Ringing in the New Year with Positivity!

A New Year is an opportunity to rewrite yourself into a better you! So this year I am going to be more positive, happy and excited about things. I drew some inspiration for my new attitude from these...

Stuck on an Airplane

Airplanes are not my favorite place, I am not what you would call a docile person. I am constantly moving, talking, and observing; airplanes are not the best place to do any of these things. On a airplane you are seated in cramped seats with people on either sides of you sleeping or doing other mindless busy work to stop the boredom from creeping in. This leaves you minimal room for the occasional squirm or wiggle not to mention the ever so awkward I have to use the bathroom forcing someone from their slumber or tiny tower to stand (what a drag standing is) and let you past. Now for the talking problem, if your next to one of those chatty old ladies all you want is to stop talking; however, more often than not the person in either side of you will be totally oblivious to the outside world plugged in to their various "i things". 

You could be thinking, why can't you observe on an airplane their are plenty of people (you are also probably wondering why on earth you would be thinking something so peculiar). Well, on an airplane there are chairs and other people blocking your view of any thing and people on an airplane are not doing anything worth paying attention to.  So here I am plugged into my iPhone, blogging on my iPad (another mindless person plugged in to my "i things") At least I am preoccupied but there is no wifi to speak of so I can't exactly post this until I am no longer on stuck on this air plane.

Comming Home From San Fran

Happy New Years!

So I am currently sitting in a airport restaurant overjoyed that I finally have internet connection. In the beautiful but hilly city of San Fransico there was no wifi for a week so I could not do any blog posts or anything of that nature. Also, when we went up in the surrounding mountains to visit towns or Santa Clara there wasn't even cell phone service to check out Instagram or Pinterest. Let's just say family time was plentiful on this vacation stuffed into the back seat of a Chevy Equinox with my family of five. Overall San Francisco is a beautiful place, in so,e places it is over crowded and dirty so we tried to avoid those places. I will have a mini series recapping my days in Sam Francisco equip with photos and outfits of the day stay tuned!

I hope all of your Christmases were AMAZING! Mine was one of the best I have ever had, I am so grateful for all of my family and friends that were part of my Christmas season. So here are the outfits I wore to spread my christmas cheer!

This outfit was worn to a Christmas Eve brunch with a bunch of family friends.

The flannel, skirt & necklace are all from jcrew

I wore this dress to Christmas Eve church and dinner with my family!

Well the Most Stressful Time of My life is Over

This year the week before, during, and after mid-terms have been the most stressful things I had ever experienced! The week before, I had a test everyday and a bunch of random essays and projects due. The two days before finals I had four tests and an essay due plus intense finals studying. Then, during finals it was finals so you know how that is. This weekend was also supper busy with christmas cookie making, family dinners, sleep deprivation (from the two weeks before) and two sleepovers (that did not help with the lack of sleep)! Sorry I haven't been posting! It is a New Year's resolution to get better! 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,

Julia

P.S.
It was so stressful my friend found a grey hair! Keep in mind she is 15, school is so hard!  And it was so hard to pull it out, what a traumatic experience!

Jcrew Gift Ideas

Why hello there, I  don't know if you noticed but Christmas is in like 13 days so it is the season for gifting and making christmas lists. One of my favorite places to look for christmas list ideas is jcrew and I always find tons of things that I want so here are some of the "little" things I want from jcrew.

Necklace/wallet/boots/cap/sunnies

Oh and an exciting thing is that jcrew is having a 30% percent off sale with the code GIFTNOW so go check it out!

*Just as sort of a disclaimer I am not asking for all of these things they are just things I want and that would be nice gifts!*

Reinventing the Blog

Oh my goodness I am actually posting! What has it been like a month, I am so unorganized! So as it says in today's title I am reinventing the blog. If you are a returning viewer you can see that the blog scheme is very different, I was getting bored with my old blog so I thought I would mix it up a bit tell me if you like it! So since I will have a lot of time once finals are over and winter break hits I am looking forward to starting up my old blog again! So keep and eye out for more posts!
