I bought some black pants from MJRSales.com, which is closed now. I shed some tears, but ultimately, you just have to let the things you love go, and if they come back, it's meant to be....Okay I kid, but they did close the web site which is awesome because I would get all sweaty and itchy when I saw something I wanted and the urge to yell CHARGGGEEE IITTT would creep up like a clingy ex-boyfriend...I digress...
I bought these pants in a size that was too big for me, and since it was the second time I ordered them (the first time I got them four sizes too small), I decided to take them to my favorite seamstress. I have mentioned her here before. I call her Mom, and she basically works for free. All I have to do is give out some kisses and bake some goodies, which I do anyway.
She took in the inside seam of the pants and eureka!! They are fixed!! The first picture really does not show exactly how hideous and unflattering they looked on me, but I assure you they were extremely tight on the ankles and loose everywhere else. Weird.
On another more serious note, as this semester draws to a close, I am really starting to hyperventilate. I generally put silly little things on here because my original intention with the blog was to use it as a means to dress better or ummm...reduce the ratio of sweat pants to normal clothes I used in the week (reduce not eliminate..I am a student after all), but I think I may actually include some more personal information every once in a while.
I have to apply to graduate school. I feel like a giant is sitting on my chest. Please, won't someone take me...I have to make a decision that will affect the rest of my life, including the relationships I have with those that I love. I am freaking out. Also, I am a really shy person. People like to describe themselves as shy very liberally, but I get anxiety attacks just walking in front of a classroom. As a result, I doubt professors know my name, even if I do have good grades, so for the next two weeks, I will be visiting professors in their office hours attempting to establish some sort of relationship so I can get letters of recommendation. HOW DID I LET THIS HAPPEN?!? Thank God it's the weekend already....time to set up a plan of action. I may have to bake a lot of cakes next week for uh, bribing and stuff.
Anyway, have a great weekend everyone!
