Long Time No See

So, I've been M.I.A. for a whileeee now. Ha, school is stressful. But it's Spring Break now, so I have all the time in the world to get the blog back up to date. So because I've been gone for so long, I'm gonna do "Spring: Top Items", "Delish Kicks", "D.I.Y", and "Spring Designer Report". I hopefully will be done with that by later today. If I'm not done with all that good stuff, I'll finish it up tomorrow. I'm really excited to be back into the blog!
