Happy Memorial day/Monday!

So I hope everyone had a lovely Memorial day weekend! I had a wonderful time hanging out with family and friends and here is an overview of what I did! Friday was my 'chill' day for the most part and I hung out with my family. Saturday I went to take pictures with one of my good friends, Emily, and her bff Nettie at her house down in good ol' Pauline SC. I'm planning on opening a vintage store soon on etsy so definitely look out for that. In my last entry I mentioned that I seriously needed to take a thrifting trip... and it still stands! I really need to go! My mom mentioned something about one the other day in Greenville that she hadn't been to before so hopefully, maybe, POSSIBLY soon I'll be able to go! 

Yesterday boyfriend and I decided to be active and we went walking/running around his neighborhood. Boy are we pathetic. I don't know how long we lasted, but it wasn't very long. When we came back I collapsed in front of his fan in his room and I think we literally stayed there for a good hour. (Baby we really need to get into shape :P) it was still a super fun day. We made some pizzas and then watched the swedish version of The girl with the dragon tattoo. It was really creepy but I kind of liked it. Personally, I'm super excited for David Finch's take on it. That trailer... oh my gosh. I can't even describe to you how amazing I find it to look. Plus the fact that it looks so sketchy... I mean, to have that great of sound and it looks like it was taken with a video recorder?? Wow. I mean. Wow. December, please come faster!! (Maybe)

Today I hung out with my family in the mountains. We decided to take a trip up to Hendersonville, NC, but my parents wanted to stop in Landrum, SC for lunch. We went to this little restaurant called 'The Hare and Hound' and even though the food was tastey, it was super hot. They only had about five fans going... but don't let that discourage you. I've been there tons of times before and that was the first time that it felt like that. We went to this little antique store while we were there and looked around but it was quite pricy. After that we headed onto Hendersonville where I found that little guy in my last picture. Talk about love at first sight! I decided to name him Bart and he's such a cute companion (yes I am aware that I'm really childish... but come on! HE HAS NO MOUTH!) :D I also found a really good/old copy of Alice in Wonderland that I forgot to take a picture of. Have I ever really expressed how much I love old books? :P 

Before we left we took a trip to this little candy/icecream shop called 'Kilwin's' and I couldn't resist buying two white chocolate covered oreos. :3 Gosh do you remember when they actually sold chocolate covered oreos at the store? Those were possibly my favorite cookies in the world and now they never sell them anymore. But oh well. Once again I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and for you sims3 fans out there... generations is coming out tomorrow! I know what I'll be doinnngggggg ;D

me+boyfriend+graduation+stress

So a lot has been going on in the past few days, and I put the photographs in order of the events. On Saturday I went with my parents to this antique store in Greer to retrieve that lovely cake platter that I will adorn my precious cake on for graduation. It was only $15 too! I also found that pride and prejudice book that I have been longing to hold in my possession  for quite some time. It was $9 but totally worth it! I plan to read it soon :) 

That night was my best friend's graduation party and I stayed there for a bit until I went to the David Walker concert with boyfriend's family. His sister is probably one of the most precious people I've ever met :) definitely the sweetest and quirkiest! I totally recommend buying David's album by the way. He is super talented and his faith is seriously inspiring. It was a wonderful night of worship :) click this to check his music out :)

Tonight boyfriend took me on my first movie + dinner date. We saw Bridesmaids. It was funny but it also disheartened me a bit. I won't get into that, but it was still a great movie. :) I love spending time with him. He is the funniest and sweetest person I know. literally. I don't even think he means to be as funny as I think him to be but it's wonderful. I honestly can't wait to spend this summer with him. :) he definitely knows how to keep me sane when I'm stressed and paranoid. I just wish the next few days could be over with. I mean... yeah I'm sad to graduate, but I'd much rather move past it already. 

And honestly... I'm just looking forward to my dress, hair, and cake because this cake will be the first special thing I've ever really had. I know. Sad. But I don't care. It's going to be adorable and that makes me happy. Speaking of something that also makes me happy...

I've been addicted to etsy lately (yeah, I know ha) but really! You MUST check this woman's artwork out. It's so precious and wonderful and you just need to see it.
