I've got a lot on my mind lately, but none of it ever passes my lips.
All I'm good for is making lists.
Good weather is my best friend and my wrists and ankles are so thin.
I am self-conscious and I tremble when I'm nervous.
Teeth and ribs and hair and all things lovely.
I like handwritten letters and devotion.
I like adventures and being spontaneous.
You are my solace when everything goes wrong, be my best friend forever my love.
I love patient, calm people.
I like driving with windows down.
I can't see over the steering wheel.
I like to travel and Western Europe excites me.
One of my favorite things to do is cook for people.
I would wear dresses everyday if the sun would stop playing hide and seek.
I like tents made from sheets and reading under them.
I like comfort and silence and alone time.
My friends are cosmic and magical and forever, ever mine.
I like table manners and loud voices from soft spoken people.
I'll forever love you as long as you don't wrong me.
Two thousand eight needs to end and leave me forever.
I'm always reading or writing or dreaming.
Imperfection is perfection and I love all kinds of beauty.
Endless quoting of movies, lyrics and books.
Arrogance is the worst thing ever, and dishonesty.
I'm not a saint.
Language barriers and mediterranean interest me.
Last kisses.
Not a good girl, not a bad one.
Trying to be better, but something keeps getting in the way.
Try not to exhibit sadness but it pours through neverending and renders me helpless.
Winter air is the best air to breathe.
I'll adore you if you spend time with me.
I'm not a lapdog, I've closed that door.
I am just here, Show me something.



This week went by way too slow.
In fact, too slow.
Nothing spectacular going on, I'm in about the same situation as I'm always in.
Happy and great like Frosted Flakes.
I can't wait to get back on a regular schedule of work, having to do everything with an unexperienced co-worker is not my favorite thing. It'll be nice to be back to normal--whatever normal is..
I've felt so festive lately, I can't wait for Christmas.

This was a fun photoshoot that I did spontaneously.

Most of my favorite photos are the ones that aren't set up and it seems as if that's all I ever do, but this one I could just see turning out, so I did it.
I'll have more Christmas photos coming soon. (: I went nuts and spoiled my class on Wednesday. Bought and wrapped their presents already, it's wonderful. I still have everyone else to buy for, Mom, Dad, Lindsay, Keaton, Emma, Jeff, Aleesha, visiting teachers, primary kids, coworkers, etc. This'll be fun, I hope I can find something creative, and very cheap to give most of them. Any ideas? The thing is, I'm just in the mood to spoil everyone this year, but I have to remember to keep a limit so I can save my money. (And that's always hard for me.) Friday I'll get most of my Christmas shopping done, I'll be at the mall for a field trip that I am looking forward to.

Today I got news that my Grandpa may be moving in with us in the next few days.
My response was, "Where will he stay?"
Considering we have no extra room.
Somehow, I wound up saying that Emma could be in my room. Now, why would I do that?
I have no idea.
Lets not think about that right now.
It almost makes me want to pack up my things, but where would I go?
I keep telling myself it'll be okay, but it's my flawed brain keeps reminding me.

Yesterday while shopping with my cute mom and sister, I made some of the best purchases ever at Urban Outfitters.
I got these cute China Doll shoes for only $15.00. My mother keeps reminding me that she had them when she was my age-she is truly inspirational!

This was probably where I scored the most, the cashier even agreed. I got this purple loose knit cami that's topped with tonal mesh embellishments. It was originally 48 bucks, and I got it for 10! Sooooo cute with my new black sweater over it.

Lastly, my favorite. These haven't come off of my feet since I bought them, besides the three hours I was at church. Only 18 dollars! They have them in red, with cute cream hearts and a navy blue with a design on them. I'm definitely going back soon to go get them.
