hello lovelies

So after becoming addicted to blogs and searching for something else to take time away from my school work, i've decided to start blogging. I'm going to go ahead and say up front that i have a tendency to start something like this only to stop after a few months, but i'm going to try and break that trend this time. I'm at this new place in my life; an exciting, positive, and just all around happy place as cliche as that might sound. I'm hoping to bring a little bit of the excitement and happiness to this blog by shedding a little bit of loveliness into your day. For my first post I just want to let you all know something things i've been loving lately! 
In music, i recently fell in love with a band called The Avett Brothers. They performed at the Grammys and it was love at first chord {oh yeah, i like corny/lame phrases like that. you'll get used to it}.

 My obsession with Mumford & Sons has been going on a while longer. Their breakout hit was "Little Lion Man" and they had a very unique sound so with further exploration, the obsession began. Check both of these bands out if you like sweet melodies and mellow/piano music with a hint of a big band sound.

I also recently finished the book Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen. I picked this up because I saw a preview for the film adaptation that's coming out in March and decided it was a must read. Although, now the movie will not be as good since I read the book but i'll still get to look at Robert Pattinson for approximately 2 hours and i've always been a big fan of Reese Witherspoon so win/win maybe?

 

Next on my reading this, besides my Consumer Behavior textbook, is The Girl Who Played With Fire by Stieg Larson. I bought this book after I finished The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo but then school started back and blah blah blah. 

Well here it is. Hopefully this is just the start of something that i can continue for the final 15 months of my college years (ahhhhhh!!) as well as in my transition into the real world. Thanks for reading. xoxo
