A few of my favorite things 1.  I'm fifteen and obsessed with glitter manis.  What the hell is wrong with me?  It's so much worse than you think… I actually need to restrain myself from going to the nearest store and buying myself some pink glitter nail polish… because that's clearly what is necessary and important in my life.

2.  Hai.  I went to Vegas last weekend and it was wonderful.  I sat outside in the sun and got tan and went swimming and drank frozen drinks and won money playing blackjack and slots.  I saw Britney Spears (who looks ahMAZing btw) and bought a shirt that says “It's Vegas Bitch.”  I cried when I left, not because I didn't want to leave Vegas, but because I didn't want to say goodbye to my mom.

3.  Being a grown up is the worst.  You move out/away and pay your own bills and have a gazillion dollars in student debt and have to pay attention to how you treat your body and life becomes real. 

4.  But I'm not so much of a grown up that I'm against eating hotdogs for every meal for an entire weekend straight.  Which just happens to be my memorial day weekend plan if the rain doesn't ruin my plans of camping on Orcas Island all weekend.  I might eat a few different things… maybe. 

5.  Also, I may just be the trashiest person I know.  I went to walmart to buy Sun-In (because target is too classy to carry it) so that I could lighten my hair without needing to pay $1,000,000 for highlights.  My hair dresser/second mother would be appaled, but I'm fairly certain she doesn't read this/know it exists. 

6.  And in case you were wondering, yes I did use it in Vegas and yes my hair IS a billion times lighter. 

7.  I'm on this huge kick of doing things that make you happy.  Creating your own happiness.  I feel like a lot of times we sit around and wait for happiness to happen TO us instead of making it happen.  I don't want to be that person anymore.  I think I need to make a vision board.

8.  This whole creating my own happiness thing is starting with a whole week at home in July.  I'm heading home for a week with family/friends and time with my boyfriend.  It's something I've been wanting to do but felt like I needed to save up my leave and now I'm just going for it.    

9.  The picture up top?  It a few of my favorite things right now.  UM.  yeah my macbook & kate spade case obvi.  the camelbak insulated filtering water bottle…. LOVE.  I have two of the brita ones that I also really like, but this one is amazing guys.  but really.  finally:  my cordito.  my new fave travel accessory.  I'm really kicking myself in the butt for not buying the cord tacos.  WHAT WAS I THINKING.  

10.  I'm dead without Nashville.  dead I tell you.  other than that, I haven't been watching much TV!  Do I have a fever?  Never fear, mistresses comes back on in a week or so and the new Orange is the New Black season comes out on the 6th I think and I still have a bajillion shows that i have on my list of shows to watch/get caught up on I'm just toooooo (say it with me) busy.  – I'm a broken record.

11.  Because nothing besides this seemed important enough to end on.
