but today is a new day.

pictures to come {after my victory of course}

freaking walgreens had lars and the real girl for 3.99 today.

s.o.l.d.

i'm feeling very distracted today. but in a completely perfect way. continual smile.

"don't you worry there my honey, we might not have any money, but we've got our love to pay the bills."

thanks for makin' me a fighter

i'm about to start a fight and there is no one around to hold me back.

meet {what i now KNOW to be} the villain of the century...

he's stubborn.

he's tough.

he's ugly.

he's got the joker, ursula, and voldemort beat by a hundred-fold.

time for this bad boy to come down so that i can put up my cute, sweet shabby chic curtain.

grrrrr....

are we there yet

via i am the crime

time for the weekend.

de-light.

hoping for some real blog time tomorrow :)

peace. love. friday.

throw me a rope

busy day ahead.

today i feel completely refreshed. i woke up and the sun was shining. i started my pot of coffee {and yes, i think i have successfully managed to drink the entire thing...yikes}, threw in a load of laundry, fed the puppita, and jumped in the car 15 minutes early. i'm never early.

i love how the morning brings with it a sense of rejuvenation. whatever i was feeling yesterday or last night is gone. today i feel good, and that is what i'm gonna go with. i know i've mentioned this before, but it's always fun to re-live and re-learn life lessons.

ps. class is rocking my world and stretching my mind today.

another ps. i think this coffee is starting to make me jittery. it's becoming difficult to type. eek.

much love.

one more ps. i am LOVING the music recommendations you girls gave yesterday. yum.

and i was like, why are you so obsessed with me?

last night, in class, i was reminded of one of my all time favorite movie moments.

thought i would share it with you today.

i just love this so much. it warms my <3 a little bit.

and confession: shall we dance makes me cry every time i watch it.

i can just hear you now: "jordan, this movie has jlo in it. no way is it tear-worthy!"

but whatevs. it's so sweet. don't judge.

on another note, i am currently in chick-empowerment-mode when it comes to my music these days. obviously. my itunes play count now holds an embarrassing record next to that delicious little tune i {finally} discovered yesterday!

SO...do you have any good suggestions for me? sometimes i have trouble branching out from the mainstream stuff, but i know there must be some other raging, angry girls out there, just waiting to meet my ears. thoughts?

also, it's a ladies only shift at starbucks today. no boys behind the counter. i kind of love that.

jordan's overall hump day attitude: i love being a girl.

i love love...

but don't mess with me.

"i'm out of this world, come with me to my planet. get you on my level, do you think that you can handle it?"

disclaimer: this is not the result of poor treatment. not jaded. happy :)

in the frontline of this battle of mine, but i'm still alive

{jordan's tuesday thoughts}

zumba: thanks for reminding me of how great you are

i love it when you talk geography to me :)

i hate the feeling that takes over when you encounter someone who is no longer a part of your life

i want more pictures of your face so i won't have to miss you so much

i'm so almost there

and finally,

sade: where have you been all my life??

i'm not even sure how many times i've listened to this today

yum. yum. yum. yum. yum.

"i'm a soldier of love. every day and night. i'm a soldier of love. all the days of my life."

{sade}

ps. all of the images from today's post are from this fabulous blog.
might be a new obsession of mine.

dreams on fire

via i am the crime

i love this.

today i'm going to try some goal-setting.

i don't want to just float through life all the time. 

how can you make sure you are getting what you want out of life, if you don't even know what you want?

this week i need to / want to / have to:

get back to zumba on tuesday morning. i love it. why am i dreading it?

do some homework in advance. i'm a student...it's what i'm here to do.

drink more coffee. fewer lattes, macchiatos, vanilla chais. just coffee.

on that note, i should probably throw a little more h2o into the mix. duh.

choose one b.o.r.i.n.g. weekday to put as much effort into my appearance as i would if i were going out.

make my apartment look a little more like home. i want to love it.

fall asleep to my favorite chick flicks again. i did this every night in college and i don't do it anymore. i miss it.

{what are you hoping to accomplish this week??}

"baby, you've got the sort of hands to rip me apart. and baby you've got the sort of face to start this old heart."
