Catching up.

I know, I know. I've been slacking horribly in the blog-o-sphere. It was all a whirlwind from Homecoming to today. It probably will continue to be as this week leads to Thanksgiving week, and then to Finals time. Oh joy!

Here are some updates from my life the past couple weeks (other than iPhone decisions!)

1. Homecoming was fabulous, in a 2 hours of sleep, stressful, chaotic, wonderful kind of way!

 

 Some of my favorites from the longest ASU Homecoming tradition, Lantern Walk, and the Parade!

2. Halloweekend; I got to go out with my favorite girls, dressed up as sea creatures one night, and Katy Perry with my family and some other friends the second night. Who doesn't love dressing up and seeing of hundreds of other 20-somethings dressed as everything from Unicorns to Freddy Krueger. Too much fun, especially meeting cute boys with mustaches. Until you don't talk to them ever again, but hey- still fun!

Sea Creatures and my family of musical artists (Katy Scary, Freddy Mercury, Kitty Purry, and Katy Perry!)

3. Took a weekend to spoil myself last weekend. I got a pedicure which I've totally been loving. I just look down at my toes and feel so happy with my french-tipped toes. Totally worth it before they go into boots for winter! I went and got coffee at Gold Bar, went on a bike-ride to nowhere with my friend from work. It was nice to ride around the lake in Tempe, not going to work, or rushing to class, or trying to get home in a hurry.The weather has finally been nice here in AZ, and I'm trying to soak it in as much as I can!

 Pedicured toes and coffee! 

4. I traveled to Indianapolis for an interview this week. One of my dream companies flew me out for a final interview. Super stressful, but such an amazing experience! You never think something like that would happen to you, but I've finally come to realize that all my work, all my jobs, all the studying, is all worth it! Whether it's with this company, or somewhere else, I am getting such great experience and doing great things and I'm loving it! I'm supposed to find out in the next week or two about an offer from the company and will be sure to share the details! Send good vibes my way! xo

 What I wore on my interview, it was casual- everyone was wearing jeans! Definitely threw me off, but was way cool to wear what I'm more comfortable in!

Hope this got you caught up, thanks for checking in! Have a lovely weekend!

Here it goes, even though it's a little late. I couldn't miss two Wednesdays in a row. Especially when I have no excuse of a test or tons of homework, this week anyways!



V-neck: VS Pink
Shorts: Pink House Treasures
Headband: Topshop

I really need a haircut, but don't know where to go! Maybe the beauty school, just something that won't cost an arm and a leg! Anyways, I've had the most relaxed week and it has been great. Catching up on me time, watching Glee, cooking, and enjoying the beautiful weather that is gracing Arizona right now. It is October and the plans of pumpkin carving, Halloween parties, and trips to the State Fair are making me ecstatic. So glad it's finally here, and for now I'm going stop worrying about my life plan for the next three years and focus on the important things in life, like pumpkin spice candles and baking brownies!

Here's to soaking in the best month of the year,
Alex

Hump Day!

Whirlwind of a day, but I did wear at least one cute thing this week.

 

Cowboy fringe shirt - Estate Sale
Shorts - F21
Sandals - gift from the grandma! (from Dillards)

A look at my apartment should be coming soon if I get it pretty and clean and take pictures of it which may or may not happen in the near future! Camp up north this weekend, San Diego the following weekend for TDCC! Eeeee :]
As my best friend says, just remember what's going to make you happy.
True that.

What I Wore Wednesday!

I didn't forget, just a little late. But better than never!
Trying to stay on top of my online homework, study guides and papers due anddd planning my upcoming event in a couple weeks. Hope you all are staying on top of all that you do, and most of all staying happy!




I got this romper at Goodwill over summer and fell in love with it's retro feel. I need to trim the shorts, but I haven't gotten around to it, and wanted to wear it... so I did! I got to enjoy lunch with my Grandpa and then had a vintage-shopping soda-drinking sister date in Downtown Phoenix! Totally fell in love with MacAlpines, the CUTEST old-fashioned soda shoppe. We felt like we were in an old-timey movie drinking phosphates and sodas on bar stools. So great!

Well, off to more Astronomy homework! Have a good week,
Alex
