Happy Pants

Don't worry....BE HAPPY!

Ah it's finals week, well technically my finals don't start until Thursday but that's still part of the week! Finals week for me usually means stressing out, throwing basic hygiene out the window and not caring what I look like.  I've decided to abolish those negativities and cary on about my week as usual.

This sudden burst of positivity is probably because I only have 2 finals and all of my projects were finished and turned in last week.  The only final I'm nervous about is my Geography final on Friday.  I'm so bad at science related things it isn't even funny....that's probably why I'm a communication major and not an engineer. 

Regardless, I'm taking everything in stride and staying my usual happy self this week. I hope everyone can look at the positive side of things as the semester nears an end!!!

I'm hoping to embrace some creativity and document this week in photos (yay Instagram!)

Oh Instagram, if you aren't you should totally follow me! My username is: melliott804

We'll see how that goes. Usually I forget or get self-conscious taking pictures of my coffee or doughnut. Oh that reminds me, free doughnuts at work this week!

I think I missed them today but I still get coffee and tea tonight at work!

Blog Obsessed!

Ok....I'm a little blog obsessed.

I've been messing around with this thing all day. I've been exploring other blogs for information, creating a snazzy signature and a grab button for anyone who wants to show me a little love.

I'm trying to figure out this whole HTML code thing and make my site a little more aesthetically pleasing. Anyone who knows anything about coding or has any suggestions please don't hesitate to drop me a comment or an email. 

Procrastination Central

After writing my post on study tips I decided to take my own advice and bundle up for my trek across campus to the library.  

Pardon my incredibly messy and unorganized closet

Studying is so difficult when you have no motivation. I was mostly people watching and thinking of pretty much anything that I would rather be doing.

I somehow managed to finish the majority of my study guide for my Physical Geography exam on Friday and only got on Facebook twice! Go me!

Such a hard worker

Don't you just love how decorative my notes are

I admit I looked a little ridiculous adding hearts and stars all over my notes but I can't help it if I like them to look pretty!

As for music I stuck to some Wiz Khalifa and Macklemore. Something about hip hop just gets me in the mood to learn about alluvial fans and meandering streams.

My motivation to finish this study guide is at a 0 right now. I honestly don't see how knowing the characteristics of an arid climate or what a drainage basin is will make me a better person or student.

Tips For Surviving Finals!

Finals are upon us! My finals week starts tomorrow but I don't have finals until Thursday, which gives me plenty of time to procrastinate with a blog post!

Graduation weekend and Finals!

It's SNOWING!!!! Ahhhh I'm so excited! It has only snowed once this winter so it's about time we get some snow! We didn't get a lot and it's been bitter cold today but I'm still happy!

My baby girl loves the snow - this picture was taken during the last snow fall...

Roxi LOVES the snow but unfortunately I was just to busy today to take her out to play. I'm hoping we will get more so that she can go enjoy herself!

This weekend was graduation. Unfortunately, I didn't graduate (totally overrated) but my BFF Megan did! We drove to Cheyenne to celebrate with her at the Cadillac Ranch. It was SO much fun!

Megan and I (yes my best friend and I have the same name)

Monday marks the start of finals week.  Fortunately I only have 2 finals at the end of the week so I have all week to procrastinate studying.

I carry a little motivation around with me to keep my spirits up and get through the end of the semester.

My (imaginary) boyfriend is just so sweet!

Oh Ryan....you know just want to say to keep me going!
