My last
few posts have been short and sweet because I try not to put too much on here.
I need some air of mystery; writing everything on here would just make it too
easy. I still want people to have a
reason to talk to me. But it’s
impossible to talk to everyone, especially when all my best friends are currently
in Europe. They’re coming home soon
though and I could not be more excited! I cannot wait to attack them with hugs
and catch up over some good old American food.
This has been a long week and I can barely believe it’s already May
ninth. Where is the time going I ask you?! But I got yellow trained at work,
which now means I get to handle more animals. Three banded armadillos are one
of my new favorite animals. They are so fantastic. Sugar gliders-not so much. My love of the Kentucky Derby was ruined at
work the other day when I was enlightened to the horrible way the horses are
treated. I still love the event; I just
wish people cared more about animal welfare. It’s awful the way people view ethics when large sums of money become involved. And Poe the raven flirts with my constantly, he's my new boyfriend. Besides that, do you remember in this post the mermaid-esque nails I did? I have
yet to upload my nail make-up post, but you will see when I do that I only ever
put pinks, reds, oranges, and purples on my nails. Any shade in those color
ranges I go for; it’s just what I like. However, that blue color on my nails
which was Essie’s Trophy Wife kept catching my eye every time I saw it in the
stores and for weeks I was just like “Emma, buy the nail polish already”. And
like come on with a name like that how can you not? Trophy Wife? That’s so
perfect. But then I borrowed my
roommate’s nail polishes and she had it! So I snatched that right on up along
with her Essie luxe effects. Now that I
know that I really do like it I will probably have to actually buy it for
myself. Also, I have been trying to
figure out how to do this one special hairstyle for months and I finally figured out how to do it and
what it’s being called. So I blew out my hair and that is my project for
tomorrow. Once I perfect it I’ll post a picture :) I finally got most of my stuff all organized in my apartment. Although I have been trying to hang up my Arsenal
scarf for weeks and haven’t figured out a way to make it look good yet. My
postcard collection isn’t going up yet either. I think that’ll just have to
wait until next fall when I have my new apartment. Speaking of things that have to do with my
time abroad, my favorite British person Tom, my RLS from London, is officially visiting
this summer for two weeks! I am so excited to show him a good time in this
lovely city and practice my Britishness for him. It's also frappuccino happy hour at Starbucks this week which I plan on participating in tomorrow. That’s about all that’s going on with me
right now. Here are some things that are currently inspiring me. Remember, at
the moment I’m planning a bridal shower, working at a zoo, in a chem lab,
baking a lot, and being myself. So as usual, the things that inspire me are far
and wide.
