I know that love is mean and love hurts...

I've got such a girl crush on LANA DEL REY.

I've been listening to her music nonstop.

Her voice sounds so classic and dreamy. She's a glamorous beauty.

She's my current obsession.

Rediscovering happiness, one day at a time.

2012-01-10T11:40:00.000-06:00

Hello 2012! The future looks so bright.

2012-01-03T11:19:00.000-06:00

Multi tasking, feeling free, rocking on, daydreaming of frolicking down the street with a panda bear, absorbing the beautiful sights of this earth, and searching for my true love.

Halloween is CREEPIN' in...

2011-10-25T18:22:00.000-05:00

Dream of paradise.

2011-10-19T18:47:00.000-05:00

Keep smiling.

2011-10-18T11:39:00.000-05:00

"Its bringing me down, I know, I've got to let it go & just enjoy the show... I want my money back!"

2011-09-04T10:20:00.000-05:00

"I'm a fool out of love, cause I just can't get enough."

I'm an idealist...

HANDS DOWN, I'M TOO PROUD FOR LOVE.

2011-08-31T16:05:00.000-05:00

BUT WITH EYES SHUT, IT'S YOU I'M THINKING OF.

In a million years, he'll find me.

ALL WE NEED IS LOVE, LUCK, A LITTLE BIT OF FRESH AIR, SOME SUNSHINE, & MOST IMPORTANTLY, FAMILY <3

HAPPY FRIDAY!

All I wanted to be was a million miles from here...

2011-02-23T15:28:00.001-06:00

I fell in love with Israel. The people, the culture, the land. There aren't words to accurately describe how amazing the country is. It was an experience of a lifetime that I will replay in my mind over and over again for the rest of my life.

OMG EGGS & BUTTER!

2011-01-24T21:51:00.001-06:00

OMG this commercial is phenomenal.

I'm completely captivated.

Now I want some scrumptious eggs & butter!

Oh yeah, and a man to cook them for me would be nice, as well :)

Try something new.

2011-01-24T12:05:00.001-06:00

Be daring.

Be fierce.

Be bolder.

Find someone to love & grow old with.

Don't settle.

Fight harder.

Don't give up.

Enjoy & appreciate life.

& Don't forget to SMILE :)

It could be worse...

"Did they tell you, you should grow up

when you wanted to dream?

Did they warn you, 'better shape up

if you want to succeed'?

I don't know about you, who are they talking to?

They're not talking to me.

I'm higher than high, lower than deep.

I'm doing it wrong, singing along."

Here I COME when I better GO...

Feeling very grateful, lucky, & fortunate to do what I love

& to be surrounded by so much beauty.

LIFE IS SHORT BUT SWEET FOR CERTAIN.

2011-01-11T20:33:00.000-06:00

I've got a lethal sweet tooth & a serious appetite for life.

Bye, bye free time :)

Well, hot and heavy, pumpkin pie, chocolate cake, and Jesus Christ...

This is so precious ;)

2010-11-28T21:26:00.000-06:00

Happy belated Thanksgiving! Hope everyone had a delicious holiday.

It was wonderful to spend time with the family & feast on yummy food.

Over the weekend, we celebrated my sisters 13th birthday at the most magical place on earth, DISNEY! It was beautifully decorated for the holidays & we had a blast.

As 2010 comes to an end, I'm reflecting about the past & how much my life has changed this year.

I can only look towards the future & keep my head held high.

Life is a mystery, a journey, a battle, a gift...

All I can do is keep breathing, being, & believing.

I've got a heavy heart & a pair of empty hands...

2010-11-01T20:57:00.000-05:00

HALLOWEEN, you are one ugly monster.

2010-10-31T15:50:00.000-05:00

TRICK OR TREAT!

GIMME CANDY!!!!

I'm over this holiday.

BOO!

LET GO!

2010-10-28T11:00:00.000-05:00

Everybody, everybody just wanna fall in love...

2010-10-21T12:30:00.000-05:00

;)

When I pinky promise, I mean it...

