Friday Confessions

This post contains affiliate links.

ONE. I’m declaring today Selfie Monday. On a Friday. Because when you work in a hospital your days are all screwed up and today is technically my Monday. Weird, I know.

TWO. School is OUT for the summer!! I was kind of over the whole thing after spring break but whatever. It’s done and I don’t have to think about it again until August. Hallelujah and praise Jesus!!

THREE. After my last final yesterday I went to Mellow Mushroom to celebrate with one of my sorority sisters, Zayna. Zayna just moved to central Arkansas and I can’t wait to see more of her!!

I had never been to the Little Rock MM and she had never been at all and I have to say it was fantastic. There wasn’t a line, it wasn’t crowded, and the drinks were to kill for. I got Granny’s Apple Pie and it was simply amazing. It really tasted like apple pie and it had apple moonshine, grapefruit vodka, a cinnamon stick, and some other stuff in it. I will definitely be going back to get that bad boy again!

THREE. I am obsessed with Priceline Express Deals. I am in planning mode for my #BestieRoadTrip later this summer and I have found some amazing hotel deals with them. I also had to get on and talk to someone and they were super helpful!! So far I have gotten our hotels for DC and Philadelphia secured. I am waiting until my next payday to get Atlantic City and NYC. It’s hard to be fabulous on a budget. Sigh…

FOUR. I ran out of my day time moisturizer yesterday and had to swing by Walmart and find something quick and picked this up. I was using the pink version before but it was for super dry skin and so I grabbed this version to see if I liked it just as well. I used it this morning and love it so far.

    Bwahahaha. “Today is my Monday” is going down as one of my favorite quotes right beside “It’s five o’clock somewhere”.

    The fact that school is out is enough reason to celebrate. That drink looks mighty refreshing too.

    Congratulations on completing school. I miss summer vacations! The garnier gel moisturizer is in my arsenal too. I love that it’s not heavy and feels cool when applied.

    I use that green one – and you just reminded me I need to pick up more! I tried the pink one once, but it was too much moisture for my skin.
