"I think I'll go to Law school today!"

76

If you've ever met me, whether it be knowing me for two minutes or 21 years, you automatically know that I am absolutely 100 million percent the least spontaneous person ever to walk the earth.

It's actually true. I have to plan out everything. If something ever happened to my Lily planner, I honestly think I'd forget my name, where I live, how to spot Cathedral... yeah I'd be a hot mess basically.

So this morning, I felt like the ever amazing Elle Woods from Legally Blonde. Waking up and doing something spontaneous, like go to law school!

Granted, I didn't up and change my entire life path in one morning, but to me it was a big enough to document! 



I cut my hair!
I'm pretty proud of myself for just up and doing something I've been wanting to do for a long (like literally since September) longggg time. 
I still like how you can see some pink at the bottom too! 
But being quick to make a decision put me in an AMAZING mood. I felt lighter, happier, and freer, not to be tacky. 
You're probably wondering why I'm wearing all this fancyness. Sit tight, I'll get to that later!

After my little spontaneous fling, I ran into Lauren! And of course, since she was headed to Dunkin, I absolutely HAD to change my course around (again, second time today, look at me go!) and grab a dozen nom-nuts for my roommates. Since it was Valentine's Day and all, I just wanted to show them they're lovedddddd and blah blah blahhhh. 



Haha no but really. My roommates are awesome.

Also, I just had to try a bite of those heart-shaped cookie dough-filled donuts. 

So now it was time to do a little house cleaning, homework, and organizing (again, planning stuff out) before heading downtown to pick up Mavis from the bus stop. 

And literally out of nowhere, a HUGE snowstorm started! Like right as I was about to leave!!!
Talk about more spontaneity. It was so fine all day and then Pittsburgh had to just be like "nope" and plop a big white-out in my face. You could not even see Towers from our window - and that's like a block away.

So I prepared myself with two pairs of pants, two scarves, earmuffs, three sweaters, and an extra set of gloves and hat for my friend.

After basically being dragged over to the bus stop by the wind, we got to catch up after her trip away on an awesome New York Fashion Week experience. 

Now here's where the dress comes in: Tonight was the annual Black and White ball held at the gorgeous Carnegie Music Hall. 

So of course, Fredrika, Mavis and I got all dressy and headed out together for a little Galentine's Day celebration. 

Winged eyeliner? Check. Red lip? Check. Wearing sweatpants in heels outside in zero degrees? Unfortunately, check.

I had such a fun time at the dance though! We found this group of single ladies and literally just sang a bunch of throwbacks with them in a giant circle beside all the couples. 

I'll miss dances like this next year. But this was definitely a good way to leave off on a good note.

Keep on dancin' babes!
