You may recall (but probably not) that I did a "what's in your bag" post back in February. Well I just got my new Baggu bag in the mail the other day, so I thought I'd show it off!
Duck Bag in Coral, $24, from Baggu.
Bag contents - yellow shopping bag (folded into the pouch) by Baggu, Alternative Apparel zippered pouch for all my secret things+little things that I don't want swimming around on the bottom of my bag, envelope wallet from Hobby Lobby.
So far, I really love my new Baggu tote! The shoulder strap makes it more versatile, and the pocket on the inside of the bag is perfect for my chapstick and phone! I definitely would like to purchase another bag in a different color in the future. ALSO, check out their fabulous leather bucket bag:
My cat, Rooney. Even though she annoys me when I'm trying to sleep, I still love her. She's the best cat I could have ever adopted from the ARL!
Baggu bags. I just ordered both a shopping bag & the tote. Can't wait to get them! The shopping bag folds up into that small pouch that conveniently fits into almost any purse.
I'm a sucker for period shows/movies (I'm watching it as we speak). I love history so much, but it's crazy to me how life used to be. Class systems, separate stairs, kitchens, and quarters for the service staff, the lack of women's rights. I will say, however, that the clothing from that period is amazing and beautiful, for both the men & the women.
Summer Woodchuck, which I discovered 2 months too late. It's only available April-July, and they've already pulled it from the shelves at Gateway Market :(
So You Think You Can Dance. My favorite summer show since season 2. I'm so jealous that my body doesn't move like that.
My new layout! It's just a (simple) new header & a new template, but it's brighter & cheerier than my last layout & that makes me happy.
I just rewatched the sectionals episode of the most recent season of Glee, where they sing "We Are Young" at the end. Even though I'm so so so sick of that song, watching/listening to this version gave me goosebumps.
When I think back to my high school years, I don't cringe, or feel so glad that I'm past that stage in my life. In fact, I often wish I could go back. Sure, there were times when I thought my world was ending (it was usually because the boy I had a crush on liked my best friend instead of me), but for the most part I loved my high school experience. I went to a tiny high school (seriously, there were only 23 people in my graduating class), I had great friends, and was involved in many different things. Sports were a big part of my life, and it's definitely one of the things I miss most about being in high school. I still have dreams that I'm in high school, at a softball or basketball game, but there's usually something wrong, like I forget part of my uniform and then am late for the game so I have to sit out. What do you think that means? I also miss having a core group of friends, that were always around. Most of us have drifted apart in the 8 years since I graduated high school, Yep, I just aged myself there. Yikes. but there are a few people that I still consider my best friends. The only thing now is that we all live in different places, and lead very different lives. It's not as easy to keep in touch, and for the most part I only get to see them during holidays or occasions that bring us all back to our hometown. It makes me sad, but I guess that's the reality of growing up.
Anyways, the end of that episode always brings back all those memories and makes me feel nostalgic/a little sad that things will never be like they were when I was 17 ever again. Why was I always so excited to get older? It baffles me, now.
