I also relaxed listening to some Christmas music (Justin Bieber-GUILTY!) and making Holiday cards for our coaching staff. I also put the final touches on my secret santa gift for my team's holiday party. Look how cute!

Presents and Pampering
After a long, hard week I spent this evening getting some much needed relaxation time. I went to the nail salon with my friend Rachel to try out Shellac, the new UV gel polish everyone has been raving about. As a swimmer, my manicures usually last two practices at most (one day) so this is a desperate attempt. After much indecision, I chose a simple nude color to keep it professional for my holiday internship meetings at home.

Hello blogging!
Hey yall! My name is Lauren. I'm a 21 year old business marketing and management student just trying to figure out my path through college and into the real world. I don’t intend to have many followers (hello, is anyone out there?). BUT in the event I stay serious about this thing, I’d like yall to get to know a little more about me.
College is a time of immense change in a young woman’s life. Since my freshman year I have grown and changed so much. While trying to figure out exactly who I want to be, I feel it’s important to remember where I am at right now. Carpe Diem! I created this blog to document my journey to serious adult-hood (will that ever really happen?!).
I value family and friends. I firmly believe that with that foundation, nothing can shake you. The key right now is learning to balance those relationships with my job (swimming), school work, and a little me time! Although I spend a majority of my time in athletic clothes, I have always had a true love for fashion. I also love all things crafty- from jewelry to furniture. I plan to post some of my favorite DIYs and projects.
So here we go on my ABC's!
