Happy Monday! Over the weekend I journeyed back to Gainesville, FL...home of the University of Florida, the Gator Nation, and my beloved College town. This was the first time I had spent any real amount of time there since my graduation in the Spring of 2011. The nostalgia I felt was overwhelming. I strolled though UF''s beautiful ivy covered campus and reminisced about particular routes I would walk to class, living in my sorority house, and of course game day at our stadium the Swamp. It was truly a bittersweet experience... and I can't wait until I am officially a Florida resident again, and can make it back every weekend during football season.
One thing I did get the pleasure of remembering is how unbelievably hot it can be in Gainesville during August. I wore this emerald green crepe dress, and I was really happy I did. Its swingy shape and breathable fabric allowed me to remain cool enough to fully enjoy my afternoon of exploring. I hope everyone had a equally great weekend, and as always... thank you for reading.
