And these are a few of my favorite thiiiiiiiiiings

Photo adventured with my  best friend yesterday. Lovely day. The sun was bright, and it was only 70 degrees. :)

Late night inspiration hits me around 2 a.m. quite often. I'll be listening to artists like Bon Iver, or Owen, and my mind will start wondering far away. I've been in quite the rut lately. I'm not sure if it's the weather, or if I just haven't been feeling myself lately, but I feel as though everyone around me are moving forward so quickly, and I'm a a halt, not moving at all,  just absorbing the feelings and people around me. Change is in the air, I can feel it. New decisions will be made, and new people will always be introduced. Some people will come and go, and some will be there for you always. Time to focus on the good, and not the bad.

Love Actually

February may be next month, but Valentines Day is in the air. At least for me. Today I watched Happy Valentines Day Charlie Brown. It's one of my favorites, and it always makes me want to go purchase lots of art's and crafts and to start making a billion and one Valentines Day cards. Valentines Day for some reason happens to be my favorite holiday, and as weird as it is, I'm already ready for it to be here! This Valentines Day is going to be very special to me. I'm traveling down to good ol' New Orleans for Mardi Gras, to see my boyfriend and his family & Valentines Day happens to fall on the same week! What are the odds? Those are my two favorite things in the whole wide world! Eeeeeeee!

Today, has been lovely

 

November 11, 2013 

It has been one of the most marvelous days that I have had in awhile. Today was my bestest friends birthday. I woke up super early and made her a feast for a princess. (pancakes, muffins, Cinnamon rols, orange juice, the whole shebang) It was perfect. We just spent the day being girly, and watching the Perks of Being a Wallflower. This evening, me her and the gang went out to dinner for mellow mushroom. So, so good. The best decision we made all day :) We ended the evening by going to see the new movie, Gangster Squad. It in all honesty, was one of the greatest films that I've seen in quite some time. Ryan Gosling was beautiful, Emma Stone was lovely as always, and the plot of the movie was just excellent. The 1940's, man. If someone could just invent a time machine, that would be perfect. I came home, crawled in bed, and then checked my shipment for my new hello kitty phone case. To my surprise, it said delivered! I ran to my kitchen, and there she was, my beautiful new hello kitty phone case, that I only paid $4 buckaroos for on Amazon. What a great end to the most lovely day.  

 :) happy birthday best friend. xoxo

Rainy Tuesday.

Yesterday, and today have been full of rain, and relaxation. It's just something that I can't get enough of. I woke up, and went to work this morning, and then came home and had lunch with my mum! I forget sometimes to tell myself to just slow down, and breathe in the fresh air and remember that life was put here for us to enjoy. Just a little something I need to work on. The weekend is coming up, and I can't wait! Celebrating my best friends birthday.  Well now I need to get ready for TUE7(mychurchgatheringOnTUESDAYS@7) ;) See you kids later.

Being 20 is very different for me. I'm in that in between age, that I'm not sure how to take seriously. I'm no longer a teenager, but I am still not officially the age of an "adult". It's one of those ages that I want to get over with as quickly as possible. Maybe, I should have a completely different outlook on it. Next week is my best friends birthday, and she is turning 20 as well. She asked me recently what it was like to no longer be a kid, and I sort of pondered on it. I can no longer fly off to never, never land. As a child, that's all I thought about, what it would actually be like to fly off with Peter Pan and never ever have to grow old. Now that I've gotten older, and every one around me has grown older, it's more real to me how short life really is. It's sort of hitting me in the face that my Grandparents wont be here forever. On my birthday, I received a text message from my Grandmother that said "Hi sweetheart, this is Nanny, I just wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday. Don't know what your plans are to celebrate, but whatever have a great time because unlike me you only get to be 20 once." I thought about this, and I came to the realization that I can't wait to grow old. I can't wait to grow old and look back at all the memories and good times that I had. I think growing old is a beautiful thing, too many people try so hard to prevent it.

Today, has been one of those lazy days that only comes around every so often. I just wish that a certain someone could have been here to enjoy it with me. My boyfriend lives 10 hours away, where they love their craw fish, and invented Mardi Gras.
