awkward + awesome.

Awkward
When I try to do an 'outfit post' and forget to do my hair or put on jewelry.



I bought these shorts yesterday and just LOVE them. TJ Maxx rocks my socks shorts.
Also: this shirt....is a dress. I may have stolen it from my sister. Thanks, Phoebe! ;)
And the shoes (holymolyIlovethem) are from Mama. Thanks, Mama! I couldn't seem to get a good close-up of them, dangit.
How I still kind of sort of maybe still want an iPhone, even after laughing out loud at this.
When guys on eHarmony black out everyone else's face in a group photo...with marker. Learn to crop, weirdo.
After successfully avoiding it for months, driving into a concrete divider in my driveway. I can still drive my car, but it looks SO awful. Poor Prius :(
How I this could actually happen to me (I am the guy in this instance).

Awesome

Dress rehearsal tonight with some amazing students!
Raising over $500 for my students and their families, all because of you guys. It really is extraordinary.
 I'm splitting the $ four ways, so every little bit helps. If you can donate any amount at all ($1!), it's really appreciated. [click the donate button the the top of the sidebar] 
 New blogs to read.
My family. Hi, family!
Acting like kids all day long. Mary Beth, Max and I played with a big box, formerly housing a fan. We made a little project out of it, too, so once we get it edited, I'll share!
 A breeze on a 86 degree day (and that's inside my apartment)
Having a whole day to do whatever my heart desired (yesterday), which turned out to be reading the entirely of Mockingjay. 
The Hunger Games series.
Skyping with this girl. So funny.
Using Death Cab for Cutie for my ballet classes.


P.S.
If you can't donate (I completely understand), I would really appreciate if you could help spread the word! Here's the link to my story if needed.

I think you need to move the outfit posts into the awesome category. There are plenty of people who are more awkward about it than you (myself included). P.S. How freaking cute is your outfit? I want it.
