Right now I feel like my life is a little bit crazy. The end of the school year is not a fun time and this year I know it is going to be wretched. I am not being pessimistic, just realistic. I decided to get through the rest of the year I needed to make a countdown of days, maybe even have a paper chain. I really miss paper chains! Elementary school, and last year were the best!
So here is my life according to the numbers
26 - The number of school days left this year
27 - The number of days until I treat myself with a massage
17 - The number of students in my one class. I actually think I will miss those crazies!
0 - The number of days until my half birthday! Woop happy half birthday to me
30 - The age I will be in 6 months
1 - The number of times I was almost arrested for a crime I did not commit. (another post for another day).
8 - The number of months Penny has graced the earth with her presence
3 - The number of days since my peanut butter cookie binge
2 - The number of tickets I want so I can see the Ducks destroy the Kings in the second round of playoffs.
25 - The number of dollars you can win to Starbucks from today's wonderful sponsor!
I am so excited to introduce you to the lovely Noelle from Sunshine and Pearls.
Let me have Noelle tell you a little about her self and her blog!
Life gets crazy so I write. This whole blog experience has been a wonderful way to meet new women that inspire me on a daily basis. I write about all the craziness of a typical 25-year-old trying to make it. My quarter life crisis, wedding drama and the crazy addiction to online shop are my normal posts. Come on over to Sunshine and Pearls and have a laugh with me!!
Some of my favorite posts from Noelle are the time she relived her terrible date with a man who talked to her with a crab puppet. I also love this super sweet post that her fiancé wrote about proposing to her at a beautiful winery. I think my favorite is this post is this one where she writes about the beauty of being yourself and not stressing about everything else that goes into it.
Because Noelle is such a gem she is giving away $25 to Starbucks. So make sure you follow her and enter for your chance to get your coffee on!
