orange cup

a good day to me is finding out about new places that i never had a clue about. well today was a pretty good day. after lunch with one of my best girl friends she took me to this amazing yogurt place called orangecup. when we pulled up to the place the whole environment just had me grinning from ear to ear. as you walk in it feels you're walking on top of a cloud the place is so pure and white. the frozen yogurt itself is light, smooth and totally healthy. you can also add as many toppings you'd like and they are also perfect for the complete health nut. they also print out your order with all the nutritional content on the side of your bowl. i will definitely be coming back here on weekends.

mid-week jam session

i recently just made my workout more hardcore than what it usually is so i can get ready for bikini season. any time i feel like giving up or i can't make it i just put on tobacco and everything gets so much easier. this psychedelic, electronic indie pop sound just takes over my whole body and just pushes me to go further. this particular album is just great for anything. whether your working out and pushing it to the limit or it could be peaceful droning background noise while your cruising late night in your car or doing something else.

lately the weather here has been so UGH! on my day off from work i decided to venture out in this twisted, confused southern weather to the mall and to the university to talk to an advisor about classes. since i didn't want to spend my day with soaking wet pants i figured rolled up carpi's was the way to go. sad thing is i spent so much time at the mall i didn't even make to up to the school to talk to anyone, but at least i looked good ;]

summer nails

on a daily basis i am always stopped and asked about what color my nails are or where i got my nail polish at. i love love love nail polish! every week my nail color changes. i cant walk into a store without going into the nail section. i realized i had an addiction when i went into ULTA and everybody knew my name. i want to share with you my 5 favorite colors that are just perfect for this summer and that are totally affordable for all the cheap chicas out there.

tuna salad

lately ive been craving different types of salads. spinach salads, chicken salads even potato salads but nothing seemed to satisfy my craving. so i decided to take matters into my own hands and make the perfect summer meal. since i have a million cans of tuna in the pantry, i got a can of tuna and added cilantro, red onions, green peppers and mayo, mixed it up and stuffed it into a wheat pita. i also chopped up a green apple as a nice side to the meal. this dish is such a good addition to a lovely summer and gets me so excited for afternoons in the park, walking around downtown or just relaxing on the patio soaking in the summer breeze.

mid-week jam session

for like the past two weeks minus the bear has been my main topic of discussion. ever since i was 14 years old minus the bear has always been my favorite band. ive seen them live 4 times and they never seem to let me down. last friday they come to the house of blues and performed and on may 4 they dropped their new album OMNI which is just pure genius. OMNI has a different sound than their past albums but it still has that MTB touch and lyrical sound that makes you fall even hard in love with the band. my personal favorite on this album is "excuses" which bleeds a groove and vibe that is hard and yet melodic to the soul.

history final

Jacket: Old Navy Top: Forever21 Shorts: Alloy Wedges: Urban Outfitters Purse: Forever21

well i'm back to make a new post. this past week i've been swamped with work and studying for finals. today i had my history final and was totally stressing about it so i decided to dress up a bit to make me feel better and ease my mind. since its like a million degrees in the south i chose my favorite boyfriend shorts and a cute stripey top. i added a boyfriend jacket on top because my teacher tends to keep the classroom like an icebox and i threw on the suede wedges for a little extra edge.
