6 weeks. and 8 days.

Today is 6 weeks without coffee or red meat, both an addiction of mine.
Today is also 8days until my 21st birthday and I couldn't be anymore excited.
..and since we are counting down days, it's 3 days until my "sister-in-law-to-be"'s bacholorette party.
10 days until my brothers lovely wedding and 15 days until my roommate, Lacey and I leave for a much needed vacation to Las Vegas with my parents.
This upcoming fall is going to be amazing.

10 Fall goals :
-Eat healthier to lose 10 pounds by December
-Start one savings account for traveling and one for savings!
-Weekend in Portland, (Brewery tasting)
-Stay the night in Bellingham and hike
-Photograph EVERYTHING!
-Go to at least 3 haunted houses then carve pumpkins with friends!
-Blog twice a week, but shoot for four times.
-Get my passport
-Register for school
-Buy a new phone

Sounds doable to me.

ANOTHER LIST!

I keep thinking of all these different things I want but then I go and buy them myself, all of the sudden I don't even know what I want for my birthday anymore and now i'm actually being asked what I would like... I told my mom, VEGAS! I told my dad I wanted braces.... I think, I hope that I received both of them. I know I'm going to Vegas...  I just want records, my iphone5 and gift cards. I don't know! Too much is going on right now, I haven't received my bridesmaids dress yet. I am in a wedding in two weeks, my birthday is next Thursday. My moms birthday is also next Thursday. I have a party to plan, a bachelorette party to go to. I need to find shoes for the wedding and shoes for Las Vegas. I have to buy another plane ticket for my roommate and pay my bills before I go on vacation. I also have anxiety about these next two weeks not coming fast enough! AHHH! So much is happening, I'm going crazy! On top of it all, I work every day until then!

my season is coming

All though I love Summer, I am ready for the fall fashion. It's when I dress best, considering I don't have a bikini bod and I am not comfortable in shorts... therefore, I am ready for slouchy sweaters, long sleeves, boot cut jeans and BOOTS! I want all of these! My birthday is coming up and I leave for Vegas soon! I am so excited for this season. I have a new job, and it will be so nice not working in the mall for the holidays... I won't go crazy spending money on food and clothes that I don't need. I can then save for shoes I actually want. I better start soon, it sucks being a size 9.

Summer nights

I stole my parents fire pit back in July and for the first few sunny weeks I had that fire rocking! We had some get together's and we saw some really crazy weather at night. A lot of unusual lightening storms. It was pretty cool. I can't wait until I have my own home when I can have a big in ground fire pit and a gathering area... or "tribal counsel" area as some like to call it. I keep envisioning my backyard with this jacuzzi and pool. I want this great patio area for dining and a built in barbeque/kitchen area. I know i'll have that someday, with some great view of the ocean, I really need to get my college gears rolling and start focusing on this future of mine.

Photo Diva

I've realized I love taking photos of myself at night which actually isn't a good thing because I always look really creepy at night...

Papa's 80th
