1. I got an A on my first midterm at SDSU.This might mean that I will get an A in the class. I haven't gotten my second midterm back yet, but I feel like I have the foundation to pull it out when push comes to shove.
2. I bought a new Alex and Ani Bracelet. I gave into the east coast craze. I have never before been really into wearing braclets. I mean, I have been wearing a watch on my left wrist every day for 13 years but bracelets have always bothered me for some reason. I gave it a try because my close friend Megan told me she was thinking about getting one. I was pleasantly surprised by how used to it I got. I noticed one of my co workers has one as well. I am counting the moments before I break down and invest in a pandora bracelet.
3. I came up with a new system for discretionary income that has been working quite well for the last 3 months. This month I bought the lipstick and the dress, and I'm looking forward to having a system to having luxury items at the cost of smaller things. I am still thinking about a pair of curved heel Miu mius ever since they got popular in spring of 2012. Thats how long I obsess about items. I think I might have missed my opportunity on those, like I did with the Kate spade Rainey Dress.
4. I visited Joshua tree in October. And I had a blast! I am pretty sad that I won't be able to maintain a high quantity of climbing through the rest of this year, but
5.I got a cold. I never treat myself well when I am sick. I don't feel good when I exercise and have to sacrifice productivity for health. Its just hard to get better.
6) I bought a tube of Stila Beso lip stain. I have been thinking about a lot of beauty items I've heard about online lately actually. Atlantic Pacific completes almost every outfit with super red lipstick, and I finally broke down and bought the same brand. Its probably the only thing that she wears that I could afford to copy.
Sorry about the cheesy picture. I have been feeling a bit ill and I didn't want to take another one.
7) Athleta Dress. My friend Casey told me about these awesome garments, albeit somewhat indirectly. I tried it on in the store and LOVED it. That was several months ago. It was very flattering and so cozy but for some reason I felt like waiting. Now, finally, I had an occasion. Its november so I'm just in time to start my month long obsession with what I am going to wear to my company christmas part. Then, serendipitously, they had a fall 20% off sale. I haven't found a lovely occasion to wear it yet, but I have a feeling that this is going to be my new favorite dress.
8). I can do 35 pushups, 70 crunches, and 50 squats. I have been practicing this capability before bed every night. I am really proud of myself for keeping it up so long!
9) I am doing an X-files movie marathon. I am currently on season 2. The 90s were truly a transitional era. Molder keeps referring to his cell phone as a "cellular phone". Scully uses a tape voice recorder to document her verbal autopsies then types them by hand later. At one point, Scully uses a marker to draw a circle around a potential suspect on her computer screen. Deciding that the 90s are retro is really making me feel old.
10) I was nothing for Halloween. This is a rather anticlimatic end of a post. I didn't really have the energy to go out this year like I have other years, and i'm sort of disappointed about it. I even had a party to go to. Its the years that I don't make an effort when I really appreciate the whimsy of the holiday.
