Weekend Rundown

Monday, October 24, 2011

Friday I packed my bags and drove to Seattle for some much needed quality time with my brother. We spent the weekend shopping, eating good food and enjoying each others' company. It was so great that I didn't have to work, it is rare that I ever get a weekend off. Busy season has just begun in the restaurant biz.

Are a few pictures from my weekend

Oh.. and watch this video. When I heard the music playing I ran down the street because I thought it was going to be a flash mob. #Iwanttobeinone

Instead I found this man playing the violin. Kind of hot, right? He's got some swag.



What did you do this weekend? Give me your rundown!



A Year Of Sabrina

Friday, October 21, 2011

This year has brought so many amazing things! It's funny to look back at some of the posts from a year ago this time and realize how much my blog has grown from then! I really can't thank you guys enough for all of your support and loyalty! Big time blog love!

Here's a look at a year ago:

I didn't blog on my birthday last year so this post was really the start of my new found love for blogging/ vlogging.

According to the google machine, people love this outfit.

Now some pictures of my year!
To start it off, I was Snooky for Halloween. Classic.

Hello! If this is your first time on my blog, please don't be frieghtened. I do embarrassing things ALL the time. This is probably low on the embarrassing scale, comparatively.



Obviously, I have white girl swagger. Ohh I just look like a drunk white girl. Either way, I definitely broke a sweat.

I hope this video made you laugh.. whether it was at me or with me! You should send me your party rock dances and I'll edit them together! oooo HOT DAMN! I think I just came up with the next Dream Team Theme!!

We are DANCING in our next video ladies!!

P.s. There is one more shopping day until my birthday :) 

Ginger Cat

Wednesday, October 19, 2011

First things first. How cute is this squirrel? Secondly.... Look at that dude reading a book with a cat next to him!

I actually only wanted a picture of that, but didn't want to be a dick, so the squirrel was a cop out/ bonus. 
Murphy was the cat's name, in case you were wondering. Murphy the ginger.

Now you can look at pictures of me being shameless in a public park.

As Far as witty banter goes, that's all you get. which is a carried-over version from yesterdays' drunken rambling. Maybe I need to drink and blog more often?

Do you drink? Do you blog?
Do you Blunk? Bloging while Drunk.
Do tell. 


Long weekend

Tuesday, October 18, 2011

Monday was Founder's Day at Gonzaga. And I celebrated in the most appropriate way:
 by drinking an entire bottle of wine and making pasta. #FattyPatty

Here are a few pictures from the events of the weekend. And by a few... I mean a shit ton. 
And if you're wondering why I'm swearing so much.... see the second sentence.

*Raven would be proud!!

I ran to a beautiful park. I ate healthy food. Then I had a martini with Bacon.... well I had a sip. it wasn't awesome, unfortunately.

Spokane has the most beautiful Autumns, by the way... I dare you to send me a more beautiful picture :)

Then I worked and met up with some friends at a martini bar.

The Sapphire Lounge. I just don't think I will ever go back. Which is unfortunate. The ambiance, great. The drinks, great. The TIME. Holy you-know-what. We waited *no joke* nineteen minutes for the mixologist to create 1 drink. That's just not practical. When I want a drink I want it now. Patience just isn't my strong suit. (Although that's what my name means in Arabic.)

Because I was so impatient we headed to the next nearest bar. Baby Bar.
It's tiny and awesome and Ben was drunk and turned into a photographer. It was fantastic.

I promise we weren't in the Red Light District, although it was just as dirrrty. hmmm
Gotta Love Spokane.

And your weekend? Tell me.

Any Spokane/ Washington Readers?

Today is Madness. The good kind.

I'm over here at Mackey Madness today! I was so honored when she asked me to guest post in her "These Three Things"Series!

So go on and read my post over there. And then read Megan's whole blog... I know you won't be able to help it!

Oh, And just in case you were wondering... This is what I look like right now.

You can blame midterms.

I wish I always looked like this:

But let's face it. I wake up looking like a freakin monster.

By mid morning I have magically transformed into a clothed and caffeinated girl with a sense of humor and who speaks in words instead of grunts. 

I'm telling you it's like a freakin fairy tale. 

To finish this fable, my prince takes me away to blogland where he proceeds to read my favorite blogs to me while giving me a backrub and a foot massage at the same time. Yeah my prince has 10 arms, be jealous.  
I write my own story, a-thank you. 


And this was the weekend

This is what my weekend looked like. I had Sunday off which is SO rare! I was going to go to that Zee Avi show, but instead Brooke and I decided to get Shellac'd! It was pretty fun. We were in need of some TLC and that is exactly what we got. (Everything but the Red Light Special)
Please tell me you remember that song!

Have you ever heard of Shellac? It's supposed to last 2-3 weeks and doesn't chip! The salon we went to didn't have that many colors.. but I'm pretty happy with the deep red (I guess I'll have to be for at least 2 weeks!)

Now it's back to real life.. although all of my monday classes got cancelled!! 3 day weekend! I know, be jealous. Kidding of course. I have a LOT of things to do. It makes my head spin. 

What did you do this weekend? Oh PS... I ordered some business cards from Posh Girl Boutique on Etsy. I LOVE them!

Happy Friday Loves!

I am looking forward to a quiet weekend at home putting some major hours in with some web design and trying to get my name out there for photography! Wish me luck!

Sunday I will be seeing this beauty of a voice


Just something sweet to send you into the weekend! See you Monday!


Oh Memories

Thursday, October 6, 2011

I love capturing memories. Let me tell you why.

First of all I have the worst memory in the world. It's a fact, I think I'm in the Guinness Book. My memory works for random facts, movie lines and song lyrics. That's about it. So pictures/ video really bring me joy in the sense they remind me of what actually happened. Case in point: I forgot ALLL about this conversation!


*Yeah we got some dirty looks from his "big sister"


Secondly I love looking back and remembering how dorky me and my friends were/are. That will never get old.


Rissy- We dropped it like it was hot for YOU!


And lastly, I love seeing joy and happiness in others! It's such a great feeling when you look at a person, a couple or a group of people and know in that moment they are truly experiencing happiness. Maybe that happiness fades but that picture is a constant reminder. I love it. I do I do.

I'm off to send out a package to my dear friend and bride to be, Elise!

Oh! And if you follow me on Twitter you probably saw this video yesterday. I hope I can make more videos of all of the amazing blogger meet ups that are bound to happen! Yes, Raven, I am talking to you!

(Shirt- Gap, Necklace-Nordstrom, Jeans, ring- F21, Shoes- Sam Edelman, Jacket- L.A.M.B.)

Sometimes a girl just wants to feel gangtsa. And today was one of those days. As Autumn quickly creeps in, it is becoming more and more necessary to grab a jacket on my way out the door. Usually I don't put much thought into it as I grab my hoodie or a casual blazer. But today. Today. I felt like being gangsta. So yeah, I busted out my L.A.M.B. bomber jacket and rocked it with my new heels. 

Oh... and want to know one of my secrets when I'm out on photo shoots? I always have a theme song to go along with my outfits. Not just the outfit, but the whole moooood I'm trying to port
ray. I learned it on America's Next Top Model, so it must be cool.

*Theme Song- Booty Wurk- T-Pain
This will always remind me of Shay and Erica. Miss you!
