Spring Break Fashion

It's almost March, guys! You know what that means? Spring Break!

Okay, well, at least it is for all you students and teachers. But that doesn't mean the rest of us can't dream up awesome plans! And what's more important than staying fashionable throughout all your fun activities?

Most of the clothing items featured are from One Stop Plus with accessories from Forever 21 & Old Navy. I've listed the items along with the price and store beneath each outfit.

Day of Shopping

My favorite! Every time my sister comes home from college, we always have to plan a day of shopping at our favorite stores. And no matter what city I visit, I always end up having to make a shopping trip. I absolutely adore this tribal print kimono!
Top: Old Navy - $15 // Kimono: Forever 21 - $20 // Jeans: One Stop Plus - $49 // Wedges: Forever 21 - $33

Sight-seeing

What's Spring Break without a little bit of touristy fun? Comfortable shoes are key! Plus a big bag to stick all your goodies in. These leggings are actually a skull print (and I don't like skulls), but it's so hard to tell from a distance!
Top: One Stop Plus - $39 // Leggings: One Stop Plus - $35 // Boots: One Stop Plus - $65 // Bag: Forever 21 - $28

Night out

Everyone needs to let loose a little bit! And contrary to popular college belief, you don't need to dress in two little sheets of paper to be cute!

Dress: One Stop Plus - $69 // Booties: Forever 21 - $33 // Purse: Forever 21 - $15

Date night

Okay, so I won't be having date night more than likely, but how cute would this outfit be? And paired with a leather jacket if it's a little chilly? YES!

Top: One Stop Plus - $52 // Skirt: One Stop Plus - $36 // Heels: Forever 21 - $23 // Ring: Piperlime - $24

Beach

True story: I've never actually been to the ocean before, but a girl can dream.
Swimsuit: One Stop Plus - $69 // Flip-flops: Old Navy - $10 // Sunglasses: Anthropologie - $38 // Bag: Forever 21 - $4

 
Don't these outfits make you so excited for Spring? What's your favorite outfit?

Nursing School Year in Review

Wrapping up the review of last school year two days before I start my last first-day-of-school. Bittersweet. Here's a look at April & May!




All that freaking out and studying paid off. I ended up on the Dean's List for Spring 2012. I miss Mayo Clinic clinicals so much, especially now that I'll be starting my last semester of clinicals at Winneshiek Hospital, which only has 1 floor of rooms. We have to calculate IV drip rates manually because there aren't enough IV pumps (Mayo uses ALL IV pumps) and we have to manually draw up Insulin to mix (Mayo uses Insulin pens which are super, super easy). We are in for a rude awakening...

I remember how many tests and projects I had back in November before finals week - yikes! So stressful!

Nursing School Year in Review

Being that I was a bad blogger and didn't update barely anything on here during this all important year in Rochester for nursing school, I thought I'd post some updates over the next few weeks from Twitter to share what my year was (kind of) like. Follow me on Twitter for more updates this summer and next semester while I finish out my nursing school career!

But first, go join up with Meg for Mingle Monday & spread the word about your blog. I love following new blogs & most of them I find through Mingle Monday so check it out.


Mingle 240


Also, Robin from Sunshine State of Mind is giving away $30 gift card to Target on Neely's blog today. And who doesn't love Target?!


A Complete Waste of Makeup



First up is August/September adventures! Oh how inexperienced & naive I was!

L-U-T-H-E-R. Luther! Luther! LUTHER!

Before Senior Send-off. Nursing Home First Semester (minus Stacy & Laura)

The Nursing Home Second Semester (minus Katie) at Senior Send-off with "Martin Luther"

All of the girls heading to Senior Send-off

Most of the Nursing majors at the bar crawl.

On our way to graduation!

I graduated!!

Well, kind of. I still have 1.5 years of Nursing school, but 1 year of that will be spent here at home in Rochester doing classes & clinicals at Mayo Clinic.

But, nonetheless, I graduated!! And I'm so thankful I got to walk with some of my best friends.

Senior Week 2011 started Thursday morning and continued all the way up to graduation & I had so much fun! Senior Send-off on Thursday was filled with good friends, good food, & good music. Our Nursing bar crawl on Thursday night was EPIC to say the least. Nursing majors are very crazy, I must say. On Friday we went out to T-Bock's for supper one last time for Sara's 23rd birthday and then played Apples to Apples. Saturday morning, my roomies got their Nursing pin in a ceremony & all of our families gathered at our house for a potluck. We walked down to the Sugar Bowl for some yummy yummy ice cream, came back & ate more greasy food and then headed to Baccelaureate. We woke up on Graduation morning & ate some rhubarb apple crisp for breakfast. After graduation & pictures, we packed up the rest of our house and said our goodbyes and moved out. And to top off an eventful weekend, on our way home to Rochester, we got pulled off the road in Harmony because the Tornado sirens were going off and the power was out. We stood in a Kwik Trip bathroom, in the dark with some other Luther grads that were heading home for about 45 minutes before it was safe to leave again. Good thing we pulled over too because the tornado touched down about a mile from us. Scary! The pictures above are just some from Senior Week. More graduation photos will be added when I have time. I'm deep cleaning my room & getting new furniture this afternoon so I've been really busy!

The Hills are ALIVE!

I made it through my crazy week with all those tests & projects and I came out alive! This weekend was extra fun too! 

First of all, the Jason Derulo concert was awesome! He's a great entertainer, an awesome live singer, and MAN, HE CAN DANCE! I haven't put any of the video or pictures that I took on my computer yet, but once I do, I'll be sure to post a few.

I had my Same Day Surgery rotation that next morning at 7am so I was quite tired, but it was super interesting. I got to see a bilateral hernia repair and a knee arthroscopy. I loved being able to see what goes on during a surgery, but I've determined I never want to work there. I don't like the demeanor of surgeons. They just seem like they think they're God's best gift to mankind and I don't like that attitude in helping professions.

Friday night I stayed around the house and watched E.R. reruns and fell asleep at like 10:30pm cause I was so exhausted.

Saturday was gorgeous outside so our house just hung out together and made a Walmart run. My best friend since high school, Sarah, came down to visit Caitlin and me and come to a party Caitlin's house was throwing. The theme was Nerdgasm and it was a blast! We basically walked all over the college senior housing area of Luther and went to a few houses and the bar. On our way home, right across the street from Caitlin's house, these 3 freshman girls were wasted beyond belief and could barely stand and were trying to puke (too much information?) so we brought them into Caitlin's and being the nice seniors we were, we got them water and a trash can and had them sit on the couch for awhile before we walked them back to their dorm room. I felt really good being able to use my nursing skills and help out girls who are still young and vulnerable :)

Today, Caitlin, Sarah, Caitlin's dog, Rusty, and I all walked down to Dunning Springs and took pictures and talked and then we had to make Sarah experience a tornado at Whippy Dip. I had a Twix Tornado, which was DELICIOUS! By the way, it is BEAUTIFUL outside today. It was super humid this morning since it rained around 4am, but right now it's sunny, slightly breezy, and 85! I love this weather!

Hopefully it's beautiful where you are! And I heard there's supposed to be severe thunderstorms here tonight along with like everywhere in the midwest, so STAY SAFE! haha!

To close, here's a few pictures from a couple parties we had at our house a few weeks ago!

The Spring Semester "Nursing/Education Home" during our infamous "I Just Had Sex" Party
