Optimisic

First of all, I cannot believe that I have somehow reached fifty followers. Crazy! My blog is still a baby and I haven't quite caught my stride yet in terms of knowing how it fits into my life. I appreciate each and every one of you; it's very very encouraging.

I am so excited and eager for life right now. I've just recently changed my major and the further into the term I get, the more right I feel about it. Plus, I see Robert again in two weeks + we're going to Seattle for a weekend for a film festival one of his projects got into. I just ordered my first Modcloth dress for said event (Out to Sea Foam Dress). I am excited to dress it down for a day traipsing around the city--and up, for the awards ceremony.

The back completely sold me. Now, just to wait for the 3-6 business days to pass so I can fondle it all over, instead of drooling at my screen. Anyhow, what I am wearing today:

I wore a really simple outfit. But this is one of my favorite dresses, so I feel amazing. I haven't worn it in a while, since it sort of got squished into a part of my closet I don't look at often. The print is probably one of the boldest ones I own, which is sort of sad, since it's not that bold at all. But it has three of my favorite colors in it: orangey rust, teal and a bluish purple.

Oh! And due to technical difficulties, my Architecture History class was cancelled (along with the quiz that was supposed to happen). So I'm smiling for real in these pictures. Because I didn't think I was going to have the time to even take them today.

  10. The baby blue dress is adorable! I can see how you fell in love with it! Im always drooling over dresses from modcloth but am scared gto order them because of the sizing, Im sacred it won't fit! S lucky that you quiz was canceled! I'd be smiling ear to ear too! But don't you hate it when you go to class, and it's miserable out only to find the class canceled?!
