School Supplies for Us Adults

I had such a bonehead moment last week. I was walking through the store, and it struck me that all the school supplies were out. Why are all the school supplies out?

Oh yeah… because it’s August.

Ergo, it’s back to school!

I’m sorry, when did it become August?

There’s a part of me that really misses school. I can remember being that nerdy kid who was excited for school to start in September. I would pack up my backpack with all my supplies, and know that I was going to fill my notebooks with all kinds of great information. I was always determined to make the honor roll, and be that much smarter than I was the year before.

Even though my formal schooling years are behind me, I still enjoy learning new things, as well as the work that I do in my job. And, what is more fun that going to work and getting to use super fun supplies?! I decided to round up some fun office supplies below for us adults.

Who said the kids get to have all the fun!?

Everyone needs a fun mug to have their morning coffee or tea in!

Love these rose gold scissors.

What makes meetings more than than using a fancy pen to take notes? I also like these!

I can always use another journal. And, my inner child loves this one!

You'll also want this super cute coffee cup planner clip!

I desperately need to replace my lunch box. I'm really considering this one.

Oh my goodness, this mouse pad is awesome!

If you're like me and you're always cold, check out this scarf and throw to help keep warm.

And, this cashmere wrap looks so lux!

Why Do People Do What They Do?

Last week, I attended a client meeting with several of my co-workers. During said meeting, one of my co-workers, and good friend, got up to get water for our guests from a mini fridge in a cabinet located in the meeting room. But, she wasn't really quiet or discrete about it, and proceeded to slam the cabinet doors, while our guests were speaking. Maybe it's because I've lived in an apartment for too long, and the sound of my neighbors slamming their doors and kitchen cabinets has become a big pet peeve of mine. But, to me, her actions seemed a little rude. It got me wondering... why do people do some of the things they do? After doing some Googling, it seems like there are many reasons for why people slam things like doors, cabinets, and toilet seats. Reasons range from anger, lack of awareness, laziness, selfishness, bad manners, and lack of consideration for others. I immediately did some self-reflection. While I'm pretty good about not...

Happy April Fools' Day!

I'm not a very creative person, and have never come up with something truly funny to do to my friends, family, or any roommates I've had over the years. Maybe one day I'll be able to put some of the ideas below to good use. Until then... these are just amusing.

Oh Lord

When I die, put my ashes in the trash bag I don't care where they go Don't waste your money on my gravestone I'm more concerned about my soul Everybody's gon' die Don't everybody live though Sometimes I look up to the sky And wonder do You see us down here?
