Today is officially the last day of reading week. Now as grateful as I am that we even get a break at this period in the semester at all, I feel like that very brief hiatus wasn't at all that necessary. lol. But I was able to catch up on things that I hardly have the time for while the tests and assignments accumulate, like getting together with friends and going out for a drink or somethin' without that guilty conscience constantly reminding me of all the work I've got to do. Also, I just bought a new sketchbook that I've been filling rather quickly, and my sister and I have been building a list of projects that I'll soon be able to share with you guys as soon as those come to fruition. And they will. I have big plans for 2010. :*)

So I woke up today and could not be more happy to see the sun shining ever so brightly once again! It's days like these where I honestly can't wipe this huge smile off my face. The sun always makes me feel refreshed and renewed in a way... anxious to see what good things this [sunny] day will bring.

Thank you to everyone for all of your kind words of love and support!

Aritzia is Love.

I just received an e-mail from Aritzia's Candy Soo informing me that they made a mini feature for me on the site's blog! :) I am SO SO ridiculously exciteddd and flattered beyond words and I feel more motivated than ever to keep up with my blog posts and try my very best to make each post better than the last.

P.S. I'm on reading week so expect another post this week! :)

xoxo,

Hello blogger world :*) Pls forgive my lack of update over the past few weeks! I'm happy to announce that I will have many more posts soon enough to keep things interesting for y'aaall.

As per usual, school has taken over my life and I feel as though my mind can never have even a second of rest. There is always something to stress over and it can be very straining. But the truth is, I do like to keep busy.

You can probably tell by now just how much I love my comfy cardis :).. especially during Winter and Fall! The one I'm wearing in this post is my latest purchase from Aritzia. I'm already living in it.

Valentine's Day is creeping up on us. I plan to have dinner with my one true love & best friend, my sister :) Hope all of you and your loved ones have a very love-filled Valentine's weekend! Thank you ALL again soo much for reading!

xoxo,

Ally
