Tips for a Quicker Morning-

Hi everyone!

As I’ve said before, I love back to school season. I can’t wait to start classes again in my own organized space and get back into my academic groove. However, there are a couple of things that come with the beginning of a new school year that I am not ready for. One of those things is having early mornings.

Naturally, I wake up around 6:30-7:00 am each morning. In the summer or during breaks, I can get myself back to sleep, but during the school year, I usually have ten or so minutes before my alarm goes off. Then, it’s go time. Even though my body is awake, my mind is nowhere near that state, so I’m dragging all morning before I look at the clock and realize I’m almost late. I absolutely hate being late, so I’ve had to learn a few tricks to keep myself efficient when I’d rather be dreaming.

My Grownup Checklist

Hey everyone!

Aside from it being back-to-school season, this month of August is particularly exciting to me because it's my last month as a teenager. On September 5 at precisely 12:25 pm, I will officially be a twentysomething! I'm looking forward to the next stage of my life as an almost-adult.

Of course, as I get older, I start prioritizing different things in my life. I'm starting to think more seriously about things like careers and credit and not so much about celebrity couples and reality television (really, who am I kidding?). With all that being said, I thought today I'd share my "Grownup Checklist."

August Wishlist

(click the items to be redirected. For the earrings and print)

Hey everyone!

It's finally August! That means at the end of this long month, I will be headed back to Georgetown to start my sophomore year. To say I'm ready to begin would be a massive understatement because the back-to-school season is probably my favorite time of the year. This month's wishlist includes some room decor, fall inspired fashion and beauty items, and BOOKS. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to get back into reading. Maybe a post solely about my book picks is in the future.

Anyway, good luck to all you headed back to school soon! Make lists, pack efficiently, and stick to your goals this semester, but remember progress is the main goal. See you all soon!
