I love school, and I love being a student. The one thing I don't like: not having much spending cash. Bummer! But, that doesn't mean I can't window shop. And, boy...do I window shop! If I could have my wishes granted I'd get the following things. I also think I may have this obsession with foxes. Sly and cunning little animals.

....I'm catching up with life post summer job, and about to become super busy with school, work, mentoring, and just plain ol' life. Thought I'd start by documenting some of my favorite things at the moment.

1) Herschel Laptop Sleeve - I ab-so-lu-te-ly love it!!! It was a birthday gift from él. (Sidenote: él is the guy I'm currently dating.) I love the leather on the bottom, the color navy blue, and the fuzzy, soft fleece interior. I'd been searching for one for ages, and I found one on Zappos as I was browsing. Definitely one of the best birthday gifts I've received in ages.

2) Books - Yes, I managed to find a Norton American Literature Anthology vol. 1 for $2!!! Score for me! Also, picked up this other book Making Literature Matter. Both books cost a whooping....wait for it....wait for it....$4.35 with tax!!! Yes, I do get this excited over purchasing books at a discount!

3) Trader Joe's Fleur de Sel Caramels - I love caramel anything, but salted caramel is my kryptonite! These are tooo die for. I bought a box at TJ's a few weeks ago, and I've been slowly eating one at a time. So hard not to just give in and eat all of them in one sitting. Definitely a great pick me up treat!

De regreso

Yes, she's back from the dead. And no, she's not going back any time soon. Sorry I've been so quiet online these past few months. Life got in the way. My own anxieties and insecurities also got the best of me. But, I've decided that I'm ready to start writing again, and blogging, too. Life is about to get super hectic again now that school, work, volunteering, and running is picking up again. Longer posts to resume in the next day or so.

So what have you been up to? Miss me?
