In a Nutshell

Sometimes I forget that this blog is not only a beauty blog, but a lifestyle blog as well. I think I was so focused on beauty and trying to make my blog a success that it became stressful. I always have loved blogging and have missed it but I want to do this my way and not focus so much on the success or popularity of blogging and just do what i love.

My life this semester at school has been a disaster. I made the deans list last semester and had such an amazing semester this semester has just taken a turn for the worst. so much has been going on i even think some of my teachers are becoming stressed. i'll let you in on my life a little to show you how crazy my life has been. first of all this winter has been insane, my school has had maybe 3 or more snow days which have been somewhat nice but also have made everyone a little more stressed. teachers are trying to catch up and just pilling on work and its been really hard for me.

Also at the beginning to middle of this semester my grandfather was in the hospital and was not expected to make it, because of that my head was never in the right place. i missed a week of classes to be with my family in the hospital. my grandfather is truly a fighter because he made it out of the hospital and doing better.

A couple weeks after coming back to school and getting back into my groove my flash drive with all of my work from the past couple years shit the bed (excuse my language but thats what happened) I plugged in my flash drive during class and it didn't open up in the computer, i took it to the IT desk and they pretty much told me it was dead. As a graphic designer this is one of the worst things that can happen to you. I was a total idiot and didn't have anything backed up so i lost almost everything i have ever worked on, including projects that were due that week.

This semester has been a total stress ball but it hasn't been all bad times. I became a big in my semester and got the most perfect little. I also took a trip to Puerto Rico for spring break. It was the perfect week getaway and totally relaxing. it was exactly what i needed. I have also been working out and trying to change my eating habits and since i started i have lost about 35 lbs. I'm extremely proud of myself.

I hope to continue to update regularly but I have no idea how the rest of this semester is going to go. blogging gives me inspiration and lets me be creative and i really need that in my life because i'm starting to get lost in this "cookie cutter" graphic design major i'm in. let me know if you read any blogs that inspire you or even if you think you have an inspiring blog, i would love to check it out!
