Hot Chocolate...Yum

Today in the life,
The snow continues to fall in all its freezing glory. The fam and I took to Burlington's Coat Factory to replenish our seasonal gear for the coming winter. These low temps are no joke. Today was a high of 18 degrees and tomorrow a high of 10 degrees. Like what? 10 degrees is what I have to work with? Lol hence why we went shopping for coats, gloves and beanies galore.

After shopping we couldn't resist some hot cocoa from Starbucks :) Mmm the warm liquid flowing down my soar throat was the best thing ever! We went home and cooked some vegetable and beef stew. It was amazing and a perfect dinner for evenings like this. We watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with our kido and hung out the rest of the night while I wrote my report on oil extraction and completed most of my bioprocess engineering homework. Great day with the family today :) Hope you all had an awesome day too!

P.S. On behalf of it being Veteran's Day i have to say I have much respect to those who are serving for the USA currently and to those who have done so in the past.

New Black Pumps!

Hello! Hope your day is going amazing and if not, keep your head up and push forward!

Today in the life,
I took my sis to the mall to shop for a b-day gift and an outfit for a concert coming up. We scoured almost every clothing store searching for the perfect outfit. While we looked around I found the cutest black pumps that would be perfect for career day we are having at school.  So of course I had to purchase them.

*Side note: found the black pumps at Forever 21 for only $20*

In a few weeks, career day will be upon us. Approximately 300 engineering companies attend! It's massive and putting your best foot forward is a must. Everyone is in straight competition to get the job. So finding the perfect outfit, that not only presents you in a professional manner but also your style, is key. In my opinion you can see a lot about a person by what they wear.

Anyway, I was unable to find a good power suit, so I will have to go shopping again, but we were able to find all the peices to my sister's outfit for the concert so I'll take that as a win!
