unguessed.

i just spent 15 minutes in the shower contemplating some stuff. i'm in a weird mood... i'll call it "unguessed." rhymes with "undressed." meaning: unhappy/guilty/stressed.

i decided to be a little reflective and think about the possible reasons i may be feeling this way:

1. haven't been eating healthy enough lately (my mom says this is very important for feeling well and i agree. bought like, a million healthy things at publix last night though.)

2. fafillion things on my To-Do list.

3. been having violent dreams every night recently and feeling really shitty about them throughout the day.

4. spending way too much money and not feeling guilty about it because i am working woman actually backfires and therefore causes me to feel guilt.

5. i feel ugly.

i then decided to look around and be a little more appreciative of Life Today.. here's what i came up with:

1. MAC nail polish, "Kid Orange."

2. 5 pink lines crossing off to-do's. also, finding all my important documents today.

3. having a boyfriend who makes me laugh this hard, and also who will take me to see THIS MOVIE tonight even though he really, really doesn't want to see it.

4. the best bed ever, even if i don't spend as much time in it as i want to.

5. my mom is back from Italy and i could now chat with her as much as usual. YIPEEEE!!

if you ever feel unguessed, tag yourself with a list of your own 5 things :).

not much of a conventionalist.

i don't like conventionalism!

i just don't.

this includes persons (not naming names) who try so hard to be different that they blend in with all the emos, goths, or other "differents".

i'm going to try really hard to raise my kids right. and "right" to me is allowing them to express themselves, creating their own happiness, and doing the right thing by their own standards. this seems to be an important thing in a world that's trying so hard to make you be like everyone else.

anyways, i'm making this little book type thing. it's about the "rules" that i hope my future kids follow, mainly advice and life lessons that i believe in. here are the first few pages:

rollin' in the dough!!

okay, not really.

but i did get a job! haha.

and hopefully, i'll have enough money at least to support the scrapbooking/ clothes/ bags/ shoes/ travel/ partying obsession.

PS... this actually is *not* my old navy. gotta love google.

oh happy day!

yeah, yeah, i'm italian!

but i am sooo doing it up for st. patty's day anyway!

it's a big deal here at school... we were supposed to go to the pool all day, but it's been chilly. so we went and got banded for the pub and i guess we'll go back sometime later tonight. in between now and then, there are lots of parties to attend :). always such a fun day! off to find something green to wear :)

dear blog, why have i abandoned you?

:( here are some pics from my universal trip. i guess i've been busy traveling and such. i can't wait to be able to post my vaca album! woo! the scenery there is soo inspiring.. so many awesome colors and textures EVERYwhere! :)
