its getting to be that part of the semester when i realize i should probably not have procrastinated so much and everyhing is wrapping up. this week i have 2 group presentations and next week are all of my exams. so until then i have sooo much to do for school and start to pack up my apartment. i have so much id love to share with you guys on the blog, like the easter egg garland i made for sunday or how great or garden is now that its planted but i cant find the time to fit it all in. this is basically a ramble and distraction from school work which i should probably get back to now.

this little piggy

my love for pigs continues and has grown, recently i bought a pig charm for my pandora bracelet and im trying to convince my parents how great of an idea it would be to buy one when i move back home. i havent totally won them on the idea but i imagine these pictures could be helpful.







hope you enjoy this silly post today, im getting a little overwhelmed with school this week because i only have 4 more classes til i leave for atlanta thursday, and in those 4 classes i have an exam and 5 reading responses due, wish me luck!

02. stop eating so much at the dining hall and actually cook again
03. take more pictures, i have a dslr but i forget i have it sometimes
04. buy some more sundresses
05. finish everything for my transfer from the university i attend to the culinary program im starting next year

quote of the week


I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken - and I’d rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived. — Margaret Mitchell
