A New Look...

What do you think of my new blog design?? I absolutely LOVE it!!! My fabulous friends, Grace and Beth, gave me a new blog design as a birthday gift and it's an awesome gift. It was so much fun to make all of the decisions and Erin at Designer Blogs was such a PLEASURE to work with...I would recommend them to anyone who wants a fun new blog design!!!! I think having this new design even gives me more inspiration to write posts more often :) I hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I do!!!!

Kid at heart!

I know it may be childish (b/c my 10 yr old niece and 7 yr old nephew have them) but I REALLY want a Nintendo DS. I've been dying to play that Brain Age game for probably a year now. I'm such a nerd...I think school is bringing out the brainiac in me :) So, if anyone wants to send one of these little babies my way, I'd gladly accept!!

2 months from today...

I'm obsessed, I'll be the first to admit it. I LOVE the Twilight books. And, I couldn't be more excited about the quickly approaching release of New Moon. 2 months from today, November 20th, the much anticipated movie will be released. I, along with many girlfriends, will be in attendance that night. We're planning a New Moon party beforehand and then we'll all head to watch the drama that is New Moon unfold on screen. I. CAN'T. WAIT. I just found out that tickets are already on sale for that night and as soon as I have a quick consulation with one of my partners in crime for the evening we'll be purchasing our tickets! SO EXCITED!!! Anyone else feel the same way about this?? I mean, I am 27 now but I don't even care...I'll be right in there with all the 13 year old girls oohing and aahhhing at the screen :)

Happy Birthday...

...TO ME!!! Yep, today is the big 2-7. I dont know why, but saying I'm 27 just feels a lot different than when I turned 26. Oh well, gotta get older! I'll update what the weekend held in a couple of days :)

Why I love Fall...

I love fall for many reasons. I love the weather, it's perfect. I love the leaves changing, it makes everything so pretty! I love the fall scented candles - give me anything pumpkin scented and I'll be a happy girl. I love hot chocolate, the temperature starts to drop low enough at night that I can enjoy that treat :)

But, one of my most favorite things about fall.....FALL TV SEASON PREMIERES!!!!!! Tonight, is no exception with 2 of my favorites. LOVE LOVE LOVE One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl. I'm not yet sure how I feel about One Tree Hill without Lucas and Peyton, but I did enjoy tonights premiere. It was as entertaining and drama-filled as ever! What are your favorite fall shows?? This is just my Monday night lineup :)

Happy Birthday!

This post is a little late, I thought I had scheduled it, but I did not....SOOOOOOOO, a belated

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my friend, Beth! She celebrated the big 2-7 yesterday (the 7th). I am quickly following behind her, as my birthday is on the 19th of this month...yikes! So, again

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BETH!!! Hope you had a great day :)

GO HOKIES!!!!

Tomorrow marks the beginning of it all...College Football Season!!!! My Hokies are playing in Atlanta and taking on Alabama! It will be a tough game, but it should be a good one. I'm jealous that many of my friends are in Atlanta for the game. I wish I could be there! Unfortunately, being in school leaves me with NO money...but I will be right in front of the tv cheering them on all night long! Some friends of mine are having a luau and at 8pm we'll move to in front of the tv :) So, yay for football season being here....I can smell fall and Hokie football in the air :) GOOOOOOO HOKIESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

Another semester done!

My 2nd semester of Nursing school is OFFICIALLY over! yaaaaaaaay....I survived another one! 2 down, 5 to go. I passed with flying colors and am ready to move onto Nursing 102....however, I'm looking forward to the mini 2 week break I get before that. I'll be taking 1 niece and 2 nephews to PA to visit some our family for a few days. It definitely won't be an action packed "vacation" but I'm looking forward to just getting away. BUT, first I have to get better AGAIN! That's right, I'm sick again.... I have some sort of virus, i've had a fever that has hovered between 100.3 and 101.8. Yesterday it was down for a little bit and this morning it seems to be sticking around 98, but I'm not out of the woods yet! So, I'll probably be spending the whole day in bed resting, with these ladies...

They always make me feel better! Apparently I'm a germ factory these days.

So, here's to getting better!

I have a secret. I LOVE the Kardshians, they crack me up. Their summer special promises to be just as entertaining as Keeping Up With the Kardashians. I love watching useless television...its the only time I can really forget about school and all its stressors and just relax and laugh! Yay for another fun Sunday night show!

Friday Fun

With College football season quickly approaching, I couldn't help but share...

I am totally a Miller Lite drinker, but will put that aside to sport these fabulous

VT Orange and Maroon

Bud Light cans this football season! Apparently they'll be sold at Kroger this fall!!

Who will you be rooting for this fall??

I'm a Hokie through and through and proud of it!!!
