farewell february

...and I am off to the lake for the weekend!

happy happy saturday.

american typewriter

"The Evolution of Type"... have you seen this yet? It classifies fonts throughout life. I think I am in the 'typewriter' phase of life? My favorite tag line has to be curlz {my slumber party will be the kewlest} or arial {i cannot believe you use "times new roman" so default of you.} And then it progresses down through serif and sans serif for the art school phases... I am a dork but I love this... and curlz hands down reminds me of drill team. I am positive that I have a zebra print sweatshirt somewhere to prove it.

wowza!

Have you seen the new march j.crew catalog yet??
If you haven't, take a peak online... it is amazing {as usual} and it
 screams springgggg! It is also filled with normal, everyday
 people... they are writers, moms, photographers- just your
stereotypical "muse worthy" soccer mom. Plus every single person
 looks so lovely...and look at that necklace!!!
Its not j.crew... its her own. and its incredible.

i want those yellow shoes and khaki shorts real bad

oh target...

I am going to be honest. I ADORE Target, actually I am obsessed with Target. I love their clothes, shoes, special little products, but I am obsessed with their home decor section.  I stalk their website to see when their new designers are hitting the store. I will admit it... I have an addiction to Target. I even think that I would be perfectly happy working there {just in the store, red shirt and khaki pants.} And if I dont find a job soon... I may end up there. Its not funny... dont laugh.

its the little things

the new 90 calorie baby coca cola

*disclaimer: i have recently tried over and over again to give up my love for americas favorite soft drink... and yes, i have failed every single time. i did actually make it a week at one point but then i gave in [again]. so... i was ecstatic when i discovered this cute little coca cola at the grocery store. its only 90 calories and itty bitty funsize plus coca cola supports the olympics and i love the olympics, which makes me think that i must drink them right now?

snow day [again]

Guess what? Its snowing again... I understand that I may be one of the few people in the world that is not excited about this snowy surprise in Texas but I feel that the end of February in Texas usually means spring. I live in Texas for this very reason...it is one of the reasons that NY and I broke up. I am dreaming of sunshine and sonic drinks with the windows down. Puhlease hurry up spring! And the "spring break section" at Target is not helping this inkling for warmer weather... its my first non florida trip in four years. You would think that at least Texas could cooperate with this issue. Here's to march... may you bring warmth. xoxo

...im just ready for spring and

side braids remind me of spring.

hurry up march!

borrowing Paul's words...

"For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of HIS WILL through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For HE HAS RESCUED us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have REDEMPTION, the forgiveness of sins."
-Colossians 1:9-14

**these words have brought an immense amount of comfort to my life these past few days...it is hard for me to fathom that Paul knew how to perfectly and beautifully pray for the Colossians, without having ever met them... if only I could be as faithful in my prayer life with the people that I live along side daily.

Texas, I will see you in two days!

I will be enjoying mexican food, my friends and my family in TWO DAYS!

Oh Texas... it is really the little things that I am missing

like driving my car and NOT wearing a massive coat, 

gloves, scarf and a million layers everytime I walk outside. 

*and despite the huge crime of fashion that UGG boots have become- 

they will be making a trip to NY on Sunday... I need them in my life.

 I tried to not need them but I do. I am also looking to bring a 

roommate back with me this weekend... any takers?
