Long time no see!

Good morning kiddies... I am finished with finals..and thus, the rest of my semester consists of returning library books and packing to leave *sad face* [although I will still be in England].

While this has been an amazing, full of life-changing experiences and inspiration, I am pretty eager to get some rest; it was a pretty exhausting term! I can honestly say however, that I will always cherish this experience and the people that I have come in contact with over here...

And, with the end of this crazy chapter in my life in sight [and loads of free time], I thought you could use some pretty...

“For every finish-line tape a runner breaks - complete with the cheers of the crowd and the clicking of hundreds of cameras - there are the hours of hard and often lonely work that rarely gets talked about.”-Grete Waitz

“Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other.”-Walter Elliot

 

“The finish line is just the beginning of a whole new race.”-Unknown

“But for each of us, isn't life about determining your own finish line?”-Diana Nyad

“If you set a goal for yourself and are able to achieve it, you have won your race. Your goal can be to come in first, to improve your performance, or just to finish the race - it's up to you.”-Dave Scott

Have a great day! More posts to come!

*exhaustion

***

If any of you readers have been following since the conception of this blog, you will probably know that I usually post pretty regularly.

However, with the end of the semester coming up, I've had a lot of work [and a lot less sleep] so, unfortunately, I think the exhaustion is setting in.

Your long awaited daily pretty, which maybe isn't so pretty..haha, is an ode to what I've looked like this week. [ok..maybe not that fabulous]

Enjoy!

Hopefully I get a lot of posts done before finals!

Happy December kiddies!

Morning kiddies!

I know it's been a while since I've posted and I really am being a delinquent blogger..but this week has been so utterly hectic for me...

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about you guys. I have thought about you every day that I didn't post...but school work, unfortunately, comes first...

Anyway, second set of papers in, and I've got about two weeks before the crazy starts again.

As a result, all I want to do right now is catch up on my missing sleep, which is another reason why I've been pretty neglectful of the blog.

Now that I'm rested, some daily pretty?

Can you guess the theme? :)
