Expectation

Is it so wrong to have expectations?

A lot of people have been telling me lately that I just shouldn't have them anymore. On one hand I understand that because I shouldn't set myself up, and keep getting let down, but on the other if someone meant that much to me and I to them (supposedly), shouldn't expectations be allowed? Shouldn't you expect them to be there for you and do nice things for you and to love you? Shouldn't you hope that they're going to keep their promises? Especially when you love them regardless of their faults.

Obviously I know that some people aren't going to do these things because of selfishness or other reasons, but I don't think that you should give up on your expectations. It's kind of like settling.

However, I feel like William had it right...expectation can cause a great deal of heartache. Unfortunately I know this firsthand. I'm sure most people do. But I'm not going to give up on expecting to be treated well. I may not always act like it or feel like it, but I know I deserve it. I just hope that one day I find someone that is going to fulfill those expectations. Let's be honest, they're not that big. I'm a pretty simple girl when it comes to love.

Hunter Rainboots

Since today is rainy, rainboots are on my mind.

These are definitely on my wishlist. I like the dark green and navy the best. But I secretly kind of like the red too!

I think they're so cute!
Reason #1 for wanting Hunters:Keira Knightley Reason #2 for wanting Hunters: Marissa Miller
They can apparently be worn anywhere, or in the spring or winter or fall! Just so cute.

Spring Fashion

So I thought maybe my trip to New York would satisfy my shopping needs for a while, but no...it just made me want so many more things! There are so many cute styles out there right now! I just have more to add on to Piperlime's list now!

Blazers
I bought one in New York, but now I just want all kinds of colors! I am obsessed with this one from J.Crew.

Leather Jackets
I saw this in the Madewell Store in Soho and I'm in love with it. May have to save up a bit, but I think I will probably have to have this even though it's going to get warm. It's beautiful.

Gold Necklaces
I've always loved Gold Necklaces, I probably wear one everyday, but I love the unique styles I've been finding lately. I just got a knotted sailor style at Madewell also...but I love these two. I kind of really like the ones with writing lately too.

White Denim
I think white jeans are so cute this year. I haven't tried any on yet, so I don't know how it will look on me, but I'm hoping it's cute cuz I'm loving it.

I'm back!

I love New York!

I'm pretty sure that I want to move to NYC forever. I'm pretty sure I'm made for this city. I love walking all over the place. I love all the people. I love the hustle and bustle. I love the shopping and the fashion. The only thing I would miss is trees. But I could go to Central Park.

Ah I just had the best weekend ever! I'm so sad to be home already, but at the same time I guess I was ready at the same time. It's always nice to be back in your own bed. I had so much fun though.

GREAT NEWS!

I contacted Amber (for those of you who haven't read much of my posts, she offered me an internship with her wedding/event planning company) asking her how things are going. She told me she found a location, and that shes planning on signing the contract THIS WEEK! Oh.my.gosh! When I read this I got so happy again! So basically what this means and what she said is that the other new intern and I will be able to start within the NEXT WEEK OR TWO! :D ..so she she said she will keep me posted.
Tell me what you think! -- & please follow this blog.. thanks :)
