spring?

This is how I feel about spring right now. It's like I can almost see it but it's not quite here yet. I need it to hurry up. I want to wear shorts and dresses!

springtime lemonade

I had a photography assignment due today. The assignment was to take a photo in the style of the person I interviewed for my midterm. I interviewed Joy the Baker, so I had to take a photo in her style. I had bought a bunch of lemons with an idea in my head about a week ago and this was the perfect opportunity to use them. I also ended up making some amazing lemonade with them! It was super simple and seriously probably the best lemonade I've ever had.




This last photo here I may be entering into the student art show at my college. What do you guys think?

Lemonade

for simple syrup:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water

1 cup lemon juice
4 cups cold water
sliced lemons for garnish

Bring 1 cup sugar and 1 cup water to boil to make simple syrup. Combine lemon juice and simple syrup in pitcher. Add 4 cups of cold water and stir. 

You can add slices of lemons to the pitcher or individual cups for garnish. Also, this recipe can easily be doubled or tripled.

I'm hoping that if I keep doing more spring like things that I can hurry up mother nature and spring will get here sooner. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

iphone photos

Since I got my iPhone about a month ago I have taken quite a few pictures with it. I have 4 different camera apps! It's crazy! I have used all of them quite frequently but I think my favorite is instagram. I seem to use it the most. 

Here are some photos that I've snapped in the past month.

Long time no see...

or chat! Sorry that I've been missing lately. We finally got all moved into our new house! OUR house! We own it! Sorry, that's still really exciting for me. I hate that I've been neglecting the blog so much but with moving and school I have been the busiest person ever! I have midterms the next couple of weeks and then after that 2 research papers due! So, looks like I'll be gone again for a while. After this semester though, I am not sure where my education process is going to go. I only have 1 semester left for my scholarship then after that I'll be paying for school myself. I have been so blessed with being able to go to school for this long for free but I can't figure out what I'm even doing going to school. I love to learn but I have no clue what I want to do. I would like to work but not at a regular type of job. I would honestly love to do something with makeup, photography or food. Those 3 options sound easy enough but they really aren't. I would love to go to cosmetology school for makeup and I'd love to take some more photography classes to learn more about that too. I do also love the thought of doing hair. As much as I can't do my own hair I think it would be really awesome to be able to do other people's hair. I don't know. At this point in my life I am just trying to figure it all out. Luckily, I have an amazing husband who is supporting me the entire way. Never once has he told me I need to get a job or tried to make me get one. He really is amazing. I couldn't ask for a better husband and and best friend. 

In lighter news, I finally got an iPhone which means...MORE PICTURES!!! I have downloaded the hipstamatic app and the instagram app. Both of which I love so far! So, now that it will be easier to snap quick pictures on the go be ready for a ton more pictures from me!
