Photo a day: Day 2



Day 2: Words! If I was to ever get a tattoo which yes I have thought about doing it would be of this. I would want it on my side all in caligraphy and not big. I would maybe add something to it but the first 2 words would be small the Love would be the bigger word. Without love you have nothing... at least that is my opinion.

Photo a day: Day 1


Day 1: my view today! This would be my desk.... nothing exciting just another random cubicle that looks like all the rest! I do have lots of pictures though to make things more fun!


I am going to attempt to do this challenge daily but eh we shall see!

Wish I was here Wednesday

Today I am wishing I was in Australia snorkeling or scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef! Seriously one of my dreams would be to do this! Heck my dream vacation would be Australia in general!
And to see one of these guys would just be icing on the cake! I absolutely LOVE sea turtles!

Another picture

I forgot there was a guy going around Suede taking pictures and he took our picture and gave me a card to find it later online. Wow that was the longest sentence ever. I never claimed grammar and punctuation to be my strong points. Haha. Anywho this is a pic of Laura, Randy and me taking a break from watching the guys play pool. Fun times! I really love going to Suede. The atmosphere is really nice and the drinks are always good!


Today I am home from work. Woke up feeling not so great. I think oysters are now in the same categories as sushi for me. I love it but it doesn't love me. But I am feeling better already thank God! I slept another 5 hours and woke up feeling a bit better.

Oh another thing! So I have been stuck as far as losing weight. I stay between 134 and137 and it is frustrating. So I went to Complete Nutrition in West Ashley to start a new program called CTS360 and I am very excited to see the results. You take 3 different bottles of pills throughout the day! In the AM you take an activate and toning pill and again at 2pm then before bed you take the night formula to keep your body burning fat.
Go check it out www.completenutrition.com. I will definitely let you guys know how it works for me! :)

Happy Monday everyone! Be blessed :)

Dancing and oysters

Man this weekend is seriously already over?? :( sad times!

Friday night I got my hair done. It is a little bit darker than before but still the blonde that I love. I ended up at the gym with Laura and then did laundry. Fun stuff right? Lol

Saturday was fun! Hit the gym and chilled at home for a bit. Later in the evening went to a cookout with Laura and some of her family! It was fun and the food was pretty tasty especially the chocolate truffle YUM! Later we went to celebrate my friends birthday at Suede. It was fun but I may have drank too much. Ugh regret it! I wasn't drunk but I def don't want to drink that much again. I have enjoyed my drinking less lately.

Today we woke up early and went to the Oyster Festival at Boone hall plantation. It was fun but there were a ton of people. I believe they estimated 10,000 people based off pre-sale tickets. Tonight I hit the gym and am just hanging out. I am so tired. Also am planning to just stay home this week! I need some downtime. Nothing wrong with that :)

Hope you all had a great weekend!!

Oh I am typing this on my iPad so who knows how the pics will show up! We shall see!

Fill in the Blanks Friday

My favorite place I've traveled to is ... New York City! And I am going back in March. SO excited!

EVERYWHERE but to be specific Australia is somewhere I'd like to go someday.

I pass the time on a plane (or bus, train, etc.) ... Listening to music or reading a magazine. I am not one to socialize with the random stranger next to me.

My three must-haves when I travel are ... water, Iphone and now I am adding my Ipad

The craziest thing that has ever happened to me while traveling is ... traveling on the interstate in Florida and watching the tire roll off the car while my aunt Theresa was driving... FUN TIMES!

The most exotic food that I've tried while traveling is ... nothing exotic but I did discover the BEST bread pudding I have ever put in my mouth in St. Louis!

If I could live anywhere else, I'd live in ... in Australia

I have been to ... 13 ... states in the United States. Clearly I need to travel more

Wish I was here Wednesday

Seriously who doesn't want to jump right in this picture??? I'll take this with a few of my closest friends, some wine and girl talk and that would be paradise!! This picture is actually from a place in the Maldives. Yes please! :) I have been needing a vaca and I am definitely counting down the days until my NYC trip. I haven't been so excited for something in awhile. Well probably since my trip to St. Louis! By the way my BESTEST friend Angel is coming to visit next month and I am beyond excited. We are planning a big girls night out which will be so much fun!

