October 30 // College Recap

An account of how today went:

I woke up early even after going to bed at 2 because I was finishing a paper for a class I had later that morning..

No breakfast, two back to back classes..

A fire alarm went off about an hour ago..

Listened to my favorites off Taylor Swift's new cd about a dozen more times while I was cleaning my dorm room..

And ate some of the best dairy free chocolate chip and fudge brownie cookies today!

All in all, just another typical day in the life of this college student ;)

The beginning of this week was all kinds of crazy..I was stressing about school, my schedule for next semester, friendships and overreacting about 90% of it because of sleep deprivation..

Well, this is supposed to be kind of a college update post..anyway, I'm hoping to post some #ootds soon! The cold(er) part of the year is rapidly approaching..expect flannels, scarves, boots, and who knows what else! :) Can you believe that today is October 30?!

So here's to layers, fresh baked goods, and after-Halloween candy sales (just two more days!)

I dressed up as a flapper this year..I've already had several occasions where I was able to wear my costume and I've loved showing off the outfit I finally put together (I mean, I found my dress Monday and I had to wear it to an event Tuesday..that tells you what kind of procrastinator I am..)

Anyway, Halloween is an awesome holiday & college makes you want to go back to trick or treating at age 5, but dressing up with your friends is almost as great! :) The only down side is buying your own candy..I never knew it was so expensive!

So..that kinda sums up this week..oh goodness. How am I ever going to be prepared for finals in a couple weeks? Hopefully a ton of care packages :D

College is crazy, kids. Prepare yourselves. You've been warned.

(Maybe I'll write a blog post about college tips and such..)

Have an amazing rest of your Thursday & hoping that you have a fantastic Friday!

Check back tomorrow for Friday Favorites! :)

Sorry my blog posts are so random!

I Know This Is Corny But..

So..this is sort of a weekend recap!

Fall is officially one of my favorite seasons.
There are so many activities and do not even get more started on the style element of fall!
I went to a corn maze and I have to say they are so fun & will definitely become a new tradition for me! :) I had such a great time! I "got lost" four different times, ate half a huge bag of kettle corn, watched couples waltz (!!!), and walked on hay bales. Whoever invented the idea of a corn maze rocks, because it is possibly one of the coolest things ever. My favorite time to visit a corn maze is at night. I love how peaceful it is and how the sunset looks behind the corn stalks.

this picture does not do justice to how magnificent and gorgeous and beautiful the sky was

i want these lights; love!

I hope this inspires you to go and experience a corn maze for yourself!

Have a wonderful rest of today!

You made it halfway through the week--I'm so proud of you!

Keep it up :)

Road Trippin' & Apple Picking

The colors of fall

Pretty pumpkins

Lovely little bridge

Attempt at an artsy photo

The most beautiful view

Leaves changing color

Fall in a picture

Take the (apple orchard) path less traveled by

Panorama pictures are my favorite

Wagon to carry all the apples we picked

Cool contrast, thanks iPhone

At least my sister thought this picture was cool..

Hidden treasure aka more apples

Perfect combination

Apple to apples

Through these photos, you can experience what I was able to witness in person. This orchard and its beauty never becomes old to me. I look forward to coming here every year because I love the scenic landscapes & everything that accompanies apple picking. The time spent walking in-between apple trees with friends and family this weekend are memories that I will treasure forever. Who knew there were so many varieties of apples to choose from?! Feeling carefree and full of energy, I enjoyed spending my morning with a few of the people I love. Apple orchards are very muddy, and deciding to wear my Hunters was one of the best life decisions I've ever made at 7 a.m. With my rain boots, I was able to add a special touch to my outfit without forsaking style!

That's a wrap on this weekend recap! :)
