Thanksgiving
Song: Falling- The Civil Wars.
I WILL COVER THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, because it is beautiful. <3 But anyway, it's thanksgiving, so I'm doing a list. oh, how i love lists. this is an "i'm thankful for" list. which is nowhere near complete, but i am lazy and in Daytona, and so this is what happened. I love you all. <3
and, i will leave you all with a thaksgiving poem. by e.e.cummings
“thank You God for most this amazing
day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes
(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun’s birthday;this is the birth
day of life and love and wings;and of the gay
great happening ilimitably earth)
how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any - lifted from the no
of all nothing - human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?
(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)”

 |
| These ladies are my heroes. <3 I am so thankful for my choir, I would not trade it for the whole entire world. |
 |
| I am thankful for Elsie. (: This is my best friend in the entire world. Whether we are having near death experiences, or laughing until we cannot breathe, or totally creeping people's backyeards *cough cough*, or dicussing life and boy drama, she's always been there for me. I love her to death, and she is one of the most absolutely beautiful people I know. <3 |
 |
| I am thankful for Bri. This right here is my sister, and we're gonna get married on the same day and go to California and become famous. We have a little too much fun on all accounts, and think just alike. |
 |
| I am thankful for my mommy. <3 She does so much for me, and teaches me how to be a better person. She's not only my mom, but my friend, and I love her so much. |
 |
| I am thankful for Kyle. <3 For being the only person in the universe to consistently read my blog, and for automatically making my day better when he talks to me. Kyle, I'm going to tell you this, because I don't think you believe it: you are one of the single most wonderful people in the universe. You are intelligent, and hilarious. You are fun to be around, a great friend, and so many other things. I can't even tell you how much you mean to me, because you know just about everything about me, and you never judge, and you still look at me the same way. I adore you, and I cannot wait until we get platonically married and move to europe and drive a kia soul with a transformers sticker on the back and adopt turtles and drink hazelnut coffee and play scrabble all the time and you have an affair with the maid, and I have an affair with the pool boy and then we have our own reality tv show. That will be the life. Anyway. Suffice to say that I love you. <3 |
 |
| I'm thankful for ALL of my friends, you know who you are. I'd have to dedicate an entire blog to typing all of you up, but I ADORE you. |
 |
| I am thankful for Jak. I will be cheesy here, because it is my blog and you can x out if you want. What can I even begin to say about this boy? He's mine, for starters, and I'm so glad. He's not just my boyfriend, he's my bestfriend. He's the first person I want to tell when something happens, and the last person I want to hear from before I fall asleep. He has stretched my capacity to love and care for someone infinitely, and changed my outlook on long term relationships. (and those of you who know me, well. you know that's a big deal. ) He's made me believe that, maybe there actually is such a thing as a relationship that can last. I can honestly say that I love him, and I want nothing more than for him to be happy. He's the stars in my night sky, and I'm thankful for everything he does- i'm thankful that he makes me feel beautiful, and reads me dr.seuss on the phone before bed. that he can make me believe that everything will be okay, and that he makes me want to be a better person. i'm grateful to him for teaching me what it means to love someone like a partner, and how it feels to be unconditionally loved. Jak, I love you, and I am beyond a doubt thankful to have you in my life. |
 |
| Oh, and I'm thankful for Dr.Pepper. Just sayin. |
and, i will leave you all with a thaksgiving poem. by e.e.cummings

My Christmas/Birthday List... for the next 5 years
SOTW: Bass Down Low- Dev feat. The Cataracts
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ql2m68NiW8
i found it on a compilation cd, and i've been blasting it in my little cruiser ever since.
Anyway, it's FINALLY getting cold outside. I for one am equal parts excited and dreading it. My makeup won't melt off anymore... but my feet will probably freeze. Oh well. News, news, news. I have to update everyone~~ I've been so busy with college that I haven't had much time for blogging.
Well, my classes are going fantastically. <3 I made A's on both my first Biology and my first Math tests. My midterm for English is in about 2 hours, so we'll see how that goes... online classes suck. Communications is fantastic, my partner and I are doing our persuasive speech against capital punishment. Previous to this, I had no opinion on it, but I think I am legitimately against it now. Someone should find me and debate it with me, because it's interesting.
Let's see, I got a job scaring the emily dickinson out of people. www.fearthewoods.com ... check it out. and if you're brave enough, come see me? ;D I'm so excited, asdfghjkl.
Things are going fantastically with one act competition. I have to like, talk like a total, like, barbie doll. But it's worth it, cause it's really cool. <3 And and, and and, and and, and and. I'm so lucky to be part of it.
My dear friend Bri had her quinceanera the other day, and I must say, it was fantastic. It was a masquerade, and everyone looked completely gorgeous. While we were all on the dance floor, I kept thinking that if life had a moment of "happily ever after", that would be it. Everyone was happy, everyone was dancing, and it was beautiful. The interesting thing though, is that there's never a happily ever after. relationships will fall apart to be replaced with new ones, dresses will be grown out of and put away, and in a hundred years, the building will be gone, and everyone at the party will have died. there will be new people, new parties, new moments of perfection. but that's not sad to me... that's beautiful. that's proof that the universe keeps spinning, keeps going. i love it.
So, in honor of the fact that, although it is only september, walmart has got their christmas stuff out, i have made a christmas list, and encourage each of you to do the same. it takes the guesswork out of things. i always have to wonder what i'm getting eveyone, and if they'll like it... except for you kyle, i already know what i'm getting you. ;D but yeah, this is my chirstmas/birthday list (since they're only really 2 months apart) for the next five years.

