Today, I felt like a grown up. Well, kind of. I moseyed on over to Target today along with what seemed to be every other person in town and picked up my first work tote. While I have been trying to be more spending conscious, I consider it to be an investment in my future. Since I'm taking a year off between undergrad and law school in an effort to keep my sanity, that means interviews! Hopefully followed by offers. Hopefully followed by a job and a steady paycheck. Consider me hopeful. Oh, I just can't wait for the future. Here is le bag, which will be seeing many a successful interview.
Onto today's outfit post. Yes, I have navy, gray, and brown all in one outfit. On top of that, I feel like I look like I'm about to go horseback riding, which no one in my family has ever had any luck with. I have distinct memories of going out riding with my family and my father's horse improvised, wandering out into a field and stubbornly refusing to get back onto the trail. I think he actually tried negotiating with the four-legged friend. Pretty amusing.

It's 2011, honeys! I hope everyone ended 2010 with a bang. I personally went out with some of my best lady frans, had (more than) a few pints, and listened to some awesome live music. One girl in particular was definitely feeling said live music. Boy was she busting a move all by her lonesome in front of the stage. I applaud her for her zest for life. Then we walked around downtown, got a fire engine to toot their horn, gave fabulous directions to some out-of-towners only to see them head in a completely different direction, got random high-fives from some guy while his friend kept saying how he was new to America, and watched the fireworks at midnight from the top of a parking garage (and stared into peoples' swanky downtown lofts). Interesting sequence of events, yes?
So today's outfit post is brought to you in video format purely by accident. I noticed a few entirely awkward things about myself in the quick 8 seconds. 1.) I make weird noises when having my picture taken. 2.) I have a laugh similar to Kendra Wilkinson, which I am not too happy about. 3.) My greeting to the world was "wassup." If I was ever in a situation when I addressed the entire global population, I truly hope I can find something a bit more eloquent to say rather than "wassup, world." So, there you have it: me in all my awkward glory. 'Til next time, honeys!
