paragraphs floating through the mind.

For the past few days I've been really focusing on decorating my new space...the den. My first "big girl" apartment. It's interesting how much money and time I am willing to spend to make something look just the way I want it. As a pisces, I am very influenced by the environment in which I am placed, and it is very important to me that I love the space in which I reside. I already love the den, but decorating my room...everything that goes into it...it's exhausting. I've been antiquing, shopping, browsing, haggling, budgeting, imagining, drawing, planning, and creating this area for weeks and it's finally all coming together. I don't move for another two months but once my job picks up a bit more, I'll have absolutely no time to think about the move. It's interesting that humans will spend so much energy on "sprucing" things up. I care way too much. Just something I've been up to.

All weekend, I've been without internet access. And it wasn't terrible. I thought I would die. Everytime I thought, "Oh I can look that up real quick!" and got dissapointed...I remembered things like the phone book and the home phone...all the information you need is right there. The internet is a wonderful thing, but good grief today's society is completely obsessed. I mean, look at me right now..I'm in a coffee shop/ internet cafe, blogging about the internet on the internet, when I should be doing homework on the internet, staring at other people who are working/playing on the internet...our world is technology obsessed. I feel like I am going to implement a "internet free day" once a week when it doesn't interfere withs chool or work and see how that plays out.

Coffee is a wonderful thing. It really does the trick. Just in case you didn't know. It works so much better than tea. Although I love tea and I don't want to hurt it's feelings, coffee is just so wonderful in the morning. Freshly ground whole bean hazlenut coffee to be exact. If you don't know what this magic bliss tastes like...I feel bad for you. Go get some and a coffee grinder (yeah I know, a little extra work...) and get to it. You won't be sorry.

I like cooking...and creating foods. Yesterday I made the best cheese dip ever. No I will not post the recipe because it is a secret and I kinda just want everyone to fawn over it before I publish it. It is delicious...and sets taste buds on fire. My mom gave me a few cookbooks to take to the den. I feel like there are lots of kitchen adventures ahead.

living, loving, and always looking up.

Egg White Omelette

Ah, life. Aren't you interesting? You throw us these twists and turns and try to get us to veer off the path...but you're not going to get me that easily. Go with the flow. Take it easy. Let the universe decide. Don't stress. Give it to God. I finally understand what all of these things mean and I am LOVING the results. I love life right now, twists and all. And it keeps getting better and better.

I'm making some big changes this summer...or trying to. I'm attempting to rejuvinate my mind, body, and soul in order to prep for this crazy life ahead. Home is a good place for that I think. These are good changes though...cooking more, having three vegetarian days a week, sticking with actual organization in my life, and for the first time in almost 6 years, I am without a man in this lil' town I call home. Feels weird (liberating) to be here by myself, but I'm liking being with just me a lot more than I expected. I love being happy.

Now for some much needed sleep :)

"Isn't life grand?"

p.s.s. egg white omelettes= amazing.

statements, lists, facts, events. life.

Go to the nearest park in the middle of the night. Lay in the middle of the pavement and look up. Look at all the stars. Breathe.
I don't enjoy being by myself.
I feel the best when I'm dancing.
I like sweating.
Sarcasm is one of my favorite qualities in a man.
If you can make me laugh...really, really giggle...you're golden.
Hot tea is wonderful at night.
Humidity is good for your skin, bad for your hair.
Church is amazing.
GOD is amazing.
I believe that when a young person dies, for what seems like a horribly unfair reason, something worse was coming, and God chose to bring them home where they could know nothing but joy instead.
I hope to have a relationsip like the people in Everybody Loves Raymond when I'm older. They really are a cute couple.
Chocolate heals.
So does neosporin.
For some reason, I don't think that little 14 year old lifeguard would be able to save my life.
I hate online spanish classes.
The Rep is one of my favorite places. I can't help but smile when I walk in the building, just from the smell and the memories it holds for me. It's nice to be back.
My mom is incredible.
Life is wonderful.
Summer is phenomenal.
Dance in the rain.
Contentment in oneself is freeing.
LOVE LIFE.

Let your soul fly free, let that spirit shine for all to see.

I have a wedding on Saturday...I do love weddings :)
