My best friend’s wedding dress from last weekend. I took this picture before she put it on. It looked absolutely stunning on her!! I can’t believe my best friend has been a Mrs. for one whole week! ♡
I don’t know why tumblr has made the image so grainy…

Facts: My name is Jessica. I take way too many selfies. I am so excited it is summer. I have no makeup on. I just layed out. 
Sorry for the face spam.

Youtube videos such as “Riley on Marketing” and “A Kid’s Reaction to a Gay Couple” just prove that children are born open minded and love people for who they are rather than who society tells us we should be. It is the older generations that place gender stereotypes, homophobia, and stigma against something that is not the “norm” on children. We need to be more like these children and realize we once were these children. If we lived our lives with the acceptance these children have, the world would be a much happier place.

You all are so incredible and unbelievably supportive.

I honestly never expected the overwhelming number of responses to my post about the job interview. I do not know how I have been so blessed to have such amazing followers. You all honestly do not know how much all your kind words mean. 

For those of you who followed me throughout my grad school journey, application to PhD programs, rejections, and moving to find a job, thank you so much. For my new followers who have just “tuned in” for lack of a better term, thank you for your support too.

Y’all are so amazing. Each and every one of you. Never hesitate to contact me if you need anything. I will always be here for you. Even if we have never talked before, or if we talk all the time, I am seriously so thankful for each and every one of you. 

Just got a phone call about an interview for a teaching position starting in the fall. If I get the job I will be teaching abnormal psychology at a community college. I am so excited!

Now I just need to prepare for the interview and pray it will go well & that they like me.

I just added links to my two other blogs (Faces of Mental Illness & my fitness blog), as well as the ED blog I am an admin for on my sidebar. Feel free to check them out if you are so inclined.

When cleaning and sorting through things before moving back to South Carolina, I came across this list Spence made me, I want to say, around Summer 2009. I don’t think you can see it well, but it is titled “Reasons I Love You.” It made me smile so much. I am so blessed to have him in my life & I love him so much. 
Some of my favorites on the list include:“You play Mario Kart even though I always win.”“You wear hoodies even when it is hot outside.”“You let me cheat at lent.”“You would fall apart if you didn’t have your planner.”“You like terrible music like LFO and 2gether.”
Pretty much that is me in a nutshell haha.
I hate when people change their name on Facebook and I do not know who they are anymore.

…But not as much as I hate when people change their tumblr urls.

Just wanted to let y’all know why I have been absent the past few days, and will be for the next week or two. I am trying to get everything finished up before school ends, which includes a lot of papers, reading, etc. I have been taking on more clients at practicum as I will be working there this summer, which comes with more report writing. I also started moving back to SC this weekend. Spence and I got our keys yesterday so over the next two weeks I will be driving back and forth with car loads of stuff.

I will still come on to check messages and hopefully respond in a timely manner. My queue is set as always so I will still be posting, even if I am not physically on. I love you all & thank you for everything you have done <3

This is so stupid, feel free to scroll past…
