The BOOT

Ya, I know I don't even really look close to that cute today. :( But unfortunately, yesterday, I sprained my ankle from slipping on some stairs. And I can barely walk on it. Thankfully, one of my roomies had a boot she used from before and it made it so much better for me to walk to classes and go to work today. Of course, this meant that I had to pick something else for my other foot to kind of match and all that really worked was tennis shoes. So my outfit isn't that great...sorry. :( Hopefully my ankle will get better soon and I won't have to wear the boot anymore. I guess it just gives me more of a challenge on how to dress each day!

Sleep Deprived with a Sprained Ankle

So ya, it's like 3 am right now. :/ But I can't fall asleep. So here's the story:

Today I was walking home from class when I slipped on some stairs (you know how some stairs have like the metal edge on the corners? that's what I slipped on) and sprained my ankle or something, because I immediately felt immense pain. So I just hurried and walked home (I was already way embarrassed about slipping because there had been other people around that saw) limping the whole way. Well my ankle felt a tiny bit better when I got home, but I walked into my room and I felt something twist/pull/tear in my ankle and it hurt A TON. And it's been feeling worse ever since.

I couldn't work on my homework after that because the pain was very distracting so I ended up going to bed at like 10:30 pm, hoping to just wake up to my ankle feeling better. Nope.

I woke up at 2:20 am because my foot was uncomfortable and was hurting and now I cannot go back to sleep. I'm super tired but I have never been in more physical pain in my entire life. :( This hurts so bad, and I've been crying since I woke up because the pain is so hard to handle. My ankle is all swollen and bruised too. And all this brings me to this point in time, where I'm now sitting in a semi-ok position that doesn't hurt my ankle as bad (it still kills though) and am writing in my blog.

Thankfully. my wonderful roommate Dani happened to have a boot from when she sprained her ankle before, and my ankle feels 100 times better when I wear it, actually making my ankle walkable. So thank goodness for that, otherwise I'd probably have to stay home from classes because it hurts SO BAD to walk.

So that's my completely pointless post for everyone. Mostly I'm just writing this because I'm super bored and needed to tell this story to "someone." And everyone is usually asleep at this time, so my blog wins the award. ;)

Ok, and I just read through this and I don't want to sound like a complainer so I'm gonna write 3 things I'm grateful for. I'm grateful for: healthy feet that can do anything (like dance), sleep, and this laptop. K good night. :)

Piano Girl

Ok, so I love the piano. I have many loves in life and piano is definitely at the top of the list. So today I found an empty piano room in the fine arts building and decided it was the perfecto place to take my outfit pictures today. It just fit my mood. :) It's been fun trying to find new places to take pictures for my daily outfit. I think it just adds something. Anyways, that's all.

Just Happy :)

Today has been a great day. Really, I am loving college. This year is already going so much better than last year. My job at the bookstore is amazing, I adore all my classes, I've really been doing my homework and enjoying it, I've been making so many new friends, and the best part..? Well, I joined BYU's creative writing literary journal! Yep, so technically I have 5 English classes now. But I'm so excited because I can get experience editing. It's a 3 credit class that's once a week and I think it'll be super fun. Anyways, that's why I'm happy. It really has nothing to do with the outfit today, though that made me pretty happy too. :)

Hippie-ish

I LOVE this shirt. I wasn't sure about it at first when I bought it, but after plenty of approval from friends, I got it and I now I just love it 10 times more. I just like how loose it is with the kimono sleeves and pretty flower design. Ha I kinda felt like a hippy in it too. :)

P.S. I didn't realize how much blue I've been wearing! Don't worry, I already know what I'm wearing tomorrow and it's NOT blue. ;)
