aspiration

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
- Dale Carnegie


I think i'd like to have this quote framed and hung somewhere.Somewhere that i can see it daily; perhaps my new walk in closet ;)

What You Make It

The world is what you make it.

If you think positively, the world is a happy & beautiful place.

Think negatively & you will live in a very sad & scary world.

Just some thoughts for you on a Friday.

Finish up the summer cheerfully and leave yourself w/ fond memories; those are the only ones worth remembering, right?

Photobucket

How cute is this?

My friend Jen is getting married next July & she got these awesome save the date magnets here at Terrill's Tiles on etsy.

I can't wait to put it on my new fridge in my new apartment! hehe

Aren't these original?

I've never seen a save the date this cute.

practice makes perfect

"If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion."
- Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama

This quote make's me think of another; "If you want to have a good friend, be a good friend."

Happy Wednesday everyone!
The weeks going by quickly for me; how bout you?

fun news

I've just found out that Kate Hudson & Ginnifer Goodwin are filming a movie based on the book Something Borrowed!

I think they are absolutely perfect for these roles.

This may be old news but its new news to me!

I heart Ginnifer Goodwin & Something Borrowed is one of my favorite books.

Speaking of Ginnifer Goodwin, I CAN NOT WAIT for Big Love to start up again!!!

Did you like this book?

Are you as excited about the movie as I am?

to me......

love is



being silly



listening



understanding



compromising



empathy



doing crossword puzzles together on the plane ride



being ridicoulously excited about what the future holds



having nicknames for each other that other people think are absolutely ridiculous :)



love is when your girlfriend strolls into the bathroom & decides to take a poop while your in the shower; it's when you only get slighty annoyed. i can't believe i just wrote this; hope your not so completely grossed out that you decide to stop reading my blog!



love is cuddling up in bed with your girlfriend & the laptop, excited & just about to check out some paint colors for your future apartment. It's when her best friend calls and they end up on the phone for an hour.Its when the call ends way to late & its time for you to go to sleep so paint color choosing will have to wait. It's not minding one bit, knowing she hasn't had a chance to catch up with her friend in awhile. Love is wanting her to be happy, always.



love is not minding that when he gets together with his brother they turn into rowdy eight year olds, it's thinking it's cute. (most of the time)

love is when it's no big deal that your over an hour late to see the flugtag you were really excited about, because she CAN NOT leave LA without having pumpkin pancakes at the griddle

love is previously "disliking" cats, but now find it hard to sleep without her cat (squirrel) snuggled up against your legs or feet.

What does love mean to you?
