Step Into My Week: 10/24 - 10/30

First of all, Happy Halloween! I hope you all have fun plans for the evening that consist of consuming lots of candy and watching at least one Halloween movie! 

As I mentioned last week, this past weekend was homecoming and is to date one of my favorite weekends at Furman. I had an absolute blast working on our float and participating in all the activities that revolved around homecoming. Our theme was UP and although we came in second in the homecoming week competition I couldn't get over how perfectly everything turned out! Along with out homecoming week partners, Pi Kappa Phi, we built an entire house and blew up enough balloons that a small child could have probably floated away if they grasped all of them at once!

Friday night we completed our float and enjoyed the homecoming carnival put on by organizations on campus. Think rides, carnival food, friends, and swing dancing. It doesn't get much better than that!

 

Saturday we woke up and were at it again enjoying tailgates, float admiring, and a bit of football. Unfortunately we lost (quite terribly actually, 45-0) but we had a lot of fun during the process so I guess that is ok. It was so fun seeing so many alums and their families wandering up and down the mall and reuniting with some of their college friends!

 

   

Saturday night we took it easy and watched a movie with some pizza we ordered. A great way to relax before another school week. All of Monday I could have sworn it was Tuesday making for a week that felt a bit longer than it should have. Fortunately though, last night Kappa Delta hosted our Shamrock Spaghetti Dinner and it was such a blast and we raised a bunch of money for our philanthropy and it was so nice to see our community support us with this endeavor. We have the 5k on Sunday and I am looking forward to being there and helping out our philanthropies!

  

 

 

And what better way to end the night than with s'mores?

Sorry for the picture overload but if you have made it this far I am super impressed!

I have been listening to Taylor Swift's new album non-stop since it came out and the more I listen to it the more I like it. It is really different than anything she has done before which is refreshing!

J.Crew Factory's New Arrivals are all so great and they are having a flash sale this weekend so be sure to check that out!

I recently got this dress and am definitely planning to live in it seeing as it is the most comfortable dress ever (and inexpensive too)!

Oh how I wish I were a kid again because I want everything from the Gap Kids + Kate Spade Collaboration. You can bet that if they still had the navy bow coat in an XL or XXL I would shamelessly be wearing it. Be sure to shop fast because lots of the styles have already sold out!
