Senior Year+September Bullet Journal

Source

I am as shocked as you are. I can't believe it is already my senior year of college. It doesn't feel real and I definitely don't feel like a senior, but my goal is to enjoy this year as much as possible! I moved in last weekend (post featuring my apartment and decor to come) and I have spent most of my time unpacking and organizing my apartment with my roommates as well as getting used to my class schedule.

Since September is the start of Pumpkin Spice season (Yay!) I have personally already declared it autumn as well. So the theme of my bullet journal spread for the month is autumn. I tried to stay away from halloween doodles so that I can save those for October. But when it comes to leaves, football, and fall foods and goodies I am all ready!


My journal features most of the same pages as in previous months (thats kind of the point) but I actually added two new pages. One is a "Last Time I..." page and I will use this to keep track of things I do that I would want specific dates for, that I otherwise wouldn't remember (such as last time I changed my toothbrush head or last time I changed my bedding, stuff like that). I also added an Autumn Bucket List. Now I don't expect to accomplish all of these this month, because some of them I would need to do in Ohio or October so I will be referring to this bucket list from September to November. If this goes well this could be a page I add for each season.


The fact that my life as a student is coming to an end is super exciting but also super scary. I'm hoping the skills I have learned up till now have prepared me well enough for the future. And while my life after graduation is something I have anxiety about, right now I am just trying to enjoy the moment I'm in (Who cannot enjoy autumn?!) and make some memories to last a lifetime.

How do you feel about the fall? Have you already ordered pumpkin everything? Let me know in the comments!

Starting With the Basics

Image
For my first official blog post I decided to start with a classic. And what is more basic and classic than a white button down shirt and jeans. I love the casual breeziness of this look and the fact that is it a true classic staple. I decided to amp up this look with a bold red lip and a large floppy hat.  This look is also perfect for this springtime, when the weather is nice but you're not quite ready for shorts and a tank just yet.  One thing you should know about me now, is that I always like to have fun with style. Whether it's fun prints, statement accessories, or bold makeup I will always do my best to bring my look up a notch but still feel comfortable and confident in my look. Because honestly it doesn't matter if you are wearing the most basic or out there thing, if you wear it with confidence you will always shine!  Tell me some of your favorite classic pieces? What is a item that you think will never go out of style? Feel free to comme...

My Fall Break: Doing All Things Autumn in One Weekend

Image
Ya this is about a week late, sorry but I've been pretty busy (sadly my senior thesis isn't going to write itself) But I did recently have a great Fall Break back in Ohio. During this break I succeeded in my goal to do all things Fall related. I arrived Friday night, so first on Saturday I went to the farmers market with my friend Jess. Also on Saturday my dad and I went to the Ohio State game (my first time actually attending an OSU game if you can believe it). It was so much fun we walked around beforehand and checked out the tailgating scene. Going to Loyola I miss out on football tailgating so it was great to experience it. We also saw the marching band perform before the game which was also a great experience. The actual game was a lot of fun, even though it was pretty stressful. Even though it was 80 degrees it was still a perfect fall activity. Also that weekend my family and I went to a corn maze and market. The corn maze itself was fun (not very decorated or diffi...

Im Back Baby!

Goodbye Ohio Hello Chicago! It feels so great to be back in the city to start another school year. Junior year honestly creeped up on me so quickly I'm still in shock. Every year I'm worried about adjusting back to city life after a whole summer back in my home town and every year the second I get back I am right back in the swing of things city views I can't wait to see what this school year has in store for me. New classes, New internships, Friends old and new, and New experiences galore. Be ready for more posts coming up where I give a tour of my new crib (best decor yet), showcase my new work wardrobe, try my hand at cooking, and just share new experiences in this city I have chosen to become home. And FYI Ohio is still home to me (It is possible to have more than 1 home) 1st day of classes outfit Also I am a person who focuses more on School Year Resolutions, as opposed to New Years Resolution. This year my resolutions are to focus on my own happiness and ...
