JADE-ed AGAIN.

Hello my lovelies,how's your day going.I can't figure out why i don't miss home as much as i used to.Maybe its because graduation is really close and its not a ''go home and come back to school'' kinda holiday.Its a ''go home,get a job,pay your bills and welcome to real life ''kinda holiday.
I'm excited on one hand because i get to try loads of new things and i don't know what's coming and i'm not so ''yipee'' on the other hand because this whole phase of my life is over.
I've been a student for as long as i can remember even during the holidays when i was younger,my mum had me in some sort of school learning something.its gonna be a bit weird not having to answer to anybody at the end of the year but still wonderful because I DON'T HAVE TO ANSWER TO ANYBODY!
Tried on my jade green jeans today.Green is one of my least favorite colors but this green i like.I've had it for almost a year and this is the second time i'm wearing it.I should bust out this baby more often.:) Pasar bien...
Update: School officially ended for me today.So i'm no longer a student.Yippidy yay!. My classmate tried to remember our first class here.Its true what they say...Time flies.

 Somebody please explain why i love black n white pictures so much.

Start now to do more of the things you love.There's usually less time than we think.
Have a wonderful week.

GOING BACK...

Hello gorgeous,i hope you are having a wonderful weekend.I'm sitting here with a tall,pretty, pink cup full of water and wondering what's going on with me.My entire system seems determined to teach me a lesson.From my hair to my skin...there's some kinda revolt against moi going on.Help!
Had a pretty regular week and if i've not said it before,''i love my teacher''.This has to be the most stress free course i've had in six years.
How was your week.I hope you achieved all you set out to and so much more.
I decided to try posting older stuff  to see if i like it.Normally,i write on the day something happens so that i remember everything clearly.Let's see how catching up feels.

i love these kinky twists! it was made to keep me happy:)

this laptop bag turned school bag has served faithfully for 3 years.To thrift stores...i'm glad i found you.

 almost everyday is sneaker day.

 Sparkle and shine :*
  
Enjoy this last day of the weekend loveys and do whatever you need to make you happy.Stay blessed and too fabulous for reason.

                                They are really thin and smell a bit like oatmeal..

The weather has been so much better here and we can finally say its Spring:).A couple of weeks late but no one's complaining.So this is me checking in and praying that i can keep my posts a bit more frequent.For my next post i'm pretty sure we are going to cook!!:)

I've made a few new(to me) and easy meals to fight the lazy days and i'd love to share with you.So fingers crossed,a smile and trust i'll do that soon.
