My name is Robin...

   Hi, my name is Robin... and I have a problem. (Then in my head I hear: "Hi Robin") But really I have a problem, I don't have enough money for all the clothes i.e. t-shirts and hats that I want so badly!! That is my addiction comfy t-shirts!

   I have been surfing the internet for weeks for summer clothes, and then finally today it hit 84F. It was finally HOT for the first time this year. I wanted to scream with excitement! I also realized that my dress style of jeans and a cute tank and sweater was getting a little too warm for this kind of weather. So now I get to move onto t-shirts to die for with running shorts for the end of the school year! One because regular shorts are too short for school- me being so tall. Two because it is getting into APs and Finals season, so everyone is dressing comfortably to say the least! So I get to wear cute t-shirts, running shorts, with the perfect preppy accessories, and of course a smile on my face!

   I have found the four holy websites for perfect t-shirts: Vineyard Vines, Southern Proper, Southern Marsh, and Lauren James! They all offer cute, bright, and preppy t-shirts for any girl and guy (but the Lauren James is just girls).

Here are some of my favorites!

Southern Proper- Red, White, & Bow Tee 

Lauren James- Girl's Best Friend

Vineyard Vines- Long-Sleeve

Southern Marsh-Authentic Long Sleeve

90's Comeback!

   I recently wrote a post about a month ago about Charli XCX and her new song- Boom Clap from The Fault in Our Stars Soundtrack. But more recently I am in love with the song Fancy by Iggy Azalea ft: Charli XCX! It is a great up beat song that I am sure will be a summer hit.
   The main reason I love Fancy is because of the music video!!! It is based on the movie Clueless (DEFINITION OF THE 90's!) plus one of my favorite TV shows. 90's comeback with Fancy music video and then Boy Meets World is having its spin-off Girl Meets World start this week! So much fun 90's news!

Check out the Fancy Music Video!

College... I'm only a Junior!

  I just got back from a full trip to Kentucky and back in less than 24 hours! 7 hours were of driving and 9 hours were of sleeping! So it has been a busy weekend already! 

   I am excited to be looking at schools and preparing for the coming four years that college in tells but I am also not wanting to put in all the effort of looking at colleges! I just want to be like here.. I want to go to (file in name later) school and then they tell me that I am accepted!!! Is that really that hard!!!! 

   Anyways!! I got a really cute Lilly Pulitzer dress out of the college trip! Can't wait to get even more later over the summer on shopping road trips! My favorite new store- Peppermint Palm in Louisville! They are fabulous and will help with all your Lilly needs. Plus they have a website- so google them sometime! 

   Have a happy Saturday to all and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

"Firsts"

   In honor of a wonderful senior-Gabby at my school who hosted Indy's first story slam last night, I am going to talk about some of my firsts. (Since firsts were the theme for last night's story slam)

   My first day of high school, which really wasn't so long ago. I mean, it was only 991 days ago-roughly. It also happened to be my first day of private school, so I got to have two firsts, which is pretty special. I didn't know how special it was until now.

   Looking back my high school has offered me so many firsts in my life. The first time I traveled by myself, was to Rome for January term, which also was my first January term. The first time I ran in the Spirit Run. The first time I felt smart. The first time ever standing up for human rights. The first time I got an A+/ 100% by myself. The first time EVER I played softball. The first time I was a part of a Dance Marathon. The first time I am not afraid to go to college. The first time I was president of something. The first time I started a club. The first time going to a leadership conference- with friends in California. The first time driving to school by myself, because my school doesn't have school buses. The first time I had to have a blog. The first time starting varsity for volleyball. The first time I started a fire. The first time I was interviewed for a newspaper. The first time I had to be outside in a snow squall- hopefully it was also the last time. The first time I felt noticed. The first time I particapted in the Polar Plunge (It was extremely cold and can't wait for next year!) The first time I am not considered stupid, but helpful. The first time I finally feel like me, Robin!

   I have only 364 days (not counting today) till May 1st, 2015! Decision day for me, I will be wearing my college t-shirt in exactly one year. My new home for the following four years. I have 402 days till I graduate from high school. It doesn't seem like 991 days I was just starting high school, and now it's almost over. I can't wait to see all the firsts that will come to me in the next 402 days, and also the unlimited number of days to follow that!