2010-10-19T10:27:00.000-05:00

via: where did you get that

I'm fading.

2010-10-18T12:43:00.004-05:00

Halloween is creeping in...

Bones, bugs, spider webs, dressing up, pumpkins, & buckets full of CANDY.

The nostalgic smell of cinnamon & pumpkin fill my nostrils.

A cooler, crisper air surrounds me, & I can feel the gradual progression of Fall trickling in.

I need to reignite my spark.

I'm fading...

"...so many ways, I'm achin' now."

2010-10-15T14:50:00.003-05:00

TRY, TRY, & TRY AGAIN.

All it takes is a little conscious effort to TRY...

CUPCAKES & MR. PANDA.

2010-09-23T13:41:00.001-05:00

Totally got a kick out of this Panda commercial via Johnny Cupcakes

Besides the fact that I adore cupcakes, I've always admired the innovative mind of Johnny Cupcakes and everything he's done with his brand. I love the creativity and passion he puts into his clothing/accessories.

Each t-shirt I've purchased from the store has come in an interestingly designed box, with fun & neat looking wrapping, a Johnny Cupcakes pin & collectable card, and just recently, a fun fact printed on the inside of the T-shirt. Even the tag is unique, usually in the shape of an oven mitt!

It's remarkable how much the little things really matter and how they can impact customer satisfaction (at least for me). I can honestly say that these little things effectively distinguish this brand from other traditional brands. It's more than just buying a regular t-shirt because they are limited edition. Johnny Cupcakes is always striving to be original, always thinking big, and outside of the box.

He serves as an excellent example that you can do big things by utilizing a creative mind and instilling passion into what you believe in. I'm ready to make big things happen, my passion is bursting at the seams, & I'm truly inspired.

Thanks Johnny :)

The weather was really beautiful today.

The air was warm, the sky was bright, & blue, & the sun was glimmering.

I took a few steps outside into my backyard & started snapping pictures...

My mind is spinning like a cyclone.

My heart is too big for my body.

I'm craving change.

Life is like riding a bicycle...

2010-09-13T22:32:00.002-05:00

Time to indulge in fashion week, shopping, exploring, & eating delicious food.

Ready to act spontaneously & seek adventure without holding back.

I have an insatiable thirst for thrills & an unyielding passion for life.

New York, here I come!

EMBRACE THE CHAOS & LET LIFE ASTONISH YOU.

2010-09-12T10:41:00.000-05:00

Internal batteries recharged.

Optimism is gradually building itself up again.

Ready to escape, travel the world, & experience life.

I tremble. They're gonna eat me alive, if I stumble...

2010-09-02T16:24:00.000-05:00

To consolidate all of my thoughts and have them make sense would simply translate into madness.

I've got my eyes open wide, my heart beating boldly, and my mind firmly focused.

Let's see how things unfold.

LEAN BACK, BIKE, & SWEAT.

2010-08-21T11:05:00.000-05:00

Hello sweet Sunday.

2010-07-18T08:11:00.001-05:00

I can give you what you want.

2010-07-16T09:27:00.000-05:00

We all need something to believe in...

2010-07-15T23:24:00.000-05:00

It's all up to you.

CUPCAKES, MATCHES, & SUGAR PACKETS.

2010-07-12T14:23:00.000-05:00

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements?

2010-07-08T13:51:00.000-05:00

HEARTBREAKER.

2010-07-06T12:12:00.001-05:00

2010-07-02T20:26:00.000-05:00

So hot we'll melt your popsicle.

2010-07-02T16:03:00.000-05:00

I love the vibrant combination of colors, the wigs, the American Apparel body suits, the nail and lip color, and the gorgeous scenery.

It's bright, blazing, & brilliant like a hot summer day.

I saw the sign & it opened up my eyes...

2010-06-30T17:39:00.000-05:00

Sink or swim.

2010-06-29T15:30:00.000-05:00

I feel like I'm drowning.

Gasping for air as my lungs collapse.

I feel the water all around me.

Smothering me.

I resist the air I need to breathe.

