I miss your accent. Its been plaguing my dreams every night fir the last week. I wish you weren’t so far away. I miss the way you talked, so endearing as you showed off your English. I miss the way you made me feel special, even if it was for a short time.
“You can come here anytime you wish”
Oh, if only it were that simple
Why can’t I be paid to do what I love rather than try to find a way to love something I can be paid to do?
chopping 4 inches off my hair was an extremely quick-thought, yet extremely liberating thing to do.
3 cups of coffee consumed in the past ten minutes. Half a pot brewed and ready to drink
bring it on stupid calculus test!
bring it on hopeless econ test!
The combination of caffeine, interrupted by continual jam sessions - which have been full of random songs that have been spewing out of my soul-and the perfect pandora.com channel “film scores genre” is making me especially...
The only way of catching a train I ever discovered is to miss the train before.

it’s like he knew the story of my life
Tell me what you saw in me,
and I’ll try to replicate it with a scene

this is why i don't approach celebrities...
I always freeze. I don’t want to speak in fear that I’ll be so obsessive sounding. But these are my personal worst opportunities to actually show how much I love these guys.
Ketch from Old Crow Medicine: “Hey there, now, how did you enjoy the show?”
Me: “Uh, it was great, such a great, great show” (wow, so redundant nat)
Ketch: “Yeah, you guys were a...
1. one of the most passionate and beautiful things i’ve ever experienced
2. i wish i could be as excellent at something as this man, i’d rather be excellent at one thing that mediocre at dozens of things
3. I want to explore what is on this man’s wall
4. cello is my favorite instrument

Just met alexander ebert! For the first time, I was in the right place at the right time :)
Great concert
I miss having a crush on you dread pirate Roberts. You were fun to adore from afar. You had the best freckles. We were both too shy to ever speak, but I liked when you would climb the tree branches above where I slept. How we would bike past each other on campus and like children, be so nervous we would pretend we didn’t see one another, staring quickly and uninterrupted at the ground. I still...
Parks and Rec quote of the day
“Love is like scuba diving. If you come up too fast, you get the bends. And the reason that I know this is I was dating a guy once and we were scuba diving, and I told him that I loved him underwater, and he shot up really fast and got the bends.”
-Leslie Knope (who else)
fortune cookies can be oddly inspirational
I got this fortune cookie yesterday that read “Approach every area of your life with boldness”
Somehow, I think this is God’s funny sense of humor, EVERY time I read a fortune cookie, it is exactly what I need to hear, or exactly what I’m going through in my life. Ironic? I think not…Inspirational? Heck ya!!!
Econ test? Bring it!
Calc test? Bring it!
Talking to...
my generation needs a test.
we need a world war or something drastic.
we are selfish, entitled, angry because it is easier, lazy, sloppy, apathetic, cliche, rude, shallow and hurting.
we need something to wake us up, something to make us feel something more important than our every waking emotion. something to form us into men and women, something to force us to make our life count, to put...
do you ever wonder what sexual immorality really is?
Besides the obvious (sex) and sex-like acts….what is it? I’ve been really convicted of it lately. Kissing people that don’t mean enough to me is a problem. I’m taking the sacred quality out of the thing.
The paper faberge casings of our dreams...
My dreams have been taking wild whirl-wind turns, sledding through the tunnels of my brain and finding the secret whims and wishes I’ve learned to hide so well. I’ve learned to tuck them away, far from my sleeve, because that way I can’t be disappointed. They’ve stemmed from the numerous conversations I have been having, surrounded relationships, I would surmise.
I...
I just want the Tumblr world to know,
literally the most absolute truth statement EVER
cultivatethehabit:
That Parks and Recreation is the best show on television.
so i guess you could say, things are looking up!
let’s just re-cap the last 24 hours:
1. got a nosebleed on my way to work. no napkins in the car. gross. bled all over my white tshirt and work uniform. got to work late, and covered in blood. awesome
2. got another nosebleed later that night, and consequently a migraine, and consequently couldn’t meet my good friends new precious baby girl. awesome.
3. split my lip during the night...
Maybe my Econ teacher was right when he told me I should consider a major I could handle, like (as per his suggestion) dance. There’s got to be a reason I hate all my classes right? There’s got to be a reason I consequently suck at them right?
I’ve never felt so inadequate and like a complete failure in my life.
AND i’m pretty sure your major/career choice/ future life...
I’ve got a life to start living…and guess what? You’re not in it!!! :)
BONJOUR! →
Mass pillow fights in paris-now, this is really living! This time next year?
oh, the irony
I have been thinking lately how ironic the order of our life is. We start out of the womb in pure bliss, unaware of how perfect our lives are. We live free of stress, of worry, of concept of comparison. We live in joy, we create joy with our innocent smiles and unconstrained laughter. Children of the woods, we make the globe infinitely better with our imaginary worlds and unabated dreams.
And...
These lips have been on sabbatical FAR too long
Nothing emerges more directly and more genuinely from the very depths of our...

The Virgin Suicides
It only took me six months to finish this piece, probably because I don’t have any free time anymore, and if I do have free time, all I want to do is numb my body and mind by watching something on my instant netflix. But as my self-important macro economics professor would say, “But, I digress…”
In sum, I loved this book. I watched the film first, and despite the horrific...
