Shout out

This post is a shout out to my pal Laura. Laura and I have been friends since my freshman year of college. She was my RA and we lived right across the hall from one another! Seriously, we were attached at the hip... it was ridiculous. Currently, she is in China following the Lord's plan. She is teaching english to kids and young adults for a year. She has been for about four months and those months have not always been the easiest. It's inspiring to know that she is resting in the fact that she is doing the Lords plan and that His mercies are new for her every.single.day. That is one of the many reasons why I appreciate her friendship and am thankful for her. That and she loves to be 12 with me and freak out over tween things, ha!
She has a blog, she doesn't update often but when she does its incredible. So if you want to be inspired by her story in China check it out here

Break time = blank time


Hey guys! It's Friday and I have been doing school work all day so time to take a break and fill in some blanks with Lauren!!!
You know you want to do it too!!!


1.   A nervous habit I have is     i get really antsy and can't stay still oh and I gotta go poop ha!

2.   Something that makes me sad is   a client I saw yesterday who was abused. 

3.  Today I am thankful for    a day off, rest, almost being done with the semester, scratching stuff off a to do list, my main squeeze, and dinner with a long lost pal .

4. My favorite room in my house is    my room because my bed is so stinkin comfy  .

5.  I can't stand    when people smack their food or their lips .

6.  If I had an extra $100 to spend on whatever I wanted today I would    buy new running gear or some TOMS, but in reality I'd probably save it! #gradschool

7.  The last person I hung out with was    my roomie for a chick fil a opening  .

There you have it!
Now, go link up and play too!!

neck tat: round 2

This morning I woke up to go run and boom my car wouldn't start! I mean why would my car work, right? Ha!
Apparently batteries have cells and one of my cells died. After tears, frustration, and being sassy out of frustration my good friend Neck Tat came to my rescue! You remember neck tat from my last car incident 2 months ago, it's the same guy! We are pretty much BFF! Eventually by 11:30 this was my view
#chromerims

I am thankful that the tow guy didn't make me feel like a complete idiot and that he was helpful.
I am also thankful that the Lord continues to teach me in moments of frustration and sass!
Today's Lesson: Patience and Pride
I know, double whammy
she is okay now and I am going to get her bright and early tomorrow morning!!

Fill 'em

It's that time again!
Fill in those blanks with Lauren



1.   My favorite new blog of the moment is     ummm im not really a ultra dedicated blogger so I dont think this really counts for me ha! But I'll throw a shout out to my pal over at Saga Of A Twenty Something   .

2.   Something I am thankful for is   my comfy down comforter in this cold weather!

3.  Something that made me laugh this week was    a funny boy that I met last night at my apt complex thanksgiving dinner   .

4. An item that is currently on my wish list is    ummm Vibram's are pretty tight but a coffee muffin date with my main squeeze is even cooler.

5.  I am excited about    thanksgiving break in 1.5 weeks and being done with my massive paper

6.  If I were a color I would be     yellow, because it's a jam. 

7.  My favorite way to spend a chilly fall day is by    coffee, cuddle time, and play time with my favorite babies! 

Have a good weekend people!!

Geaux Tigers!

This weekend was a big weekend for college football... Why you ask? Oh just LSU (#2) and Alabama (#1) played each other! No worries though, LSU won and is now the number 1 team whoop whoop!!! 
This is what I did to watch the game:

this is what I wore. I was feeling thug so I incorporated this into my outfit!

My sweet friend mary made Purple and Gold cupcakes for us!

half time show: Bananagrams

Confession: guys... I really dont care that much/know anything about football. I just  have to pretend I do since LSU revolves around it! However, pretending is fun for the season! :)

Also... My list of school things is now down to 2 and my big 10-12 page paper is almost finished!! 
I have 22 hours of internship left for the semester
Thanksgiving break is in 2 weeks!
