Wow, what a day. What a weekend...WHAT A SUMMER

So in true fashion of a Sooner/Jayhawk hybrid named ME I closed off my summer committing a major shopping spree in KC. After a long hold up I finally made it out to what I consider my 2nd home in Kansas, Overland Park. (My first Kansas home is Lawrence of course...and well, Topeka just does NOT count!) My first stop was one of my favorite stores in the universe, ULTA. For anyone who has never heard of ULTA nor been there, it is amazing. The store has perfumes for women and cologne for men, a salon, finer hair care, nail polishes, makeups, etc. However it also sells their own brand of ULTA makeup, along with drug store brands such as Revlon and Covergirl, etc. ULTA carries almost any haircare brand, styling tools, brushes, mirrors...basically ANYTHING and EVERYTHING for a feminine female such as myself!!! I have loved this store since I first drove past it in 2003 in Oklahoma and screamed my little heart out when I discovered one in Kansas City. Being in there makes me very homesick and miss all of my shopping trips I make with my mother to ULTA!
After ULTA I went to Oak Park Mall. As sad as it is, I made it in and out of Coach without buying anything although I really wanted a new scarf :( I met up with a good friend; we had lunch and she took me to a sweet spot in Nordstrom's that I had never been before! I scored a sweet tank top on sale. Forever 21 and Mrs. Fields were also destinations. Unfortunately my cell phone died early in the trip so I feel technology-less. After the hour and a half drive back home, I realized that I had no food in the fridge. Max and I are about to indulge in an amazing pizza...delivered of course.
It's been an amazing, and sometimes stressful summer. I am so glad I was able to cut the strings in my life that were keeping me from moving forward. After those strings were removed, I was able to find complete happiness.I hope that this school year is everything it I've dreamed it to be. I have had an entire summer to enjoy my time and strengthen bonds...For all of you reading this who are about to begin yet another semester of college...Good Luck, Focus, Study Hard :)
