i do not understand...

• girls over the age of 10 who still participate in pageants.
  
  
• balance bracelets or those other livestrong type bracelets.
  
  
• guys that wear wife beaters or graphic tees.
  
  
• arrogance.
  [it is SO terribly unattractive and makes me want to vom.]
  
  
• people with a skewed sense of reality.
  

• people that are all talk and no action.
  [save your breath.]
  

• why the tank+flowy skirt dress or ANYTHING resembling it is STILL being worn.
  [i'm just SO incredibly tired of seeing it. sorry.]
  example:
  

a few adorations...

• pairing turquoise & royal blue/cobalt together.
  

• rob pattinson's voice. well him in general. but his voice is SO sexy.
  one of my faves of his ["i'll be your lover too"]:
  

• this dress:
  [i'm not big on bows, but this just does it for me]

i believe in all natural, but i completely contradict this with finding nothing wrong with certain cosmetic surgeries and body waxing. body hair shouldn't be left as is. ever. ugh. i say this all the time, but i will NEVER understand why it is so incredibly difficult for some people to smile or to say please and thank you. i adore the grandmother from spanglish. i'd forgotten how absolutely hyster she is!
rules are rules for a reason. i am glad that i have given myself certain rules that i must follow (especially those concerning the male gender), but sometimes it is SO i-n-c-r-e-d-i-b-l-y FRUSTRATINGGGGG to follow them. bahhhhhh. strugglinggggggg. another thing that really frustrates me is having a convo via text that is entirely too long to have.
i want to go to a water park and stay from open until close. reading a good book and sunbathing on the beach next to my best is the best.
i completely agree with and adore olivia wilde's response on what makes the perfect leading man?: “they have to have a sense of humor and humility. you really have to have a sense of humor; it’s so important."
i think it's so incredibly boring to wear a nude bra if your shirt is even the slightest bit sheer. call me trashy, but you won't catch me doing it. instyle even backed me up saying that the more sheer it is the fancier the undergarments should be. chels knows what's up too:

movies i want to see:

something borrowed.
[LOVE this book!]


friends with benefits.


bad teacher.


bridesmaids.

adele :: set fire to the rain
[i am so obsessed with her voice.]

current obsessions:

• beef jerky
• sugar free bread & butter pickles
• muscle milk light bar (vanilla toffee crunch)

current big girl cravings:

• curious george & strawberry fields forever cupcakes from dreamcakes

• a RIDICULOUSLY large & in charge breakfast from another broken egg including a banana's foster pancake, a blueberry pancake, scrambled eggs, cheese grits, sausage, and mimosas

• bread pudding pancakes from edgar's

i admit it. i have a problem. i am addicted to online shopping. it's just TOO convenient (even though the majority of my fave stores are less than a mile from my house). lust is just a quick click away. my current compulsive purchases include bathing suits. after SEV-ER-AL (10 to be precise + a few extra tops to compare colors/styles) purchases AND returns my final choices for 2011's swimsuits are (if ONLY the bangin' bods came with) :

"you should be kissed, and often. and by someone who knows how."
-- rhett butler [gone with the wind]

i am an affectionate person. always have been. always will be. not receiving that is a deal-breaker.
i have decided that i am just not cut out for dating. end of story.
i am so apathetic to it all...
that's why i'm just "going along" with whoever/whatever comes my way...
don't get too invested and you won't get hurt.
in the words of one of my best guy friends,
"just put on a sexy dress and let them take you out. just enjoy it and have fun!"
i want to be pursued.
hard core.
the questioning and wondering is exhausting....
and personally...
i don't think that you should be questioning OR wondering about anything....
it should just be obvious.
this commersh makes me happy:

i don't deal well with sketchiness. in ANY form.
i wish that men were similar to pre-approved credit cards. that you could just bypass the application (interview/dating) process of finding out if you're approved (compatible with that person). find out if you are and THEN get to know them. i know...it's backwards and ridiculous, but it would make things much easier.
this little boy can do no wrong in my eyes:
little snuggle bug...

amos lee :: flower

complete and utter adoration:

• 1000 awesome things blog
  [^ seriously. amaze. be about it...]

• the combination of bananas & extra crunchy peanut butter.

• being the little spoon. underneath a big pile of blankets. in a freezing cold room.

• sitting outside on a GORGE day catching up with friends over frozen yogurt.

• these dresses:

"...don't need another one when we got one another..."

i'm so happy that michael & holly are back together!!

"...all that we are after is a little bit of fun..."

recently played:

akon :: sexy bitch
sia :: bring night
edward maya :: stereo love

for valentine's day i...

am self-indulgent, and buy myself something fancy or simply treat myself.
[this year: i'm going to get myself a mani + pedi and MAYBE these beauties also:wear ALL black.
watch a girly movie or movies.
eat lots of sweets [in any form really...]
[this year: in lieu of chocolate/cookies/ice cream i will have a protein bar
OR
MAYBE a single. for real. ONLY 1 (110 calories) serving of these LEGIT blessings that my bestie introduced me to:
but.
if i wasn't TRYING to get sjp's/jenn anniston's hot bod for swimsuit season...
i'd be spending quality time with these HEAVENLY friends of mine:just to list a few...

i think that it's so important to encourage your significant other to do and be their best. one area i feel that is often overlooked is fitness (after i list my top big girl faves haha). it's so easy to get "comfortable" and just sort of let yourself go. while i do think that if you truly love someone you should love them regardless if they put on a few, but at the same time why wouldn't you want to be your best self for the one you care about/love? wait. no. even MORE importantly...why wouldn't you want to be your best for you? anywayyy...i just think that it's sexy when couples work out/exercise in general together which is also why i just LOVED this link:

MORE LOVE. LESS HANDLES.


i'm excited about the goodies that i'm sending to my valentines this year. :)

X's & O's cheesecake cookies

and

chocolate sugar cookies.

terms of endearment that i'm not a fan of so much:
sweetie. dear. babe. hun.

i just love this commercial! i'll probably end up resorting to this website one day so i should probably bookmark it...
