Hello Kitty, Goodbye Stress

Being my senior year one would think that my schedule is super light and I am just cruising by well if you think that you would be wrong. Last week, my stress got the best of me and at the last minute, I decided to flee good old Ada and travel to Columbus for a relaxing weekend.

While in Columbus, I took a day trip to Easton. I couldn’t remember the last time I was even there, but I was not disappointed. The outdoor indoor concept was a great way to help make it seem like the shops were not as busy as they actually were. During the time I was there, Easton was having artists do sidewalk chalk art, which made me sad to know that I wasn’t that artistic.

The best thing about my weekend, except for the fantastic food, was when I saw the Hello Kitty Café van. For those who don’t know someone recently opened a Hello Kitty Café in California. Basically, it’s a place were Hello Kitty lovers can go and enter the world of Hello Kitty and enjoy sweet treats during their afternoon. This van is essentially a pop-up version that travels around the United States. I didn’t know that this was supposed to be at Easton the day I was there, but it was a delightful surprise. For someone who grew up with Hello Kitty, geeking out over the van made the stress I was experiencing melt away. I ended up standing in line a buying a small souvenir but it was worth it. It is amazing what seeing something that reminds you of a past less stressful can do!

I know that this blog is meant to speak about fashion, but sometimes you have to take a break and know that everyone needs a break at times, and sometimes that break can be a weekend of relaxing and shopping!
