This weekend, I received my Bachelor's Degree in History. It was such an amazing time of celebrations, tons of friends and family, and good cheer. I ate great food, drank yummy drinks, and watched my Grizz beat OKC in OT! What what!
One of the best parts of the weekend? Well... besides getting my diploma, I GOT A NEW CAMERA!I had been using a Fujifilm little dinky dinky camera, but my sisters (I have the best sisters ever, have i mentioned that?) went in together and bought me a Canon Powershot! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!I can't wait to learn how to take it off AUTO, and learn how to work it in manual and go crazy!These pictures already look SO much better. And I finally have a camera that can take numerous shots in a row! Hallelujah!
Now on to the most important part of this post... that DRESS, I mean, HELLO!
This is my second ASOS dress and it was chosen for this specific occasion. I love it, the print, the shape... it's a little short-ish on me, but with flats it's totally summer approved! Two HUGE paws up from this tiger.
And (below) as you can obviously tell I'm still working out some kinks in the timing of the new camera:
Thanks SO much to everyone who voiced concerned for me and my family upon hearing of the flooding in Memphis. It means SO much to me. Fortunately, we live in one of the highest points in the city and are safe from the raging Mississippi, but there are areas in downtown Memphis and Arkansas that are flooding and my heart goes out to those who have to evacuate their homes.
Thanks again for thinking of me, little chickens. I hope you all had the most wonderful weekend and to all of my mother lovers out there... you rock, and belated mother's day wishes to you and your moms, too!
Congrats my dear how awesome! I am so proud of you ;) and congrats on the dress and new camera

Congrats on your Bachelors degree!!! I am currently working on my Masters and hope to have a similar experience in 4 months!!
ReplyDeleteThat dress is super cute btw, I just love the hemline and the print! Looks really pretty on you!!!
Congrats also on the camera. First thing I noticed was the quality of your pictures, even before I read the text. Though you still cut your feet in half of those posts ;) Your shoes need an extra post, they start feeling neglected!!
