OH.MY.GOODNESS

Hello my lovely readers! I know, I know it has been absolutely FOREVER since I've blogged. I believe more than a month? My sincere apologies, school started and the teachers have just been piling on the homework like CRAAZY! Then on the weekends I have to study/review/chill with my friends/sleep, so I haven't had any time at all to blog : ( So today, while volunteering at one of our malls, I had an ingenious idea to create a blog post everyday (I promise I'll try) and it'll be like my day in picture! Wouldn't that be great? Or maybe I'll create a youtube channel where I'll post follow me around videos.....actually, I like the "my day in pictures" idea better. So, tomorrow's Sunday so I'll see if I can get a post up with pictures. Let me know if you guys want a post everyday or every couple of days!


THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR READING!!

XOXO,
Helen
