Surviving Finals

Sadly that time is rolling around again. The time of late night cramming, sleepless nights, and the looming thought that you're destined for failure. So I've decided to create a surving AP test, and Final guide.

1. The first thing needed is food. Whether it's chocolate, fruit, chips, whatever, I can promise you you won't get through this week without it.

2. Music. If you're like me, dead silence only distracts, so a killer playlist is definitely a must. I've been listening to Iggy Azalea's new album non-stop as well as a bit of 5SOS

3. Friends. It's always nice to jump into a small study group. Just make sure it's with people who won't distract you.

Here's an example of what not to do

4. Tea/coffee/any sort of caffeine. You're going to be cramming. It's always a given with these sort of tests no matter how early you say you'll start looking over the material. Any sort of caffeine becomes your savior.

5. Sleep. You need rest. You'll end up zoning out during the test, and if your like me, even falling asleep on your booklets.

Best of luck this week! Try not to let the stress get to your pretty little heads. The most important thing to remember is to keep your sanity, and not to sacrifice your health or well being for that one good grade!

Beach Vibes

I absolutely loved being away in this little slice of heaven for the past few days. It was a much needed relaxing vacation. The sun was hot, the water was freezing, and the company was amazing.

 The second day we decided to take a little break from the sun and do some shopping. We visited some outlets and then went to the Market Commons to visit some little boutiques and see a movie. I had been postponing seeing Divergent because I had wanted to read the book first but I finally gave in after starting it and I am absolutely in love. Four, Tobias, Theo, whatever name you want to give him, is such a beautiful man and I was going absolutely insane the entire time his face was on the screen. It's definitely a must see, and ever since I haven't been able to put the book down.

 The Market Commons were absolutely gorgeous and I could spend hours walking around them, unfortunately we weren't able to stay there too long, which may actually be a good thing because I put a pretty little dent in my wallet.

This is the little square in the middle of the Commons, and I'm wearing a pair of brown faux leather shorts from Urban Outfitters and a black crop top from h&m. 

Overall the trip was just one giant tease for summer and I can't wait until June rolls around. It was lovely being able to get away with my best friend and soak up the sun even for just a few days.

Easter Florals

Happy Easter everyone! Although you will be viewing this post tomorrow when it is no longer Easter, I'm still sending you all warm wishes. I spent Easter with my family, which is the only way it should be spent. We went to a church service in the morning, and then went to see my grandparents for a lovely gathering consisting Aunts, Uncles, and cousins galore. I'm wearing a lovely little dress from a boutique called Fab'rik . At first I wasn't  too sure about it. It was between this and a pair of flowy snake skinned patterned high waisted pants. And as a spur of the moment sort of event I decided to purchase the dress. Even after buying it I still wasn't sold. But once I arrived home I tried it on and feel in love. The sleeves are bell ones and I don't have any other shirts or dresses like this and I loved the flowyness that they provided. The back of the dress was a scoop and then it tied around my neck in a sort of halter style. It is surprisingly comfortable and I got loads of comments on it, so I would definitely recommend checking out Fab'rik's site or walk on in if you see the boutique in an area near you!
