Weekend Wishes

Happy Weekend Everyone! 

Thankfully this week flew by and I managed to finish an essay, three lab reports, and a test from Wednesday through Friday (thats why I have been MIA for a few days). I'm going to take this weekend slowly, this morning I've started the morning by spending time blogging and on Pinterest while watching a TED talk on healthy eating (its pretty fascinating). I need to find more of a balance, the weeks tend to be a complete whirlwind with no sleep and then the weekends are just about catching up and preparing for the next week. So this weekend and hopefully next week, I am going to dedicate 20 minutes to watching a TED talk or reading the news to do something different! 

Here are a couple links that have caught my eye this morning

- I came across this DVD called Hungry for Change and I am putting it on my list to watch when I have some free time. It seems fascinating!! 

- Kate Spade is having a Friends & Family 25% off sale... 

- J.Crew is having a 25% off sale for suits, tshirts and shorts

- I'm considering buying a pair of Sperry's... I have realized (after being on campus for almost 2 years) just how versatile and comfy they really are, I'm thinking of a classic pair. 

Enjoy! xox

Weekend Wind Down

T.G.I.F 

This week was a complete whirlwind, I am both mentally and physically exhausted but I still have to keep swimming along! No matter how tired and exhausted I was I tried to keep a smile on my face and a positive attitude... the only way to get through the week is essentially just to get through it!

   I have been meeting once a week with a woman in her 80's who I work with on memory tasks and each time I see her she asks me how I keep up. She mentioned yesterday how happy I was all the time and I just explained to her my outlook. What ways to do you find make you motivated and uplifted? I was using exercise as a way of decompressing, however, I'm afraid I only had time to work out once this week. My schedule next week is going to be much more intense than this so I am going to build in time to work out because I know that I need that for my sanity! Hehe. 

In the meantime, its time to catch up on some sleep and get ahead for next week before it all begins again. I can't wait for the warm weather next week, it says 70 on Monday and Tuesday... 70! 

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! xoxo

Happy Friday everyone! This week really flew by... after three days at school doing work nonstop, I was able to go home and spend some much needed time with my family. Its been great to catch up over my mom's amazing cooking {she made steak and butternut squash gallette on Wednesday night and last night was coq au vin}. I've also had some much needed time catching up on my favorite tv shows {don't judge me but I loved the season on Vanderpump Rules and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills}. This weekend will be all about homework and some more homework and family adventures. What does everyone else have in store for the weekend? 

I couldn't resist showing this photo... wouldn't it be wonderful to wake up on a weekend morning and enjoy this view?! 

Enjoy! xox

Monday's Motivation

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. My weekend was filled with lots of homework, some great food and fun times with friends. The weekend flew by so quickly it was impossible for me to get everything on my to-do list done... therefore I have quite a lot to do this week but I'm counting down the hours until I get to go home for a few days and see my family! Each time I check something off the list, it's one step closer to being able to pack everything up and enjoy time with the family with great home cooked food, and relaxation. 

Love this quote... its so true too! It's not worth hanging on to people who aren't there for you are simply  not interested in being in a reciprocated friendship. I've learned over the years that friendship is all about reciprocation and if it isn't a two way street then it's not worth you being on the street at all! haha. 

Have a great day! xox

Happy Friday everyone! I can't tell you how excited I am for this weekend... can't wait to have a chance to relax for a couple of hours without feeling guilty about it. Although I have an insane amount of homework for the weekend, I look forward to enjoying some time with my friends over a great meal and getting to spend some time outside for a change. 

Some fabulous photos to start the weekend off right... 

How fabulous are these?! Eeeeek.

Oversized and completely cozy... so weekend! 

Can you say sleek and sophisticated... love it! 

Quite the combo. 

Any fun weekend plans? xox

I hope everyone's weekend is filled with friends, family and some fabulous end of summer feasts. I go back to school next Wednesday so this weekend is all about packing, shopping and doing some last minute list checking. In addition, my friends, sister and I are going to be doing the Color Run in New York City tomorrow, I'm so excited! 

Any weekend plans? Enjoy! xox

Loving this ensemble... its classic and casual and so effortlessly chic! 

So far the weekend has been fairly relaxing... got home from an amazing boat trip with my friends, caught up with the family and spent the afternoon writing To-Do lists because I thought tomorrow was Monday (oops!). Hope you are enjoying the weekend as well.

Weekend Wishes

Thank goodness its Saturday! The first week of August went by so fast... that means school is going to be right around the corner. It's time to savor the moments, so I am spending today with the family by the pool and then babysitting for a couple of hours later and after that going to midnight bowling with some friends.

Hope your weekend is filled with relaxing in the sun!! Enjoy! xox

Enjoy

Just wishing all of you a wonderful weekend!

 I just went shopping with my sister and now I'm off to soak up the sun. 

Enjoy!  xox
