On Friday, my mom received the birthday package I sent her and she was so surprised by it. I put five little things in there and a TON of confetti - a little extra in the card that exploded when she opened it! I wrote on the back of each item a corny joke that went a long with what it was.
Here's the little package! It included a precious pair of Forever 21 earrings, an iron on Monogram 'H', eye shadow, foundation, a card, and a "birthday cake" you put in water that grows! Me and mama love Dollar Tree and whenever we find things that surprise us because they are in there, we get one for each other. In this case, it was the eye shadow! It's Physicians Formula and it would have been between $7-$10 dollars in a regular drug store, it was only $1 at Dollar Tree - the most magical place on earth!
I hope you have a FANTASTIC birthday tomorrow, mama! I wish I could be there to celebrate with you. I love you and I can't wait to be home in a few weeks for Easter!
Later that night I finally saw Frozen! It was so cute and I really hope there is a second one! I would've died if (spoiler alert) Olaf melted away in the end. I totally recommend this if you haven't watched it, yet!
On Saturday, I started the day out a little late by catching up on some much needed sleep (one of my favorite things to do!) Qwen, a friend of Kels and I, came to visit us at about 5 and we went to eat dinner at O'Charley's. If you haven't eaten there, or you have, and have never ordered the honey drizzled southern fried chicken - you are missing out! I get it every time and it never fails to be delicious! After we ate, we went and saw our friends Lilly and Elizabeth perform in their spring dance concert (mentioned in A lot to come!) They did amazing!

If you didn't get to see it, you missed out!

Great jobs girls!
After the show, Qwen, Kels, and I went to Amelie's bakery and got a quick snack before coming back to campus and watching Gravity. That movie is SO intense, but so good. If you haven't seen either of the two movies mentioned, this is the last weekend they are playing at the UNCC movie theater. I suggest going if you're a student. They are worth it!
Amelie's! A salted caramel brownie, a salted caramel macaroon, and a sparkling water lemonade! The lemonade is so tangy and yummy!
My phone likes to not focus correctly, but I took this picture of campus Saturday night
and it turned out pretty cool!
Today has been a pretty slow one. Robbie (Kels' boyfriend) and his friend Miles stopped by before heading back to NGU. We all went and ate at IHOP and it was scrumptious! The rest of the day will be dedicated to homework. BLAH.
Our trip to Lake Norman State Park is just under two weeks away and I am getting so excited about it. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and I hope your week goes by fast! Thanks for reading and have a great Monday tomorrow! Especially you, mama!
You are amazing and I love you ! And I'm a little jealous of your fabulous social life - start studying!!
