Little Pieces of Happy

it's tuesday. yuck. tuesday is typically my least favorite day of the week, but today hasn't been all that bad. Since it's tuesday, though, i decided that i would list some things that make me happy (to make the tuesday-ness of today disappear a little).

1. i will be here very soon. i will be a freshman at wake forest this coming fall, and i am SO excited!!! i'm just dying to know who my roommate is.

2. new girl comes on tonight! plus, i haven't watched last week's episode so that means double new girl for this girl!! let's just say i'm a little jess obsessed.

3. my mom just decorated for Easter, and let me tell you i adore our Easter decorations. not trying to brag or anything, but they're pretty darn cute. here are some examples: 

4. reading this blog. i started reading the rockstar diaries a few months ago and i LOVE it. i feel like i know these people (& wish that i did)..they're the cutest little family ever. 

5. eating (too many of) these dark chocolate covered blueberries. they're so scrumptious.

well, that's all i've got for today, folks. have a wonderful rest of the week..and happy Easter!!
peace & blessins.

Happy Friday!

Fridays are the greatest. Especially when it's been such a long week (I think it's like a requirement or something for the week after spring break to be exceptionally long). This Friday was great because i got to spend some much needed quality time with some of my girls (shoutout to Kelly, Emily, and Chan: love y'all to the moon!!). And although I was really hoping that I would get to sleep in tomorrow, instead I will be getting up at the crack of dawn to work at the Rumpshaker 5k race. Yes, that's it's real name. And I get why it's called that because it's for colon cancer research...I'm just not quite sure how I feel about wearing a t-shirt that says "Rumpshaker" on it with a picture of a butt. But it's for a good cause, right? In other news, I'm planning on FINALLY seeing The Hunger Games tomorrow. I think that I might be the only person on the face of the earth who hasn't yet seen this movie. How hipster of me. But i have been DYING to see it and hope that it lives up to my (high) expectations. And here are two reasons why I'm super pumped: 

 

Love them. I have to admit, I am Team Peeta, but Liam Hemsworth...well, enough said. 

Some other happenings in my life right now:

52 days til graduation

88 more days til SOUTH AFRICA

EEEEEEEEPPP I CAN BARELY CONTAIN MYSELF.   

 So many fun things are coming up in the near future, and while I'm so excited about this summer and heading off to college, I really don't want to wish away my last 7 weeks of high school (oh my word. can't believe I just said that. 7 weeks. Craziness. I am absolutely ecstatic about being a Demon Deacon, but I definitely want to enjoy every moment. Cliche, I know. But true. 

Well, that is all for tonight. Peace out, girl scouts (and boy scouts too..I don't discriminate). 

Here Goes Nothing...

It’s official: I have entered the blogging world. Or is it the blog world? Yikes! looks like i’m already struggling. Needless to say, constructive criticism is much appreciated.

     Anywho.. I once heard that people tend to be most creative late at night, so in an attempt to get my creative juices flowing last night, I made a blog. We’ll see how this works out. In other news, I am currently suffering from senioritis (if anyone knows the cure, call me maybe definitely). Oh and I’m also currently listening to “Call Me Maybe” on repeat. I’m just a wee bit obsessed with that song at the moment. A few other obsessions I currently have: 

 1. hiking

 2. the Fun. pandora station

 3. sea foam green nail polish

 4. chocolate covered blueberries

 5. just dance 3

Random list, I know. This is what happens when I’m struggling to create a first blog post. Now for an explanation of the blog title. Here’s a hint: it’s really nerdy. STILL haven't guessed it after that helpful hint? Ok, I'll tell you...It’s from a quote by the one and only Thomas Jefferson:

“But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.”

I just love this quote because it’s about two of my favorite things: friends and sunshine! Oh, and I’m also a little bit of a history nerd (therefore, Thomas Jefferson=historical figure=awesomeness). Well, enough about the blog title. You get the picture. I’m thinking that’s enough for my first blog post. More to come..maybe?

Peace & blessins,

Sarah (a baby blogger)
