Book Talk: May Uppercase Box Review

This post was meant to go up on my actual birthday, which would have been perfect, because what better gift to myself than an Uppercase Box? It has officially been a year since I received my first Uppercase Box and I've gotten a lot of amazing bookish goodies that I never would have even thought of getting for myself! That sentiment definitely applies to this month's box, but don't just take my word for it! (I say as you proceed to read a blog post full of my words...)

#hairoftheweek: Four Strand Ponytail

Spring has finally arrived! Or is it time for summer already? My gauge for heat has no reference anymore. Either way, I'm ready to wear nothing but dresses for the rest of forever. In fact, I can think of a few dresses that would go great with this week's hairstyle...

#hairoftheweek: Snake Braid Headband

When I really need to focus on my schoolwork, I put on songs from my childhood. Sometimes that means ABBA, sometimes that means Michael Jackson. This time, it meant Bee Gees. I spent the week grooving to my favorite disco tunes while I figured out what kind of hairstyle I wanted to do. I also had an outfit planned involving my Celine Dion t-shirt. What better way to combine my two topical interests than with the song they did together? Immortality carried me through quite the week and provided my #hairoftheweek with a lovely caption.

#hairoftheweek: Half Up Mini Fishtail

We haven't been in May for long, but it has already been so generous. We've had a handful of bright and, more importantly, warm days, but that's not to say we haven't also had our share of rain. In fact, the day I wore this hairstyle, we went from borderline summer to massive thunderstorm. Lightning and all. It was quite the eventful day.

#hairoftheweek: Black Hole Bun

Am I going to pretend that this blog post is not eight days late? Yes. Time is but a social construct anyway. Is enjoying the summer preview we've been having recently good enough reason to postpone this post? Who knows how long the warmth and sunshine will last? Carpe diem! Considering how late this blog post already is, I shouldn't delay any longer. On to the hair!

Happy Hub: Mamma Mia!, Waitress, JMac, & (a little bit) More!

I am shocked. I don't think I have ever had such a sparse Happy Hub, but I also don't feel like this month was bad. I guess it goes to show how paying attention to the little things in life can make you just as happy as the big things.

#hairoftheweek: Belle's Provincial Ponytail

So often I save hairstyles for a rainy day and then when a rainy day comes, I feel like it isn't the absolute rainiest it could be, so I suffer through it and never end up using my savings. This time I recognized that I needed a quick fix and it was the perfect time to dip into my reserves. Ironically, this all happened on the sunniest day we've had in months. Go figure.
