Plan Ahead
Planners are pretty much crucial to my survival at school. I consider my self mildly OCD because I write down everything that I need to do. Always. For every. single. day. I like to keep my lists privately tucked away in my little planner because most of what I write is just plain weird. Plus, I have the handwriting of a 4-year-old boy (good thing blogs are typed.)
My roommate started noticing my lists pretty soon after living with me. I have them all over my planner, as well as on sticky notes on my desks. She began making jokes about how I viciously cross out everything once I'm done. #Embarrassing.
I also write lists in my phone. Sometimes I catch my boyfriend looking through my phone, and unlike most boys, he does not even peek at my texts. Nope, he goes straight to my lists, so he can make fun of them. Though I use my phone as a planner sometimes, I still insist on getting a real planner each year so I can write down every assignment, test date, etc. I have a fear that if I put it on my computer or my phone, it would accidentally get deleted. I know I could also lose my planner, but (knock on wood,) that has never happened.
Since planners are clearly an important part of my life, I prefer if they're a little fashionable, as well as functional. It's back to school time in just one week, (where did the summer go?) and here are some of the best planners I've found.
This Kate Spade planner is obviously adorable...but $82.00 for a planner? and that's the sale price?? maybe in another lifetime.... Here are some more affordable options... |
$17.00 |
$10.00 $24.00 |
Target also had some cute ones in store similar to the Kate Spade planner, but I couldn't find them online.

back in action
So, I haven't blogged in a while. This is probably the longest I've gone without doing a post since I started this blog a year ago. I've been really busy, exhausted and sort of lacking inspiration for posts.
BUT
last week was my 21st birthday (woo) and my boyfriend got me an awesome Nikon camera.
I am waiting for the memory card I ordered to come in, so I haven't been able to take too many pictures yet, but I wanted to share the ones I did take.
My attempts to be artsy....

Taking a picture reflecting off of my computer screen If you can't tell, I really like the black and white function on this camera... |
