the walls kept falling down

on the city that we loved.


January 22nd. One week, one day has flown by. I want to embrace every single day.

I don't want to be destructive because I know it's only for myself. I don't want to be so hardened by fear of loss and pain that I ruin what has been great all this time.

and endurance produces character, and character produces hope

2012

I always win.

I am delayed on my reflection of 2012. It feels like it never ended. That's how every year feels.

But 2012, when I really think about it, man I just get excited.
I went to New York for the first time IN MY WHOLE LIFE!! I went to New England ^_______^ twice.

I ran in a 10 miler, worked my first full time job, paid rent, lived on my own, upped my dress game, liked summer and finished the Harry Potter series.

graduated college.

my whole life is ahead of me, and while right now I seem stuck, God has already opened and provided so many doors. mmmmm which to chose.
It really was a year. Here's to 2013 and all of it's promises.

you know you love me. xoxo gossip girl

Do you ever wonder what your friends say when you're not around?
You know how you analyze others with your other friends? But once you are not with them, you have a feeling that they are saying things to other friends about you. You know how you have all of the negative things about your friends built in your head and when they commit them you think, "oh my friend, how typical of you is this?"
Have you stopped to think what those negative things about you that everyone else is aware of?
I could name a few of my own, probably.
This is also called gossip.

It's not a good feeling, and it really is not something that I am new to. No one is.

I think I'd rather have someone tell me to my face what they think about me. I think I would have them do it in a respectful way, too. Not in a blunt, in your face, in front of everyone type of way.


Where is class?

Just as a once and great man said,


 

I ain't Mike Jones, keep my name out of your mouth.

second anchor line

here he is!
Meet Milo. 1996, a lot of miles, but still going strong. Beep beep, I'm a truck owner.












It's been a long journey with a lot of flat tires and bad transmissions, but in the end it worked out. To the glory.

I've been relaxing and bathing. And there's this song, you may have heard of it. But there is a line and it goes like this like: when I look into my nephew's eyes. Man you wouldn't believe, the most amazing things, that can come from some terrible lies.

you chewed me up and spit me out

Albert Einstein “If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.”

here's the key to the ignition

cars. hate them. love them. gotta have them, barely live without them.

1997 Jetta
I almost had this puppy at the beginning of the semester. But, the guy was selling it for 900 and that was way over my limit at that point.














90 Honda Accord
This guy was almost mine for 700 dollars, until the girl was not ready to sell it yet. Boo, I was literally upset.












1997 Jetta
That is when I went back to this guy. The guy dropped the price by a lot. However, God is on my side and a random young cowboy went with me to look at it, and the tranny is going bad. Too bad because I totally would have been all over this. JETTA'S are my dream car. LOVE.











Then goes a list of random craiglists.
Until, by the grace, I found her. Or him. I haven't even met the fella yet, but my mom went and looked at a 94 cav.

 Now I can take you to your best friend's house.
