*Oh, happily ever after...

wouldn't you know, wouldn't you know.
Oh, skip to the ending, who'd like to know, I'd like to know.
Author of the moment, can you tell me, do I end up, do I end up happy?*

the best monday i've had in a while :)

today i went to target and bought NOTHING. considering all the cute new spring dresses they had - this is a pretty big accomplishment for me! :)

i'm waiting on fed ex to bring me my 3rd phone since i bought a new one in september. if this one breaks like the other two...i might throw a tiny little temper tantrum.

easter sunday will be the first day in 3 weeks (weekday or weekend) where i have not had to work for at least a couple hours at one of my jobs. life is too busy.

i did nothing to fix my hair after showering today. i realized i have a whole lot more natural wave in my hair than i ever thought i did.

the heat has been off and the windows of my apartment have been open for maybe close to a week now. i could not ask for better weather!

march madness is out of control. i'll never change my mind about this.

why don't you by ingram hill - currently listening to this song on repeat. not sure why i like it so much...but i do!

i've got to start working out again.

sams club = the place to go for cupcakes. seriously.

todays newspaper jumble was completed in under a minute. love when it happens that way.

"holding a grudge is like continuously sipping poison and expecting the other person to get sick" -
stumbled across this quote today - how true it is.

The past two years I have participated in the SPCA Dog Walk hosted by the Wake County SPCA and I've decided again this year to sign up and start a team with some friends! The SPCA continues to rescue and improve the lives of many homeless pets in the area and I am thrilled to be apart of the work that they are doing.

Any size gift, big or small is TAX-DEDUCTIBLE, will definitely help us in reaching our goal and is much appreciated! :) Please use the link above or below to visit my individual page or my team page and sponsor me! You can even sign up to participate with us!

If you prefer, donations can also be mailed in to the address listed below! When mailing donations, please also print and include the donation form that can be found at the bottom of my personal page.

Anything you are able to give will surely help - it all adds up!

i wish...

i wish time would slow down, just a little bit. i wish i took more pictures. i wish i could visit the beach. i wish people were less self-centered, myself included. i wish everyone always spelled everything right. i wish the way i lived my life was a better witness for Christ. i wish there were more guarantees and less 'what ifs'. i wish my papap and grandma lived closer. i wish i knew what every word meant. i wish i got to play with more puppies. i wish people said exactly what they were thinking more often. i wish i could travel more. i wish i could eat cheesecake brownie ice cream non-stop and gain no weight. i wish i was more burdened for and bold with those who are lost. i wish i spent more time outside. i wish i saw my sister and my nephews more. i wish i could stay up later and not be so tired. i wish i could snap my fingers and my house would be clean. i wish no ones feelings ever got hurt. i wish laughter was considered an acceptable workout. i wish i didn't worry so much.

friidddaayyy

state beat duke at home this week, and i was there to see it! go PACK! sometimes, i feel like the older i get, the less i know about who i am and what i want - shouldn't it be the opposite? i'm not ready for a new dog just yet, but i have started exploring the options of a small dog next. boxers are still my favorite but i think a shih tzu might also be in my future. call me crazy, but i'm signing up for the kk challenge...should be interesting. sometimes people talk too much...sometimes i talk too much. my trip to boone is only a week away and oh how i so need to get out of raleigh! interlocking fingers while holding hands is way more my favorite than the other way. wikihow has an article on how to hold hands - true story. community = absolutely hilarious tv show! i'm so ready for cute summer dresses.

the weekend has finally arrived!

A New Year, A New You...

....or new me! :)

Resolutions aren't really my thing. I don't have any, nor do I plan to come up with any. Sure, I want to be better about some things, okay, a lot of things, this year - but I don't need to make a list to know what they are!

I'm making changes, I've already started - and that's what's most important! And I hope you will too! :)


Things I'm Excited about RIGHT NOW!

1) The Bachelor - Okay, so Jake's a tool, everyone knows it...but I just can't help being addicted to this show! I'm excited to see what happens and I'm certain I will be googling the end result in the next few weeks! I promise not to spoil it for anyone! :)

2) The Amazing Race - I've never watched this show, but rumor has it that Jeff and Jordan, my absolute favorites, from the last season of Big Brother will be competing and that reason alone is enough to make excited about it starting!

3) Thursday - which means tomorrow is Friday and that is the WEEKEND!!! :)

4) Boone - We're planning another Boone trip for the end of this month and since the last one was so much fun, I'm sure this one will be a blast as well! Most importantly, I'm going to need there to be a lot of snow!

5) Technology - So I've apparently been way behind the rest of the world BUT, I now have iTunes and I can now also create my very own AWESOME ringtones for free. *Shout-out* to my "secret" friend, Stephen Smith for this! :P


Life is good!
