look up, toward the stars.
do you have a “list” of sorts, composed of things you wish to do while you’re alive and kickin’? the whole idea of creating a bucket list seems like a phenomenon that has become increasingly popular over the past decade or two. i don’t know how i feel about making a “bucket list” persay, because you end up focusing on the “do before you...

for the love of the game
In the years before I went to college, I would have undoubtedly declared myself a football fan. My grandfather was a hall of fame coach, my dad was a hall of fame player, and I was lucky enough to have a brother to cheer on at our high school games. I’ve always been immersed in the game and was taught the in’s & out’s of football at a young age. In high school, I...

i woke up this morning with the feeling that fall is quickly approaching. which means….football, ya’ll. i’m getting pumped for this season. in fact, i wore my jersey around the house the other day, just because. if you’re excited too, print this SEC full schedule. of course, i’ll be cheering on the tide, (they are going to dominate this season) but follow whomever...

leather pants & lasting memories.
i love how some songs have the ability to take us back to a certain place, time, or special memory. songs can become representative of special moments with special people-markers of time and place. this seems to be happening to me more and more often. i love hearing a song and being transported back to a certain memory or fun time in life…
this morning, i heard journey on the radio. for...

think for yourself.
in my college world literature class, i was exposed to so many authors and books from around the world- books that had been translated from foreign language to english. this was such a captivating topic of study, because we were able to gain so much knowledge about each culture and the country where the story was based. one of my favorite books was norwegian wood, by haruki murakami. i came...

imprinted on my heart.
”When you find something like this that speaks to your heart, it gives you the courage to look beyond your own problems and take the first small steps to try as an individual to make an impact.”
One of the biggest hopes I have for my life, is to be able to leave the world knowing that I helped to make another persons’ a little easier. As cliche as it may sound, I do hope to make a...

acu-ouch!
friends—have any of you tried acupuncture? i tried it last week for the first time and am now going to be a regular client. it was awesome. and pain-free! if the thought of tiny needles being poked all over your body doesn’t sound entice you, fear not. i can assure you that it is not an uncomfortable feeling, at all. in fact, it’s incredibly relaxing and a wonderful stress...

peonies are my fav.
what’s your favorite flower? i think i have too many favorites to choose just one. when i was a little girl, i would buy cans of wild flowers and throw the seeds all throughout our flowerbeds. they would often take over the landscaping and grow like crazy, but they were so beautiful. my love for flowers started at a very young age. i love so many for different reasons, but i have always...

coffee & cute accents
there’s something about a british accent on any guy that is incredibly attractive (and possibly, downright sexy). is it the “prince william syndrome” that consumes most of the female american population? or does an accent just make someone seem much more foreign and unfamiliar? who knows. however, i am not ashamed to say that i am a fan of a great accent. it can make an ordinary...
