All Settled In

Hey Everyone! I am so sorry that it has been so long since I have posted! Between getting here, exploring beautiful Texas and starting school, I have been bussssy! I have finally got all settled in though and I thought I would share with you my new oasis :) About a month ago I moved into a 4 bedroom, 4 1/2 bathroom townhome about 2.5 miles off of campus that I absolutely LOVE! I moved in with one of my best friends from high school, Brianna, Tara and Melanie, two amazingly sweet medical students from San Antonio, Texas. A home is never really done, but making it feel "homie" is what I do best. 

Now WELCOME to my humble abode... 

Have I have always loved the color purple, so I added purple and gold accents to a black and white room. Thanks to my amazing mom and her creative eye and my handy dad, I got everything set up and hung. I would love to here y'alls feedback and your likes and dislikes:) If you have any questions on where I got anything, let me know and I will get back to you! 

So now that you have seen my cubical of love... here are some of the amenities I get to enjoy for the next year:) 

 A rad full size gym, with a yoga room (P90X and Insanity included), free weights, treadmills and ellipticals.  

 And the view from the gym is this crystal blue, olympic size pool with swim up bar and jacuzzi! The only way to relax on a hot Texas day! 

Thank you so much for reading, friends! I hope you enjoyed!

Moving UPDATE!!

So we are down to 5 days till I pick up my life and move it halfway across the country! Every day, as it gets closer the more nervous and excited I get. Brianna (best friend & roommate) and I finally got introduced to our new roommates via Facebook, and so far they seem sweet! Two girl medical students.. I think this will work out nicely (: Our new home is a 4 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom townhouse just off campus enough to get away from the craziness of new freshman and frat parties. (Pictures to come once we get there) I am truly excited for my new oasis, and it totally helps that there is a full size gym and an olympic size pool... no complaints here! 

As of now most of my life is packed up and stored in the garage, so that means my room is becoming bare and plain. I still have things here and there, but sooner rather than later it will all be strategically placed in two cars and I will be starting the 17 hour trek to Lubbock, Texas. Most 23 year olds would have never came back home to live with their parents, but honestly.. the last 7 months have been nice, peaceful and definitely will be missed. Who knows where life will take me from here... and I am lucky that I got to be able to come back and spend some quality time with the two people who love me the most <3 

Also.. never mentioned my parents do custom framing! So before I left I helped them make me some one of a kind decorations for the new place.

And a memento of where I came from and where I am going, with one of my favorite inspirational quotes! 

Thanks mom and dad <3
