Need A Giggle?

Last night two of my girl friends and I decided to go see a hypnotist on campus. Random, I know! Every year the same guy comes to all of the freshman orientation sessions and puts on an amazing show. I missed it at my orientation because lucky me, I had strep throat and it was 100 degrees outside. There was no way I was attending the optional session. Now years later everyone still talks about the show and I still hadn't seen it. Well all summer my best Ash and I decided that one night we would find out when orientation was in town and go check it out. That we did last night and it was amazing. I have not laughed that hard in a while. I was extremely skeptical at first because I mean who can really hypnotize a person and make them do anything? Well apparently hypnotist Michael C. Anthony can! Seriously, if you ever get a chance to see him I highly recommend it. His show was absolutely phenomenal. (getting to pretend we were soon to be freshman was just an added bonus(: haha, if only!)


How many Bachelorette fans do we have left out there? I know this season has been every more cheesy than most- but I'm still tuned in every week for the drama. My heart was a tad broken last night when Emily said bye to my favorite- Sean. How she can not give that cutie a rose is beyond me. Sean if you are out there and still lonely, I would definitely give you all the roses you want(:

One of my favorite parts of watching the Bachelor/Bacherlorette is twitter during the show. Everyone seems to have a reaction about what is going on. I came across a website that highlights some of the funniest tweets during the show. I don't agree with them all but they are too funny to not share!

"Emily cries like a kitten with asthma. #kindofadorable #Bachelorette"

"#bachelorette Hasn’t Emily noticed that Jef is the size of a Snickers bar yet?"

"Jeff, let's get real about that Jimmy Neutron hair.."

" I wouldn't be good at hometown week. I'd be drunk and catching up with my mom, not worrying about the dude.."

"I'm crying because Kensington's cottage looks bigger than my apartment. Not to mention better decorated #bachelorette"
^My favorite- that cottage was AMAZING. Lucky girl!

haha, I'll stop now. Not always nice but if you are an avid show watcher you know it's too funny.


Have a great afternoon ladies!

Big News

Happy Monday friends! I hope you all had a nice and relaxing fourth of July. Mine was just wonderful! I spent the 100 degree holiday at Lake Gaston with my parents. I don't know about you but I just cannot get used to the 90-100 degree heat we have been having! Luckily we had the water to cool off in.

Yes, I did sport an American Flag bow

Okay so, moving on.. I have


I got a job!! yay! FINALLY!! I can't deny that I was starting to get a little worried. Come August I will officially be starting my journey as a first grade teacher! I am beyond excited! Now all of my time is spent pinning classroom ideas and dreaming about my classroom. I can't wait to start decorating it!! I know there are a million things I need to do to get ready but I don't know where to start!

and just for kicks.. A friend of mine just introduced me to these new reads. I'm thinking they may be fun pool reads for July(:

WILW

Before I go any further- How many Pretty Little Liars fans do we have out there? This show is the most addicting thing I have ever seen. What a crazy life these girls live!



I haven't done the What I'm Loving Wednesday link up with Jamie in a while. I'm thinking I'm long overdue. This is what I am loving on this gorgeous Wednesday morning.



I've been branching out in the cooking world lately and I love it. When I cook I seem to eat  healthier because I'm not just picking up processed food. I owe all my cooking on the summertime because every night just seems perfect to light the grill up. This lady isn't complaining! In the past week with friends we have made chicken and shrimp kabobs, tilapia, tons of fresh veggies, steaks, dips, and pasta salad. Nothing extravagant but I promise it's been good!

cruising the Beaufort waterfront- amazing

Atlantic Beach. I've been extremely blessed this summer having been able to take several trips that way. I just got back Monday morning from celebrating my best friends new beau's 25th birthday at AB! AB is an easy drive for us at only about an hour and a half away and is absolutely gorgeous! This past weekend we were hanging out at Shackleford when a group of horses walked right up to us in the water. Pure amazingness. I am 100% convinced NC has it all from the mountains to the coast.

I'm loving all of the hillarious ecards that have been pinned lately.






and my guilty pleasure that should NOT be admitted. I've been loving Laguna Beach being played every morning this week. It reminds me of my high school days when this show was actually cool. Now I clearly see how ridiculous it is but can't help but reminisce.

What are you loving today? Have a great day!
