Good Things Come in Threes

30

May 24, 2013 by Katie

All good things come in threes, right? So today I’m sharing some things I like in threes!

Three Shows I’m Loving:

Ready For Love – it’s a kind of spin off on the bachelor and, shamefully, I’m obsessed…

Dawson’s Creek – I never really watched it when it first came out, but Kelsey and Lindsay are fans so I watched all six seasons on Neflix. I just finished this past weekend!..


Thursday Thoughts

39

May 23, 2013 by Katie

Hey everyone! I hope all of you are having a great week! Mine’s a little… overwhelming. But no need to bore you all with that! Today it’s time for another round of Thursday Thoughts!

1. I bought Powerball tickets on Saturday hoping for some graduation luck… Sadly I didn’t win. I think I won $2 with one but I haven’t actually taken it in anywhere to find out. I actually don’t know where I take it… the place I bought it? #lottonewbie…


One Word Wednesday

40

May 22, 2013 by Katie

Hey everyone! Thank you so much for all your congratulations and well wishes on my graduation this past weekend, I really appreciate them all! I was just not in the mood to photograph all my food this week (too much stress from being behind on Bar prep – you’re supposed to do a week of work beforehand, which I didn’t do because I had finals and graduation…) sooo, instead we’re going to do a One Word Wednesday!

So what is One Word Wednesday? In Lindsay’s words:

The only rule of “One Word Wednesday” is that you must label your pictures with one word. And it MUST be the first word that comes to mind (and yes, you can put two words together, hashtag-style if need be). If you can’t play by those rules, you probably should just sit this one out. Yeah. That’d probably be best…


Graduation Weekend.

29

May 21, 2013 by Katie

Hey everyone! Sooooo I. Am. Exhausted. What does this mean? 4:45am wake up + 4 hours of Bar prep + volunteering + Dr. apt = nice photo-filled recap post for you all of my graduation weekend. YAY! Yes, I’m slightly incoherent. I will be going to bed when I finish this up… at 8:45 pm.

Aaaaanyway, as I mentioned yesterday, I had a GREAT graduation weekend! It started out with the most amazing Last Bash party with my law school classmates (and many other people I did not recognize…).

I got to spend some quality time with some great people and the gummies were a total success…


I Did It!

76

May 20, 2013 by Katie

In the words of Elle Woods: “I DID IT!”

Graduations are always times in our lives that we get a little reflective: a chapter in our lives closes, people grow apart and our routine is turned upside down. Change is barreling towards us whether we like it or not and we’re forced back outside of our comfort zones, which we’d spent the past few years establishing.

Although I’ve spent the past week reflecting on the years that have past and anticipating the unknown that is ahead, this weekend was all about celebrating. Celebrating the end of a hard three years, our success for making it…


Share the Love & Summer Running

8

May 17, 2013 by Katie

have a bit of a random post for you all today. I wanted to share a bunch of links but I only accumulated a few and some of them are getting a little “behind the times” so I thought I should get them to you asap! I also made a great running playlist that I wanted to share with you all, perfect for the summer.

First, let’s start with the link up! I read too many blogs, so I think you all should benefit from that in some way. Here are my favorites from the past couple weeks:

Kelsey teaches us all how to take an amazing race photo, even if it involves blocking someone else’s face (*cough* mine *cough*)


Thursday Thoughts

HEY! Popping in real quick before I head to Starbucks to work on this final!

1. I forgot to post this picture back when I took it in March, but I figure it’s just as amusing now. This was on the news when I was in Kansas City. Not just on the news, but this was labeled BREAKING NEWS in Kansas City. Good job, KC, good job.


WIAW–Crazy Busy Day

66

May 15, 2013 by Katie

Hey everyone! I hope you’re all having a good week! Today at 4pm I pick up my take-home exam and I have 24 hours to complete it, so by 4pm tomorrow I am DONE with law school! YAY! Haha just have to survive the next day and a half and hopefully pass all my classes… fingers crossed!

Today’s WIAW post comes from Monday, a day where I had a chiropractor appointment and then I volunteered in the afternoon. I thought it would only take an hour so I had a snack instead of lunch before (didn’t have time to sit down to lunch) but it ended up taking 2.5 hours… haha so my food from Monday is a bit all over the place and snacky, but that’s what happens when you’re busy I guess!

If you’re new to What I Ate Wednesday, head on over to Peas and Crayons to find out what it’s all about and see the other participating bloggers!..


KLUTCH Club Box Review

26

May 14, 2013 by Katie

I mentioned this a while back, but I was contacted by KLUTCHclub to become and affiliate and review one of their boxes. I’d head a lot of things about them so I wanted to give it a try!

So what is KLUTCHClub?

KLUTCHclub is a health and wellness subscription box company where each month they send their members a box full of supplements, nutritional bars, healthy snacks, beverages, personal care products, fitness dvds, online memberships or fitness apparel and accessories that contribute to healthy lifestyle.

Each box guarantees at least $50 worth of value, but the box subscription is less than $18 a month. By joining “The Club” you become a member who can earn rewards with their KLUTCHbucks Loyalty Program, get exclusive brand promotions and discounts, and create an account so that they can build a better box around your wants and goals…

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend and a good mother’s day! I’ve been doing a little studying, a little relaxing and just trying not to get too overwhelmed! I’ve taken 3 finals so far and I have one 24-hour take home this week and a paper to write and then I’m DONE! AHHHHHHH. I can’t handle it. Alright, let’s get on to my weekly workout round up, shall we?

First let’s take a look at how I did last week:

Monday – Workout A + Cardio

Tuesday – Cardio intervals + Core workout
