~ little things ~

I can't wait until summer.  I know, I know...it's only day three of this semester.  But it also happens to be wickedly cold here, which makes me want 100 degree weather, beach trips, a glass of lemonade with a little umbrella, and adorable bathing suits even more.  But until then, here are some little things I'm loving about life.

01. a beautiful sunset that makes me believe this cold weather will end eventually

02. some beautifully dressed beach goers 

03.  trying out some summer hairstyles in the hopes that Mother Nature will take the hint

04. scoring my dream bathing suit during Modcloth's huge sale

{I can't wait until it arrives!!!!}

05. and finally, some motivation to study

Stay warm wherever you are!  And remember, soon we will all be complaining about how hot it is.

~ the final frontier ~

Now that the weather has taken a turn towards cooler temperatures and studying has taken over my life, I'm suddenly inspired to wear all of my favorite skirts. Twirling through the aisles at the grocery store makes up for freezing my buns off!

I'll be enormously happy when finals are over and the haze of sleep deprivation has left me!  But until then, here are some small things I've been doing to help combat the studying blues...try them out!

01.  enjoying some vegan egg nog


02.  taking a five minute music break every half hour or so.  I've been alternating between Frank Sinatra and Haim


03.  taking time to stretch out and practice my yoga breathing


04.  remembering that I have frozen cookie dough, eating half of it and then baking the rest


05.  making friends with the floor - 5 minutes naps are currently keeping me sane


06. And finally, taking advice from Mr. Gosling:

So study hard, try your best, and hope the academic gods are smiling upon you!
