I'll be seeing you

    

                                                                               Well, it's been one week since I said goodbye to my best friend. I was prepared, I was ready, I had made my peace with it, but as soon as we started to drive away, I lost it. The thought of Ben being 4 hours away this year suddenly became real, and this week it's been my reality. When I'm busy, it's easy. It's almost like nothing's changed, but when I'm bored, sadness takes over. It's weird to think that we didn't have our annual first day of school breakfast, that we won't be going on dates, that he won't be here to rub my back when I've had a bad day, that I can't just see him whenever I want, and that he's really, truly not here. It's going to take some getting used to and some hard work, but I know we can do it. I know it because when we facetimed tonight (thank God for technology!!!) it was like nothing changed. We laughed, we teased, we told stories. I know we'll make it because my boyfriend may be four hours away, but he's still my best friend. He's still loving me, pursuing me, and making me laugh even if we're not in the same town. So long distance? Bring it on! 

Fashion

Here are some of my favorite of my fashion moments over the summer. I'm really trying to experiment more with clothes and wear what makes me happy versus what is "in". I sure did get a lot of wear out of my high-waisted shorts though!

Time flies!

Well, I started this blog 100% dedicated and ready to take it on. Then, life happened. I had a very busy summer, but as school is starting back and I'm looking for new ways to procrastinate, I've decided to give this blog another try. Here's a snippet of what you missed!
