Shopping Addiction.

Like I said before, I'm addicted to shopping. As a poor college student with no steady income, this can be a bad thing. My problem is that I see something I like and I have to have it, there's no ifs, ands, or buts about it. Now, I don't always just press buy, or go up to the register to buy something, I have some restraint. If I don't or can't purchase something, I will lust after it until I get it, or until something else catches my eye. 

After all of this, it won't come as a surprise that I did a little shopping this weekend. I was on instagram, saw a bag I loved and just had to have it. I went to the website, and they had it in 3 colors; mint, beige, and brown. Now, the bag that caught my eye on instagram was the mint one, but I was hesitant to get it because it wouldn't necessarily go with a lot of things, so I figured I would get the brown one. However, the bag was only $20! So I was bad and got the mint and the brown ones... oops. ;)


Here's the mint one: 

Here's the brown one:

Cute, right?! 

Keep on keeping on,

The bags are from lookbookstore.com which is an ebay store, and they have a lot of other cute things on their site, so go take a look!

Growing Up.

Hello again!

You hear all the time that growing up is a part of life, and you know that you'll have to do it eventually, but you never imagine you will actually grow up. I'm turning 21 in about two months, that scares me. Also, I can't believe that I am finishing my Junior year (3rd year) of college/university! That means I will be graduating college in about a year, which is crazy because I don't feel like I'm anywhere near old enough to almost have a degree.

I've lined up an internship for the summer that will hopefully steer me in the right direction of what I want to do with the rest of my life. This internship is in the town where my university is, and not my hometown so that means this will be the first summer living away from home. I've lived away from home during the school year, but have always gone back during the summer. This will be a new and hopefully amazing experience for me. It's kind of hitting my that my house that I grew up in will soon not be my house, it will be my parents' house. AAAHHH.

Although I'm a little scared and nervous for what the future holds, I've done a lot of things lately that have shown me that I'm ready. I've applied to internships myself without the help of anyone. I've called people and talked on the phone to people so much lately, which is huge for me because I never used to like talking on the phone to ANYONE. I've made decisions for myself that I would have never have thought I'd have to make, let alone myself.

Remember, if you have any questions, comments, or any suggestions on what I should post about next, please post!

Keep on keeping on,

Alex :)
