j'ai la peau en porcelaine, ou donc mes amies me disent

Things have been a little crazy lately, so my blog has been put on the bottom of my list of things to do.

I am so lucky because I have the best family EVER! They came to visit for Casey's graduation this past weekend {you can see a better update of that on my sisters blog}. We are always looking for the best burger and these ones from "Five Guys" were absolutely delicious!

It's earth day!!

How coincidental that I made sure to bring my camera today so after work I could take some pictures of those lovely blossoms and magnolias {the ones I blogged about yesterday} by the moa?!

Happy Earth day!


{Aren't they glorious?! They smelled delicious as well. I highly recommend taking a stroll over there}


{Also, Munir just directed me to this. I liked it. I have been out of the music loop for a while.}

this is glorious

things that bring joy to my life--the list:

*the blossom trees by the moa
*the glorious smell of fresh flowers on my walk home from work
*the anticipation for the best family in the world to come visit!
*secrets and daydreams
*this song {the video isn't too bad either. heh}
*the upcoming sytycd season! {I am so anxious}

things that bring joy to my life--the pictures:
{fresh flowers brooke brings home, pumpkin cookies with frosting, fantastic parties, breanna's obsession with zach efron, sitting outside on a warm day eating with my girls}

rêver de toi




















Whenever it rains I want to listen to chill music and that means Jason Mraz {but I usually always want to listen to him. heh}. Classes ended today so I should be studying for finals, but instead I am just relaxing to the sounds of Jason. Keep it up Jason.

It's kind of sad when old friendships die due to change, neglect, being busy, or whatever it may be. I went to a double bridal shower tonight for my old roommate {what's with it being the season of engagement!?!??! Geez. But that is another story}. I saw the girls that I used to hang out with. We had some fun times back then and they were all great friends of mine. It was nice to catch up with them. It's just interesting because our lives just keep going even though we part ways. We are all growing, changing, learning. I feel like I know those girls, but not really. I can't really describe it. It was just an interesting dynamic.

So right now I am just ready for a change.

{i do not like posting more than once a day, but i had to!}

sleeping in + pajamas all day + two delicious breakfasts + absolutely no homework + spiritual rejuvenation + best friends + adventures = best weekend ever!

















{sorry that this video is sideways and zoomed in, but it just adds character!}

"we need people in our lives with whom we can be as open as possible. to have real conversation with people may seem like such a simple, obvious suggestion, but it involves courage and risk." ~ thomas moore

for now

I want to give a sweet update of the weekend happenings, but for now I will give you this link {which I found here} Can she be any more glamorous?!

celebrate the malleable reality

I am ready to soak up all the spiritual knowledge I can this weekend.
I need it. It will be so fantastic!

Hopefully I will have a big update on all the weekend happenings
