Happy Halloween! Here's to all treats and no tricks!

I was so excited about my first Halloween at college. One problem. It's raining outside. Good thing we have a great rec room in my dorm. Maybe we'll "trick or treat" inside. We're not too old for trick or treating, right?

Anyway, I found the cutest "ringmaster" costume. Kind of like the one that Britney Spears wore on the cover of her album.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy halloween. Remember, have fun - but not too much fun!

Things I'm Currently Obsessed With!

College is a lot of hard work and it's a big adjustment from high school. I just finished my mid-terms. Here are a few things that I am loving right now. Came home for the weekend and had my mom take me to Target to stock up on my current passions, which include:

Swiss Ice Sweet Tea - OMG - this stuff is amazing. They sell it in the store on campus, but it's about half the price at Target.

Bear Naked Granola - There are several flavors but I like the original. Can't have my yogurt in the mornings without it.

Kraft Easy Mac - Yup - a must have in any decent dorm room.

Snyder's Pretzels - love 'em. Ultimate brain food.

MAC Disney Venomous Villains Collection

As you know, I'm in college now, so I don't have a chance to do much shopping. I'm just at school - day and night. Which is a good thing. And aside from the fact that there's little time to hit the mall, there's also little money (cuz I'm a starving student - LOL).

But, I did come home this weekend. My mom "bribed" me by telling me that the MAC Store has a new Disney collection. I want the entire collection!! The colors, the packaging - amazing!

I did manage to score a lip color - and oh, there's this new Mascara from Mac that's like 2-in-one - got that too!

Who would have thought that Cruella de Ville could look so good?

It's Getting Hot In Here - Thank God for My Dorm Fridge!

It's not even noon and it's already nearly 100 degrees. That's outside. Forget the temperature in my room which is near boiling.

I'm so happy that my Dad convinced me to get this particular refrigerator. After much comparision shopping, we settled on the this Emerson fridge with the freezer compartment. Can't wait to give you the "full dorm tour," but for now, take my word for it, there's nothing better for keeping your Coke Zero cold!!!

Back to School with Juice Beauty (TM)

It's kind of hard to switch from summer mode to back to the books mode. One thing that's at the top of my list of must-have school supplies is this Juice Beauty Blemish Clearing Serum (TM).

I swear this is like having a "genie in a bottle." I'm so prone to breakout and have tried everything you can imagine over the years. This is the first thing that has actually worked. It's a major confidence booster and with starting a new school and meeting new people, I need all the confidence I can get!

This organic solution is seriously off the charts.