Reasons Why I Love Blogging
sotw: wonderwall- oasis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hzrDeceEKc&feature=BFa&list=FLILViEKj7rf7mJey3p0RxaQ&lf=mh_lolz
I love blogging. I love it so much more than trying to write in a diary. And here are my reasons.
1. blogs are never "due". if i'm busy and end up skipping a few weeks, my grade point average doesn't suffer. (: plus, the only one who gets mad at me is kyle.
2. they can double as narrative essays. i had an essay due today that i didn't have time to write, so i went back and combined and edited some of my old blogs, and voila~ brand new essay.
3. i can go back and look at the things i thought. most of the things i mention in my blog are things i wouldn't even remember. but i can read them and laugh at how awesome/bluck they were, and how different things are now.
4. they're public, so you automatically monitor what you say. which means less embarrassing moments. it's not like a diary when you go back and read it and want to shoot yourself because everthing you said was completely moronic.
5. they double as narrative essays. (:
6. they wait on me. i can work on it sporadically for five minutes a day, and then leave it. and it doesn't get mad at me.
7. i can delete them.
8. they double as narrative essays. (:
9. creative outletttt, ftw.
10. THEY DOUBLE AS NARRATICE ESSAYS, YEAHHHHHHHH. :D

it's blog wednesdayyyyy (the first one ever)
and i feel like the song of the day should be called the song of the week, SO, here we go,
sotw: i don't mind- defeater
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1IdKeZU8hs&feature=BFa&list=FLzxayHbZlkcY&index=11
because it's emily dickinson ADORABLE. <3
i had a few ideas for this blog, and i'll get to them, but there's something i kind of want to muse about. and it's this whole relationship thing... everyone knows i suck at it. like, everyone. it's like, i don't think i've ever been in a relationship that lasted over 2 months. and yeah, i'm usually the one who breaks it off. there are a whole bunch of psychological reasons for that, but i don't even want to get into them today. i mean, everyone thinks i'll eventually get over it. hell, even i think that. usually. but i was thinking about it today, and i don't even know how i'm supposed to get married. i'm terrified of it, really. cause i look around and see all these married couples, and you know what? something like 95% of them don't even like each other anymore. they bicker and fuss or ignore each other. they tolerate each other because they're already married. but let me be honest: i don't get the point of that. i do not want to get married to someone just to end up tolerating them later on. what's the point? i can live by myself. or buy a dog or something. and i'd be perfectly happy. i like not having to answer to anyone. i like being home alone and blasting my music or deciding what to watch on tv or cleaning or not cleaning when i feel like it. i like being able to plan my schedule around me and, if i feel like it, just taking off for the weekend to somewhere. maybe in that sense, i'm selfish, but whatever. it's how i am. i just don't see the point in living with someone you don't even like. it's kinda like, why bother? don't get me wrong, i like human relationships. if my life could be like the notebook and i knew for sure that i was going to love and talk to the person i marry until the day i die, that would be one thing. but it just never seems to work like that. like, the strain of daily life and work and kids takes over. just, ugh. sometimes i want to disappear.
but anyway. enough rambling. on to less depressing subjects.
I MADE ONE ACT.
asdfghjkl, i am so super duper excited. <3 i play a moronic valley girl, and it is much to my chagrin that i can do it so well. XD kevin says he's never gonna talk to me again if i get stuck talking like that like i did with dearly departed... who would have guessed that cultivated southern accents linger? but WHATEVER BRO, you're my bestfriend, you gotta put up with me.
oh, speaking of kevin, he showed me the most awesome movie ever. wristcutters, a love story. which is not nearly as emo as you would think, but is actually adorable and hilarious and well thought out. it's on netflix, if anyone has that.
i also maybe have a job? at a mexican restaurant... the manager person seems to like me, so i'm going to apply and see where that goes. as if i need any more demands on my schedule, buthey. i could use the extra $$$ and it teaches responsibility and such. you know, all that good stuff.
oh, and coolest part of today- weightwatchers is paying off. i can fit into my dress~~~~ oh my god, i'm so excited. i've never been able to get into this dress without squeezing and sucking in, but today i just put it on and zipped up the back. <3 it made my LIFE. (especially due to the fact that i have to wear this particular dress to a disney dance with boyfriend in about 10 days... it's nice that i can get it on without asphyxiating.) but then again, it SUCKS cause we're doing a cheesecake sale in chorus, and i WANT SOME. )): cause it looks delicious. if anyone wants to buy cheesecake or awesome fluffy pretzels, you know where to find me.
so anyway, it's late, and i have a chorus officer poster to make. i might elaborate on some of this tomorrow, but we'll see.
