never ever ever!


Things I'll never ever ever do... hmm :)

Understand why textbooks are so expensive. I went to buy my books for class today. $550?! Are you kidding me? I'm already paying thousands to attend school itself, I don't need to spend another thousand a year on textbooks. And then when you try to sell them back after the semester they barely give you any money back. It's insane!


Forget my summer in Europe. It was truly unforgettable. I still think about it every day and wish I was back. But maybe that's just because I miss my handsome man so much! :) You can read about my trip here.

Take my life for granted. I have been blessed with so much. I go to a good school, I have great friends, and I have the perfect boyfriend! [You can read our love story here.] It's so easy to get caught up and complain about the small, unimportant things. I try to remember every day just how blessed I am and how lucky I am to have such amazing people in my life.


Forget the distance. Right now my handsome man and I are in a long distance relationship. It makes our relationship so much stronger, and it makes us appreciate each other so much more. Once were together every single day [hopefully in a year and a half :)] one thing I promised myself I'll never do is forget these hard times. I'll never forget the ache I feel in my heart when I miss him, or being SO excited just to Skype him, and the feeling when we're finally reunited. I never want to forget these things that right now are so hard to get through because it's really been a blessing in disguise. We don't take each other for granted, and keeping these things in mind, we never will.

    1. Seriously! Yes! I rented about half of my books this time which saved me about 15 dollars per book...and it was still over 500 dollars! Crazy!

  2. I agree about the text books! I can't believe how much they are! I actually worked in a text book factory for a few years and they would buy the books I needed!