& in the final moments underwater

I come back to my senses.

I just need to reach the surface before it's too late.

I'm coming up for a breath of fresh air.

My tears dry on their own.

2010-06-28T09:46:00.000-05:00

Care[less] in our summer clothes.

2010-06-26T17:49:00.002-05:00

Close your eyes & inhale deeply...

2010-06-25T21:55:00.000-05:00

The air is hot & thick.
The sunlight penetrates exposed skin.

Breathe it in.
Soak it up.
Relax & let go.

SHE'S A MANEATER.

2010-06-24T08:33:00.000-05:00

MHM!

Fresh squeezed fashion juice!

Sincerely,

Me.

Sweet tooth fairy.

2010-06-10T14:58:00.000-05:00

These days...

2010-06-09T11:38:00.000-05:00

Let's stop calling it love. Love is a losing game.

2010-05-29T13:00:00.000-05:00

REwind.REmix.REflect.

2010-05-27T10:39:00.000-05:00

Koala yummies, Dunk-a-roos, Capri Sun's, playing street hockey, singing in chorus, rehearsing for musical theater plays, ice cream for dessert every night, swaying back and forth on swings at the park, riding the bus to and from school, being bullied, wearing overalls and pig tails, developing crushes on the unattainable boys at school, daydreaming about love and life....

Ah, the days of my youth...

the heartache, the confusion, the mystery, the madness, the mistakes, the accomplishments, the simple life, where cell phones and computers were nonexistent technological devices.

Rewinding back to moments in my life, altering in my mind what could have been, and reflecting to learn from the past and continue to grow and flourish...

YUP. I do.

2010-05-26T15:40:00.000-05:00

My confidence and coyness fluctuate like a flickering flame on the darkest night.

2010-05-19T09:56:00.001-05:00

Today I am unapologetically full of words. Once I can appropriately gather my thoughts, perhaps then, I'll be willing to share. Til then, I'm smiling, laughing, and dancing inside my brilliant, whimsical, & complex mind...

I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot. I guess not...

2010-05-18T18:58:00.001-05:00

Hmph.

GO WILD!!!

2010-05-10T20:03:00.000-05:00

Run, run, run away. Lost, lost, lost my mind...

2010-05-07T19:25:00.001-05:00

I'm ready for a new adventure. I'm ready to explore the world as I never have before. I want to expose myself to new ideas & live as if each day is my last. I hope to open my eyes wide enough to experience the wonders of the world.

The return of the scorching heat reminds me of all the pleasurable, carefree summers of the past. The bundle of memories I have are wrapped up tightly & remain locked inside a special place within my heavy heart.

I'm looking forward to long days spent sweating in the heat, keeping cool indoors, swimming laps at the pool, watching the ocean waves crash upon the shore, wearing one piece suits, sandals, shorts, sunglasses, & lots of sunscreen and lip balm...

and growing into the person I'm supposed to become.

I'd like to stay here for a while. Please don't wake me from this beautiful dream of mine...

..and every single second that I put it off, means another lonely night I gotta race the clock.

2010-05-07T02:15:00.002-05:00

today: be happy. tomorrow: be happy. everyday: be happy.

2010-05-06T12:38:00.003-05:00

I'm all red eyed & blue.

2010-05-02T13:37:00.002-05:00

"I want so badly to believe that there is truth

that love is real."

I'm searching beyond the zone of my comfortability level in an attempt to discover happiness. Sometimes I am able to find it in the most microscopic molecules of life. Sight & sound serve as constant reminders of the fortunate life I lead. As time progresses, my mind becomes more conflicted with thoughts of uncertainty. Despite these feelings, I'm learning to accept what I cannot control. I think I've come to find that if we continue to positively view situations in our life, we can ultimately achieve a more pleasant & soothing feeling within. This then allows us to put more ease on the heart & mind. I blabber about my thoughts nonsensically because my mind is in constant motion...

Always buzzin' just like NEON, NEON.

2010-04-29T20:34:00.001-05:00

Feeling quite ELECTRIC.
