Valentine's Day
Valentines Day feels silly to me. It’s one day, out of three hundred and sixty-five, that’s nationally recognized as a time to declare your love to someone or show them that you care. What I don’t understand is why we need a day specifically for that purpose when there are so many other days in the year to act like you care? I say the latter with sarcasm, you should care.
It...

a. Girls, if you’re tall, flaunt it. who cares if you’re 5’11 and wear high heels. you are super-hot. Don’t let an insecure guy make you insecure. I don’t know why it makes sense to people that girls only like guys bigger then them, but guys are scared to like girls bigger than them. If you’re over 6’ and have trouble finding a guy, get ahold of me haha.
b. Cut your hair as short as...

What I Learned From Watching Velvet Goldmine
1. Some movies are just magic. Despite the fact that I’m a film junkie and like a million different ones for different reasons, there are two that stand out to me, that have left me in awe: Almost Famous and Velvet Goldmine. I knew instantly I liked the latter when I saw Brian Slade, played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers, getting ready to perform. Excitement filled my chest, as he made his way through...

Alex Karev is one of my favorite characters on Grey’s Anatomy, if not my very favorite. He’s one of the characters that feels the most real to me. He’s inconsistently good and bad, and not really easy to love. He doesn’t know how to treat other people and more often then not, he hurts them. I think he’s a wonderful representation of how some people go through life,...
2012
is what you make of it. I intend to make mine the best year I’ve ever had. I know that it won’t be the best I’ll ever have; there will be better years and better times, but I intend to make it the best that I can. I can and I am willing. I will make changes.

My heart feels so full...
I was playing Nirvana on the way to Chili’s tonight and it just fit so wonderfully. My dinner wasn’t what I ordered, but the waiter was so sweet and so apologetic that it wasn’t a big deal at all. The manager gave me a free dessert and all I can think about is the fact that it feels so funny. Funny like giggling, funny. Funny, because it felt like such a little mistake. Compared...

I'm a grunge dresser (apparently)
I read fairly recently that grunge was coming back and as embarrassing as this is to admit, I was confused about what exactly the style was. I had an idea; I’m a massive Nirvana fan, so my thinking was along the lines of Kurt Cobain and his girl, Courtney Love. Imagine my surprise (or not, I’ve sort of grown to hate that phrase, despite the fact that it’s now finding...

Minimalist Me
I’ve been thinking about minimalism lately. To me, minimalism is about being honest and upfront. It’s the breaking down of things, stripping down and just being. Just. Being. It’s the purest and simplest form of being alive. It’s enjoying what you have and what you’ve been given (like the earth) and focusing on what matters. But, it’s not limited....
