David Gray - This Year's love


If I had to choose a song that best fits my life at this moment, it would be this one. I absolutely love it!! :)


This year's love had better last
Heaven knows it's high time
I've been waiting on my own, too long
When you hold me like you do
It feels so right, oh now
Start to forget how my heart gets torn
When that hurt gets thrown
Feeling like I can't go on.
Turning circles time again
Cut like a knife, oh now
If you love me got to know for sure
Cuz it takes something more this time
Then sweet, sweet lies, oh now
Before I open up my arms and fall losing all control
Every dream inside my soul
When you kiss me on that midnight street
Sweep me off my feet
Singin at this life so sweet?
This year's love had better last.......

Adorable and the waitress


So the other night (Wednesday night), the BoyF and I had supper at Outback. Love that place, anyway, the funniest thing happened. We sit down, order our drinks, and the waitress starts telling my bf what a sweet baby face he has (while laughing and touching his shoulder of course) hahaha! I'm not the jealous type, so I don't think anything by it. Then....well, here's our convo when I see her in the restroom. LOL

Waitress: I didn't offend your company when I told him he has a baby face, did I?
Me: Oh no, he gets that everywhere we go.
Waitress: Awww! Is he your boyfriend?
Me: Yes
Waitress (while completely ignoring that I just said YES): He is sooo adorable, and I just love his dimples.
Me: Yeah, I know right.

Haha :) that's my man. Me and him got a kick out of it. And now Ive started telling him how adorable he is lol!!

Bf, cheddars, and signs

Last night...finally got to see the bf on a week day. Since his new job, we haven't been able to. And I almost forgot how much I love those dates. They're really the bestestest, they just make my week better. It was so nice. We had dinner at cheddars, which is quickly becoming my favorite place. We shared an order of onion rings, fried chicken salad (ohh highly recommended) and the monster cookie. Mmmyum! Then we relaxed and watched Signs, with Mel Gibson.
This morning: I woke up feeling great and ready to take on the day!

Tonight: is definitely gonna be a movie night.

Stolen gps and Thankful Thursday


1. Last night...I watched American Idol with mom. We like to make fun of Haley. She needs to go! So full of herself!
2. This morning...started off rough. I realized someone stole my gps out of my car! So. Not. Cool. I last remember seeing it 2 days ago. I'm thinking it happened at my apartment Tuesday night, or while I was in Verizon, or at kroger. Ugh! Makes me maaaad (think. happy. thoughts)
3. Today I feel...(after my frustration went away) hopeful. I got a positive email this am :-)
4. Tonight...I'm seeing BoyF. Looking really forward to it.

Hope everyone is having a lovely Thursday.

Ps. This Thursday I'm thankful for: the email I received this morning, my purse or nothing too valuable being in my car when the thief took my gps, another year to have my sweet precious pup frank, only one more week of school, and the BoyF of course.

Happy Wednesday

"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it." - Groucho Marx

5. Sometimes it's ok to walk out of a restaurant right after ordering *haha*!

8. Mother's Day was a lot of fun with the boyfriend and his family (Angelo's had the most delicious Mother's Day dinner, mmmm).

Thankful Thursday

Actually my mom and I were talking just this afternoon about what a good year this has been for me... so much to be thankful for!


  • #1. Boyfriend - I always have to mention him, because he is such a big healthy part of me. He came into my life at EXACTLY the right time.

  • #2. Bf's big job - Even though I've been torn in two different directions through the whole process, I'm so thankful that he got a job that makes him happy and that he is so passionate about. I've been a pretty proud girlfriend this week haha! ;)

  • #3. Independence- So happy I've always been the independent type, cause it's really going to come in handy haha!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful blessed week!

hair obsession

Currently, I'm soooo over my hair. And a little obsessed with finding a pretty spring/summer hair color (and style). Anyway, as I was browsing online, I found this picc of Keira Knightley. I really like the color, but I LOVE the length and style of her hair here. This is exatly what I want. But of course, it never goes like that right? haha!

so long April...

Adios April, been nice knowing yah! If I could sum up that month in one word, I would have to say FOOTBALL! Good thing I like it. ;) Cause it has consumed my life, my relationship with the boyfriend, and all my conversations with my brothers *big laughs*


And now May has finally arrived! :))))) I have waited for this month for sooooo long! Because this means that school is almost out! It's been a rough one. So needless to say, this month I'm ready to wind it down, look for a job for next year, work out hard, and be on summer break! Of course, I don't know if football will let up this month...but I don't think that will ever happen haha!
