Friday Favorites

Is it just me, or has this week been dragging? I've been gearing up for a beach vacay next week, so maybe that's part of it............................................. and maybe it's just because let's all face it, we live for the weekend.

It's been a few weeks of slacking, but without further adieu here are my favorite things on the internet this week.

I can't wait to leave for Bike Week next Wednesday! Daytona Beach... I'm ready for you!

RESPECT AND RIP!!!

Best bit of textbook vandalism I've seen in a while.

Probably the best textbook doodle ever..

//I'm loving this blog post about the perfect Romantic Getaway Outfit.

//I love this article on 9 Things Every Person Should Do Alone. I've done 5 on this list and kind of want to try the other 4... but can you imagine traveling alone?! I don't know if I'm brave enough for that one...

//I love this response to the Taylor Swift vs. Tina Fey/Amy Pohler "feud".

This song has been on repeat all week. Say what you like, but Rhianna's my girl!

So I went home sick on Friday with an ear infection (womp womp)... but there are so many cool things that I found on the internet last week that I still wanted to share! So here it is, a few days late!

A collection of things I'm loving this week on the internet...

I'm obsessed with the octopus, and >> THIS << article totally blew my mind (omg you have to read it)! Also, the above picture was from a posting on facebook of all places... did you know:

"Octopus reproduction is fairly uniform across species. When a female is ready to mate, she releases a chemical into the water that attracts males. They follow this chemical to the female, where they will often fight one another for the right to mate with the female. Sometimes the female will mate with more than one male. The same chemical that attracts the males stops the males from... eating the female - cannibalism is common amongst octopodes."
