Update on my life!

My life has been a lot of work, school, work, school, work, work, outfit photos, work, blog post, school… haha but in all seriousness, that is pretty darn accurate.

I haven’t gone actual grocery shopping in probably 3 weeks… My room is such a mess I hate looking at it, and my outfits have been super lame. It really isn’t that great of a summer so far. However, this weekend is a big deal. I am going to the open call (I was invited to :)) at the Wilhelmina in Philly with my mommy!! haha Yea, I am 21 years old. But my car could simply not make it to Philadelphia.

So tomorrow we will rise at 6, and drive the 5 hours to get to Philly to see if they are actually interested in me, and make sure they are not a scam (charging $1,984,024 for comp cards isn’t cool). I am really not psyching myself out like I did for NYC in January. I have this mentality that whatever happens, happens. If nothing happens I will deal with it.

On a lighter note, Kevin has made my life, seeing him helps me relax soooo much. Because I have been such a stress ball lately! And he is moving like 10 mins from my apt!!! :D So this means we will see each other so much more, and we will start exercising (walking/running) in the morning together! I cannot wait to start feeling good about myself again. It is funny how such a simple work out in the morning can make your day go so much smoother! Especially because I sit at a desk for 8 hours… Then I go to class for another 4 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Life. It will start getting better! Slowly but surely! <3 You guys! Your nice comments brighten my day.

Oh and lastly, my photoshoot from a week ago was soooooo amazing, I really cannot wait to share the pictures with you! I haven’t gotten any back yet, and probably wont for a while. But thats because they will be so darn good! :)

Ok, now I am leaving. Time to work! <3333

P.S. Did I mention I am now a member of INDEPENDANT FASHION BLOGGERS! :) You are going to see some cool changes around here everyone! Maybe even a new web design… Especially for me. Oops, did I say that out loud? ;)

My Day Today

7:00AM- Wake up because my sister is being obnoxiously loud getting ready for school.

7:30AM- Fall back to sleep

8:00AM- Wake up for breakfast: my dad made me the best egg concoction today. Hashbrown’s, leftover steak, onions, eggs, and some horseradish sauce! SOOOO GOOD.

8:20AM- Leave for class (its raining!)

9:00AM- Class starts, I cannot keep my eyes open

11:03AM- I thought class was over, but he still had more to say.

12:00PM- Class was over, I got some Arby’s and headed to work.

1:00PM- Get to work

6:00PM- Get out of work

6:39PM- Get back to my Apt (realize I cannot parallel park for the life of me)

7:00PM- Start cleaning my room, and forget about eating dinner.

9:21PM- On to do some Freelance for a few hours…

Did I mention I have a test on Wednesday, along with my sisters confirmation I have to go home for. Oh, and I have to put in 30 hours of freelance this week. Have to make a few prints for some friends. Then a photo shoot Friday, and Saturday.

STRESSSSS but oddly I love being super stressed, it helps me get stuff done.  Wow, its only Monday. How is your week so far???

Heading to work in a few. It is FRIDAY!!! I can&#8217;t believe it.
I am bringing my puppy to work for a little bit! My friends have wanted to meet her! :} I love that we can have dogs at work!
Then I am out with the best friend for a few drinks! :) TGIF!
I will take a picture of how shady my car looks now, my dad made a new window hahaaaaa&#8230; I am soooo shady!

Crazy boob-age I know&#8230; haha
This is me sitting on my bed, realizing how tired I am and how much I still have to do&#8230; :(
News: I have a shoot this Friday, in search of a white dress, not a wedding dress. Just a classic white dress, I have no idea. haha He has a vision ;)
*In the process of scheduling more shoots!
Other things on my platter: trying to graduate early, missing Europe, falling more in love with my man, the struggle of keeping my room clean, attempting to work more hours, the torturous studying, and trying to fit exercise in!
I gave up junk food for lent&#8230; Let&#8217;s see if it works this time.
If not for religion, maybe you should try to give something up for yourself! I need to stop eating junk food, because it makes me feel like crap! Any people giving stuff up? What are you giving up?

Happy Friday!! If you party, be safe! If you don&#8217;t have some good old fashion sober fun! I will be working all weekend&#8230;
I have a secret you guys, I work at Wendy&#8217;s on the weekends&#8230; Don&#8217;t lose respect for me! :-P But that is the life of a poor college student/intern/model&#8230;
Do you have a un-glamourous job? If so what is it?
