time for a break! YAY!

Okay, it's not really that much of a break - I'm still going to be updating here, I have a job interview, and I'm shadowing a couple different people, but I won't be attending classes or frantically keeping up with homework for one week, at least. Plus, I'll have the time to leave campus, which is always fun, and one of these days, my suitemate, my roomie, and I are going to go shopping! I'm particularly excited for that, actually. I rarely go shopping with other people, and the suitemate we're going shopping with is a pretty stylish gal - I couldn't wear the same things she does, I don't think I have the courage for some of it, but she looks so cool in it - and my roommate's just awesome and fun in general. It'll be a busy break, but it looks like a fun week's ahead!

This week was not so fun - frantically writing a post of some sort and running between classes and studying for a midterm while editing papers and panicking all the while. It was the sort of not-fun chaos that makes you dislike having lots of things to do, rather than the fun "everything is so COOL" kind of chaos that convinces me to do more things. Still, there were some cool things this week, namely on my Pinterest.

I saw Annie Hall in late February, and while it's a somewhat confusing story, and kind of sad and upsetting in lots of places, ultimately, I loved it. No love story (or even a "like" story) is necessarily linear and things can just fall apart without any warning or any real understanding between the people in them as to why they fell apart, and yeah, you do find yourself thinking about it constantly afterwards. It's definitely something I'd recommend seeing.

This is a full Harry Potter chapter written under the stairs. It's won my heart completely.

Alas, expensive shoes seem to be everywhere I look, taunting me with how pretty they are. These are one of the cutest pairs I've seen recently. Look at that little tassel, and the slight, pretty wedge, and the way the bands come together... I just really want these, and yet, I cannot have them, nor would I be able to wear for a while them if I could, because it's still so cold here. :c

Things I want in my life, Exhibit A. I think I might do this as a project sometime soon. Maybe with slits on the side? And then I'll have them as my Medieval Combat clothes, and feel appropriately cool when I'm beating people with foam swords. Ah yes... Now I just have to actually make it to another practice. I'm getting good at juggling my activities - I think I ought to be able to get it together by at least next semester.

I loooooove these doormats. They're cute and such a nice pop of color. I know the link is to where the product used to be sold, but the pin suggested spray-painting a doormat to get the same bright effect, and I'm totally in favor of doing that. Also something I might do, and then keep it in my room so I have a spot for my boots, jacket, and umbrella to recover from voyages into the rain/snow that we get so frequently.

What have been some of your favorite things this week? Do you think next week's going to be good?
