HerCampus Blogger Network

Why hello there! Long time, no blog! Sorry but I have been fighting a killer little cold all week that is just bad enough that I spend all my free time in bed, but not so bad that I can skip classes. Luckily, I am finally feeling like I am on the mend and I will be back to blogging full-time tomorrow! I actually have several blog posts half-done for next week that I am pretty excited about. In the meantime though, I just wanted to share the amazing news that I got last night!

I was accepted to be a member of the HerCampus Blog Network!!! (the new button is in my sidebar). I have been reading HerCampus for a while and could not be more excited about this. I am so excited to join a network of like-minded college women and have a whole new set of blogs to be exposed to and network with.

As for HerCapmus in general, their nightly Study Break emails have some great articles and are a welcome break from long nights in the library.

Go check out the HerCampus site and sign up for the emails and check out your local chapter!

Well, it's off to the UVA v. Virginia Tech Basketball game for me...Go HOOOOOS

Sugar Snap Pearls Turns One

Happy Birthday to my blog! Today Sugar Snap Pearls turns ONE YEAR OLD!

Last year I decided that after years of following blogs, I would make one for myself. I started this blog as an escape from the troubles I was facing with transferring and feeling isolated. Looking back, I can see how much I have grown from that time and I know that this blog was a huge part of that. This blog has become such an amazing outlet for me, both creatively and emotionally, and every day I am so thankful that I decided to start writing it.

wrong cake, but you get the idea...

Thank you so much for reading my blog, and for your comments, emails, and texts. I blog because I enjoy it, but knowing that it brings joy to others makes this that much sweeter. I am so appreciative of your continued support and look forward to seeing what year two will bring!

P.S. I hope y'all had/are having as much success as I did shopping the Lilly Pulitzer New Year Cheer Sale!!! They have fixed all of those crashing problems and it was such a pleasant experience...can't wait to share what I scored!
