quote of the week

"sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, 'i'm not going to make it' but then you laugh inside remembering all the times you've felt that way before."

fill in the blank friday

trying something new:

1. True happiness is a great cup of coffee and time spent with my family

2. The most surreal moment of my life was not really sure, dont think i've had one yet.

3. My favorite texture is the crocheted blanket from my mother and cardigans

4. My signature color is pink, i always wear it when i want to brighten my day up.

5. My signature style is low-maintenance, jeans, a cute top, cardigan, earrings and my pandora bracelet.

6. If I could choose one store to spend my life savings at, it would be wow this is a really tough one either old navy or anthropologie, i basically live in old navy clothes but anthro has clothes, jewelry, home decor and kitchen stuff such a hard decision!

7. My best thing about autumn is pumpkin flavored everything, the colors, wearing lots of layers and wearing cardigans and football season!

wallowing

today i was fully ready to wallow in my self-pity. for starters its been raining nonstop this week, but its a humid rain that is disgusting in my personal opinion and makes walking to class incredibly unbearable even with my umbrella. secondly rutgers is disappointing me more and more everyday. example 1: they have the world's worst student accounting and financial aid services which enjoys personally ruining my life on a daily basis i swear and secondly we have students that like to cause this and then theres always the stress of classes and october is looking like its going to be a lovely month of exams and papers.

so just as i was about to start the pity party i read this and i realized that i really have so much more i could be thankful for today. the positives outweigh the negatives in my life and sometimes i forget this. thankfully the post made me realize this and now i want to say thank you to all of you followers who read and comment on my blog, i may not show it all the time but i really appreciate you following me and the lovely comments as well.
do you guys ever have days like this? where you swear you have the worst life ever and you just want to give up and quit but then you realize that you actually have a better life then you think?

and now id like to end on a positive note with a pretty picture before i have to head back out into the hurricane
