Enter the dragon

So, I've been neglecting my blog for a bit but I am back on cue. Grad school has demanded my full attention and time. I had about 2 meltdowns and 1 breakdown this week. This is my last semester, so I have the hang of things, but that doesn't always make them easier.

Decided to have a grad meeting out with with students last night. Most were sympathetic and told me that they were having the same problems. It's nice to hear you're not alone sometimes. 

Well before I knew it, Lent is already upon us! I am attempting to give up swearing this year. The last couple of months I have been bad. So in an attempt at purification here we go! In the spirit of Lent, we went to Origami last night. Now the place is quaint, but their selling point is that they have a real Japanese sushi chef and their menu is supposed to be pretty authentic. It took almost 3 hours for me to get my food last night. 😭 Ot was delicious but after waiting for almost 3 hours I was just about ready to have my ordee changed to breakfast since I was going to be there that long. First one there, and last one to get my food. I had the Dragon roll with a philly role on the side. It was beautiful an delicious (though admittedly not 3 hours of delicious). I recommend going here on any day but Friday! Kelly 1, dragon 0. 

Yours,

Spoiled

I generally have a very apathetic, angst attitude towards Valentine's Day. It seems one way or another it gets you. If you're single you can go out with friends and have fun, but run the risk of throwing disgusted glances at happy couples flaunting their love. If you're in a relationship you may giggle at all the single-tons getting wasted on this day, while walking arm in arm with your loved one. 

Even if you are under the impression that Valentine's Day was invented to make you feel stupid and take you're money you find a way to let yourself feel guilted into either not being in a perfect relationship, or that you will be single forever and die alone. (Been there before, and usually find myself indulging in chocolate and wine like I'm Brisget Jones, texting friends how I hate this holiday and it's stupid anyways). 

This year I was fortunate enough to have a wonderful Valentine's Day where I was spoiled and everything seems to fall into place. I couldn't have asked for a better day. Hopefully, everyone's was just as wonderful! 

Yours,

Tropical paradise

Somedays I feel very fortunate to be able to a grad assistant at this gorgeous university. It is easy to forget that I am a student, and enjoy my surroundings in a tropical paradise. The feeling to want to go to class in a swim suit can be contagious at times. This university, and in fact some of the buildings, face directly on to the bay. The sparkling blue just makes you want to run into the water on a hard day. 'Tis a good life here at #TAMUCC 

Blue Valentine's Day

Don't be blue on your Valentine's Day! But if you are go blue in style. On this post I have Missguided dress, with a slightly sheer midriff. I completed the look with Forever 21 red clutch bag and chunky accessory necklace. Wear some Burberry for fun and rock your favorite heels. I choose a cute feathered pair that are lighter on my feet. 

You don't want to get lost in the crowd of a see of red and pink outfits, but with this outfit you will be sure to stand out whether you are on a date or just a night out on the town. 

But first let me take a selfie

Smirking on my lunch break. I am wearing an Anne Taylor open blouse and showing off the Tiffany & Co. key necklace I got for Xmas. It's so pretty! Gotta love the Tiffany blue 😍. Back off to doing some PR for work. 

Yours,
Kelly
