An ode to the Past (justification/attraversiamo)

But seriously. Let's cross over.

This one's for the girls!

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo I had my second attempt at the praxis II social studies content knowledge (missed it the first time by 1 point!) on Saturday so that is why I haven't written in about a week.  That test is impossible! I still don't know how I did but I do know that I don't feel super confident about it! I studied nonstop for a month so I really hope I pass, otherwise it may be a lost cause haha. Anywho, I got to go home afterwards to spend a short 24 hours in Northern VA for some family time.  Most of the  girls on my dad's side of the family went out to dinner to celebrate my cousin's upcoming wedding.  This has never happened in all of my 23 years.  We need to have more girl time!  There's something about being with a group of strong, amazing women.  Boys are great and all, but there is nothing like great girl talks.  I'm very lucky to have so many great women in my life, and this is only one side of the family! Here are some pictures of the Butler/Hempton girls throughout the years! Sorry to Nanny and Aunt Judy because I couldn't find any pictures of you online! Love you alll and thanks for so many memories and fun times!

72 days?! Really?

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I know I shouldn't be writing on this because the entire rest of the world is but I couldn't help myself. The Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries split rocked my world yesterday morning. My 20 year old brother was the first to tell me (cool right?) and I immediately went to my favorite celebrity blog Perezhilton.com to see if it was true since he is alwayssss right. Sure enough, there it was on his blog and Ryan Seacrest had confirmed it. This is so stupid that I'm writing about this but I was honestly disappointed. I'm the biggest romantic in the world and I honestly believed that it would last. I always have liked Kim too I just didn't understand why they rushed into it and why she was marrying a 26 year old Frankenstein who acted like a high school boy. Next time, if there ever is a next time (I'm sure there will be let's be serious) I hope she chooses more wisely and doesn't rush to get married. It's not all about a TV show Kim! Anyways, I really do wish both of them luck and I hope that there is love for them in the future. Until then, I can't wait to watch this drama unfold on the upcoming season of Kim and Khloe take New York! What do you think? Was her wedding a scam or was it real?

One last thing! I was busy yesterday so I didn't get to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! I love seeing the little kiddies in their cute costumes! Hope everyone had a spooky day!
