the perfect companion

Bon Iver is gently playing on the turntable thanks to Sam.

All i wanted to say tonight is that music is the perfect companion in every situation. Music is my most favorite. Listen with your ears and heart, close your eyes and busy mind, and allow your spirit to zone and refresh.

oh december, december..

December is disappearing so quickly. I better start working on coming up with my personal resolution(s) list.

So, I was facebooking this morning, and was reading up on some friends, and i saw something wonderful that made me smile. She quoted me on something I said when I was at TA.

"The walk of life takes strength and poise, so make sure you wear the right heels." -Sara Brooke Bailey

I needed to see that today.



"For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For an attractive face, speak words of kindness. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you will never walk alone."
-Audrey Hepburn

Today...
my feet are cold
i've sneezed 4 times
my arm hurts from my incessant playing of band hero last night
i should probably wash my hair
i think a trip to grey whale is in order
i feel more rested than usual
i had frosted mini-wheats for breakfast, and they were GOOOOOOD
and finally,



thats all i have in my pocket for now.

john mayer and i hang out

i am convinced that john mayer writes songs about me. The way he lyrically drowns out the static noise in my head and comes out with clear solutions in a clean way, or inspiration and understanding is amazing. Music has always had a profound effect on my life. I can think of a song or a full soundtrack to a situation i am in, or to a memory i am making. Art and music go hand-in-hand in my mind. Here is Inspiration for you. love, me.



p.s. pick up john mayer's heartbreak warfare right now!
