The Summer White Dress.

I believe every woman should have a LBD (little black dress) in their wardrobe, but I also believe every woman should own a SWD (summer white dress) too. An effortless white, ivory, cream or eggshell dress is perfect for those hot summer days when you are on a Saturday stroll, a Sunday brunch or even just shopping around!

College Freshman Reflection

   

One of the most mind boggling concepts for me to truly understand is time. What exactly is time? Why do we have time? How many meanings and definitions does the word time have? Why does time go fast and go slow? the questions will continue to continue. I have always been concerned with time. Never feeling I have enough time, how fast time tends to fly by and trying to fit everything within a certain time period.

       This time last year, I was in a completely different position. I was a freshly released high school graduate anxiously and nervously awaiting the journey of college. Now a year later, I sit in my bed at home after surviving one year of college, wondering if I will be able to make it through the summer. 

      The freshman year experience is certainly one that I will never ever forget. This entire year was a time in my life which I discovered a multitude of things about myself, the world, friends, community, faith and life. It is crazy to think that in just ten months a wondrous of events and changes can occur. I entered college, much like many freshman do, as a very naive eighteen year old. Yes, I had my wits about the world, but I did not have my wits about everything and everyone I would be exposed to and the affect they would have on me. It would probably take me a very very long time to explain everything I went through throughout the course of my freshman year, but for the sake of your time, I will keep it short and sweet.
