SPARKLES

I love everyone and I hate everyone at the exact same moment. 

It's as if my mind is pulled in two polar opposite directions. I hate mornings and yet I love them. I want to move away to a new city but I stay here and I really do love Salt Lake. Everyone is like this huh? I just need to stop living in my head so much (ah but it's so much fun and enjoyable sometimes! So many possibilities.) 

Here are some things I want to do sometime, found at this great blog: her style diaries . Polar opposite seasons am I right? and I want to do them at the Exact. Same. Moment. (wahaha) okay enough with that, I'm joking.

Today is the most beautiful Sunday. A lot of changes are coming, I'm content with that.

R + J

I watched Baz Lurhamm's Romeo and Juliet today 

(one of my favorites) 

and Spun both have John Leguizamo 

who is phenomenal off-beat actor. 

I also started to build a shrine (to be continued).

I'm obsessed with punk, cluttery, catholic religious art 

put into a pot and mixed together.

November

I have situational depression. Some people in my life close to me know this.

So when I'm sad, unfortunately I'm really sad. 

This week I worked on a puzzle of Dracula and finished it

This might seem creepy but I really love graveyards. 

I've been going recently on Sundays with my friend Sarahjo 

and once upon a time when beautiful Olivia was visiting.

There is something that is so simple and peaceful about them.

Whenever I go on a trip with my family I ask if we can stop when I see a graveyard... 

of course they say no and think it's silly but they calm my nerves and rest my mind.

I felt like the deer there were A. protecting the graveyard or B. spirit animals. 

I think my spirit animal is a deer sometimes.

I was an Indian for Halloween, a boy asked me if I shaved my hair for the costume...

okay...

I'm into Halloween 

but I'm not obsessed.

(Elyse was ----> a flapper and my roommate Milo ---> a cowgirl)

twice in one day.

I used to be in love with this music video 5 years ago.
I thought the girl with the short hair was the cutest and I was willing to chop off my locks if it turned out like that... unfortunately some of us have hair that WONT look like that and it's sad. Today on my lunch break Hannah and Elyse joined me for some eatery and they both kept talking about their short locks and new ways to style it, needless to say I was jealous.

Anyway, if this is a bar... I don't think these kids have past the 9th grade.
...maybe by now.

Fall-oween

*yep, that's me taking out the trash. 

...cool

*our homeless shelter/tree house. 

trust me... this is VERY creepy at night.

Tea exploration.

 

I loveeeeeeeee tea. I work at a Tea Room here in downtown Salt Lake and I've decided to branch out from my usual teas and everyday I work try a new tea. It's going to be hard because I "know what I like" but then again, I could be wrong... like most things. We sell loose leaf teas and my typical favorites are the Beehive Cream and Honey, Vanilla, Raspberry Mint, and Very Berry. Don't get your hopes up, I'm not working today but tomorrow...
tomorrow I will try something new. 

 

 

 

I'm also really into coats with fur and circular glasses.

predictable? I never thought I would see the day I would love circular sunglasses again. 

In 7th grade my first "real" pair of sunglasses were circular because I thought they were cool. 

REALLY circular, small, and blue. 

I was shopping with my grandma and she wanted to buy me whatever pair I choose "to protect my eyeballs of course", 

(I have the sweetest grandma, she takes care of me). I realized that I couldnt wear them often because... 

they were really dorky.

But now, who cares.

the number 5.

Today I learned a tapping meditation, it's pretty cool. I love knowing that old dogs (me) can learn new tricks, that I do have the potential to think about things differently. I live in my head about 80% of the time.

Sometimes it's nice to not think about anything or to focus on one thing.
