Blue & Yellow

All these colors remind me of summer. Rarely do I step out of the house with just a tank top on, I get cold easily so I always have a cardigan, jacket, or long sleeve on hand so this shirt was perfect! The only other fedora I own is grey and black from the men's section so it's a little roomy. I lovee the yellow on this one. <3


Hat : UrbanOutfitters
Shirt : JCrew
Tank : Hollister (old)

This month has been pretty disappointing blogwise, only 4 posts?! I've just recently been busy this past week, with events, tests, and 20 page paper that I wrote in a day... Yet I still had time to start twittering or tweeting or whatever. You may notice my ridiculous tweets on the sidebar starting now haha.

In Pursuit

We all try to pursue what we think will make ourselves happy, or at least what will lead to the most livable outcome. In my pursuit, I have based my happiness on what will make everyone else happy. I think 'If everyone else is happy with my actions and my choices that should make me happy as well'. Truth be told I don't know what really makes me happy... I admit my logic is flawed and sometimes my view is narrow, thinking everything must be black or white. My cognitive outlook makes me feel a sense of helplessness, even when I know I have a choice and that my happiness is only limited by my failure to make healthy decisions.

...

This should have been posted a few weeks ago but I've been so scatterbrained lately I just got around to uploading.

I had the honor of being RMH's volunteer of the month for APRIL! I was shocked to say the least and was super excited to get this huge block of post-its (I love anything stationary) haha.


This past week I've been working out much more than usual (3 times). This workout craze was spurred by my tight (button popping) ao dai situation. I don't expect to see results (I wish) soon but I do notice working out makes me feel like I accomplished something. Along with more cardio I've been "dieting". My version of a diet however is just to eat smaller portions, as in stopping when I feel full, not eating those 4 last pieces of sushi :(, no fried foods, no GREASY burgers, and less junk food.


Dress : Target
Cardigan : Zara
Shoes : Calvin Klein
Bracelet : The Limited


Goal : Lose 5 pounds (in arms, tummy, and love handles :P oh why can't we choose where our fat cells shrink...)

Done and Done

First time wearing this denim shirt I got a while back from zara. I felt like a kid tying my shirt like that, but I didn't like it being so long.



I'm wearing jeans on the left and knitted tights on the right, but I felt that was too much, so I switched back to jeans haha.

ANYWAY, I signed my lease today! I feel much better knowing that I have a safe, nice, quiet place to live when I move. Just thinking about my loans is such a bummer though. I'll be in san an until sat night for welcome weekend. I didn't take pictures when I got to the social cause I was busy mingling and trying to scope out my classmates. Overall everyone seems normal, but we all know it's the stressful test weeks that will bring out the crazy in everyone. We are going to a place called Tonic Bar tonight, with a live band and cheap drinks.. apparently med students drink a lot. Then tomorrow it's nonstop 9PM-7PM and hopefully I'll be back in Houston before 11 :)

Grompers

This romper last seen here is one of the few that actually look okay on me. Without tights is a little short for me so I would prob wear it over a swim suit for the summertime. I pretty much went through all my shoes to decide which ones didn't look funny with blue tights.



I'm MOVING IN 3 MONTHS!!! AH

I never posted pictures from apartment hunting but that day we saw 8 apartments! so you'll see just the one we decided on.


Anyway this is one of the apartments we saw and didn't pick (above) but the fridge made me crack up. This is what mine will prob look like when I live by myself... stocked with sodas and candies. :P

All the pictures below are the ones from the apt we ended up going with, we sign the lease next weekend at the UTHSCSA welcome week :)

Want What I Can't Have

Why did I go to the mall again? Better yet why did I walk into a shoe store, when I'm on a shoe fast?? What's done is done, I sorta fell in love with these hidden platform mary janes... ohmygah! Anyway I've talked myself out of ordering them twice now, so someone who is a size 7 please buy these so I can borrow them, please and thank you!




They reminded me of the mary jane daffodils above, but def more practical even though they're still 5 inch heels. :)
