Hello all! I hope your week has treated you nicely so far. I’ve been pretty busy this past week, so that explains why my posting has been a little less often. Thanks to Amanda for creating this awesome link-up! Let’s get into my thoughts…
#Prayforbrussels Tuesday morning I awoke to such sad news, as did the rest of the world. There’s so much pain going on all around the world right now. My prayers and thoughts are with all the innocent victims of this horrid incident. My heart truly aches for all the loved ones of those who lost their lives.
Braces *I would include a picture, but I just went through over 900+ photos on my camera roll and have no photos of me smiling showing my braces. Oops!* On a much lighter note, I’m finally going to get my braces off in about 4 weeks!!! I am SO excited. Since I never show my teeth in pictures, you probably didn’t know I have braces (unless you’re closely related to me.) I’ve had them for over 2.5 years and am more than ready to get them off. I’m waiting for my retainer to come in and then I go in and get them taken off. I plan on writing a “Braces 101” blog post once I get them taken off. Hopefully, those of you who are considering getting braces will find that helpful.
PLL Finale In my last Thinking Out Loud I said I was a little confused with this season of PLL. I still kind of am, but think that this season got better as it progressed. How it ended recently was a huge shocker and has me already plotting theories for the next season. I really liked that in this season the characters are older. It was getting hard to believe they were in still high school when they looked to be in their mid 20’s. I’m really excited to see what the spring 2016 season holds. Just when I think that they have run out of a story line, they surprise me with a crazy plot twist. Who is Mrs. D’s twin???
Souvenirs My sweet aunt recently went to Paris and brought me back 2 lovely souvenirs. I got this adorable shirt, that is so comfy! And, I also got a snow globe with the Eiffel Tower in it. How cute?! These are gifts that I will always treasure ❤ Thank you, Auntie!!
Spring nails
Please excuse my horrible nail painting skills! 😉 Although yard work is probably my least favorite chore. I am pretty stoked for spring! I’m looking forward to reading outside, exploring the great outdoors and my birthday is in April 🙂 I had a busy weekend and then a ton of school work. So painting my nails hasn’t been on my “priority list,” but I love having pretty *non-chipped* nails. So, I treated myself to a at home manicure. Essie is one of my favorite nail polish brands 🙂 This color is called “Where’s my chauffeur?”
That’s all my thoughts for this week. It’s raining cats and dogs outside as I type up the remainder of this post. Oh well, March showers bring April flowers, right..? Something like that, ha! I hope you all have a great Easter weekend. Talk you in my next blog post ❤
Question time:
Have you ever had braces?
What’s one thing you love about springtime?
Thanks for reading,

You must be so exciting for putting off your braces! I am putting them in October, but thankfully only for 6 months 🙂 Lovely post!

Love the nail polish! I was the same way when I had braces… worst 2 1/2 years of my life! It’s a great feeling when they finally come off. Make sure you wear your retainer (unless they put a permanent one in for you!) Even though I did for the most part my front teeth have started to move back… 😦

Thanks for the advice. I was told I have to wear my retainer it 24/7 for at least the first year. Sorry to hear about your teeth moving back, that’s really unfortunate. Have a lovely day ❤

I love the colour of the nail polish. And you’re right about PLL, it was weird that they still went to High School even though they looked older than 20 haha. The globe with the Eiffel Tower is too cute, it makes me miss Paris. xx
