Spring Break In Review

Stepping off the plane in Baltimore was near torture. After spending a week in sunny SoCal, I was so not ready for near-freezing temperatures. I mean, it's Spring - why is it this cold? Haha, that's enough complaining for now. It was great to spend a week in Cali. I went to a concert, went shopping, hung out with my friends, and did some baking. It wasn't a very productive break and it wasn't your typical college spring break, but at least it was fun and relaxing. 

To start off the break, I went to a Bleachers concert with Holly (and my parents). It was so much fun; we are definitely #Bleachercreatures. The Night Terrors of 1927 and Joywave were the opening acts. Night Terrors was alright, but you should stop reading this for a quick second and go listen to Joywave. We are definitely Joywave converts. Though, I do think that they might be better live than they are on their recordings. I mean, the lead singer is a total geek and they were wearing matching shoes - it was great. And obviously, the Bleachers were great. It was my third time seeing them, and I finally got to touch Jack Antanoff!

The lead singer of Joywave!!

Let's see. On Tuesday, Holly and I went to Old Towne Orange (cute, hipster-y neighborhood) to grab lunch. We had pretty good burgers and then followed that up with cupcakes from the Perfect Circle Cupcakery. Gotta love cupcakes :)

The Princess Vanilla cupcake :)

On Wednesday and Thursday, I mainly just relaxed. I babysat for a family I've known for awhile and baked some slutty brownies. They were so good - you should look up the recipe. On Friday, Holly and I grabbed lunch at Bruxie's in Old Towne Orange. I mean, who doesn't love waffles? After that my mom and I went shopping and got some great deals at Kohls - so many sales! (I forgot to mention, we also went to the mall on Monday for some spring shopping.) And then, on Saturday, I did a photo shoot with Holly and my friends Melynda and Michelle. Unfortunately it was then time to hop on a plane back to Baltimore.

The things I miss most about home (besides the people) are Rubio's, bratwurst, my bed, and my car so hopefully my week long fix of those things will carry me through finals. Only 6 more weeks of freshman year!
