. . . for Lauren and Lauren: Exhausted

August 22, 2012

Exhausted


top: h&m (years old - similar - $15)  skirt: old navy (similar)  bracelet: francesca's

You would think based off how tired I am that I have never worked a full day in my life. 
So all I have for you today is a total outfit copy.

Oh, Sydney from the daybook
If only I could have your perfect top bun too . . .


. . . and if I thought I could do well my first day of school wearing heels like that.

Overall, the first day of school was a success. 

While I'm sure I'll have a few challenges this year, I will currently revel in the fact that I heard 

"Wow. This is the best class ever."

and

"Mrs. Vale is the nicest teacher I've had so far." 

and say that we started the year off on a good foot! 

(I shouldn't even tell you that I had to look up how to spell revel, as I wrote reveal the first time.  
Good thing I only teach third grade.)

Happy day before Friday!

See? Now I look forward to the weekends again too.

Jessica said... Best Blogger TipsBest Blogger Templates

I remember that first day of school feeling and fatigue! It somehow makes me miss teaching a bit. I am excited to start my own classes and substitute teaching next week, because I love looking forward to the weekends too! Haha...all the days start to get muddled together in the summer, and there is something so fun about looking forward to and cherishing the weekends :-)
