Seven of Spades by Geri X

Not the greatest sound quality on this video unfortunately. I love this song so much, even though it makes me sad.

This song is available on her album (EP?) "The Naked Truth" [The Bedroom Sessions Volume Two].

"I don't need you to sing to me
all your songs are memories replayed"

Linking up today! (:

The Past Few Days

This past weekend was another interesting one at the motel. We're starting to slow down, since it's November, but there is still never a dull moment. I've been going through some archiving stuff, which is pretty cool. I've been finding a lot of cool stuff.

After Mass on Sunday, my mom and I went to get lunch at a popular local restaurant. Their lasagna is amazing!!

This morning I had an eye doctor appointment. It was my first time to see this eye doctor, and overall, I had a positive experience. I didn't have to have my eyes dilated! And I also don't have a different prescription (which means no need to buy new glasses!!!)! He did say, though, when he was looking at my eyes after the yellow eyedrops, that I have a slight irritation from something - some sort of allergy I guess?

I just updated the "Music" page on my blog. While searching iPhoto for pictures, I found some extremely awkward pictures of myself...that should be a post some day. Wow. When I was in high school, I used to just hang out in my room and take pictures of myself apparently. Not only that, I would also make stupid faces when my mom would take my picture.

Here's one that I found (that I like) from junior year. This was taken while I was doing my Alg II homework...haha.

Juicy Couture tee - TJ Maxx - "You Oughta Be In Juicy" - I used to get so many confused comments about it.
gold shimmery 3/4 sleeve crop cardigan - Macy's? - must find

Yay!

Taking part in my first blogger exchange & I am super excited!!! (:

What's in My Bag? {Part Two}

Yesterday, I talked about what I carry with me in my purse - today's post is about what is in my backpack for school!

In case you didn't notice then, I love Vera Bradley, and I own too many pieces in too many patterns...haha. I should post a picture of my collection someday.

This is Vera Bradley's Laptop Backpack in Purple Punch. There is one main compartment, along with a smaller front compartment, and a back compartment. The front compartment has a medium-sized rectangular slip pocket, four pencil slip pockets, a horizontal zippered pocket, an ID holder, and a small slip pocket. The back compartment holds a laptop, with some extra space for a notebook or two.

In the front compartment, I have William Golding's Lord of the Flies (I believe it is the 1959 edition), which perfectly fits in the medium-sized slip pocket, a black pen, and cherry Chapstick (which is in the zippered pocket).

The main compartment holds three folders (Target), a notebook (Target - these are currently 70% off), whichever book or books I need for my class (this is Managing Housekeeping Operations for Hospitality Facilities Management), charge cords for my iPhone & MacBook, a random Bed & Breakfasts of Wisconsin brochure, a Vera Bradley 16 month student planner in Paisley Meets Plaid, and a Vera Bradley pencil pouch in Paisley Meets Plaid.

The back compartment holds my MacBook.

My pencil case contains an eraser, a flash drive, three blue pens, two mechanical pencils, and occasionally random notes.

What's in My Bag? {Part One}

Admit it, we all love to see what other people carry in their bags.

This is my purse. It's a Coach Madison bag of some sort that I bought at the factory store back in April. In this picture, it's sitting where it does a lot of the time: the passenger seat of my Beetle! (:

So this bag has two large compartments (the front and back) with an additional zippered pocket separating the two. There is also a small zippered pocket in the back section of the purse, while the front compartment has two slip pockets.

All of it.

The front section holds my (matching) wallet and camera. In the summer, my sunglasses case is usually in there too. One of the slip pockets holds Chapstick (green apple), my library card, my name tag for the Y, and a Vera Bradley Clip Zip ID in Java Blue, which contains loyalty cards and coupons, along with an old ID (my temps, haha). The other slip pocket holds my earbuds and my iPod when it is not in use.

The separating pocket contains my checkbook (in a Vera Bradley Very Berry Paisley cover), a small notebook, a pen, and sometimes some paperwork.

The back section holds an umbrella (Totes, with purses on it - which my grandma gave me for my birthday), a car charger for my phone (belongs in the glove compartment of my car...), and my keys (on a Vera Bradley lanyard in Rhythm and Blues) unless they are in use. The zippered pocket in the back holds an extra key to my car, a compact mirror, extra camera batteries, lip gloss, work keys, 5 gum (RPM), and Drenched in PINK Fresh & Clean supersoft body lotion.

So, what's in your bag?
