Work it, Run it, Watch it

I have my first test of the semester this Thursday, an annotated bibliography due next Tuesday, and I have to have my thesis advisor picked out and ready to sign an agreement by the following Thursday...
Have I done any preparation for these tasks?
None whatsoever.

But that's ok, right?
I'll admit it, I have been procrastinating non stop and this weekend would have been a wonderful time to get stuff done since I no longer have my apartment in the Classic City :( and downtown wasn't calling my name.
Actually that's a lie. My sister and I went downtown Friday, but just to dinner NOT to go out. : P

Anyway, since I got very little done this weekend (oh P.S. I'm including Mondays into the weekend now because I'm THAT procrastinatory), I have to get things done today!
But of course after I went to class, I had to do something before just diving into more school work.
So I actually did something productive (even though it still isn't school stuff)!
I worked out. I planned to crank up my iTunes and run out my feelings (Ha!), but I saw Friends with Benefits was on and I love that movie. Instead of being a fatty and sitting down and watching it, I did a "no gym required" workout from Pinterest, while I watched the movie.
(Weird? Maybe, but Mila Kunis is still Black Swan skinny in it and that is some major inspiration)
 I kind of thought it would be easy and not that intense, but let me tell you: I felt the burn and I still feel it. But that could be the fact that I haven't worked out more than walking to class and the refrigerator in weeks!

I also noticed how old and dirty my running shoes are starting to look, which is weird because of their lack of use. (Ba dumbum tsss)

So I was browsing around on Zappos.com and found some that I thought were cute (because lets be honest, these are going to see campus during class time way more than the treadmill): 

These Newton Running shoes are the prettiest sherberty sporty shoes I've ever laid my eyes on.

These Nike's are similar to the ones I have now, which I liked a lot at first.
And at $65 they're about half the price of the Newton's above.

I think these are adorable, you can never go wrong with pink and black or red and black (they come in either). They also got a pretty high customer rating!

I think these Brooks' might be the winner, I really liked some old Brooks shoes I had and they also go a 5/5 review.

I might go waste time at brick and mortar store and investigate a little more. Haha.

What's your favorite running shoe? Or what's your favorite way to work out? I'd love suggestions!


P.S. Here's some inspiration if you need it!

Trays Trance

I have been so so busy... School just started back and I already feel behind!
Oh well maybe I'll catch up eventually! Ha

Anyway I haven't had that much time to think about different things to post on here since I've been working on my senior thesis. BUT the other day I was looking around my apartment (while I was shopping online of course) and noticed that I may have a burgeoning obsession... Trays!
I know, it's kind of weird but they really can change up a coffee table, a bar cart, a dresser, or a bed. Here are a few I love
I'm posting this from my phone so the order might be messed up but the first 3 are just trays from my own house and the last one is just some Pinterest inspiration

The silver one is the newest one I've gotten. It was a gift from my mom! It is usually on my bed, but it wasn't made so I styled a blanket around it. Crafty

The gold and white one is my little bar tray (it matches my ice container and the tongs) the shelf its on kind of looks empty in the picture but its because I'm in the process of moving out my stuff. I think out it from TJ Maxx.

The third one is also in my room, I usually keep it on my dresser or an accent chair. I absolutely love it. It was a great find from Hobby Lobby.

Lastly, here's a few different ideas if you're looking for a new look.

PS I've really been considering the idea of lucite trays or a lucite coffee table but who knows next week I could hate them.

I'd love to hear what you think.

Get Back to Work

The holidays are over, school's about to start back (my LAST semester!!), and I'm slightly behind on about everything I have to do. So of course, I'm doing unproductive things like looking at Refinery29 and what do I find????


Their new lookbook is CLUELESS themed!!!
Are you totally buggin'?

Anyway, I am still working on the bedroom project (the color theme keeps changing), I am trying to perfect my class schedule, and find time to switch my whole wardrobe to Clueless inspired ensembles (just kidding, I think).

Have a Great Day!

xoxo
