i feel like i should have so much to say to you people out here in Livejournal Land. i've been feeling lots of things lately. i'm in one of those moods where writing in coherent paragraphs just isn't going to work, so i'm just going to list what's [been] on my mind. it's likely to be scattered and disconnected, but i've sort of felt that way for a bit. i'm working on getting my feet back firmly on the ground...but i digress.
- listen to The Cardigans. just do it. don't question me, just do it.
- i've fallen in love with yoga. i've even gotten myself a 2-month membership to yogaworks. i do it 3 times a week, and i absolutely adore it. i'm making a conscious decision to stick with the practice and make it a part of my life. it's really helped me with my breakup with Chris. well, mostly. i kind of backslid this weekend...i miss him. yoga helps me focus on more important things, like inner peace (seriously, i know it sounds cheesy) and keeping myself healthy. though even though my smoking/drinking has subsided, i'm pretty sure there is no cure for my mouth full of Sweet Teeth.
- my cats are so absolutely wonderfully adorable. i dont even care if this makes me a cat lady. they're my babies and i love them. right now, loseph is cuddling my left knee, looking at me with his big glassy blue semi-crossed eyes and its just really sweet. i loves him. and siren...wherever he is.
- today was my last day at Aveda! hellooo freedom! goodbye shitty retail, asshole customers, clueless tourists, poorly located bathrooms, and most excellent discount! i will miss my ladies though...i'll just go visit. em still works there, so i'll have an excuse to a) still get the stuff at a discount and b) go see my friends :)
- em is all moved in, woot! glad to have her back, i missed her. she shall be a good roommate. its just going to be like living with a sister, just as living with jenna was like that.
- speaking of which, jenna and [one of her best friends] serena are moving into the apartment next door! i'm 4D, she'll be in 4E. how awesome. i'm stoked. she almost retracted her decision to move in and i was TOTALLY bummed, but she decided to stick with it, and i'm SO happy she did. i wasn't really ready to stop having her around. but i'm DEFINITELY ready to get her shit out of the apartment, my bedroom is ENTIRELY bed!
- now the em is in and jenna is out, i have jenna's old bedroom, which i didnt realize was so big! it'll be even bigger once her bed and other stuff is out of her (because she's moving next door, i told her she could keep it here). i can't wait for it to be all my own, it's going to be killer. and emily is really awesome with that whole "interior decorating" stuff, so she'll definitely help me out with sprucing up and whatnot. i have a desk that needs some sprucing, i plan on conning her into helping me...hehehe.
- bron has been here for a few days. looks like she may be leaving though. lots of factors, all of which are valid: hard time finding a job, tight financial situation, homesick...all signs point to relocating. i think she's going to spend some time in Jacksonville in the Evergreen casa for a bit. i'm sad to see her go, she's like the big sister i never had, but she has to do what's best for her. ::le sigh::
- i have these silly things in my ears right now
as i need to stretch my ears a little bit more (apparently) before i can FINALLY put in my new gorgeous jewelry. they're the largest size, and in the black/white swirl. they're pretty, but fucking a, they're large and obnoxious looking. i look like i listen to Powerman 5000 and take E on the weekends. what i REALLY want to be wearing is these beauties
i got them all in 1/2", which is where i'm just about at, but since they're flared and the flares are bigger than 1/2", i need to stretch a little bit more to be able to get them in. which is really annoying, because i look ridiculous and my parents are totally going to make fun of me when i go home on tuesday night...
- I'M GOING HOME ON TUESDAY!!! only through thursday night, because i'm only working 2 days at Artist Arena this week (poop on a stick). i miss my parents SOOO MUCH. i havent seen them since may. i'm soooooooooo excited to see them, i didnt think i was going to until the end of july. WOO! YAY MOMMY AND DADDY!!!
- i need a tan. i have yet to get to the beach. summer goals: get tan. get tan at the beach. go to beach at least twice. go to Coney Island as there is no excuse for being a 5-year NYC resident and not going to C.I.
- yo, my hair could take longer to grow out? geez...
i think my brain is done now.
