five down seven to go.

may is gone, and in looking back at my resolutions,
here's a quick recap of the month:

sleep early - check! at least twice a week.
exercise - bad news is that work won't allow me to meet up with the gang anymore [totally bummed!]. good news is that i was able to meet up after work a couple times to hike and paddle.
girl time - check! wine with the neighborhood moms and
beach picnics with the girls.
 read - almost done with live wire by harlan coben. for realz!
one-on-one mini time - nope, but we did
a lot of activities together.
try something new - check! hiked aina haina valley, paddled in
a two-man canoe, visited ho'omaluhia botanical gardens.
fix laptop - nope.
organize posts - check! got in a few reviews for

(abercrombie tank worn over this dress with aldo shoes)
june brings us beach, sun, refreshing drinks, and lots of outdoor get togethers.

how was your may? any exciting plans for june?

Luh-huh-UVE that outfit. Dress as skirt ROCKS. Y'know what else rocks? The tiger tee from F21, which you can get here: http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?category=top&ProductID=2000040721&utm_source=google&utm_medium=base&utm_campaign=product_feed

DO IT. I think it's required if you're the year of the tiger. SOME of us are the year of the cock. Tee heee...but come ON, how cool does a rooster on a tee shirt look? Not very.

great maxi skirt! it's so flowy bright and beautiful! great necklace too!!!

sounds like you're doing well with your resolutions. it's okay to not get them all done! i started doing yoga which gave me a little bit of relaxing exercise (though some of those poses kicked my booty!!!).

and BTW, i can't believe your sis gave you her LV bag!!! that's so exciting. my sis mentioned she might give me her MJ ones but i haven't seen it yet :)
