Obsessed with:

Alright... so I'm pretty sure I meant to post this in January, but that obviously didn't happen. Luckily I've still been using everything I was obsessed with in January, so here we go!
 
-Macaron book from Anthropologie-
I got this book for Christmas and I LOVE it! I have to say, everything I've tried to make as come out terrible, sadly. It's still cute too look at, though. Maybe one day I'll get it!

 
-LUSH-
Probably the BEST thing on this list! They sell handmade, organic bath and beauty products. The bath bombs are my absolute favorite, but I'm also a fan of the bubble bars. Go to LUSH right now!

 
 -New lip gloss-
It's obviously from Francesca's and it's great! I'm not obsessed with it, but it is a really great looking lip gloss!
 
 -The Bling Ring-
Ok, 90% sure I've posted about this before, but it's a great movie! What can I say!

-My ukulele!-
My friend, Alexandra (from China), can play tons of instruments, so I told her I'd get a ukulele and practice and we could play together when she gets back! I'm still working on moving my fingers around quickly and it still is a little out of tune, but I think I'm going pretty good! Right now I'm learning Skinny Love by Bon Iver.
 
 -Makeup removing wipes-
Old news and not really something to obsess over, but I've never been one to use makeup wipes and they're great! It's nice to have a clean face before you get in the shower or take a bath.

-Cleana & Clear cream cleanser-
Awesome stuff! I use it at the end of my shower and it cleans out your pores SO well! Your face feels so fresh and nice afterwards! It's definitely working and it's much better than the Noxzema one in my opinion.

-Garnier Fructis breakage helping conditioner-
Alright, alright. My hair is TERRIBLE. I have a confession to make... I haven't had a hair cut in 14 months. I'm going to get one soon, I have it all planned out, no worries! But while it's insanely broken, dry, and filled with split ends, I'm trying to keep it as healthy as I can. So I'm basically getting my hands on anything that says it 'repairs and protects'.

Bath time

Who else loves baths?! I probably take a bath about once a week, maybe once every 2 weeks. I want it to be something to get excited about and not a chore, you know? So I took a quick iPhone picture of my set up before I took my last bath...
 
 
I always have 2 candles, either a coffee or a glass of water, a book (in this picture I have The Earth, My Butt, and Other Big Round Things -- super good book!) or a magazine, my phone and headphones, bubbles, and the water looks a little green/yellow because of my Lush bath bomb -- they're the best. If you've never been to Lush, go there immediately!!
 
Do you take baths? What does your bath tub set up look like?

Today's my birthday! I'm legal! Tonight I'm getting Chipotle and opening gifts and that's about it. We went out for dinner on Friday and my grandparents came over on Saturday.
 
It's actually hard to believe! I'm honestly not the biggest fan of birthdays because I don't like growing up (ha!) but it's still fun to celebrate :)

Kate and Leo

"Leo was so tired. He has his head on my stomach and asked for a sandwich. The assistant asked, 'What do you want on it?' and Leo said, 'Oh, Kate will tell you.' And Leo just kind of fell asleep. And I did know exactly what he wanted, this cheese and no tomato and no pickle. I absolutely knew. And I thought, 'God, that's really weird that I know this person so well.' It was brilliant."
-Kate Winslet
 
This friendship is so incredibly perfect.

Proud self

I got my wisdom teeth out yesterday! I was so so scared and I'm so proud of myself for doing it. It was not bad at ALL and my mind is seriously blown that they did all that while I was sleeping. I fell asleep, they stitched me up, and I woke up in a different room. Insane! I'm honestly really terrified of surgery though, so kudos to me for not having a panic attack in the car! (I did have several anxiety attacks prior to yesterday though and had my mom reschedule the surgery multiple times before I worked up enough courage.) So all I really wanted to say here was, if I can do it you can do it! Yay, me! ;)
