Happy (almost) Summer!

I can't believe that it's Memorial Day weekend already! Considering that it's my last weekend in Boston (seriously terrifying) my plans involve a LOT of packing, a little shopping, and enjoying the gorgeous weather that we're supposed to have these next couple days. Tonight I'm going to see Sex and the City 2 with my best friend C which I'm SO excited for! I hope you all have a fabulous weekend...anyone have any fun plans?

What I'm Obsessed With Right Now

Since most of my tv shows have ended for the summer (except Glee) and True Blood doesn't start for another couple weeks I thought I'd share a band that I'm totally obsessed with right now. Have any of you all heard of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros? They are a fairly new band, and are mainly known for touring the country in a giant school bus. I don't remember where I first heard them, but after I heard "Home" I was immediately hooked. I just googled them to find out more about them (I didn't really) but did see that they're going on a tour this summer which would be really fun to see. I do admit that some of their music is kinda weird and could definitely be described as a little "hippie" but I absolutely love it and also think that it's perfect for summer. So without further ado here are my three favorite songs:

What music are you all loving right now?

Goodbye Lost


After 6 long years of watching and wondering what exactly was going on with this show, I can't believe that LOST is finally over. I started watching about halfway through the first season (my sophomore year in High School) with a couple girlfriends simply because we were in love with both Jack and Sawyer (still are.) Over the years as the show got more complicated most of my friends eventually stopped watching but my friend G and I stuck with it and would always get together to watch the season finale after we were both done with school for the year. Although I had to watch the last episode by myself this year (G hasn't graduated yet) it was still amazing and I really can't believe how quickly these past 6 years have flown by!

I'm sure there are a ton of mixed feelings but I for one absolutely loved it. I cried MANY times throughout the episode (mainly the last scene with Jack and Vincent, and when both Sawyer/Juliet and Jack/Kate reunited) but thought it was a very sweet and uplifting ending. I also LOVED the Lost themed Target commercials and the "alternate" endings on Jimmy Kimmel So I guess I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to Lost for providing 6 great years of entertainment! I know that there are a ton of theories out there so what did you all think?

Away We Go



Happy Friday! I'm off once again to one of my favorite places in the world...Vermont. I know I've written about my love for Vermont before but it really is my favorite vacation spot ever and I would love to have a house there someday. So I'll be away from my computer this weekend but back again on Sunday. And speaking of Sunday, I absolutely cannot WAIT for the Lost finale...I'm definitely making sure that I get back in time so I don't miss a minute of it! I hope you all have a fantastic weekend...anyone have any big plans?

The craziness has finally ended

Well after an exciting, overwhelming, sad, and basically just amazing two weeks, the craziness that is the end of senior year has finally ended. Finals week came and went (and I got my final grades back on Thursday which means that I have passed everything and officially graduated) and graduation weekend was an absolute blast. On the Friday of graduation weekend my housemates and I hosted a party for our friends and family, and then Saturday was the big commencement for everyone and the small ceremony for the Arts and Sciences college. The actual ceremonies were such a blur but one thing I do remember is that it was COLD! The big ceremony outside was so painful to sit through that the President ended it early which was welcomed! Sunday was filled with packing up the house and then my dad, friends, and I went out for one last dinner.

Driving away from the place where I spent the best four years of my life was really one of the hardest things ever, but as much as I miss everything about college, I really am excited to move and start my new job. On Monday my dad and I started the drive back to Boston, but stopped in Cleveland to find my new apartment. After a LOT of searching I found it and I can't wait to post pictures of it when I move in. My dad and I got back last Tuesday and then on Thursday, a couple friends and I went to Florida this past weekend for one last getaway. This weekend was SO much fun and I can't wait to post pictures as soon as I upload them! I got home yesterday, so today I'm basically just relaxing and catching up on tv that I missed while I was away. I also really need to actually unpack from school, so that I can start repacking to move again. So once again these next couple weeks are going to be crazy again but I think that I can finally start keeping up with blogging, and I'm excited to get back to reading all of yours. I think that's going to be it for today but I also wanted to say a huge CONGRATS to all of the other (college, high school, grad school etc) graduates out there!
