MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Merry Christmas! 
What did you get?!
Actually, how did you celebrate Jesus' birthday?
I can't believe Christmas is 364 days away again! I really hoped for a white Christmas but there's still January and February.
For Christmas and Christmas Eve we went to Charleston. It's a historic place and when we first saw it, it just seemed old and dirty. But when we went downtown, they had so many goos stores like FOREVER21 and boutiques with TOMS!!! Oh my word, Forever21 was so big! My eyes had so many things to look at! I wanted everything... Some of the stuff i wanted weren't in my size tho:( and so I just got one sweater for $23 (kinda expensive) and three different colored rose earrings for $3 (so cheap!). I thought they would have more jewelry and I was going to buy $20 worth of it but there was only one section. My dad promised me Toms for Christmas and I tried so many on. They had the styles I like but not my size:( (I found out that I can wear 3s in youth and 5s in women; for some reason my youth 5 is bigger than an adult 5 but youths are cheaper. I think if you ever want to buy youths and you wear adults, buy 2 sizes smaller cus my mom wears 7s and she can fit into my youth 5) I didn't get any Toms anymore but it's okay. I got so many gifts already! I might still get them for my birthday or the summer but first I need to wear out my big ol' ones. 
One historic place we visited was a Yorktown aircraft carrier. It was so cool to be able to go to all the different sections in the battleship. They didn't even have "No Touching" signs so you could basically do anything. 
We stayed at Hampton Inn and it was really nice. So far I think it's one of the best hotels we've stayed at and we've stayed at a lot (it was pricey since it was right beside downtown and it's in a historic area). The dining room and lobby were really nice and Christmasy. Our room had a really nice restroom and the beds were so fluffy. 


This "statue" was actually a musician:)
my Christmas nail art:D
Overall this Christmas vacation was fun!

Christmas Break is Here!!!


Last time I posted it was Thanksgiving break; well, now it's Christmas break! I took my first ever cumulative exams this past week and praise the Lord for all His help! I stayed up so late on those nights studying:p Now I'm still up late haha... blogging and pinning instead. Today, to cast all my exam anxiety aside, my mom took me shopping! We bought bath&body works candles for $8 each, got my mom a present, she got me a present;) Yesterday, since today's exams were easy classes, I got to repaint my nails (I'll have to redo my Tiffany nails for you later)! I was kinda iffy about the black but I've seen so many girls wearing them and it feels very wintery. I added white polka dots to lighten it up- next time I'll be brave and try a solid black. (btw so srry about any hangnails or other nail grossness! I'm not a pro) I change my toenails too- tiffany blue with white lace detail:) I'm not posting a pic of them because it's hard to take "cute" pictures of toes haha. 
Chick-fil-a's peppermint chocolate chip milkshake is back!!
found this GIGANTIC SNICKERS bar at walmart!

On a serious note, I am continually praying for the Sandy Hook Elementary victims in Connecticut. It was really sad to hear about all those children and teachers. It's hard to take in but it was God's will. Just keep trusting in God!
