Waiting For My Blue Sky

P1020831

.. so I'll wear blue, instead!  Pretty simple outfit, but I loved the shades of blue and brown.  It's been raining and cloudy the past few days, but at least it isn't freezing..!  It's restaurant week here in Virginia Beach, and since our Starbucks met our VIA goal (VIA is gross FYI..), corporate gave our store $500 to do what we wanted with it.  We went to an Italian restaurant called Fire and Vine and the leftover money was donated to Haiti.

Earlier in the day (I'm referring to Friday, by the way.. I'm a little behind), I went out to lunch with a friend who is also in the Speech Pathology program at ODU.  We coincidentally sat right next to each other in statistics last spring, and she's the only person I know in the program right now! She gave me so much information, and I'm partly at ease, but partly more nervous! She was saying that a lot of students don't make it through undergrad without switching majors or just not passing and about 1/3 of those who do make it get accepted into the grad program.  UGH, I'm so nervous! I know I can do it, but there are always those little doubts, you know?

  1. I love the brown and blue combo. like a robins egg in its nest. speech pathology does tend to be tough, it has to be something that you love doing.

  2. good luck on your school-work and professional choices - i'm just now at the tail end of my college career and i'm STILL stressed out. it's fascinating that you're studying something so unique!

    your necklace is my favorite part of this outfit - it really pulls everything together in a really romantic fashion.

    xo.

  8. Your hair always gives me hair envy! It is gorgeous!

    I remember being so psyched out by other students, or grad students coming to talk to us and telling us that grad school is so tough, you can't work with classes, etc. Honestly it wasn't bad at all, and it kind of frustrated me that everyone always tried to psych me out! You can definitely do it! If you ever have any questions or need encouragement, you know where to come! :)

    Thank you so much for the music suggestions. I am going to take some time this week and preview everything I am not familiar with!

  10. That dress is sooo beautiful. It always makes me jealous when someone has a beautiful thrifted find, because it means I can't find one for myself :-(
