Suicide Prevention...Yeah I went there.


Still think of him almost daily/weekly.
That day forever changed my life.
I became truly passionate for a cause and want to help change lives, but in a different way than he changed mine.
RIP CMT.
If I can help save just one life, it will all be worth it.

Memorial Weekend Shennanies Recap

Sami's Shenanigans
Jump back on the bandwagon for this link up. It's been a few weeks since I've done it. My badddd...
Any who, here are a few pictures from my weekend. I never remember to take pictures with people. oops.

Outfit for my friend's bridal shower.

Beautiful-ish day for the American Flag to fly on Memorial Day. It rained pretty good part of the day.

 Got this in the mail today!! :)
It's a weekender bag. Thought it was fitting.
Had a triple dinner date with some other couples in our friend group. We ate at Cheddar's and then watched The Hangover II. This was my .99 cent shooter dessert. OM NOM NOM.

What did you do this weekend?!? Hope it was great.

Bridal Shower Fiasco


Went to my first ever bridal shower today for a friend from college. They had super cute decorations and the food was really yummy. :) I looked great in my dress, and even flat ironed my hair for the first time in months....my hair ended up being frizzy because of the heat. It was also really great to see the bride!
Now on to the shower story....

I had arrived on time...it was supposed to start at 3. The hosts weren't done setting up yet and the guests all didn't finish arriving until around 4:30....then we got to eat. So we all sat around for an hour and a half doing nothing. I didn't know anyone. Ended up making small talk with the people at my table. 
Managed to eat some like snacks, and avoided the desserts. I had dinner plans for 6:30, mind you, I drove 40 + minutes to attend this shower. 
By the time we got done eating, I left around 5:30....just when people were finishing up with dessert and some sort of tea was being handed out. 
I didn't have time to stay for games or the opening of the presents. :(
But spending 2 1/2 hours in a hot room with strangers was enough. I had Andrew and friends to see for our triple date dinner. 
It was really nice to be able to see my friend the bride to be though.
Wish I could have stayed for the gift opening part though, those gifts were piled high.
Hope she liked what I got her! (Bath and Body Works soaps in her favorite scents, and a picture frame)

I shall now leave you with a selfie of me in my dress and my straight hair. Sorority squat...duh. Look how long my hair is getting! :)

My Weakness

Pearls and Curls
It's weekly link up time via instagram and Sara! 

Made a stop here for some crafting supplies. Made a few grad cards this week.
LOVE THIS PLACE. My bank account....not so much.

Made cupcakes for an order. :) They are for a bridal shower.
Cha Ching....some much needed money coming my way.

'Merica.

This arrived in the mail, from eBay, duh.

The lady I got the cosmetic bad from sent me this for free. It was really nice of her! But I have no use for it....selling it on eBay folks. Look out for it.

Painted my nails. They chipped like crazy this week due to working...repainted spots several times and finally took the polish off last night. 

Tonight I celebrate Andrew's birthday with him. He is 24 today! I'll do a post on this celebrations later. 
HAPPY 24th BIRTHDAY ANDREW!
What did you do this week?

HEAT WAVE!

A few weeks back (meaning 2 weeks ago mind you) it SNOWED in KS. And the temps were only in the 30s....now see below. 


You read that right. 
KS went from kinda spring, to winter, to SUMMER. 
I don't know about you, but I LOVE spring temps. They aren't too cold, or too hot. 
My ideal temps/weather is sunny and some where between 65-85 degrees. 
This girl needs a break from freezing cold and uber hot. I am NOT ready for 90-100+ degree days just yet.

But on that 90 something degree day I wore this. 
Sported my new DZ American frat tank for the first time....yes as an alum.
LOVE IT. 'MERICA y'all. 
Hope your enjoying your week, don't worry the weekend is near!
Anyone else experiencing freakishly hot temps?
