5 on Friday!


What a week! Thank God it's Friday!
Here are the 5 things that made the top of my list this week...

|| one ||
My Hokies played their bowl game on New Year's Eve against UCLA. It was a sad, sad, sad game. Once Logan Thomas was out in the 2nd quarter, I became terrified of what next season holds for us as far as a QB is concerned. I hope Scott Loeffler has some magic trick up his sleeve for Mark Leal or whomever may be taking over for LT. If not, it is going to be a LONG season...

I have so many things to look forward to this month, the most important one being my trip to FLORIDA for my birthday! I cannot wait to trade my snowy view for this;

I am not a huge fan of NYE traditions. I just don't understand the hype. I rang in the new year just the way I like -- Chinese take out, binge watching 2013 recaps, and getting into bed by 11pm. Not only do I not love NYE, I'm also kind of a Grandma and can't stay up that late. Maybe there will come a time when I'll be excited for a new year, but that certainly wasn't this one!

I'm a little disappointed with the snow that is outside right now. All of the weathermen had predicted that #hercules would drop 12-18 inches of the white powder last night, and when I woke up, there were barely 6 inches. I was really looking forward to a snowday where I could sit in bed, drink coffee, and read all day instead of going to work. Did y'all get any snow?

I am still so in love with my hair from my blowout at the drybar last weekend. Yesterday I made my way into Sephora and purchased some of the products that they used on my hair in hopes that I can recreate the look (and the smell -- oh my goodness they smelled SO good) on my own!



The true test will come this afternoon when I use them all before I go to work! I have to admit that I'm also shocked that the prices on these things were cheaper at Sephora than they were on Amazon, or at the salon. Here's to hoping that I can recreate the Mai Tai like they did in NYC!

I'm adding a 6th favorite part about this week because I can.
Alabama lost their bowl game.

I even stayed up late to finish watching the game. I never do that unless the Hokies are playing. Oh, also, Trevor Knight is a beast. That is all.

What were your favorite parts about this week!?

The Return of College Football. #beatbama

#beatbama
It's been my motto since 2009, the last time my beloved Hokies took on The University of Alabama in the Chik Fil A College Football Kickoff. While I will be tuning in to watch UNC take on USC tonight, I am no doubt ecstatic to don my maroon and orange, and watch my team on Saturday night.

I traveled to Atlanta 4 years ago to watch this matchup (granted, Tyrod Taylor was playing QB and our offense was much stronger... I'm not bitter about Logan Thomas or anything...). I truly wish that I could have made the journey again, seeing that it was hands down one of the best weekends of my life.

My entire sorority family made the 5 hour road trip to Atlanta. The car was packed with food, alcohol, and everything we could possibly need for a successful weekend. We stayed in Athens and were lucky enough to be able to explore both cities that weekend. Obviously the highlight of the weekend was the tailgate and the game in the Georgia Dome!






I would love nothing more than to be back in that dome on Saturday night! All I can ask for is that my Hokies play a respectable game and play with all they've got!
