Another week down, another week closer to my trip back home! Eeep! That and the prospect of studying in Florence, Italy this summer are what is getting me through the semester. Although I have to say that this week has been pretty good, despite a little mini-breakdown I had Monday night. You know when you've just got so many different things racing through your head and you just need to explode a bit to let it all out? That's about what happened. And then I moved on and this week has been great!
1. I rocked this pretty pink & tan pastel scarf this week. Twice. Haters gonna hate.
2. I was able to relax a bit this week and have been catching up on this season's Bachelor. WOW. Pretty crazy! Still have some catching up to do, but I'm glad I got a little R&R in.
3. Berlioz was both cute and annoying this week. Cute when he's pictured here exploring my back porch. Not cute when he woke me up two days in a row at 4am by turning on the overhead light and fan. Yeah, he's too smart for his own good (he uses his teeth and can reach the switches from my bookshelf).
4. Back in December, I think I shared with y'all that my professor had asked to enter me into a design competition, sponsored by the local non-profit Graceful Solutions for Aging. (If I didn't, well, now you know!). Well this week, we had the competition banquet of sorts and, while I didn't win, I was a semi-finalist which is awesome! It was an honor to have all the sponsors be represented, to listen to the impact our designs had, and to see all the work of my talented peers being recognized. This is why I love interior design-- as designers, we have a huge impact on people, much more than many realize. And we can do so many good things for humanity, just through design. It gives me goosebumps!
5. And finally, I loved this reminder from Whole Foods. It fits right in with my Skin & Beauty Peace series this week, and it's just a good reminder to pay attention to what foods, products, and even thoughts you feed your body.
Have a great weekend, my beautiful readers! Love you all!

These are great!! That scarf is adorable so way to rock it twice. Also, the cat story made me laugh. I can imagine that being quite annoying that early in the morning! Might be time to scooch (I have no idea how to spell that) that bookshelf over an inch or two :)
