This week started with the day of loooooooove – Valentines Day (:
Mon 02.14
This year Hunter (my boyfriend of 5 years) and I decided to skip the gifts and use today as a day of love and quality time together! I have no classes on Monday’s, Hunter has a 9:00am – 9:50am. While Hunter went to class I got ready for the day – which included wearing my favorite pair of pink pants. After his class and we got around for the day we headed to the store. We decided that I was in charge of the first half of the day and he was in charge of the second. At the store we picked up all the goodies to make the meals we chose for our half of the day. He also cheated on the “no gifts” aspect and bought me tulips because they’re my favorite, he’s a sweetheart. For my half of the day I thought nothing would be cuter than a charcuterie brunch, Valentine’s day style. My brunch included waffles, heart-shaped strawberries, yummy toppings, eggs, and sausage. We also decided to add smoothies to the mix and drink our coffee out of the heart mugs he got me for Valentine’s day last year. We then enjoyed our brunch in the living room, relaxing and watching a movie together. We then of course put Nova’s Valentine’s day bandana on her and took cute pictures. For Hunter’s part of the day he chose to make a steak dinner with asparagus and caesar salad. He let the steak marinate all day before cooking dinner. We then spent the evening cooking and making fun wine drinks. Then had to finish the day making chocolate covered strawberries and watching a romantic comedy. The food today was amaaaazzziiinnggg and the company was even better, it was definitely the best love day yet!
Tues 02.15
I have three in-person classes and three online classes this semester – I’m a junior at Ball State University. The three in-person classes are back to back every week on Tuesday + Thursday from 9:30am – 1:45pm. My third class of the day cancelled our class so I got to leave campus at 12:15pm. After class I created graphics for my sororities Instagram story to celebrate some of our sisters who got awarded for Ball state’s Top 100! I then hung out around my house for the day, ate a quick dinner, and then had to get ready for my sororities weekly chapter meeting. Our chapter meetings are normally on Sunday’s, but this week it was on Tuesday because of the Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day. My friend Sarah came to pick me up so we could go to chapter together, it was Valentine’s Day themed and it was also partially bid day for our 3 new spring members!
Wed 02.16
While in my college town, I work at a local coffee shop! I love coffee, and becoming a barista a little over a year ago has been one of the most fun jobs I’ve had. Today, I worked a shift until close – I love getting to make new drink creations and seeing all of the fun additions my boss adds to the shop each week. My favorite drink to make while working is a brown sugar and vanilla cold brew with oat milk – trust me it’s the best combination EVER. After work Hunter and I took Nova on a walk around campus. She loves exploring and loves the snow, so she loved walking to new snowy places around campus. Later for dinner Hunter and I went on a double date with my bestie Julia and her boyfriend Keegan! (Julia and Keegan are actually engaged, I’m Julia’s Maid of Honor and tonight before dinner Keegan asked Hunter to be a groomsmen, super exciting!!) We went out to eat at Fuji, it was lots of fun. Julia and I are roommates, after dinner Hunter and Keegan both came back and we all watched reality tv together. (Fun fact: we chose to watch Temptation Island because a couple that recently graduated from Ball State will be in the new season next month).
Thurs 02.17
Today was a loooot of relaxation. I have three in-person classes on Thursday’s but my last two were cancelled! I dedicated today to cleaning my room, repainting my nails, and watching my favorite YouTube videos. I hung out and made dinner with Hunter this afternoon.
Fri 02.18
Hunter and I tested out making a crockpot pot roast today – which ended up being soo good. I’ve had eyelash extensions for a couple weeks and today I went to get a fill. The amazing lash boutique I go to, I also work with! I recently started running their social media platforms in exchange for lash extensions. So far it has been so much fun – I’m majoring in advertising and public relations so social media advertising is right up my alley. I then ran some errands throughout the day. That evening after Hunter and I ate dinner we went out for drinks with some friends. We went to a local brewery which was so much fun! A few people from our hometown also came to town, so Hunter, a few of our friends, and I all stopped by the bars to see them! It was such a nice evening of being out and about catching up with friends.
Sat 02.19
I worked on creating content today for my Instagram, along with content for the lash boutique I work with! I worked on some homework and some cleaning around the house. Hunter and I took Nova for another snowy walk which included her eating snow, slipping on ice, and running around trees. We then ended the evening going to a pajama themed party that Hunter’s fraternity hosted.
Sun 02.20
Sunday was all about relaxation before the next school week! I slept in and got lots of puppy cuddles from Nova. Hunter and I then went to brunch at Sunshine Cafe, a local breakfast cafe. I then went home and checked off some todo’s and worked on homework! I ended the night watching Euphoria with my roomies and typing up this post. (:
