Hi friends! I hope you are having a good day despite all the insanity, haha! I’m so ready to stop talking about politics and start celebrating Thanksgiving and Christmas (and shopping all the holiday sales)! On a different note, I finally understand why college students are so crazy this time of year, it’s because EVERYTHING is due right now. Let’s just say my ability to wait until the very last minute to start an assignment and still get it done on time is being put to the test. Also, we are down to our last few cheer practices before break and are switching from football to basketball so things are equally as crazy and exciting in the gym. Aside from class and cheer I’ve been having a lot of fun since we last chatted! In the past two weeks I saw two movies, The Accountant and Hacksaw Ridge. Both were so good and the movie theatre here makes the experience that much better. Not only do they have recliners, they have butt warmers too!! I’d rate it a 10/10!;) I also made another trip to the zoo with some of the girls on my team! And last weekend my friend, Hannah, was home from Clemson and I got to see her for the first time since August and meet some of her sweet friends!

Also while I was home I got to see my family! I miss them so much at school and love seeing them! I wish Amanda could live here with me sometimes. She is always my favorite concert date and shopping buddy and she makes me laugh all the time! We pretty much have the exact same style, these two outfits together totally prove it. Normally when we go to the mall, we split up in the store and then meet up in the dressing room and more often than not we both have at least one of the same things picked out. One of our recent picks are patchwork. It is so trendy and perfect for fall! I love this patchwork dress from Philanthropy. It pairs perfectly with the suede cross body, also from Philanthropy, and the layered bracelets from Sunkissed Jewelz. Amanda’s look is a more casual take on the patchwork trend. Her jeans were a clearance find from Aeropostale and her laced-up tank is also a clearance find from American Eagle! Both of these outfits would be perfect for fall parties or Thanksgiving dinners!

Have a great week!

Xoxo, Sam
