So, I usually hate that expression, but it applies to this situation perfectly. I have been a little lazy in the blogging world from the writing standpoint, but very active from the reading standpoint. My new obsession: YoungHouseLove. I am a few years behind on all of their blogposts, so I have been reading each and every one from the start. Needless to say it is an addiction.
In other news, I have been doing pretty well this wonderful month of February. This semester is almost at its midpoint! Spring break is around the corner (Yay!), and my graduation date gets closer and closer. I am not sure if I am excited or terrified by the prospect of getting a "big girl" job. I went to a career fair last week, and I was a little daunted. I really hope I will not have too much trouble breaking into the job market come May. More updates as I peruse jobs and get more nitty gritty into the job-seeking process come late March.
Thanks to my aforementioned obsession with younghouselove, I have been making little updates around the apartment that I am very proud of. Roman and I went thrifting at the local Salvation Army and brought home some great finds in need of just a little TLC. We found a nice lamp base (ugly blue color) that I happily spray-painted plum! I also found the cutest lampshade at Target which brought the total cost of a custom-looking bedside lamp to $26! I also made a recent update to the drawer pulls on my dresser. Before there were some icky gold and oldfashioned pulls, and now I have some swanky-looking oil-rubbed bronze ones to the tune of $19.98 thanks to Target clearance! Don't worry, I will make sure to include pictures as soon as tonight! :) Sadly, I do not have the befores but I will make sure to include them for my next projects which are sure to come in the near future.
