Weekend reads

This is like Friday Favorites. But on Saturday.

And although it’s been busy around here lately (hence the silence around these parts), I managed to sneak in a little bit of time to find some links I loved this week!

Love this beautiful article written by Hannah Brencher.
How cute are these donut printables!

Super helpful article by Ali Edwards on tackling unfinished memory-keeping projects.

Happy Saturday! xx.

Note to self:

This past week, I found myself having to remind myself of this:

That, and the fact that I needed to stop stressing + worrying.

Strangely enough, I was unnecessarily stressing out over my to-do list, despite summer vacation and the lack of school work. I don’t know about you, but I think it’s funny how I so often hold myself so tightly to goals and deadlines that I forget that it’s okay if things don’t always go as planned, and I don’t accomplish as much as I’d hoped to.

The biggest thing I learned coming out of last week was the fact that I need to be flexible with my to-do list and just roll with whatever happens. This lesson is one of those that I’m constantly learning over and being reminded of often.

As always, I still have plenty of to-dos floating around in my head. But this week, I’m choosing not to let them get the better of me. I’ll take what I have and make them work, and be flexible with the rest.

I hope your weekend has been amazing.
And here’s to a relaxing and productive week ahead! (:

Thankful that it’s Friday.

Looking forward to the weekend.

Relieved that assignments are done. For now.

Needing to plan blog posts for this space.

Wishing I had more hours in a day.

Praying for strong and healthy bodies.

Having too many ideas floating around in my head.

Needing to write stuff down/make lists.

Hardly believing that January is almost over.

Remembering that He makes everything beautiful in His time.

Live every day with intention.

I hope your weekend is amazing!

Weekend-ness

9 January 2012

This is probably one of my all-time favorite ways to spend a weekend – chilling out at Starbucks with my notebook, a good read, and a mug of hot caramel macchiato. The BEST (:

Then I got to eat dinner at the yummy Hand Burger, and hang out with some of my favorite people.

I dare say this was a near-perfect weekend.
What a super day, really (:

PS. Kudos to the teams who looked really hard for me around the airport!
