It feels like winter break started just yesterday and yet here I am, packing up my stuff to head back to school. In all honesty, I definitely could have used another week or two to relax but oh well—ready to get after it and begin my junior year of college. In the meantime, I’ve been rearranging my bedroom, catching up with friends, eating lots of yummy food, and doing some car shopping. I’m happy to report we finally have a winner!

Sunday mornings are always chock full of blog work for me. After getting a new post and YouTube video published I got dressed and ready for a mid-day photo shoot with one of my sweet friends Meg. We were able to knock out six looks each and I love the way the photos turned out.

Madison and I headed to IKEA bright and early this morning to pick out some furniture for my new bedroom. It was so fun getting to walk through the showroom and share our shopping experience with you! She and my dad spent the entire evening putting together my furniture. The room is coming together so well—just a few finishing touches tomorrow and it’ll be good to go!

Spent the morning adding a few finishing touches to my bedroom and filling my dresser drawers. I am absolutely obsessed with how it turned out and was so excited to film my room tour this afternoon. Played a little bit of catch up too, writing blog posts and getting a few videos edited before bed.

Had myself a slow morning in my new bed writing today’s blog post and getting another IKEA video edited and sent over for review. I then packed up my Hunter duffle and picked Meg up for another afternoon photoshoot. It was beautiful out today which made picture taking a lot more fun. Chinese food for dinner tonight!

After a year of not seeing one another, (go away Covid 🥴) Mrs. Wentzlaff and I finally got to catch up. We had so much to chat about on our masked, five-mile hike. It’s been forever since I did any physical activity so it felt extra good to get out of the house this afternoon. I then met up with one of my sweet friends Corinne for dinner! My heart feels full tonight.

Up and at em bright and early this morning to look at another car. We came home empty-handed sadly but it didn’t keep me from having a good day. Hit 36K on YouTube this morning, went to lunch with Connor, and then out to dinner with the fam one last time all together. Had the yummiest sandwich at The Derby!

Had a few different calls to hop on this morning before going to look at another car. After weeks of looking, I finally found the one. I ended up with a Hyundai Santa Fe and am excited to bring it back to school with me in just a few days. My afternoon was spent filming another video and scrolling endlessly through Tik Tok.
