Of course I mean to go to Target for one thing and always come out with extras that I didn't mean to purchase! It's always easy for me to fall into the mindset of, "oh, another necklace won't hurt, or lipstick, or nail polish." Then there I got picking colors galore! Although I only meant to go buy a maxi dress I had been eyeing for a week (really tested my patience) I ended up also getting a necklace with pearls, some hot pink nail polish for summer toes and a blush pink lip color. . . couldn't resist!

Life has been pretty good to me this month. Things are looking up, my new job is going great, Elias and I are doing better than ever, and my overall self is happy. Today was just a gorgeous rainy day, but with sunshine still and blue in the sky, how could anyone be mad? Things I've been thinking about lately that have been giving me the inner warmth I'm enjoying so much:

+ my new job & all the positive feedback I get from it {click here to check out the blog} I've never been so comfortable showing off my outfits (while being nervous what people might think), and giving advise about fashion. It's a comforting feeling receiving a bunch of likes on my "ootd's"

+ becoming more comfortable exposing my blog. At first I was a little shy telling people I have a blog, and showing them my deeper thoughts, photos (aside from the ones I post on Instagram which are filtered), and my life. Now I feel happy to give people a little insight on my life and people enjoy it.

+ getting sleep! With my new job, I somewhat create my own hours, so it's pretty fun and new to me. I now am able to get so much rest, it really make a difference on my mood! As much as I loved being a barista, sleep deprived Sarah was no fun :-(

+ Elias & I falling more in love everyday. Elias and I have been together for five years now, so it's normal for things to become routine or "same old", but somehow we always find a way to break free of that and fall in love all over again. There's days where we're just normal and together, then there's days where we get excited to see each other, butterfly feeling again, constant giggles, and non-stop smiling, it's always fun, and comforting to know after five years, we still got it going on, and are very happy with each other.

+ School. . . yes, school is going well for me, I'm actually ahead of my summer class, and am doing well, I'm finding it interesting, as well as stress free!

I can't thank God enough for bring light into my life after a very dark period this beginning of the year. I'm also thankful for you readers who view and read my posts I'm so happy y'all enjoy seeing what I post. Hope y'all continue having a wonderful week.

It's been three months since the passing of my brother, and to be honest, it still doesn't feel real when I truly think about it. It's hard to believe my brother is gone, actually gone, away from here, off this earth, nothing, no more. . . although he's with us in spirit, and our guardian angel, the morning of the accident is always fresh in my head, and any little thing can trigger it. I can remember every conversation I had with every person I talked to that day, exactly what I did, everything I said, thought, felt; it's incredible how vivid this memory is in my head. As much as the pain becomes easier to bear with as time goes on, little things bring back that day to my head & everything replays again as if it was happening:

1.) Sirens from an ambulance, police car, firetruck .. take me all back to when I woke up & heard them going to rescue my brother

2.) Ambulances' and how they tried to save my brother's life.

3.) Police lights, because that was the first thing I saw as I exited my neighborhood onto the crash site.

4.) waking up at 4 in the morning, because that's when it was about to happen.

As time goes on I'm sure I won't think about it as often as I do now, but I'm pretty positive these things listed above will forever be in my memory. Talking about it or thinking about it again and again help me go through it and become stronger as I do every time.

Some one of a kinds I've purchased today. I was really unsure of the aviators because my face doesn't really go well with "cop sunglasses" but these actually were flattering to me and I couldn't say no because they were only $9! So I guess I've fallen into the green aviator trend I wasn't quite sure of. The tank is so cute, and I'm lovin' the cut-out, very adorable. Life's been a little busy lately, and summer school everyday is kicking my buns, but as fast as it feels, I can't complain at how things are turning out.. always for the better, right? Here's the start to a new week!
