tell me I'm your national anthem

summers in the air, and baby heaven’s in your eyes

What if?

I have this feeling like my current situation is not the end situation. Ive had this dreadful feeling like things wont work out and that was the case - they didn't. Other things happened that were much better. That’s how me and you will work out.

love should never hurt, but here’s how it will hurt you: when you give your first love your heart, they’re going to take it in their hands and drop it. and you will be feeling the impact of the fall for months on end. eventually, it will fade from a constant ache to a pain that flares up like when someone who had broken a bone in the past feels pain when it storms. and some days, it will feel like a the rain will never stop but other days, it won’t necessarily be sunny but overcast and, more importantly, dry.

today, it’s overcast. (cc, 2017)

FREE Shopping day at the Mall

guys, I have rewards to use!

Macys had clearance (last act) I got about $100 of items for reselling and got a $20 card to use

I went back and spent another $150 on things to keep, including new dresses and skirts, and 2 more “professional” looking blouses, plus a beaded dress to list for prom season. Got another $20 to use

VS sent me a $75 reward card for any purchase. My mom and I went to the outlet before christmas and spent about $600 all together. She got a ton of bras ($10)  and underwear, gifts, and the leggings ($15). I got new underwear ($2.99!) plus a bunch of $2.99 tanks and $10 lingerie for eBay. we got most of the points from there lol. i’ve been watching and have been hesitant about using it since i want to get the most bang for the money. i think free tanks and the $20 is the best it could get. this way i could list it all, plus something from the $20 card and make easily $100 or more. i’d rather have $100 in the bank than $75 worth of full priced clothes, since i get my VS and PINK at the outlets now. I buy it cheap enough that i can wear it and sell it used and still make a profit. if they don't have the cute tanks tomorrow then i’ll save the card or have them order online for me (free ship to the store)

i also have a $5 starbucks gift card which was completely free courtesy of bing rewards.

Chikfila had a cow calendar that came with a card for a free item every month. I think its a soda and expires tomorrow, so Ill probably give it to my boyfriend.

Wawa (a gas station in the northeast us) also has free coffee every friday in march, of any size, for members. 

so tomorrow is gonna be fire. I’ll try to pick up 2 more free people dresses in the macys clearance with the $40, so they’ll be mostly free. With the $75 at vs, i plan to buy 2 cropped leggings to get 2 free tanks. That puts my bill at $72, so i’m $3 short. Ill check the clearance for $4 panties or something around $10 to resell. Im hoping to get the difference to be no more than $10. hopefully it ends up having 2 leggings, 2 tanks, and a panty for free plus a $20 card. 

I have an ulta reward of $3 (haha) from when i picked up gifts my mom asked me to go and get after thanksgiving. they have a sale right now where ulta brand glosses/ lotions are $3, so it’d basically be free other than tax. its great to throw in my sister’s easter basket or even in my moms gift.

Plus I’ll have coffee, the bf will get a soda, and we can get a snack at starbucks with the card. the whole shopping trip will be pretty much free. the vs stuff will get listed on posh and eBay, and we will see about the macy’s stuff (if i find free people or things i really like ill keep but if not it'll get listed). I am so excited
