Hello everyone!
Oh my word have I missed you...the past few days have been crazy. I started working and it feels like I actually live there now. I work tomorrow morning and all day Saturday and Sunday, as well. Before I picked my job back up again, I feel like I didn't realize how blessed I was to have all the free time in the world to blog. Blogging is one of the things I love most in life. It keeps me sane. It keeps me grounded. It keeps me inspired. It keeps me, well, alive. Not physicaly, but mentally. I just feel so much more mentally stable and satisfied when I can blog. Going out into nature and snapping pictures, coming here as a sort of 'online diary' and getting to interact and be inspired by hundreds of lovely people. I don't think I could ever give up blogging.

Work has been good though. At times it's fast paced and at time it's slow and dull. It's hard for me sometimes because I want to be a control freak and make everyone happy but you know what I'm learning? Sometimes you just can't. I can't make the other hostesses, servers, customers, managers, and myself happy every day, all the time. I need to focus on what I can do and not what's out of my control. Something I'm definitely learning- the hard way.
I picked up quite the little bundle of clothing at the thrift store the other day for $10 and this is one of the dresses I got! I love it so, so much. It reminds me of a dress Audrey H. would wear. So, I dressed up and pretended like I was her for a day. Shucks, who wouldn't want to be?
Speaking of Audrey, I got a package from Barnes and Noble that I ordered with a gift card and got a huge poster of her for my dorm room. So perfect! I also ordered a new journal (mine is almost full since I write every night), a Vera Bradley ID holder (for my Kent Card), and a copy of 50 Shades of Gray. I heard it's good. Have you all read it yet? I started it at the pool earlier today and am just getting into it!
Hope you all are swell ❤
With much love, Lauren.
