a month of vacations, taking way too many pictures of everything, finally relaxing, realizing how amazing dunkin' donuts is (seriously, y'all, their hashbrowns :P)
road trip // polaroid pictures // listening to "hamilton" + "the greatest showman" // just had my wisdom teeth taken out so i could barely smile or talk, xD
lots and lots of canoeing + kayaking // sticky s'mores and glowsticks // playing chubby bunny until late at night // laughing till you nearly cry // sunset over the water
j u l y
a month of swim team, waking up way too early on saturdays to drive to swim meets, lots of iced coffee + bagels, realizing how much I love fresh flowers, and reading way too many books
a u g u s t
a month of snow balls (ice cream + sno cone = amazingness), movies, binge watching The Office, reading like crazy before school starts, comfort books (harry potter), coffee, nails done, finished my novel, college essays
flying with one of my best friends for a week-long vacation // tubing on a river // staying up till midnight watching The Office + Bones // eating ice cream from the carton // drinking coffee at eleven at night and laughing bc we're still so tired // way too many pics + videos // finished my novel!!

little brother: "wow i have lots of muscles!"
mom: "uh huh really?"
little brother: "yea like ten!"

discovered caffeinated chocolate (i literally typed that as coffee first, and didn't realize until i came back to proof read xDDD) at my community college's bookstore << it's amazing
realized how i much i love fall bc #sweaters and hot drinks and flannels *heart eyes*. also, this is the year i will FINALLY try a pumpkin spice latte.
the office. just, the office. absolutely hilarious.

Caffeinated chocolate???? Who knew?
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great summer! My summer in one word: BOOKS. Literally. It was just books. And I would be more excited for fall if, you know, school wasn’t included as part of the deal. XD
Great post, Allison! Have a great fall and September!
I know, right? Caffeinated chocolate is my new favorite thing, xD.
DeleteSounds like you had a great summer! Ah yes...fall would be even better if school didn't start :P
Thanks, Nicole! <3
I AM READY FOR FALL!!!
ReplyDeleteI live in Texas which means intense heat. It's so bad. I need colder weather now. XD And pumpkin waffles. Cold weather, hazelnut candles, and pumpkin waffles. XD
THOSE BOOTS!!!
I love cowboy boots and I have a pair. I love wearing boots, honestly.
I love how you formatted your post. It's super aesthetic!
Have a great September! <3
Ah yes, Texas heat x_x. One time we took a family vacation to Texas, which was a lot of fun, but it was in August. And incredibly hot. xD
DeleteAw, thank you! <3 <3
YES, AUGUST IS THE WORST!
DeleteAugust is the hottest month in Texas, it's so crazy. September is warm, but sometimes we get these brief little cool downs where it is actually nice outside. *crosses fingers*
Congrats on finishing your novel!! *cheers*
ReplyDeleteAnd although I've never watched The Office before, my friend loves it. (Perhaps I'll have to give it a try this fall.) But, I do watch Bones, and I'm obsessed with it!
I hear you on the being-ready-for-fall thing. I'm completely ready to wear hoodies 24-7 again. :P
Thank you!! <3
DeleteOh my word, The Office is amazing + hilarious. There are some *cough* interesting moments, but we fast forward them and the rest is pure amazingness, xD. Ah, I love Bones so much! <3 <3
YES, hoodies! <3 <3
This was such a cute post and OH MY WORD, YOUR BOOK COVER IS SO CUTE!!! <3 <3
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you! <3 <3
DeleteI am soooo ready for fall! I mean, I have been since July...haha!
ReplyDeleteyayyy Hamilton! and Harry Potter! those deathly hallows earrings are too cute.
caffeinated chocolate sounds amazing.
CONGRATS ON FINISHING YOUR NOVEL!!!! I was reading the snippets in your last post, and it sounds like something I need in my life right now. I mean, guy-girl PLATONIC FRIENDSHIPS Y'ALL. *shouts it louder for the people in the back*
loved all your pics!
xx
Mira
Aw, thank you! YESSSS guy/girl platonic friendships <3 <3. oh my word, I can rant about that for hours (I'm thinking of writing a post about why they're so important).
Deletethank you, Mira! <3 <3
Loved reading this post! Canoeing and kayaking is fun! And those s'mores look soooo yummy!
ReplyDeleteAll of your pictures are awesome! Especially the vase with the flowers from your book! :)
