple and it smelled like candy! Yum haha I also got a sample of hand scrub that I have yet to try.

 
Right now they are having a special where you get your first box free!! Just use the code "FREEBOX" when checking out. You only have to pay $3.99 for shipping. Score! I am not sure if I will purchase this again. The nail polishes were good but $20 for 3 small nail polishes, is a little expensive for me.

I don't know about you guys but having my nails painted makes me feel so much more girly!! :)





If you are looking for a new box or nail polishes to try, you should totally check this special out!!
