Please bring proper apparel

We just finished seeing the beautiful cinque terre and I swear the boys could have killed me. I went to cinque terre about 6 years ago and absolutely loved it! It was the weirdest thing going back to the same places, my mind just started flooding with the most random memories... I actually remembered this one specific train track at one of the train stations because of a picture I took of it 6 years ago (obviously I recreated it hehe). Since I had been to this destination before and told the boys that there is a way to walk through all the towns (how I remembered going through it when I was 16) they decided to follow me.  Now for those of you reading this that do jnot know me, I am the most directionally challenged person, but I figured if I just follow the paths we'll be fine. I was wrong. We got to a booth and the lady informed us that flip flops are normally not allowed, but we can continue at our own risk. Me, being out of it and just in pure excitement from remembering everything, I took this information and kept going without thinking about what she meant. Turns out we were headed in the direction of the hiking path, not the walking path. Now keep in mind, we were just In Interlaken where we hiked literally only up hill for 2.5 hours and our bodies were still sore. Also keep in mind the fact that although we conquered Interlaken, it was probably 15 degrees hotter in Italy. 

So we walked and the first thing we were faced with was a wall of stairs... And I swear there was a million. We were about halfway up them when we ran into an English speaking group and asked them the one question you should never ask on a hike - how long until the top? Or in this case, until the next city. At this point we were informed that it is about a 2 hour hike... Fuck my life right? Good news was, they said that the stairs were the worst part. They were right. We conquered the stairs and the rest was fairly flat. An hour and a half later we were in the next town, covered in dirt and sweat and in awe of our view. Too bad all the looks we received on the way there were bad ones... But what can you expect when a hiker with walking sticks and mountain boots runs into a girl doing the same treck I'm a pair of flip flops and a dress haha. 

Safe to say we will not be doing that again, and the boys will never out me in charge of leading (thank god)

More to come my loves

Compilation

I'm sorry I have slacked in my posts lately. I have been swamped with my finals. I promise after the 12 there should be many posts since I will finally be able to whip out the old camera again! For now I shall post a few pictures from my phone that I've taken over the past few weeks that I've been MIA.

Homemade chicken noodle soup. I over cooked the noodles a little (they cooked super fast since they were egg noodles) but it still didn't taste all that bad :)

I have been going on a baking spree as my little stress reliever from my exams slash treat for my roommates. I really do pamper those girls ;) love em too much! This was all made from scratch. It is a vanilla cupcake with Nutella icing. 

My parents came down over the weekend to take me out for breakfast, buy me some groceries and drop off a few things for the house. So lovely to go out with them and such a treat to have some flowers from my Mom to brighten up my room. I am obsessed with flowers but can never fathom spending the money on them every month when they die so fast :( 

As we all know I have a slight obsession with online shopping. I just purchased these over the weekend from Aldo. They were so cheap I had to :s Originally $80 they were on sale for $30. They are perfect the christmas parties I'm going to over the break and am currently on a hunt for a cute dress to go with it ! If you have any ideas.. please let me know ;) Can't wait to wear these bad boys out

If you have yet to try this you must. Take 1 peppermint tea bag and 1 green tea bag and steep them for a minute or 2 (so they aren't too strong). It is the best combination of tea... so fresh and light!
