University of Virginia


University of Virginia Class of 2018!!!

I am so so excited to share with you this great news! I had an incredibly difficult decision to make--after being in love with University of Pennsylvania since my sophomore year in high school, I didn't think anything could sway me. Less than a month ago, for the first time ever, I visited UVa and fell in love. I was there for almost a week competing for a scholarship (I GOT IT!) and I am so so lucky to get to call such a wonderful place home next year. Although I loved Penn, I know I made the right decision and have already made a ton of friends who will be my classmates at UVa next year.

I can't wait to tell you more about the program I'm a part of, but for now,

WAHOOWA, WAHOOWA, UNI-V, VIR-GIN-I-A, HOO-RAH-RAY, HOO-RAH-RAY, RAY! RAY! U-V-A!

(mad props if you get that last line which just looks like gibberish. If you want it to sound like gibberish, google "The Good Old Song" and see how fast they sing it!)

Decisions Decisions

First of all I'd like to apologize for my three week hiatus...I've been so busy and so stressed and so happy and so sad all at once!


That is until yesterday, when everything but the happiness fell away and I had the absolute best day of my life. 

Next year I'll be going to my dream school. Can you guess where I chose???

Here was the list of schools I was choosing from. If you guess correctly I'll link your blog in my next post! CAN'T WAIT TO SHARE THE HAPPY NEWS WITH YOU GUYS!!

Which college did I choose?

I'm so happy that it's finally warming up! My legs and feet are so so pale, so naturally I now want it to be summer aka tanning weather, but hey, I can't complain!
After a brutal winter here in the Northeast, Spring has never felt so great. I love welcoming it in with such cute springy dresses!!!

And so begins one of the most exciting weeks of my life. It seems that everything I've worked for has led me to the decisions I'll be receiving in these next few days. But first, I'm headed off to one of the prettiest college towns in the country to compete for something big.

Stay tuned to hear about where I'm going and why I'm going there.

Joules

All my life, I've had problems with rainboots. The stiffness has never felt quite right on my feet, or the rubber has not been waterproof enough, or they just don't fit me the way rainboots are supposed to. But then, I was introduced to these women's rainboots from Joules...and I am never going back. These are the perfect color, the perfect fit, super elegant for a pair of rubber boots (and that's hard to do am I right??), PLUS they have a cute pattern inside and a colored stripe up the back. I didn't highlight the stripe this time, but don't worry, I have an outfit post on it's way this week that will really do the stripe justice :) 

So far, I've worn these in the snow, in the rain, and yup, on a dry sunny day. I have no shame. I'm in love.
