A Very Good Day Indeed.


So. Today was my second to last day of classes for this semester. Eek. I know this is an old person thing to say, but I just really don't know where the time went. I actually feel like the first class was a week ago. Somehow I managed to wrangle a pretty good exam schedule and it will all be over and done with in a little under a week and a half which means that I should have gone into full-on hibernation study mode... yesterday.
I think I can, I think I can.

My outfit details for today:
Dress: Flavour Boutique & Consignment
Cardigan: thrifted (kensie girl)
Belt: thrifted
Tights: American Apparel warehouse sale
socks: American Apparel
Boots: Macy's

Luckily, I had something to beat the end-of-semester blues. I got to see my favourite author, Chuck Palahniuk in a signing and reading event tonight! Eek. A nerdy event, to be sure, but an amazzzzing one. I've been to a couple readings of different authors before (because I'm a really big nerd) and they've all been perfectly lovely, but none have been quite as fun as tonight's event.
There was readings from his new stuff, short stories, and a general Q&A period. He has a great stage presence and was incredibly engaging and that just made it so so fun. And there were games! Games where the prizes were BOOKS. Be still, my ferociously beating nerd heart. Books for prizes is what the dreams of seven-year-old-me were made of. And come to it, the dreams of 22-year-old-me. Some things never change.

Here are some pictures of my fantastic evening:
And now, I'm hibernating. Come find me in two weeks time, after Ive emerged from the cocoon of looseleaf papers, dead pens and half-finished cups of tea.
