The Beacon

 
 You say your time has come,
You're tired of waking up.
Don't be obscene, i can't conceive of
Living without you.

You say you drag us down,
No one should want you now.

When i start to cry, you kiss my eyes and say
i'm not allowed to. 

i dont believe in blogging emotions or feelings. i keep a lot to myself. i guess for that, i just might always be some sort of mystery. 

Today i discovered Diane Birch and she is charming, however those are not her lyrics.

Goodbye February

 

Say hello to MetroMint Water. It is delicious :)
February is so short, but i think it is for good reason. The month has never been utterly amazing.. Probably because its always cold when you want it to be warm. Either way, its over and March sparks some raging hope of warmer weather, and i'd like to bring out the indian boots again with some dresses.

This weekend i discovered a restaurant off of Bardstown Rd called The Dragon Kings Daughter. They have a food happy hour everyday from 3-6 pm (including weekends) where you can get $2 Japanese Tacos. These tacos are a party in your mouth. Whenever i feel that i am poor, i will eat there everyday between these times. TDKD also offers sushi and pizzas on the special as well, for just as cheap. Awesome discovery.

One more thing. i believe that when using the letter i in regards to yourself, that it shouldn't always have to be capitalized, simply because i am just not a fan. If you haven't noticed..

Blue Skies

 

So i've decided to apply for an internship with TOMS shoes. 

This could be an absolutely amazing experience for me if i am actually accepted.. Possibly one of my biggest accomplishments thus far. Actually, there would be no question.. :). I am infatuated with their passion, as well as their product, so... now im spending all of my minutes of the day wondering how i can somehow make myself stick out above thousands of people who quite possibly could be cooler, more talented, and more creative than me, haha. The only thing i know for sure, above everything, is that i am completely deserving of this. i just need to help the company see that. i know i need to organize something and get more involved in my university, so im looking into creating a TOMS campus club as well as hosting a style your sole party. the whole idea of this is somewhat nerve racking because it includes some intense responsibility...but heck, why not? 

 

Until then :).

Here's Looking At You, Kid

i need to finish my goals..
i havent really been doing what ive set out to do. Mainly because my mind goes everywhere and what i planned on doing never ends up being what i do. i know that might not make sense to anyone, but i know what im talking about.
in a perfect world, God would be walking next to me telling me exactly what he wants me to do: step by step. life is definitely not. that. way.
i just know that if it gets to be a year and a half from now and im still in the same situation, im going to punt myself.


on an optimistic note: lets just say that wont happen.

oh, where is my monday in march?

Find You Waiting


today, as i was driving to an eclectic local shop for some gear, an organization was being discussed on the radio that pleased me: twloha. if you dont know what that stands for, you can look it up. its worth the effort. anyways, i remember when i first heard about them and what they were doing for youth and young adults across the nation- saving lives through informing others of depression, addiction, and suicide. man, that group really gave me hope in so much. myself. my peers. the world.. i heard about them when i needed some faith, and it was inspiring. it was nice to think of how far ive come from where ive been while listening to this particular radio conversation and it was even nicer knowing how much twloha has grown and conquered a very large war. theres something beautiful about people growing, even through pain.. because you achieved a goal. maybe one that you didnt want to ever have to set or maybe one you were forced into, but you made it through and it gives you a story. i feel accomplished, even if i havent really done much. i guess if anything, its because im finally going somewhere.
this weekend i was supposed to go visit a friend out of town and have a night out. however, extra school work and not getting hired for a job i was after has led me to stay in the city. it was disheartening to not receive the job at first.. the reasoning was because my school schedule interfered with the company's training session i would have to go through, which is understandable. i see it as an opportunity though. because even though i might be slowly running out of money and bills due at the first of the month are creeping in, i get to think about what else id like to see myself doing. maybe pick an even cooler place to work than where i had originally planned and meet some amazing people that i wouldnt otherwise. things like that make it good to have a more positive outlook on things and i know if it wasnt for my own growth, i wouldnt be that way. i welcome the hardships of job searching and attending school...because its helping me write the next chapter in my story.
*shout out*
i have to thank my friends for where i am now. if it wasnt for them, their love for me, and putting up with me while the world trampled and the devil knocked continuously on my door, who knows who or where id be. they are who have taught me how to love. no relationship has been that, just my friends and even my family. complete awesomeness, so thanks :)

Forgive Me, Love


this is my first post. i needed a guide, some inspiration in life, that could give me the confidence that i needed to create a better day. a better path. your own words can bring the best insight (at least thats what id like to think), so why not listen and pay attention? i am interested in bettering myself physically and mentally, so there might be a lot of talk about food and exercise (or lack there of) as well as daily frustrations and happiness. either way, its all up from here.
so here it goes...
