Wowzers what a day

   So Saturday started off a little shaky with waking up late for work...thankfully my friend Ty was working with me and he sent me a "get your ass up" text. This was quickly followed by our tiredness and missing our stop to get off downtown so we ended up walking an extra 3 blocks to the school and almost missed free breakfast. Thankfully we had 10 minutes to spare before we had to do anything relatively important. Then we started our city bus tours of downtown Minneapolis which would have been flawless had the Heart Walk not been going on directly on our route to and from housing...
   The afternoon turned around though, weather was gorgeous hanging out with everyone was great. Then my roommate Crystal and I and our neighbor Tim decided to go for a walk. So we pulled our bikes and rollerblades and headed on over to Dinkeytown. It was all great until I got home...and dropped my iPhone on the concrete and it shattered...AWFUL!!!! I have never been so angry with myself before... Thankfully Ty was home and he saved the day. We went to MOA and visited the Apple store where the fixed it for free! Amazing! But then when I got home...the sewing machine didn't work anymore so I couldn't work on my Urban Outfitters inspired comforter...over all it was a rather roller coaster of a day...

Big Event coming up?

Hey guys!

I'm all about saving money when it comes to looking great. I found this great rental site where you can look like a star for an affordable price! They have dresses for certain events, different body types, colors, styles, etc. I'm using this site to hopefully rent a great dress for a wedding I have to attend later this year as well as a few other great events. The site is called Rent the Runway. Check it out! I already have a handful of dresses saved under my favorites. Get ready for the infamous compliment ladies..."Oh my gosh, I love your dress, where did you get it?!" Can't you just feel the fuzzy feelings growing inside... Happy Shopping!

I have started!

I have started my efforts in making my new comforter. Here is stage one: cutting two sheets into 6 inch strips. They will eventually be the ruffles. I hope to actually start making them ruffles tonight after class! My only concern...that I cut up the wrong sheets. Apparently sheets from Ikea do not get their sizes printed on the tags and after pulling them out of the wash machine I realized I was unsure of which was which. My roommate Robin and I measured and hopefully we measured accurately but I will not know until I sew the shell of the duvet together. Let's keep our fingers crossed that I can pull this off!

I ran out of pins to keep the sheet together as I folded!!
