A Day In The Life

Here's what a typical day in the life of a college student looks like! This is a typical MWF from my last semester, sophomore fall.

Staying Healthy in College

It's easy to fall into the trap of not eating well, never going to the gym, and not taking care of your body when you first arrive at college. However, with just a few simple tricks, you'll realize that it's not that hard to be healthy and still have fun!

Dormi-tour-io

I've wanted to give you all a tour of my dorm for quite a while now, and since I just got back to school and everything is put away and organized, I figured now would be the perfect time!! I live in a double with one of my sorority sisters, and we have such a nice space. My room is actually pretty big compared to some of the other rooms in this building, and I'm so grateful for that. I have so much stuff around in my room and I love that I have space to store everything just the way I like it :) 

Dealing with Sorority Disappointments

While recruitment can be a fun and rewarding experience, sometimes it does not always go as we had planned. I know first hand how stressful it can be when your expectations don't match up with what really happens on Bid Day. No matter how hard it is at first, there are a few really good tools you can use to help ease that disappointment!

Tips for Being Your BEST SELF during Sorority Recruitment

Even though the idea of joining a sorority is exciting, sometimes going through the recruitment process can be overwhelming. Meeting so many girls, having to remember lots of information, and being put under tremendous stress during your first few weeks of school is a lot to handle. But, there are a few things you can do to ensure that you present yourself in the best possible way, so that you can find your perfect home at the end of the week!

Goals for a New Year

I'm getting a little bit of a late head start posting this, but since most of the 2016 still lies ahead, I figured why not share about what my current goals are? I don't want to hold myself to anything unattainable, but I do believe that I can achieve these things. Keep reading to find out what my goals / bucket list items are for this year!

Pantone Color of the Year 2016

 

This year, Pantone decided to select two colors for this year's Color of the Year. The first is Rose Quartz, a lovely warm toned blush color. The second, Serenity, a a light blue with cooler tones, and a slight periwinkle/lavender look. I love blush as a color, and think it is beautiful to wear year-round, but I'm mostly excited to see if and how I can add pops of Serenity to my wardrobe. Starting small with some nail polish or this amazingly fun pom pom beanie would be a great start!

525,600 Minutes

I've always loved the song Seasons of Love from Rent, and I think that it's cool to look back on a year and figure out how you count the moments. People laugh when I talk about my love for shoes, but I think it's totally understandable! Shoes can make or break an outfit, and they have such personality. For me, shoes are the way I count the memories and they carry me through all my ups and downs each year. From my well-loved leopard heels to my white converse (that I've tried to keep clean lol), shoes speak to me on so many levels. Here's to a new year filled with new shoes and new memories attached!!

What do you use to measure the year?
