I can't wait to see The Decemberists tomorrow!
Tuesday evening, I am going to see The Decemberists in concert at The Sound Academy in Toronto with my boyfriend and I couldn’t be more excited! I have been listening to them for around eight months now and they have quickly become one of my favorite bands. I have heard that they are excellent live so I am going into this with pretty high expectations. And after the concert, we are staying...

I really want some speakers for my record player.
I wish I could listen to my vinyls at a higher volume. After a certain point, the speakers that are built in just become fuzzy and the music doesn’t sound very good. I’m not even sure if I could hook them up but I think if I had separate speakers, it would allow me to listen to them louder.
I am going to look into this.

My sister is supposed to come up and visit me this weekend at school but supposedly, there is going to be this huge storm and she may not be able to get out of the airport. I really want her to be here; we haven’t really had time to talk much the past couple weeks because of our hectic schedules so I was really looking forward to this visit. I hope that the weather cooperates and she can get...

The Tides Have Changed!
So I got my panties all in a bunch for nothing! It turns out I don’t have to work on Saturday (after listening to a suprirsing voicemail this morning from work.) And I’m not scheduled for Sunday or Monday, not to mention the rest of the week.
Now I have the whole weekend to relax, catch up on schoolwork and just live.
I can’t wait.
I am honestly ashamed that Snooki is a New York...
comeponderwithme:
Think about this people, please. Do you know how hard some authors work to become a serious author, to even have a book edited and published? What ever happened to the Ernest Hemingways, William Shakespeares, Jane Austens, Mark Twains? This girl just tans all the time, drinks her ass off, has tons of sex and runs around cursing. There is nothing special about her. She has...

So I found out that I don't have class on Monday...
along with no class on Friday which means… I have a four day weekend.
I wish I could be excited about this prospect but I know I am going to be working every single day and that fact is just completely crushing me.
I already know I am working
Friday 5-10
Saturday 1-6
And I’m not positive about this yet but
Sunday probably 8-2
Monday probably 5-10.
I highly suspect that I am...

Today, I had lunch with my boyfriend's family
and I had a genuinely great time. We all had lunch, I cooked in the kitchen with his mom and aunt, I chatted with his dad and watched T.V. with his little brother. It was a nice afternoon. I love how cozy and relaxed his home is- I was at the point where I really didn’t want to leave to go to work today. I would have been content to stay planted in my spot on the couch, by the fire, eating...

So today, I received sea monkeys as a Christmas...
And it was probably one of the greatest gifts ever.
I never had sea monkeys when I was a child so the fact that I finally get to birth them and watch them grow is quite exciting to me.
Tomorrow, I will hatch my monkeys. And it will be glorious.

M: Well that's always been my goal.
C: What has?
M: To make you realize how amazing you are.
I love vegetables so much.
Nothing is better than biting into a crisp, fresh green pepper.
Nothing.

I was such a house-wife today.
I did four loads of laundry, I cleaned my whole apartment, I baked cookies, I baked and decorated a cake for my friend’s birthday, not to mention made a pot roast that came out pretty bangin’ for dinner.
And I wore an apron the whole time.
I’m a fucking bamf.
I know.

I've been so busy the past couple of days.
I haven’t had time to talk to basically anyone in my family.
I haven’t had time to listen to my new records.
I haven’t had time to listen to much music period.
I haven’t had any time to daydream and put my thoughts together.
Instead, I’ve been-
Attending classes.
Running around getting ready for my still life shoot.
In the kitchen cooking like a mad women.
...
Pissed.
I agreed to pick up my friend from the airport tonight because she didn’t have a ride home and I just found out her flight has been delayed an hour already. Now she won’t be getting in until 12:51 in the morning. Fuck my life.
Why can’t I say no to people? Her flight was already getting in late to begin with and I have a feeling it is just going to keep being delayed.
Ughh.
