College Days

Three Things I would have Done Differently in College

3. I would have moved out of the dorms. I know I am probably the 1% that actually stayed in the dorms, but it was just easier since I was graduating a semester earlier. Looking back I'm sad that I didn't get that experience. While the dorms are fun, it gets old, and I wouldn't have minded being away from campus at times. Don't pick easy, pick complicated. It's way more fun.

2. I would have joined more clubs/done more activities. I got really caught up with school, relaxing, and spending time with Andy that I didn't get involved like I should have. I wish that I would have jam-packed my schedule even more with tons of different activities/clubs. It would have been a great way to meet more people & develop more friendships.

1. I would have made more friends. I don't regret one second of the time I spent with Andy or like the 4 real true friends I made in college, but I always wished I had that huge group of girls that I hung out with. Ya know, the ones that take pictures every five seconds, looking absolutely adorable in their group of 500. I wish I would have put myself out there more and put more effort into being part of a "group."

Three Things I wouldn't have changed

3.  Not partying. I seriously went to 1 party and the bars once my entire time in college. At times I really wished I would have been the partying type because it seemed like so much fun. But looking back, I'm so happy I didn't fall into that norm. [Not that I am judging anyone that does!] I would rather be portrayed as a good girl who does her homework than a drunk girl at the bar every weekend. 

2. Spending every waking second with Andy. Seriously, we grew sooo much while we went to college together. We have so many amazing memories that I wouldn't trade for the world. It was so much fun. Seriously, go to college with your boyfriend. Being with your best friend everyday and experiencing college together is such an awesome adventure :)

1. My perfect balance of studying and having fun/relaxation. There were of course times where I was in the library for 6 hours at a time, that is inevitable. But for the most part I always made time for relaxing. I always made time for "me time" at the end of each week day. Whether it was 30 minutes or 3 hours I made sure it happened. It really helped me from burning out every semester. While your last semester of college is impossible to not get burnt out, I'd say it helped lessen it.

Ten Things that Make You Happy [Tuesday Topics]

Sidenote: So I don't know blog etiquette yet & I apologize if I am doing this wrong fellow bloggers. I really need someone to give me a lesson because I stink at this whole thing. However, my another blogger Ali       
[seriously addicted to her blogs] posted Tuesday Topics & she got it from another blog. So someone please tell me how I am supposed to give the credit correctly & whatnot?! 

10 Things that Make Me Happy

10. Being Pampered :) I love manicures, pedicures, massages, facials, getting my hair done, someone doing my make-up ect. Seriously, I wish I could afford to do one of those things once a week! It is so relaxing and fun to have someone else do your nails or make your face look pretty :) 

9. Wedding/Propsals Videos. Ah, I am such a sap. I [happy] cry over every lovey dovey videos I watch on pinterest or youtube! I love love and watching people in those videos be incredibly happy just puts a smile on my face.

8. Andy. My love. My man. My everything. This needs no explanation. He is my best friend & never fails to make me laugh. 

[Yes, this is a terrible picture of us. But I thought it captured the idea well :)]

7. Being Fit. I don't always feel this way, but when I do it feels so amazing :)

6. The days where you don't have to wash your hair. I know I'm disgusting. I wash my hair every few days and absolutely dread the days that I have to wash my hair because that means I actually have to spend time on it. I love no wash hair days :)

5. Good deals. I feel like I win the lotto when I come home with awesome bargains! 

4. Compliments. Working as a receptionist it seriously makes my day when a customer tells me that I'm doing a good job & to keep it up. So grateful for those people. 

3. Food. I just love food. I am always hungry & love to eat. It's been really tough to stop eating all my favorite foods, but I sneak in some here & there :)

2. My family is just a given! Love them. I especially love when we are all hanging out, laughing, and in our comfort zone.

[I know this picture may look inappropriate, but we were just trying to help wittle kourtney stay on the tree haha]

[the rents]

1. When the "lightbulb" goes off. I absolutely love when i have an "aha" moment. Like today I decided that I really really really want to do exposure therapy & art therapy when I counsel. It made me so excited as nerdy as that sounds :)
