I'm lucky, I know, but I wanna go home...

So even though I had to wake up disgustingly early this morning, I've been in a surprisingly good mood for basically no reason. So to continue my good mood, I'm gonna write a list of some small things that are making me really happy at the moment.
1. oversized tote bags - sounds weird but lately I've been loving them, especially today. I've never been one to have a lot of totes...i really only have handbags and then a bigger bag for school. But today I started to realize how much I appreciate them...I was packing up stuff to go home for a few days and didn't want to pack a big duffel or anything. I was able to stuff all of my clothes and things in a free tote bag I got from Victoria's Secret. So exciting! Usually I pack wayyy too much stuff so I feel like I truly accomplished something great today.
2. the fact that my dad is picking me up tonight - My dad NEVER complains about coming to pick me up for a weekend at home. But this weekend we're supposed to get like at least 2 feet of snow and I may get snowed in and he's still coming to get me and is driving me back on Monday morning. If I wasn't going home this weekend, I would probably become seriously depressed. I just need a break from school.
3. t-shirts from Target - BEST THINGS EVER! I never used to wear just plain t-shirts but lately I've been wearing this one black one to death. So when I was at Target I picked up a few more. Today I'm wearing a white one for the first time and it fits perfectly and it actually looks good on me! And it was only like 6 bucks! That makes it even better.
4. my sperry topsiders - I love my dark brown Sperry's...they're so practical and cute! But this week there's been snow on the ground and I've had to wear my rainboots all week (which is fine 'cause they're cute, but I'm getting tired of them). So today I braved the snowy streets of Richmond in my Sperry's. And my feet didn't get wet at all!
I guess it's true that the smallest things can make your day so much better. Now that I've listed the small things I'm loving at the moment, I have to go do something that I will always loathe: meet up to work on a group project. Group projects are assigned by teachers who want to torture you. I never get paired up with a good group and I always end up doing all the work. This time is no different. So off I go!
