TOMS warehouse sales.

I love TOMS. They are so comfortable, so adorable, and with each pair you are giving a child in need a pair of shoes. And the CEO of TOMS is a super great guy that started his dream in his own apartment with a few friends. I have found the greatest thing to happen to TOMS....EVER.

Time goes by so slowly?

Do you remember being told when you were younger "the older you get the faster time goes"? I can vividly recall a stranger telling a newly-16 year old me how quickly his life went, in the blink of an eye it was gone. Getting advice when you're 16 is so uncool - I remember thinking how long it took me to get to 16 and I was just positive that the rest of my life would go by so leisurely.
Here I am, wishing that I would have taken the advice I carelessly avoided. My life has so quickly and easily escaped me. How is it that I can remember my 16th birthday perfectly but I can hardly remember what I made for dinner last week? I've grown so much, from a girl into a teenager, and slowly from a teenager into a woman. A woman that wishes I spent a little more time enjoying the moment rather than wishing I was in the next. So many moments of my life have been wasted in wishing I was older, richer, wiser. But what happens to the moment I'm in? Will I be satisfied looking back with memories of wishes unfulfilled? I will never be older, richer, or wiser than I am in this very moment. And in this very moment I am choosing happiness. I am choosing to forget to fold the laundry (again), and I am going to sit outside and write in my journal. I challenge you, if there's anyone reading this besides me, to let go of any (and every!) thing holding you back. Allow yourself to be terrified. I know I am. But I know I'd much rather be afraid than remorseful of all the moments I spent wishing away.

Thrifty

Last night I went to our local goodwill and found an adorable dress (tags still on) and a great purse so I was already on a thrifting high; today my parents and I stop in real quick at a good thrift store near my house and I found this beauty. Could it get any better? I didn't think so, but when I asked an employee how much it was and she said $10 I almost hugged her. What a happy, happy thrifting weekend it has been.
