duh!

Yesterday, I had an 'aha' moment...

You know what I'm talking about, right??

That moment when the lightbulb finally flashes on and you go, 'A-HA!' The point when something finally clicks.

I have been feeling all out of sorts and just not myself. I wish I could say that it's this funk I've been in for a few days, but it's been more like months! I have been disappointed in myself because I have allowed another person to dictate my happiness and self-worth. I was always one of those people who coud've cared less about what someone else thought, until it was the person I loved and desperately wanted approval from. Once I realized this person did not care the way I wanted them to, I was CRUSHED!

My whole world seemed to change and collapse in on itself. I forgot about that confidence and felt lost without this person by my side. I didn't believe time would heal me and just felt like I would be miserable forever!

Then, yesterday it clicked.

Why am I the one moping around??? This person couldn't care less about me and yet I am still wasting energy even thinking about them... That doesn't even make any sense!

I knew who I was before they came into my life and now that this person is gone, it gives me a chance to be even better than before.

It's so cliche to tell you all that I realized I'm too good for this person and how they weren't worth my time to begin with, but it's true!

It took me a moment to get there, and I had to be reminded a few times as well. Still, to not being doing the things I love [like blogging!], getting out of my house and spending time with people who actually care because I'm crying over someone else is nuts and I refuse to do so [anymore]!

It helps to log in and see I still have you all reading my blog [eventhough there has been a lack of content].

As my 'blogaversary' approaches it feels so good to be back to my former self; the girl who was confident and happy and excited to be starting something so important to me [this blog, of course!]... If that isn't fabulosity, I don't know what is!

It fills me with pride and pleasure to be able to say to myself, 'Hello, old friend. I've missed you so.'

i say yes to Sprummer

What is Sprummer, you ask? Sprummer is that little pocket of time between Spring and Summer where the weather has decided it can do whatever it wants from 80˚ scorching, sunny days to blustery winds and mini-monsoons (is mini-monsoon an oxymoron?)! So then why say ‘yay’??! For the cute style opportunities of course! Take a look at these…

Aren’t those some of the cutest shoes? One of the coolest things is that they were each less than $10! The black pair is from Payless. One word: BOGO. Because of BOGO I got them for $9.99, when they were originally about $30. Saved myself twenty dollars! As for my faves (cream pair), these were just too cute to resist! I got them from the Gap and they were marked down to $14.99. I know, I know. That’s not ten dollars, right? Well, it was after I applied my discount coupon I received via email! If I recall right, I was able to purchase those sandals, another pair in black (for my mommy), a cute plaid skirt and some boxers to sleep in. Less than $25 spent, which would have been the Payless shoes alone, full price… If you ask me, that is true fabulosity! Now, what will I pair these with? ;)
