Pumpkin Carving!!

Carving pumpkins will always be my favorite part of Halloween! So when the guy I am dating mentioned it I was immediately game! Bet you can't figure out which one is mine? Just kidding everbody knows mine is the ghost with the bow! He chose a very spooky graveyard pattern! The entire afternoon so such a nice break from being an adult! 

Take that #9!

I know it's Tuesday but I am still very jazz'ed about Ole Miss' win over LSU! 

Not just because their fans smell like corn dogs but also because they WERE ranked number 10! It was down to the final field goal in the fourth quarter. The crowd went wild, the students rushed the field and the square was crazier than Bourbon street during Mardi Gras! 

Needless to say I love Ole Miss... win or lose... maybe more when we win! 

Those Three Little Letters

     A while ago/during the summer, I announced that it was time to start studying for my GRE. Well last Thursday I took it! Honestly, it could have gone a lot worse, I felt prepared and was in high spirits when I left the testing center. Generally I let these "little" things stress me out but in reality it's just another test. There will be a graduate school or a career who accepts me. I just get to endure the joys of searching for it. My LAST advising session is on Wednesday! I am excited to search for more opportunities and adventures. I am hoping to move to a young persons city. Maybe Seattle, Boston, Nashville, even back to DC if that is where the wind takes me! Better watch out because this  southern transplant may be moving to a city near you! 

Just a quick shout out to Diet Coke for getting me through last week!

P.T.Y- Pretty Young Thetas 

This is JUST the new pledge class! 

We handed out 142 bids on Sunday! Needless to say all of the hard work we put in this recruitment season as paid off! Bid day was an absolute blast- but isn't it always! We stayed at the house to play games, dye tie pillow cases, taken millions of pictures and mingle. Words can not describe how awesome it is too see the new members with bids in hand running towards the house. Our chapter is larger than ever and I couldn't be more excited to watch it grow! 

Me and my Pansy Pal! Who is also from VA 

My sign'in sister and I! 

Happy Recruitment Week Rebels!

Happy Recruitment Week

 To the Ole Miss Ladies! 

I cannot believe it's my senior year! My sorority house has been my home for the past three years! I cannot wait to see who will call it home for the years to come. It is a stress week but watching the girls run down the hill in a week will be so worth it! 

The video reminds me just how blessed I am to find where I belong! 

Steals and Deals!

      So recently I have began to save for grad school. This means my shopping budget now is cute in half. Recently a good friend and I went to Memphis to escape the small town friday night. To have a little extra spending money I cleaned out my closet to bring to Plato's Closet- they give you cash on the spot for slightly used clothes. After leaving there with $90 dollars cash we ventured to Home Goods! Which is a dangerous move for me being on a budget and with the new hobby of cooking. I walked away from the store only spending $15... impressive for me! 

Seriously Sticky Fingers Mix makes the best scones! 

Found some at Home Goods! 

That left me with $85 left to spend... still a nice chunk of change considering I started with a bag full of sweater I wasn't going to wear again. Next we ventured to Stein Mart, where they were having a red dot sale. Of course it was all of their summer clothes, but any decent shopper knows the best deals are when you shop off season! I walked away with an adorable navy and white poka doted dress! (Picture to come I promise) With the sale and a coupon I walked away paying $11. Talk about a steal, two stores and I have only spent $36... new record for me. It wouldn't be a trip to Memphis without stopping at target. This is where things get cray cray! 

I just downloaded the Target Cartwheel application so I had some coupons! Who doesn't love virtual coupons?!? I walked away with two pairs of flats, a sweater, yoga pants, school supplies, toys for isla and a box of pumpkin cream cheese cookies for $68! My coupons where 20% off the shoes, 10% off the sweater, yoga pants and the dog toys. The school supplies was all on clearance... 4 cents a folder don't mind if I do! The only thing I paid full price for with the pumpkin cream cheese cookies and boy are those delicious!!! All in all I ended up only spending $14 out of my shopping budget, which in my book is a win! 

Seriously these cookies are amazing! 

For a limited time only so stock up!
