the joy of life...

a blanket unfolds, a blanket to lie

the pieces of gold, they light up your eyes

and now we're alone, and now we're alive

i'm in love with this song, so just hush

...feeling a little bit like these guys tonight.

currently developing a plan. only this one is for fun, not to get me out of any sort of pickle.

tonight's soundtrack:

that's right! i bought the album. one word: DELICIOUS.

i've had it in my possession for approximately 4 minutes, and i am completely obsessing over it.

goodbye to you

today i'm saying goodbye. to an old friend. an old love. a true companion.

dear friend,

why did you leave? i thought our time together would never end. i had no idea just how limited it was.

you were my +1 to so many great parties. you got me through countless sleepless, lonely nights.

when i needed a smile, you were there. when i needed someone who really knew my heart, you were there. when i couldn't find the words to express my ever-present girlish emotions, you were there.

they say "you never forget a first love." no one will ever take your place. you will be missed.

forever yours,

jordache

every girl out wants to be her

i went for a hike this morning and left feeling completely refreshed. i'll be honest though: i have yet to conquer my fear of coyotes. yikes. don't worry...none were spotted.

as i was driving home, i passed by this unbelievably rad row of mail boxes. they just rock, i'll be honest. and i kid you not, i drove by them 3 times wanting to stop to take a picture, and failed.

this got me going on a whole new idea for my not-so-resoluted 2010. i want to be the kind of girl who does what she wants. forget fears and hesitations. go with the impulse. you want to do it, so do it!

so here is the result of a very heated 2 minute internal debate...

...looks like 2010 is off to a great start.

we'd share each other like an island

new year's resolutions...still unsure.

though i've never been much of a new year's res kinda girl, i have thought of a few things that i would like to accomplish this year...

1. drink more water.

2. go to some dance classes. i don't even care what kind.

3. i really want to work on my blog. not content yet.

i saw a single man {the movie} tonight...interesting.

sleepy time now.

and ps...

i'm obsessed. can't stop listening.

...and i don't feel any different

currently looking for a fun way to celebrate this holiday. i refuse to spend the day alone in my dorm room! several things have crossed my mind, and as i've thought through them, this is what i have come up with...

{road trip}

+

{bridge hunt}

either way, i don't really want to think. :) let me know if you have any other suggestions. no telling how long this mood will last!
