Random Rant #1



Before you continue reading... I must warn you, I"m feeling a bit dramatic.

I find this picture so beautiful and so perfect for how I'm feeling right now. I"m honestly completely overwhelmed. I started an internship this week. An unpaid internship, but that don't matter. In just a matter of hours, I got to see a potential glimpse into a dream I've been nursing for so long. Taking on an unpaid part time internship was a bit tough financially, but it seriously drove some lightning through me. I makes me want to pray harder, work harder and dream harder. It makes me realize that this is not gonna be a quick and easy road. It also confirmed to me that with hard work and determination, I can make this dream a reality. Have I told you yet? Have I told you that I want to be a wedding stylist? I want to create the most inspired day that celebrates life, love and marriage.

My mom think I'm crazy for committing to this unpaid internship, but at the same time I think it finally hit her how badly I want this.

I found some inspiration tonight from my friend Stefanie Miles tweet.

Happy girls are the prettiest


This is something my grandmother always taught me when I was growing up. Her last question to me was "Are you happy?". It has been about 5 years since she passed away, but I still think of her daily. It is with out a doubt that she is the one most influential person in my life.

P.s
I went jeans shopping yesterday at T.J Maxx, but things got depressing. So I wandered into the shoes aisle. Everything suddenly got happier. Especially when I found these cute Madden Girl booties for $19.99
{this is why I"m obsessed with T.J Maxx}.



For those of you that know me personally, you're probably wondering what am I doing with those heels. Don't worry, before taking the tag off I walked around my condo last night for a good 30 minutes to make sure my feet can handle them.



I will also not attempt to be artistic when it comes to taking pictures in the future. I accidentally knock them off my balcony after this shot. I had to run down and then run around the corner in my pajamas to get them. Luckily all my neighbors are already at work or still asleep.



I also picked up some Turkish Delight while waiting in line. T.j Maxx is smart with their set up. I almost always picked up something in their waiting aisle.

P.p.s
I'm giving it another week before I go jeans shopping again. Sighs.
