Snow!

I woke up to possibly the best thing ever (besides being in my bed at home)! SNOW! Everything was covered in a fluffy heavy blanket of snow! As much as I love summer sun and sweet tea, I also love winter. Get the right coat, boots, and gloves and there is no reason to dislike it. With this snow, it is also totally appropriate to break out the Bean boots.  Nothing makes me happier than having warm toes with some hunting socks and Bean boots. Weather like this is also the perfect excuse to curl up in fleece-lined leggings, enjoy a venti dark roast, and finish up some term papers! And, when I finish working on homework today, I'll get to go see little grey horse. With this snow and my impending brain-deadness, I think I'll have to have a perfect, quiet, snowy trail-ride!

Routine and Comfort

Surprise, I graduate in a few months! Four years ago I was in the exact same place I am now- comfortable.  I have my daily routine and know exactly what I am doing for the next week.  But, I don't know what I'm doing past May.  I never really prepared myself for the new territory of college, so it was a shock to my system whenever I got here.  Three years later, I am settled into my life on campus.  But that is coming to an end.  So, to prepare myself for post-grad life, I am working to push my comfort zone and do things I wouldn't usually do, like get a fur vest (faux, of course), and make a blog! I want to keep some form of record of my dwindling undergrad days, so when I'm probably in a panic in a year, I can look back and see how I've grown.
