Happy February!

So I really love February. I love love and pink and red and frills and lace and hearts, ya know. I just do. And I have some fun stuff planned for the blog the week leading up to Valentine's Day! I'm very excited about it, so stay tuned~ 
In other news.... 
I've decided to quit my job. 
It's a pretty scary thing to bring up, I think, but I feel it is the best thing for me at this time. Remember how overwhelmed I said I was in my last post? With the realization of how much work I will have to do taking FOUR studio art classes plus an art history course? Well, the only way I think I'll be able to survive this semester is to dedicate most of my time to my art, and I can't do that while working late shifts during the week and day shifts on the weekends (I could really use that daylight on the weekends for photography opportunities). 
Yes, I'm scared about our money situation. Thankfully Ryan is working this semester. 
Let the starving artist life begin.... 
In other other news, I have been watching The Lizzie Bennet Diaries and it is hilarious and very intriguing. Check it out (if you already haven't) to watch Pride and Prejudice in the 21st century. Seriously, that's like all I did this weekend, besides going to work. 

dress & blouse: thrifted, pin: Wet Seal, shoes: Payless, hair clip: Mod Cloth (came free with my order!)

  1. This semester has been SUPER overwhelming for me too so far, which lead me to dropping a class last week, hopefully that will make life a tad bit easier. But I totally understand your situation, Im sure everything will work out for you. On the other hand I hope you share all of your art this semester on the blog! I want to see it!

  2. Last semester I had to drop out of my classes so that I can take on more hours at work and really get more experience. So even though it's the opposite, I can totally get where you're coming from. Best of luck to you!

    P.S. you're dress is so adorable! :)
