bike

I have wanted to get a road bike for a really long time

been checking out all different kinds in stores and online

...you would think that after this summer i would no longer want one but that was not the case, I still had it on my birthday list.

well...... drum roll please!

I got an early birthday present from my cute father!

{ i got another one from Whitney but more on that later! }

  isn't she a beauty?! 

{and it was on sale :)}

so after 3 days of studying/cramming my brains out and doing nothing more then sitting and staring at my computer ALL day for 7 finals 

I was mentally checked out by wed at about 10 am. brain full, cant take anymore information in after so many days!

I got to do THIS...

 with my sister! we have fun

so if anyone wants to ride and teach me the ways of the road biking I am all for it!

P.S. one more day, one more final and I will have officially survived my first semester of dental hygiene school! Who is ready to party with me?!?!

sad

really missing her

its been a rough few days

katy perry

the night we got back from Chicago we got back just in time to make it to

Katy Perry!

I don't get the chance to go to many concerts. But this girl puts on an amazing performance!

Countless costumes that are all impressive! I want to be her for Halloween, or just for everyday life.
