live in the moment.

song that just did it for me today:
sia :: breathe me

i was driving home after date night with b, and i had one of those moments. the one where you remember how amazing music is. one of those moments/feelings that you can't express to anyone else unless they too have experienced it. it's one of those moments where you don't really know how to describe the way you're feeling. it's just good. it's when you're listening to a really good song...in the car...alone...windows rolled down...left arm out the window...right hand on wheel. it's indescribable really. music is so powerful. i'm obsessed with it. ALL of it. tonight was sia's "breathe me" that did it for me. it's one of my favorites. i just never have gotten tired of it. it gives me that feeling everytime.
i can't believe that my best is married. i mean i can. cause...i was there. but. it's so weird. it's so exciting and sad at the same time. i kind of feel like we're on two different levels now sort of? she's skipped two chapters ahead of me. she always was impatient with the unknown. :) i'm still in the college slash single part of my story. she's in the post-grad slash married part. weird. maybe that's why i was asked if i felt "left behind" last weekend. i mean no...i've never thought about it like that really. i am 10 months + younger than the others. that gives me a little cushion, right? i guess i just didn't think it was SO bad to be single at the ripe age of twenty-three years old. maybe i'm further behind than i thought. apparently...if i don't "get on board soon" i'm going to have an account set up for me on eharmony. maybe this is another sign of why i should move north for a little while. ha yes, their lives are faster paced. everywhere EXCEPT in terms of relationships. oh em gee. i sound so bitter. i'm really not. really. okay...so...i guess i am, but only about those comments. needed to vent. moving alonggggg...
michael bublé...in concert...a-m-a-z-i-n-g. i've never experienced a concert like that. he somehow turned an arena into an intimate setting. PERFECT date concert. SO romantic. his song, "haven't met you yet" is my theme song. :) i'm picky. i can't help it. and. a little cynical. i'm still working on that...
i should be at walmart right now buying new moon. i'm in love with 7 up diet cherry. i need to substitute diet bevs with water. i'll start on that after i finish this one. i'm also in love with robert pattinson. i just spent the past 1.5 hours lusting. he's beautiful. unwashed hair and all. mom thinks he's "enchanting". presh. i just love over-sized watches. why do i make my late night bubble baths so unbearably hot? i feel so hardcore when i use a power drill. who needs a boy's help? after watching my bf and his co-star, emilie de ravin, pin each other up against walls and roll around in sheets i'm in need of an amazing makeout sesh. kthanks.

"...what i have is right here..."

mixed CDs are the best gift ever. no, seriously. best. ESPECIALLY if you have great taste.
oh. and mail. getting mail makes me so incredibly happy.
old school calligraphy grosses me out. so do plain, cream wedding invites with nothing but script words printed on them. yawn.
PDA doesn't necessarily just entail holding hands. it also includes social networking. it's SOO gross!!
example:
boy's status: worn out from the gym.
girl's comment on status: i know what else wears you out. ;)
NO ONE WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR BUSINESS. kthanks.
i get so frustrated by cookie cutter molded people. it's so boring. and it's so abundant in a college town. they're all pretty much carbon copies of one another. whatevs. i love funky, freestyle dressed people. fashion really is a fun way of expressing yourself. it's always been fun to me. i'm very much an advocate of if you like it you like it...who cares what anyone else thinks. EXPRESSSSS ya self. i don't care who makes it or whether it's this season's "it" item or not...if i like it i like it. the rules have been broken, and i LOVE it. give it uppppp. suede shoes and white are year round. black & brown DO go together. the way i feel about fashion is the same way i feel about interior design. i ADORE them both. my fave style in the two: vintage or vintage inspired. everything.
the phrase "let's keep in touch" is on the same page as the pageant smile + saying: hey! how are you?! while walking away w/o waiting on a response....SUPER lame and fake.
i still adore henry mancini's "moon river". it's such a classic.
i can't believe my best is getting married this weekend. it hasn't hit me yet. and. it probably won't hit me until the very moment of. i just can't fully process... we are growing up and it freaks me out more and more with each passing day!!!
i have a crush that i can't quit....
i want to be lying on a hammock listening to waves and reading a good book.
