I am ferociously typing this post out so that I can get it up before an unreasonable time tonight. I’ve started training and between moving out of my apartment and into the dorm, I am exhausted. And, I totally forgot to write this blog post because I haven’t touched my planner in a week. So, what’s the roast?

I’ve learned so much in the past few days and I can’t wait to start my last responsibility here at Carolina. I also need to mail out my grad announcements and thank you notes. So much to do and so little time!! Anyway, it’s time for me to catch you up on the last few weeks because they’ve been jam-packed with so many fun things.

What’s The Roast: Life

So, the last time I caught up with y’all was right before I met up with Abigail from Living the Gray Life aka my hype [wo]man. We agreed to meet up in Charlotte one weekend to drink coffee, chat, and take pictures, of course.

Meeting bloggers in real life is so weird; it feels like you’re just meeting a friend for the day that you’ve known for years. BUT, you’re actually meeting for the first time. For most people in my life, that would be so weird. For me, it’s a typical summer Saturday.

The lesson learned from our weekend in Charlotte: clouds are our saviors and “Abby & Gabby” have great shoes. Abigail, you are such a wonderful spirit and it was so nice to meet ya in person! Come to NYC soon plz.

Here are some of the pictures that we took; the magic carpet on the Rail Trail was such a fun photo spot. It would have been extra perfect at golden hour!

What’s the Roast: Current Loves

Entertainment

I’m currently not engaging in any entertainment outside of Youtube which includes binge watching NYC vlogs. My favorite ones to watch right now are from Antonnette and Michelle & Aline. I’m on season 5 of Sex and the City [catch a theme here] and I’ve had Post Malone’s album on repeat.

My favorites on The Bachelorette are Blake, Garrett, Jason, and Wills. I need this two-on-one to happen between Jordan and David like yesterday. Who are you rooting for/are you watching this season? The guys are actually making it interesting and seem like genuine dudes for the most part.

Style & Beauty

I’ve been keeping these routines pretty much standard. The Mario Badescu Spray is a lifesaver after a long sweaty walk in this summer humidity.

Also, my star necklace from Old Navy has been around my neck for days. For some reason, it’s not available online, but they have the cutest clover one that is absolutely adorable. It’s such a simple style and isn’t too overpowering to wear with my casual work attire. My summer style has basically been alternating skirts, shorts, and distressed jeans with lightweight tees and Birkenstocks and calling it a day. You can check out my favorite graphic tees in this post.

Health & Fitness

My goals for the next two weeks for Health & Fitness are:

• • Work out 3-5 times with at least 2 of the days focusing on weight training.
  • Track all food in My Fitness Pal.
  • Wear my Fitbit as much as possible.
  • Eat all food between the hours of 11:30-7:30.

What’s the Roast: From My Lens

So, BIG NEWS. I’m working on the new photography website that I’ll be unveiling in the next couple of weeks. It’ll be hosted on a platform that has more affordable e-commerce options because your girl is finally selling her presets. I had a few setbacks earlier in the month from outside forces and doubt about people actually wanting to purchase them.

But, there was an overwhelming response to my Instagram stories over on my personal account {@gabbywhiten}. I’m just excited to get an affordable pack of presets out there for all of y’all to use. {I mean there’s absolutely no reason a single digital download should cost $60 bucks.}

Our newsletter subscribers will get a coupon code and exclusive access to my site when it goes live so make sure you are signed up for that here. Abigail says they are phenomenal so get hyped.

I also now get to be super annoying and mark all my pictures as “edited with _______”! Y’all thought I was annoying with all my NYC talk. LOL sorry friends.

Okay, that’s enough my antics. I’ll catch y’all this Friday with a new post. Haven’t decided what I’m writing about, so if you have some suggestion throw them my way.

keep on keepin’ on.
