just another late night

My mum sent me this in the mail because I requested a surprise in the next care package she was going to send me. I think it might be the coolest thing that she's sent me so far. No joke. But anyway, I named him Ferdinand. He's my new reading/studying buddy because he's an awesome piggy pillow.

This is how we hang out:

Ferdinand is a very smart piggy pillow and is very good at helping me with homework. He absorbs information like no other!

Look at what else he can do!:

Also, it was one of the girls in my hall's birthday yesterday. So we made her a cake today.... in the shape of a cheese burger. It was pretty epic.

This is what it looked like when everything was said and done:

I also discovered what pineapple soda tastes like tonight. It was a fairly interesting time.

dream come true!

Look what came in the mail today!!!! Oh my goodness, I was so excited! I finally have tall black boots! I've been dying for boots like these for so long! And I got a package (well, two packages....) from my mum! I got lots of goodies, including red and purple tights and a piggy pillow thing! I love my mum!

Urban Outfitters smock tube top

Forever21 cardigan and locket

PacSun skinny jeans

Alloy boots

'X' equals....

The things that my hall does at 11:30 at night....

Yes, that's the Quadratic Formula in tramp-stamp form. And yes, I'm proud of it.

when the call of slumber becomes too strong....

I think a nap is in order....

only Tuesday

I returned to taking pictures in my dorm room again today. But it's been colder the past few days and I have massive amounts of homework to get done. So it's just easier when I'm giving my eyes a rest from staring at books all day. Today was the first day in a few that I woke up and didn't feel gross and sick-ish. But I'm still exhausted. And it's only Tuesday....

Good news this week is that I finally got out and bought new tights. They have this awesome crocheted/ribbed pattern going on that I really like. I didn't feel very up to pairing them with any other skirt or dress that I have this morning because I haven't paired these kinds of tights with anything I have before. So black it was! With orange to make it not so dreary.

go daytrippin'

It was sunny and relatively warm today! So Hayley dragged me out of my room to meet her friend from out of town for a bit. And I didn't have to wear tights or a coat today! It was glorious! And Hayley graciously took pictures for me today at the Look Out.

So my skirt is actually a smock tube top.... But I like it both ways! And it gives me more options for outfits. Now back to cleaning and reading for classes!

and I'm sleeping on the balcony after class

Today was a pretty good day. I dropped a class that I don't really need to be taking right at this moment in my college career and that would have just put more stress on my workload this semester than I need. So that's good. And I got to do some acting in my Shakespeare class. This semester should be good, if not really busy!

The chairs in my dorm should be taller.... or I need to get a tripod or find more creative ways to take pictures and better places than my dorm. But it's late. And I still have quite a bit of reading to do before the night is through. So, oh well....
