Resolutions a month early

I've got to take better care of my body, mind and image. I havent gotten completely off track, but I could use a little upkeeping.


Then again, this has selfish, jealous motivations.

Photo update since September

I wore these flats on the first rainy day I got back just to discover that one of the soles was COMPLETELY ripped out and the other was almost there.



Teresa and Michaela's travel buddies from Australia came to visit for a few weeks and Martyn cooked us this delicious Thai dish. He had marinated the beef in beer and few other things. Honestly the best marinated meat I've ever had.



Totally obsessed with the hand tattoo.




My best friend is away in Denmark and missing her candy... So my friend and I sent her three pounds worth!


In recent news, I moved to an apartment with four girls. The place has a LOT of potential.. it's just a matter of agreeing on what is going to happen and staying on a student's budget.
Also, I feel completely confused on how I am coming off to other people. When I don't act like myself and become reclusive, I'm unhappy and well, not myself. But when I am myself, I give off the wrong impression and attract unwanted attention and get myself into stupid situations. Can't I just be myself and form awesome friendships and nothing else?

apparently not.

Last thing I ever want to do is become dependant on someone

really diet coke, it's not you, it's me.

Expanding my "favorite resturant" list

Flowers is in the top three for sure. I didn't even have enough room to try everything. I'll probably make it back there for my birthday lunch next week.


Where did time go? Out the window, the second story window....

Mixed drink of the week

strong green tea + fresca = yummy health drink?

Election countdown: 8days

I thought I'd be more excited about election day because I thought there would be weekly student debates but I haven't heard about a single event. Though it'd be a nice thing to assume, I know the campus isn't all voting for Obama. Let's start some arguments!


What has gotten me really excited is not only is this MY first year voting, it is almost my father's. He has taken a stand and actually participating in US politics. That's not very ordinary of him. Unfortunately, my vote isn't holding too strong because my vote will cancel out of my fathers which leaves Mccain dominating my house. Thankfully my neighbors know better.


Since no one else around me seems to be doing a whole lot, I have taken upon myself to email my parents once a day until Election day with only one reason (per day) about why they should reconsider. That's only 8 reasons out of many that I have to choose!

Wish me luck.

Every Single 2008 Nobel Laureate Endorses Obama

An open letter to the American people by some of the brightest minds in the world. A very poignant message. You'd think they'd at least use official stationary!
