My NYE plans
Ringing in the New Year in a new place, with the bf.
Can’t believe I moved to Texas for this kid. Here’s to 2011 and new adventures.
Awesome
This little girl sitting across from me at the gate just put her straw in ranch dip and started sipping it.
Shout out to Mary Rambin!!!
Currently in her neck of the woods in the Houston airport.
Also eyeing the BBQ place here but I’m not quite sure how much I trust airport BBQ.
You guys.... It's 6am
And girlfriend next to me is wearing a sequin hat.
Work. It. Out.
Oh Dad
My Dad is always early for everything. This morning he made me get up at 4am for an 8am flight… I understand I’m flying out of an airport that I don’t normally fly out of and we have to factor in travel time and possible morning traffic time but the fact remains I am 2 hours early for a domestic flight. Womp to the womp :(
Also I had a massive reunion last night with two...

I think one of my resolutions this upcoming year will be to not read the news for a few months.
It will certainly test my will power to extremes - a day without Anderson Cooper is a SAD SAD day.
In all honesty, CNN has been the biggest letdown lately. Nobody is reporting real news anymore. Our soldiers friends/family members are fighting wars right now and nobody focuses on that. Lindsay Lohan...

I’m not the biggest fan of his music, but I’ve been a big fan of his person and his attitude about life and healthy eating. His vegan chocolate mousse recipe using avocados is to die for.
That story is beautiful and so are they!
First Prince William.. now Jason Mraz. My top 5 is dwindling….
And honestly, how cute was this? Seriously. He WOULD.
Reading Rainbow
I’ve had so much downtime lately so aside from consuming calories (omg, went to the doctor this morning and realized I had gained a million pounds from eating all these Holiday goodies - I chalked it up to needing the fat to stay warm) I’ve been reading a lot.
My sister has the best reading list right now for school so naturally, I am mooching off all of her books and I’m...
Nice!
The Better Business Bureau definitely knows how to light a fire under a person’s ass. Filed the complaint about a week ago and received a frantic voicemail from the account secretary telling me she would fix it as soon as possible.
I will explain more in detail once the case is closed. I just don’t want to talk about it too much right now.
Either way… looks like they’re...

I'm going to cry
I’ve been wanting YSL Parisienne perfume for the longest time but never really got around to it. I could never justify spending $85 on perfume because I just don’t wear it too often.
Well this morning while I was watching Home Alone 2, lil sis came downstairs and handed me a present. It was the YSL perfume. I asked her how on earth she could afford it and she responded, “a lot...

Isabel Toledo for Payless is AMAZING
Matt’s sister got me this pair for Christmas and I absolutely love them! I haven’t gotten anything from Payless in the LONGEST time, but I will vouch for these shoes and say that they are quite well made and are VERY comfortable. The platform makes them so easy to work in and the little island platform in the front is reminiscent of Charlotte Olympia’s shoes.
So I loved these...
This Christmas...
I wish you all the luck, love, and joy in the world
I hope that Ryan Diviney’s healing continues to progress so that he can one day come out of his coma and be with his family and friends in both body and mind
I hope for the strength and encouragement to get me through whatever comes my way this upcoming year
I hope for justice for MH and peace for her family
I hope for peace

Happy Holidays!
I just spent the last couple days with Matt’s family and it was just wonderful. As usual, Matt’s mom spoiled us with delicious breakfasts EVERY morning. We got to spend more time with his sister and brother-in-law than usual. I met some of his other family members, had a shot with his neighbor, and we got to see some old friends we haven’t seen in awhile.
Oh, don’t even...
:)
Last night Matt and I went through his mom’s recipe book and picked out our favorites. She bought him an empty cook book and now she’s going to put the recipes we chose in it. How cute is that?

Sing Off
Can the UNC Clef Hangers circa Anoop Desai and The UVA Hullabahoos circa Brian Tucker & Brendon Mason get on the show and STRAIGHT UP KILL IT???
That’s all.

Bad timing!
Why is Ryan Reynolds shooting a film in Atlanta right when I’m about to leave?
Woe is me.
All smiles!
Going to see Matt & his family in just a few days!!!!
So close I can almost taste it
One more exam
Moving out on my own (should be interesting… seeing as I live on the TOP floor)
An 8.5 hour drive to Matt’s childhood home
That’s what stands in the way of me and enjoying Christmas vacation!

This is an interesting article!
The Christian aspect isn’t as relevant to me as it may be for others, but there are still some points I can definitely relate to!
This is a good one!

Good vibes
Sorry the Tumblr has been a little boring as of late. My day to day activities over the past few weeks have pretty much consisted of me in sweatpants doing everything in my power to not have to open my front door and go outside unless it’s to give a presentation, or go to a review session.
I have exams coming up over the next couple of days so send me some luck and love!
Promise I will...

Please take a couple minutes to watch this story about Ryan Diviney from The Today Show. He was a college student who got in a verbal argument on a late night snack run and ended up getting kicked in the head. It was said that the force of the kick was like the force of a football being punted. He is now in a coma fighting for his life… fighting to wake up. His Dad quit his job so that he...
