2K14

So remember that time ohhh about five months ago when I decided to go on hiatus in light of my impending LSAT? Well I didn't think it would take me this long to get back.. unfortunately as certain things in the future are unforeseen, it has come to my attention that once is simply not enough with things that matter, and I shall endure the dreaded LSAT once more in February.

With that being said, it's one of those nights where I'm full of energy and can't seem to fall asleep... what better way to keep burning the candle at both ends than to spice up my dear old blog.. Now that the physical changes have taken place its time to get to the nitty gritty and get back to speed!

2013 proved to be one hell of a year, and I don't mean that lightly. There were plenty of ups and downs to keep me busy, anxious, happy, sad, and bouncing all over. Despite some of my happier moments, I for one am thrilled to have seen the year come to a close. For me 2014 holds so many possibilities, especially with my up and coming graduation from college. I really never thought I would see the day that I would find myself here, it sort of feels bittersweet and exciting all at the same time... Over the last few weeks of Christmas break, I've had plenty of time to reflect back on my adventures and my mistakes. That being said, I hope to channel all of my positive energy into 2014 and fulfill my New Year's wish - to be happy - regardless of what may stand in my way. Enough with fad diets, exercise goals, and meaningless promises that are forgotten on the morning of January 1st.

This year I WANT TO BE HAPPY, and ain't nobody gonna break my stride..boys and girls beware!

A Little Hiatus Never Hurt Anyone..

Hello fellow bloggers!

I know it's been quite some time since I had a chance to post anything, let off some steam, or enlighten you with some of the goodies I'm interested in lately but sometimes things happen in life and a hiatus becomes a necessity. Necessities and sufficiencies are something I've become familiar with lately as I've been studying for the upcoming October LSAT. It hasn't been easy to put life (and by life, I mean my social activities) aside and focus on whats really important but sometimes its what you have to do. I can gladly say that in a month and a half I'll hopefully (fingers crossed) be able to put it behind me and enjoy my senior year.

So hold tight.. I will be back. And who knows.. there may be some sporadic posts every now and then but priorities come first and soon this will be at the top of the list.

All my love,

It's Been a Long Time Coming..

Sometimes we expect more from others because we would be willing to do that much more for them. And sometimes we interpret things one way, when in reality it’s something so much more different than we had envisioned. We let our expectations get in the way of what’s really happening and it changes the dynamic of everything.

Relationships are hard. Starting them is easy – a simple hello could change things, but what happens when you put yourself into the equation, when you give of yourself and they give back, and things build? Things get complicated.

Before coming to college I had casually dated; there were guys my own age, guys who were older. I thought I could play the game talk the talk, knew what I was doing. At times I found myself not so much in trouble but in awkward predicaments but in the end, things always ended for the better. I made friends with some of them, haven’t seen others since, and I thought I had had my heartbroken – turns out I hadn’t even come close. Then I came to college, a world where despite all the people from back home, I could kind of re-invent myself – they had no need to know who I had been in my past dating life, didn’t need to know the ins and outs of my tastes and my adventures.

Daft Punk - Get Lucky

This is one of the best songs I've heard in a long time. Daft Punk just released the first single from their upcoming album not too long ago and I can't get it out of my head, it's constantly on repeat.

Suit Up, Ted.

I don't know about you guys, but if these pictures don't inspire you to get in the mood for spring and throw on a male-inspired yet fashion-saavy suit then I don't know what will. Enough with giving men the credit, it's time for us to rock the suit while looking effortlessly chic as well!

The Lip Secret

Every girl struggles to find that lip color that matches her perfectly. The procedure goes as follows: you try a thousand lipsticks, you ask people's opinions, you spend a fortune, only to find that it doesn't last as long as you want it to, it feathers, its texture dries your lips... etc etc. Well I've found the solution (in reality, my friend Selin did).
