My Christmas Miracle

Christmas is the time of year when we come together, sit around the tree, exchange gifts and gorge on Christmas cookies. Christmas is also the time of year when we count our blessings and pray for miracles. Amidst the endless presents, countless cookies and blizzard of 2010, I can say my Christmas miracle is Jessica. I’ve posted about her before, and I wanted to share with you her progress. Please read her story here.

Hope For Jessica

Wishing you a Happy New Year!

XO,
Ashley

These are a few of my favorite things...

With the Holiday season in full swing, I thought I would share a few of my favorite things...


Topping the list this year is the Nikon Coolpix S8100. I absolutely LOVE taking pictures...and who wouldn't want to take pictures with this adorable little camera?! *Cough* Christmas Gift *Cough*

I LOVE my Michele watch and I LOVE Orange, so when I spotted this new band I had to add it to the list.

After seeing these NARS polishes online, I can't help but want to add them to my growing collection.

Chloe: No description needed.

A little bling from J.Crew never hurt anyone...

And WORLD PEACE...

New Beginnings

After years of terrible commuting, "drunk trains" and paying for over priced monthly passes, I made the move.

For everyone who hasn't come to visit me and my roommate Meg, here are some photos of our new place. The view from the 27th floor is magic.

I'm absolutely loving...

My Vince sweater...

There is something perfect about a sweater you can dress up with boots and jeans, or dress down with leggings and flats.

"Back To December"

I was concerned when T played her big “eff you” Kanye song at this year’s VMA’s. I was worried that her entire album would be a Waahhh (snookie inspired obvi) playlist. I was getting a little tired of the wounded act.

Check out her new song, “Back To December”. It’s the first time she apologizes to a boy…cough*Taylor Lautner*cough…

What do you think??

I LOVE IT.

"It's really scary to be a little person and not know how to get home"

Amazing weekend. Amazing quotes. Amazing people...

"Do you mind if I got get a 5 hour energy...don't judge me, I love that shit" -BL out on Friday night. She's definitely one of my fav. people in the world

"I was mad at dad because it was Christmas Eve, I was stuck in a maze with no presents and he went to bed"- My mom in reference to her dream from this weekend

"S.O.S...Bro spotted at Tiernangtjuriedoclvkjghytruoepwsd..S.O.S"- KMC...the Bro from last weekend was spotted at the bar...awkward, let's hope he doesn't ask for his fleece back

...and the title is in reference to another one of my mothers amazing dreams this weekend.

Status: Bro-tacular.

I've met plenty of bro's in my time. LI is filled with Woodstick Classics, fierce sailing rivalries and enough douchey behavior to shock even the most experienced bro-spotter. However, if you want to find a bro in their natural element, CT is where you need to be.

My encounter with this "Bro-tastic"( his words, not mine) male was Saturday night. He wore a backwards baseball hat, half-zip fleece and boat shoes. His hair peaked out from behind his ears, and by the looks of it, was permanently wind blow from all the time he must spend sailing or flying down the ski-slopes. This bro was quite special. Let's call him J.

J appeared a min after last call. Perfect timing bro! We're already drunk, so you've saved yourself some money by not having to buy us drinks.

J introduces himself, says something "bro-mantic" and manages to find his way into our cab. J is attractive in a waspy way. We later find out he's from CT and has a second home in MA. He played Lax in HS, has two siblings and works for his dad's company where he buys energy. How Bro-fessional!

He was like a living mylifeisbro.com

Ladies, if you find yourself amongst a bro, savor the moment. Don't question his vocabulary, choice of branded t-shirt or his desire to drink cheap beer. It's way more enjoyable to make fun of him...chances are, he's too self-involved to realize you're doing it.

What I learned in Boston...

I can no longer drink an entire bottle on Andre…there's definitely a reason it’s only $5

Apple picking in 90 degree weather is unacceptable. If you can’t wear plaid, you shouldn't go.

Apple Cider donuts always taste better when consumed in quantities of 6 or more.

If you plan on drinking on the T…bring enough to share.

Waiting online for 45 min at a bar is stupid…never do it…EVER!

Pictures always get better as the night goes on.

Choose a different Safe Word…putting up the “GO STAGS” deters hot boys from talking to you.

Making pasta at 3 a.m. should be done frequently.

Singing at the top of your lungs to Lady Gaga while driving through the ghetto is encouraged…except if you’re driving through Mattapan.

Making videos on a MacBook at 1 a.m. is always a good idea.

Ming Lau (Carol)

Boys who go by the name of “BUZZ” and clap after every sentence...should be avoided at all times.

Always carry band-aids.

I will always love my friends from college. SOOOO good to see you TKH, VJ, CM, RA, MT and KM!

XOXO

3. Cardigans---DUH!
