First Day of College and Giveaways Galore! :]

Hello, friends!

Just want to share with you all that I started my first day of college yesterday (Monday)...

I was super nervous of course because it's so different from high school, but it's exciting at the same time. My professors were all nice, albeit some were strict... but hey, it's college, so I wouldn't expect anything less.

School work isn't as hectic as everyone says... yet, lol.

I just have some readings to do, but it's manageable. :]

So, yup, that's pretty much what's been going on with me.

I'll keep you all in the loop about my new experiences as a college girl. Wow, so weird to say that!

On a different note, there are giveaways galore going on in the blog world.

Two of them are:

Carrie's $50 Cutieshey giveaway (http://www.readmylifeascarrie.blogspot.com)

And Mimi's Spirit Ink Tattoos giveaway (http://whatmimiwrites.blogspot.com/)

Mimi also has a chocolate giveaway going on right now, you can check out my sidebar for that. :]

Well, that's it for now.

Good night, my friends!

Back to School Shopping!

Hello!

First off, thanks for all your input about which laptop I shall get for school! I definitely want a MacBook Pro, but gotta consult the parents first. If not that, then I'd probably get another Apple laptop, something a bit cheaper. :]

Anywhoo, I am going back-to-school shopping this weekend, so exciting!

I've been looking at F21's site so I can get some ideas of what to get.

I definitely want a blazer.

And some basic tees.

Jeans, of course.

Cardigans would also be great, I heard classrooms can get super cold at times.

I also need shoes...

Some classic ballet flats.

Cute sandals!

Espadrille slip-ons...

And maybe something like this?

New school bag too...

Maybe this?

Aaahhh, I'm super excited! I'll be going to other stores too for sure, but this is just a rough idea of what I'll be getting.

Is there anything else I need to add to my college back-to-school shopping list?

Thanks in advance for the help!

I'm getting a new laptop! :)

Hello, friends! =)

Since I will be going to a school near home, I don't have to live in a dorm for college... some of my friends think that's not a good thing, but I think it is... I can only imagine the amount of money I can save by living at home.

Plus my parents said I can probably buy a new car by next year, yipee! But first, I am getting a new laptop for school (and blogging, of course)!

Do you have any suggestions? I have no idea which laptop to get...

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, my friends! =)

Congrats, Class of 2012!

Hello, friends!

So yeah the day has finally come... I am officially a high school graduate!

It's been a happy and sad kind of day! Very excited to see what life's going to be like after high school, but also sad that I won't be in the same school as my best friends anymore... but the happiness definitely took over.

Congrats to all the graduates! Congrats, Class of 2012!

Grad Nite @ Disneyland!

Hello!

I can tell that high school is coming to a close because all our Senior events are happening at full speed!

One of those sure to be fun events that I am so excited for is Grad Nite @ Disneyland!

Super excited!

Have you gone on Grad Nite? Any advice on how to handle being up all night?

What's the thing you love the most about Disneyland?

Have a happy happy weekend, my lovely bloggie friends!

It's the weekend!!!

Hello!

I can't believe it's finally the weekend!

I am so so so so happy that it's also a long weekend, thank you Martin Luther King Jr!

My teachers got so into giving tons of homework though so I am gonna have to work on a lot of that this weekend. Tonight though I am gonna relax, I'll do my homework tomorrow so I can have Sunday and Monday free to catch up on my TV shows and blog. Good plan, yes?

Have a happy weekend, friends!

Goodbye Break, Hello School...

I will be crying myself to sleep tonight because school starts tomorrow, lol.

I am excited to see my friends again but I liked being on break. ;P

But I don't really have a choice, so what I'm gonna do now is I will be in school tomorrow and I will be enjoying my last few months in high school. I say good plan!

Cute, no?

If you're going back to school tomorrow, good luck!

If you're still on break, lucky you, lol!

First post of 2012!

Hello!

I hope everyone had a happy new year!

Now that the celebrations are over, I'm sad to say that it's almost time to go back to school. :/

Gotta hit the books again.

I am excited for senior events, though.

Like prom... I am super excited to go and find the perfect prom dress

I want something like this:

And I am also part excited, part not so excited about graduation.

I can't wait to be done with high school, but I'm gonna miss my friends.

So I guess I better enjoy my last months in high school. =)

Happy new year again, everyone!

Anything you're excited about?

Is it really Christmas break?!

Hello!

I am very happy to share with you all that I am finally on Christmas break!

Friday was my last day at school and finals went pretty well. And thanks to Mimi, Bree, and Just Tututiny for taking the time to comment and for wishing me luck for finals! :)

I am so happy that I seem to be getting more and more readers and friends here on my blog. :D

Anywhoo, I was really planning on making a post earlier, but I fell asleep right when I came home.

After finals, my best friend and I went to our other friend's house for a little Christmas party. It was so fun!

I made cookies for my friends -- I kinda like giving food as gifts, everyone seems to love them. :)

Tomorrow (or really later on since it's technically Saturday...), I will be picking out a tree with my Mom. Super excited for that!

I'll probably be spending the day tomorrow helping my Mom decorate our tree. 

And I will definitely blog more!

Wishing you all a great weekend!

--Olivia :)

Finals start tomorrow!

So yup, finals start tomorrow! :O

I found this photo from Google and it pretty much explains my sentiments right now:

Haha, but c'mon, who likes finals, right?!

Anyway, I want to stop complaining because after all, this blog isn't supposed to be about that.

Just wanted to let you guys know that after this week, I'm gonna be able to blog more, yay!

I've also gotten some comments, so yay for that! Thank you so much to those who visit and comment!

Have a great week!

***UPDATE: I just found out that I got a blog award today! It's my first award and it totally made my day! Thank you so much, Bree!!! :D

Taking the ACT tomorrow!

Hello!

I just wanted to make a post before I sleep. 

I gotta wake up early tomorrow because I will be taking the ACT.

I haaaaate taking standardized tests, but I've got no choice...

I found this funny thing on weheartit.com:

Haha, that is very true!

I hope you guys have an awesome weekend! Please wish me luck! ;)
