last of days

I'm back! :) Can you believe that there's only 2 days left until 2011?! It's insane! I've been sick for the past couple of days, but I went out into the cold to take some pictures because I was feeling lazy just staying in bed like a little girl. Gotta' credit my cute little nephew for helping snap some shots of me, he's the best. There was definitely a lot of wind action going on today.

      

 I know that plenty of people make resolutions for the new year, and one of my cliché ones is to lose weight, haha :P BUT this year I'm not making a list of things that I need to improve/enhance. I just want to live the year freely and rich of memories that will last me a lifetime. There are times when people feel like January 1st is a reset button on life but the truth of the matter is...you control this imaginary button and can press it whenever you want. Reset all the negativity, anger, hurt...walk forward and achieve everything that makes you beautiful. You don't need a new year for a new resolution. 

As always,

peace and complete love.

simple

( I should really start putting in my lip ring stud instead of just letting my bar peek out, oh the laziness )

It's December 25th 2010 and that means it's Christmas! or any other holiday that you celebrate around this time :) I've been on break for over a week now and find myself wasting time sleeping, a lot! It's time to go make some plans with people and enjoy my city but as strange as this sounds, I feel like I've become really attached to Champaign. Weird. Anyways, another thing that struck me as odd was that my capitalistic hunger was not in full effect this holiday season. I, actually, didn't ask for anything so there were no presents underneath the tree for me or anyone else in this family. We just go to the mall, pick up what we want and we call it a day- and this year, me and my sister didn't even pick up anything crazy...two shirts, at most and some makeup, haha. I guess that's when it hit me that I have everything I want and need. Relief. I still need to wrap my bestie's gift(s)/birthday present(s)- it's been a long time since I've seen her!

Om nom nom time and then off to read a book or something intellectual, haha.

studio beats

(My roommate and friend MinJoo snapped this photo of me on my bed around September/October)

Finally finished finals! and you know my advice for pulling through it? A good pair of headphones!

I'm happy I invested in these bad boys (they're the Studio Beats by Dr. Dre if you were wondering...pictured). If I could, I'd run out and buy everyone a pair so that they can see I'm not crazy when I'm jammin' out too hard to them. They got me through endless papers, study guides, books, days of not sleeping, etc. 

Once I re-energize, a real thoughtful post will come through, but for now, live off the beats or die from the dancin' :)

clean it up

I need to get my hair shaven again. It grows out so fast!

Back to studying for finals.
