I am sorry I haven't been posting very frequently lately!! This week has been SO crazy with midterms and with the hunt for the perfect baby shambles! This new pledge class is so big and there are so many cool girls to date that my Lilly planner is literally FILLED with Starbucks and Faculty dates. I promise I'll get back into the daily posting groove again soon, but in the mean time enjoy some new music, courtesy of my new friend, Zoe!

The Office Pinterest Account
Everyone knows that Pinterest is probably the greatest time waster ever created.
And it just got a whole lot better...
The Office boards!
Looking at this just makes me so jealous of the lucky intern or PR person that got asked to work on this project. Seriously, this is what I should be doing with my life. The Andy Bernard board is definitely my favorite. This show is just too perfect!
Vacation Weekend
I hope everyone had a good weekend! I took a vacation from crazy Syracuse and caught the very last bus to Binghamton before Nemo hit on Friday. Luckily, central New York didn't get hit nearly as bad as back home in Boston and NYC did.
Tycho and I spent the weekend finishing The Office, eating the
ridiculously delicious food Binghamton University's dining hall has to
offer, and going enjoying the beautiful nature that I can't get in
Syracuse. It was just the taste of home that I needed!

Heavy Rotation
![]() |
My usual cozy ensemble. |
I am in a major outfit rut.
When I am home and working at my mom's store its a lot easier to motivate myself to put aside the yoga pants and don a real outfit on the daily. But back at school I am constantly alternating between my WunderUnders and my beloved "buttzips." I have two pairs of each and they are absolutely addictive in their comfort and versatility; I've convinced pretty much all of my friends to invest in a pair of the wonderful, amazing J.Crew Pixie Pant (better known in my circle as buttzips). Any sort of legging-pant paired with the coziest sweater I can get my hands on and a chambray shirt has basically been daily my uniform ever since the weather turned bitter around October.
Anyways, Emma was over last night and mentioned that she had never seen me wear the majority of the tops that pack my overstuffed closet. I have shirts on shirts on shirts that have barely even seen the light of day at Syracuse! It really is a shame, there are so many outfits just to waste.
She dared me to wear something today that wasn't leggings and a sweater--and I did!... only to spill an entire spoonful of strawberry Chobani on my shirt this morning in graphics. No one saw though! (I hope...). I'm not going to lie though, there was definitely a little voice in the back of my head that taunted, "this wouldn't have happened had you been wearing the 'buttzips.'" But I wiped it off and recovered, and today I've realized that actually getting dressed in the morning has some benefits. For example, I am way less likely to crawl back into bed in between classes if my clothing doesn't so closely resemble sleepwear and I actually feel a lot more alert during the day knowing that I am not wearing something that would be just as suitable to curl up and watch TV in on the weekends.

Crisp and professional for class! |
Here is today's outfit. A little better right?? At least I wore "real pants" for once (aka nothing legging-like or black). I am definitely going to try to make it a habit to branch out of my regular uniform a few more days a week.
But in case you still can't break your yoga-pant obsession here's a link to the J.Crew Factory version of the Pixie Pant. They're not exactly a butt-zip because the zipper is on the side, but other than that they are the exact same pant, and $28 cheaper! For those days when a cozy sweater and leggings just can't be replaced...the weekend calls!

Recruitment Weekend and Bid Day

Waiting for the baby Chis! |
Phi Sig is proud to have 63 new baby Chis! They're all so great and I cannot wait to get to know them better. I really loved being on the other side of recruitment and getting the chance to tell so many girls why Phi Sig is the best house on campus.
Spring semester last year feels like it was just days ago, it flew by so quickly with big/little, initiation, spring formal, and Cinco. It was literally the best semester EVER and I only hope that this Spring can come close to living up to it. I hope the Chis have just as much fun as I did.
For Bid Day on Sunday we all went to Wonderworks at Destiny USA. It was really cool--it reminded me a lot of the Boston Museum of Science. I really want to go back for the huge ropes course they have hanging over the rest of the mall. So weird that the new part of the mall has so many random attractions, but they all looked really cool and I would love to go back.
