Misc. Monday

Just a few miscellaneous thoughts that have been plaguing me for the majority of the day.

1. I leave for Myrtle Beach a mere 0NE WEEK from today!! WooHooooo!
{Vicky Gunvalson style}

P.S. Her book is next on my reading list!
I'm sure it's full of wonderful pearls of wisdom & maybe even a few tips on appropriate WooHoo times. I need work on mine.

2. 9 bridesmaids is too many... It looks completely ridiculous when your bridesmaids have to stand in 2 rows to fit up there with you. Get a grip & downsize.

3. Sweet mother of all things holy...
Your/You're
To/Too/Two
Their/There/They're
Where/Wear/Were
Women/Woman
Then/Than
Do NOT text me unless you can differentiate.
The boo's little bro gets it... Why can't anyone else?!

I happen to be the spelling/grammar nazi & I'm sure once he noticed his mistake he began fearing for his life & felt the need to correct it immediately, preventing further reprocussions.
SpellCheck yourself before you wreck yourself, y'all.

4. Happy 25th Birthday to Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen!

5. Denim jackets are BACK & I am loving it!
Per Pippa, I'll be busting mine out ASAP.

6. Ya know that saying "Don't make someone a priority, if you're only an option"?
Well, it's ringin' pretty true today & it's making me kind of sad for some reason. It's not like I should be surprised but my little naive heart is hurting. I guess it's because, like the saying says, I've made someone a priority with the faith & trust that I'm not an option. But time & time again, I'm proven wrong.
Oh well, on to bigger & better things!

7. I've never been an incredibly religious person... I am still finding my way & trying to figure out exactly what I believe. But I found this bible verse & have been clinging to it {for quite some time, actually} like it's my job.
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing!"
Isaiah 43:18-19.
I just love the message in this verse... It never gets old.

8. I have a blonde appointment Wednesday & I am so excited I can't stand it. Despite the insane upkeep, I love being a blonde.
{That's right, I'm not a natural blonde. Shocker, I know!}

& finally....

XOXO!

Pink Stairs, Pippa, & Little Things

So I'm working a job fair today & I was told I could bring things to do because there can be quite a bit of down time... & I thought I would use my free time for blog posting! {Did I mention I'm getting paid for it?! #winning.}

First of all, I was perusing one of the blogs I follow, & thought I would share. It's basically just like a Tumblr, because it's mostly pictures, but with a few paragraphs here & there. She seems to take an interest in a lot of the things I like looking at... i.e. flowers, pink things, decor, feathers, quotes, fashion, tiaras, cupcakes, pearls... Ya know, the usual. Anyway, I found this today & felt the need to post because I loved it!


Yoouuu guessed it, pink stairs!
I think in the right house & done the right way, they are so fun! Maybe that's just because I love absolutely anything pink though... Hmm.

In other news, I've begun stalking Pippa Middleton.
I didn't get ridiculously into the Royal Wedding mania {I only actively participated in two conversations about it,} simply because I am in denial about Wedding Season officially being here. The Royal Wedding only made it more official. HOWEVER, I will say that I wish my mother had the presence of mind when I was born to name me Pippa. &, as I'm sure you've noticed, she is goooorgeous!

I am on a journey to be Pippa, the American version.
We'll see how that one goes.

& I have a question... I've had confirmation from a very reliable source {ahem, the Real Housewives of New York} that it is a huge faux pas to wear white to a wedding, unless you're the bride of course.
I can only assume, & sincerely hope, the royal family is an exception to that rule?

Pippa!! How could you?!
I'll let her slide, simply because when she realizes I'm doing her proud here in America, she'll immediately want to be my BFF & let me borrow that dress for my own wedding.

Also among my discoveries is a Tumblr page called Little Things!
It's a page dedicated to those little things in life we can all relate to & appreciate!
Here are a few of my faves:)

{It may just be me, but since I am such a baller-wannabe this definitely rings true!}

Hope you enjoy reading these if you visit the page... I should definitely pay more attention to, & find joy in, the little things in life!

XOXO