Gooooood times

Darn... the weekend is almost over!! This has been quite fun I must say! I basically spent the entire weekend with Laura well the evenings anyway!
Friday night I went to hang out with her and Shawn at his apartment! Pizza, Cake, Beer (woodchuck for me) and music! Good times! I like chill evenings that aren't all crazy every once in awhile! It was weird though because he literally lives in the same building I did when I had my apartment. Brought back memories for me driving up there and parking in the same spot I always parked in.

Saturday I woke up and did spin class which kicked my butt! I haven't sweat that much in a spin class... EVER! But it was a nice way to start the day. Then mom and I went shopping... had to return a few things at the mall and got a new sticker for my car. Removed the other ones... I was over them! I enjoyed some Sara mommy time since it is rare these days. Later I met up with Laura and we went to dinner at her brother and sister-in-law's house. I must say I had home envy... their house was gorgeous. No lie everything about it was to die for! If I could have a realistic dream home that would be it. Anywho we were there about 3 hours... talked and had dinner! It was really nice and first time I had met her sister in law and she was so sweet! A true southern girl! Then after that we met up with our friends Michelle and Randy for some darts, beer ( I had 2) and then later Jenga and dancing at another place! It was a fun night I must say! I am so glad I have figured out that I can have fun in a bar without getting drunk! I guess that is part of growing up huh? haha or just the result of a baaad night! either way I am glad because I literally only spent $4 last night and I am VERY ok with that!!
Today I hit the gym and now am just chilling at home the rest of the evening. You know laundry and cleaning! fun times! But I am not in the mood to do anything after this weekend!
I added some pics :) enjoy!


Me and my woodchuck at Shawns Friday night!

Laura's fat cat
So I am eating pizza... Laura wants me to take a shot of whipped cream vodka... I tell her no it won't taste good with pizza so then she decides to put icing all over my lips... haha no clue!
The girls at Icehouse where we played darts

OMG!!! She got a bulls eye!!!! priceless faces!
I look fat but eh its funny!


Oh look another woodchuck :)
At the second bar we played life size jenga. Their goal was to get it as tall as me. Eh it was close!
Intense!
see.. its close!

So we were freezing and I am not sure how this ended up being a good idea haha but it was funny!
Michelle and Randy!
He picked me up and I was scared! lol pretty sure I was also trying not to show my butt to the world in this picture! haha

Good times with great people! I have been feeling very blessed lately for all the family and friends I have in my life. I have been having a lot of fun lately! I guess my days of being shy and a hermit are over. Live life to the fullest is all I have to say about that! :D
Hope your weekend was wonderful too :)

Festival Of Lights

I almost forgot to post the pictures Scott and I took at the festival of lights. We went with my aunt and papa but they stayed in the car for the picture session. It was funny because she saw them on facebook a few days later and said so THATS what you guys were doing while we waited in the car! :) haha we didn't say they had to stay in the car! The first one is my absolute favorite! I look super silly but it is funny! I was trying to act like I was a squirrel eating a nut... instead I just looked like a nut!




Pretending to be an angel... we all know the truth so stop pretending ;) HAHA




ARRRRRRGH



OMG it is a turtle! Turtles are my favorite!


boys will be boys... haha


yum yum


and... again boys will be boys


This was ALL sand... how crazy



like my house? yes I am in it... just look harder



I love this one of our new bridge on the water... So pretty! espcially with the lighthouse and the yorktown next to it!




Happy Thursday everyone!! It is ALMOST the weekend wooohooo!!! No big plans yet for this weekend... I have been having a very chill week. Been home the last 2 nights and most likely tonight I will stay home. I have actually been enjoying it! It is nice to just unwind sometimes and do nothing!
