Naked 3 Palette and My Week

So I missed a day or two of blogmas, but I can't be too bummed because I was pretty sick and it just wasn't going to happen. I don't have the best pictures of the Naked 3 Palette (just the ones I took unpacking it). So I will include a few of the ones I took from unpacking it. When I am feeling better maybe I will post a few make-up looks using this palette. Needless to say, I am ecstatic I got it before it sold out because I am in love...

A picture I posted on my instagram right after I opened the package from Sephora. UPS brightened my day :) 

I will be sure to add better pictures, but these are the lighter colors of the palette... 

And the darker colors of the palette, blackheart is amazing!

And one of the many reasons why I haven't been able to post in the last two days is because I have been getting ready for finals and preparing for a presentation. We presented on our research over the semester to the Biology department/Chemistry department. 

What has everyone been up to this week? Was anybody just as impatient as me and get a hold of a Naked 3 Palette as well?

But I Don't Feel Like it....

Yuck.....

FINALS. They're starting. It is so hard to focus on getting cozy by the fireplace and having a fifth candy cane when finals are looming over me! I only have three since a few of my classes this Fall were quad classes so that is a plus! Only two of them really matter to me anyways, another plus! Today is pretty windy and cloudy, we had some sprinkling here and there (oh ya I know crazy weather...some intense sprinkling). It gets pretty crazy here in souther California ;). 

Tonight we have a work party to go to at Zack's boss's house. The lab members and mostly everyone that works with him will be there. I wish I was feeling more social! It is hard to get excited for a party when all I know I need to be doing is studying. So for now I am just studying and maybe later I will post what I wore to the party or my hair and make up! Whichever!

I already went into lab this morning to check my antibiotic plates, walked Oak, and got some laundry and cleaning done! Now I will just sit here and do some light reading ;)

Pages upon pages of cycles! Our bodies are pretty amazing!

What is everyone up to this Saturday afternoon?

Pumpkin Spice & Everything Nice

Finally! I can once again fake my Starbucks Pumpkin deliciousness at home! I love when the stores start bringing in the holiday goodies!

I absolutely love the pumpkin spice creamer, I don't always put creamer in my coffee...but it is nearly impossible to resist when the pumpkin spice creamer is just sitting in my fridge. When Zack and I went to do some grocery shopping this afternoon I just had to snatch it and put it in the cart!

Most days I do not have time for breakfast in the morning as I am rushing out the door for class (mostly due to the absurd lack of parking for commuter students), but I always manage to get some coffee in...now I know my mornings are gonna be twice as cozy!

Another thing I couldn't resist picking up at the store today...

I know, I know. It's bad. I am all about the Halloween candy right now! In all fairness though, I did only have those few pieces in my hand (pic I posted on instagram) until my body started screaming, "NO MORE SUGAR!" I just love having them in a little dish around the house when I decorate for Halloween, it makes it all the more festive!

On another note, all Zack and I have been doing today has been relaxing and studying. He has been working on studying Physical Chemistry and I have been working on studying my Biochemistry and Microbiology...I have tests coming up pretty soon.

Ahhh yes, just some light reading....

What are some ways you guys have been getting ready for Fall???? 

I have been getting a few emails about what people want to see me post, but feel free to comment down below and let me know, or leave the link to your blog below, I would love to check yours out! I check both my email and this page! 

Always love talking to you!

Our Day So Far...

So, I am back from my first class this morning and now catching up the blog and about to start some biochemistry and microbiology reading so I can head back to campus for lab later. For now I thought I would share what we are up to so far today...

So far I am back from class, sitting in bed and drinking a green smoothie and getting ready to study! Already so much to do and it's only the second day back :(

And I sneak-attacked Zack with a photo-op as he was working on his Physical Chemistry homework...

&

that's it so far today! 

Hope everyone is enjoying their day,
