adele :: to make you feel my love

redundant, but it's so true. i really just love that in life...it's all a big mystery. we don't know where it will lead us. it's what makes it so fun and exciting. i need to quit making out with the pavement. we have an awful relationship. i'm soooo confused. i want to see love happens sooo badly.

"...i'm ready now..."

current obsession/repeat:

i giggle about the fact that when i was younger i actually made myself a time line of events to take place in my future. oh how things actually turn out... and i love it. the beauty of it is that we don't know what's gonna happen or when it will. current predictions made by the bffs: 24 1/2 or 26 and 26 or 27. we shall see how accurate they are later. i adore destructive jeans and a man in a suit [most especially a man in a suit in church on sunday morning].
i'm ready.
take a leap of faith with me.

i will never be the girl that...
throws herself at a boy.
[regardless of how amazing he is]
uses makeup as war paint.
[it is to enhance the beauty that God has already given us]
thinks that i am better than ANYONE else because of my material possessions.
[or for any reason for that matter. we are all created equals]

kate nash :: navy taxi

i LOVE zucchini and squash. and really just vegetables in general. i despise TRYING to coordinate anything involving a group. i've never understood why people can't just commit and stick to it. i guess that's what's wrong with the world. everyone is such a commitment phobe. whatevs. this is why i'm going to london by MYSELF. whenever i go to any kind of accounting function with school i feel like such a freakin' loser. i mean...it just worries me because i am not that person that was involved in everything. i was the one that was busy having playtime all of freshman and sophomore year and is currently strug-guh-lin to pull up my gpa and working all the time. i'm just like...umm...can i get my piece of paper please without you making me feel like a total failure for not finishing with a 4.0 or being SGA president. kthanks.

live with intention.
walk to the edge.
listen hard.
practice wellness.
play with abandon.
laugh.
choose with no regret.
continue to learn.
appreciate your friends.
do what you love.
live as if this is all there is.

(500) days of summer soundtrack

i can just feel it. the rest of this year is going to be wonderful. i love love loved (500) days of summer. zooey deschanel is amazing/HYSTER!! the soundtrack is gloriousssss. it's this week's playlist. this time of year is one of my faves...football season is around the corner and new school supplies!! it bothers me that 2" and 3" 3-ring binders are very limited as far as color choices are concerned. i am a very scatter-brained/absent minded (whichever you prefer) individual. i get it honestly. i am my mother's daughter, and she was hers. for this reason...i HAVE to have one binder, and one only for all of my classes. hence the need for the 2"-3", cute colored 3-ring binder. i have had the same binder dividers for years. i love them, and refuse to get rid of them unless i find the exact same ones again. i'm a freak. but. at least i can admit it.

"...maybe i will tell you all about it when i'm in the mood..."

john mayer :: 3x5

i think that you have a VERY selective memory. you like to place gold stars by your name on your friend chart for all of your good friend deeds. you seem to forget what others have done for you, and you DEFINITELY like to (conveniently) forget what you do to others. you were very hurtful the other night. but i'm sure you've probably already forgotten about it. every time i think about you i can hear your hurtful words. the thing is...if i try to talk to you about it...you'll see it as confrontation and shut me out. so...i'm kind of like...do i even bother? is there really any point anymore?

"...i'm gonna get there soon..."

mat kearney :: closer to love

i am so incredibly blessed. God has given me amazing friends. true, real friends. i never realized just how blessed i was until i moved to tuscaloosa, and witnessed others' "friendships". i love my people. this has been the best birthday to date! i haven't been able to say this in a while, but i truly love my life. i am the happiest i have been in a long time. and i'm just so antsy to see what my future holds. ohh. and sushi for the first time in 5 months - orgasmic.

some people pay large sums of money to professionals for their therapy. i prefer music, driving long distances, releasing my thoughts/feelings via here, and retail. iceberg lettuce is so stupid. i hope that all of my new neighbs are cooler than the old ones. so overcast it might as well be raining + a down comforter + $1 movie rentals = pure bliss. some people feel sexiest in short dresses and heels. me...a tee and panties. i wish that i had insane funds in the bank...you'd never see me again...i'd live out of a suitcase and travel. some days i just wanna go. i'm having one of those moments.
