Life Lately Vol. 50

This week has been the longest week of my life. I don't know why, but it's dragged on and on... I'm so thankful it's coming to an end. My job as a referee has started back up, I have AP World History review sessions every day after school, teachers are stockpiling quizzes on me, and I'm having to schedule my classes for next year - and all of this has left me feeling exhausted.

All in all, it's been a great past few weeks, though. Between Spring Break travel, new restaurants, and lots of soccer, I really don't have that much to complain about!

All the trees and flowers in my neighborhood are blooming, which makes me so happy because it means it's the beginning of spring! The weather here has been so nice and I love just sitting outside with some lemonade and soaking in the sunshine. Also, I shot this picture in collaboration with American Eagle... so that's pretty cool :)

A Long Weekend In Durango, Colorado

Welcome to the weirdest, most spontaneous trip I've ever been on.

If you've been reading my most recent posts, you'll know that I spent the first half of spring break touring the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville. We got back from that trip on Wednesday night, and I was supposed to fly out to Denver that night with my dad and sister so we could go skiing at Breckenridge. Our flight got cancelled due to snowstorms, however, so we had to resort to plan B. I don't remember what plan B was (I think it involved us driving and leaving at 4 am on Thursday) but it failed. So did plans C, D, E, F, and G.

And then came along plan H.

Travel Guide To Fayetteville & Fort Smith | Where To Eat, Shop, & Explore in Arkansas

If you've been following me on Instagram, you'll know that I spent a few days last week in Arkansas, exploring Fayetteville and touring the University of Arkansas. I had so much fun and I discovered so many good places to eat, shop, and explore, so today I'm coming at you with a fun-filled travel guide to Fort Smith and Fayetteville. The drive from Dallas is pretty long, so we drove to Fort Smith the first day, spent the night there, drove up to Fayetteville and stayed for two nights, then spent another night in Fort Smith before heading back to Dallas. Our trip was jam-packed with so many fun adventures, and I can't wait to share them with you!

Fort Smith Coffee Co // This place!!! The coffee is so good, but I really love their pastries (my mom and I split a delicious chocolate chip scone) and they also have the cutest atmosphere.

Currently Vol. 20

Coming at you LIVE from Durango, Colorado!! I mentioned last week that I was spending the second half of Spring Break skiing in Colorado. I was supposed to go to Keystone, but our flight to Denver got cancelled and it was looking like we weren't going, until the airline told us we could switch our flight to another airport... so we did a 180 and are now in Durango. It's been a crazy turn of events, but I'm excited to be skiing for the first time in two years.

1. I'm so glad it's Spring Break! I'm going to tour the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, and it's going to be so much fun!

2. Once I come back from Arkansas, I'm going to turn right around and hop on a plane to Colorado to go skiing. It's going to be perfect ski weather!
