Oh sweet blog, how I've missed you.

Hey everyone! So now that Christmas break is over and I'm fully aware of what is going on with my work and class schedule, I decided it's time to come back from my "blogging vacation." And what better day than the one and only Friday the 13th? My day was very normal, nothing too unlucky. I'm not too much into superstitions though. How about you guys? Did anyone else have any bad luck today!?

I also thought do a little 5QF! :) Later I'll do a post to fill you all in on my Christmas/New Years (it's pretty interesting, I promise!)
Now, on to the questions.

1. What is the last thing you bought for yourself?
The last thing I bought for myself was a ton of scrapbooking supplies and new drawing pencils. Steven's family got me a gift card to Hobby Lobby for Christmas. I am a Hobby Lobby freak. I can't help it, I just love it.

2. What is your favorite meal on a cold winter day?
My Favorite meal during the winter has to be my Mom's chili. We eat chili and bread bowls for Christmas Eve every year, and I love it. I could probably even eat it in the summer.

3. Have you started looking for swimsuits for this year, and do you buy a new one each year?
I haven't started looking yet, but I'm not sure if I even should. I have about a thousand swimsuits. I do get one, or two, new ones every year. I used to get two different swim suits every year because I thought I HAD to have a new cute swimsuit and guard suit, even though I hardly ever got to wear the cute one.

4. If you could be any candy what would you be and why?
If I could be any candy it would probably be a coconut cluster. :) Because they are a little bit different than many other kinds of candy and they don't have to be perfect for you to love them! (way cheesy!)

5. What are you most passionate about?
That's a pretty tough question, I'm still trying to figure it out. I know that I love music, art, and people. I'm trying to figure out something that I can do that involves all three of these things. I think finding your passion is hard, and your passions may change as  you do. I think I need to learn everything about myself before I can decide what I am most passionate about. So when I figure it out, I'll be sure to let you all know!

Alright! That's all for me today! It's GREAT to be back blogworld! :) I have missed you all so much!

What I'm Loving Wednesday

Hey-o!
I've missed the last couple of WILW's and I was determined to do it this time! I've got class soon so this one is going to be pretty short! Here we go!

I'm loving- that my sweet love Steven and I had our 1 year "anniversary" on Monday (the quotations are because I don't think you have actual anniversaries until your married.) Anyway we've been together for a whole year and I couldn't be happier. He's such a sweetheart and does so much for me. I'm truly a very lucky girl. We decided since we're in college and all that we wouldn't do much. No gifts and we went out to dinner. It was really fun. There is a possibility that I made him a gift anyway. Nothing big, it was a cute idea though.  I made him a book of cards with 52 reasons why I loved him! (one for each week we've been together!) and since the traditional gift for a 1 year is paper gifts I thought it fit perfect! :)

I'm loving- that I've got less than a week left until Christmas break! I can't wait to see all my family and have a whole month off of school!

I'm loving-that when we do start next semester, I'm taking a few art classes! I've wanted to take some for awhile now and have had a full schedule. I'm almost done with school and I absolutely can not wait! 

I'm loving- my roommates and I took a few Christmas pictures so we could make cards to send home to our families. It was so funny taking the pictures, none of us could stop laughing. :)

I'm loving- all of you! It means so much to me when you take time to comment and follow! :) Thanks so much for reading! 

Link up and tell us what you are loving! :) 

Five Question Friday

Five question Friday is here! :)) Link up here and enjoy! 

1. What is your favorite Christmas decoration in your house?

It's a tie! :) I have my Up! ornament and another little snowman on our Christmas tree this year. I love them both! The movie Up! is soo good! and My little snowman just looks like he's having so much fun hangin' out on his snowflake. 

2. Do you finish your Christmas shopping early or are you a last minute type?

Procrastination is my weakness in everything. School, work, and even shopping. I have so much left to buy it's gonna be difficult to fit all of it in! I brought home Christmas wrap yesterday and our neighbor thought that it was too early. So I guess I won't be the last shopper out there! :)

3. When do you turn on your heat?

Our heat goes on whenever we feel cold! I hate hate hate being cold. I hate it so much, that I have even been known to wear layers in the middle of the summer. So we really don't go by a certain day/ degree. Just whenever we're feelin' it. 

4. Do you ever wish your blog was private?

Sometimes, yes. Sometimes it would be nice to just be able to write and not worry about who is going to see it. But I think that they have other websites out there for that or journals at least. So I'll stick with my public ramblings :)

5. Do you put your deodorant on before of after you put on your shirt?

Always after! Deodorant lines can mess up your entire outfit and if your like me and sleep until the very last minute, you don't have much time for outfit malfunctions!
