“She won’t be defeated by her past. She’s too strong to give up, and too smart to give in.
She’ll keep climbing, until she reaches the stars.”

Happy Friday!! There is nothing like a short work week, am I right? Although this week was short I am still happy it is the weekend as I have some fun things in store.

Happy Friday!! Even though it is raining outside right now these past fews have been the perfect weather, putting me in the best mood. Then to top it all off Taylor Swift released her new song and video ME! today and that just makes me so very happy!! From what I can tell from her Instagram and current image change, this new album is going to be about how in love and happy she is, dreamy eyed and hearts in the sky. I am excited for the new album but I am going to miss angry Taylor…… I love angry Taylor. You may have seen my Instagram Stories where I set an alarm for midnight last night so I can get up and listen/watch the video. Do I need a life? I was excited for it! Anyway, Taylor always creates albums that really parallel with what is going on in my life. Her 1989 album about Harry– being in a relationship that keeps going back and forth where she ends up completely heartbroken, but ultimately finds herself in the end. GIRL did you read my diary?! Then she came out with Reputation where she basically said a screw you to everyone who has hurt her, didn’t support her, talked about her behind her back, to the people who were toxic for her and just said goodbye, moving on, I am strong. AND that is exactly how I felt at that time. I am curious to see if this new album coincides with what is going on with my life. Only time can tell.
Since Sunday I have been in a somewhat sour mood. Seems like everything is going haywire, nothing is working correctly. My computer has been acting weird, my body hurts, I am forgetting to do things on my to-do list which is frustrating me, it feels like everyone is grabbing at me from all ends, and I was offered an incredible opportunity in a few weeks that I can’t do because of scheduling and I am really bummed out about it. All of it is not the end of the world or nothing that can’t be fixed just throwing myself a pity-party and milking my bad mood. Thank goodness the Shopbop Event of the Season Sale started today to brighten my mood and for some retail therapy.

Last month marked my 5 year anniversary of blogging– my blogiversary! I can’t believe it has been 5 years!! Time really goes by fast. It feels like yesterday I was creating a vision board and coding my website (that looked like I coded it myself ha). At the same time, however, so much has happened since then; A TON of growth and improvement in content, lots of brand partnerships, experiences I only dreamed about, friendships that I created, and my own personal growth. Although my blog and myself have improved over the years there is still so much more I want to do, want to learn, want to experience, and want to perfect and improve.
