Skinny Love -

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
And I told you to be balanced
And I told you to be kind

Body change

I know this is a bit personal, but it's only been two weeks and I'm already seeing my body change! Adjusting my diet to eating a bit more salads and a bit less sweets and throwing in at least a core workout are really helping.

OHFEST8

This past weekend was OHFEST, held by Hartwick and Suny Oneonta.

It involved closing down mainstreet for the day and holding a free concert at night.

The Ready Set was the featured band and I believe that the opening band was "Outasight"

Sadly, I didn't stay to see The Ready Set but did have an amazing day with my roommate and another close friend.  All three of us voluntered in the morning for OHFEST8 and had a great time. (: 

One Day Without Shoes

April 16, 2013 was TOMS "One Day Without Shoes" event to help raise awarness at the health and life risks for children who are not fortunate enough to own a pair of shoes.

Today, I decided to go with the challange of not wearing shoes.

It was difficult, especially because it rained.

however, I realized how for granted my shoes are to me, and how much my feet hurt at the end of today.

Moments

In these moments, laying with you, I feel as if every obstacle I face isn't that bad. That anything that comes my way, I can conquer. As long as you're by my side.

What's going on in the world?

In an effort to become a more worldly interested person, I've been skimming the New York Times online to catch up on some information.  Here are some of the latest stories that I find either interesting or concerning:

1. Gold is loosing its value in the market, dropping almost 17% from 2011.  Read about it here.
2. The new home of American Folk Art Museum in Manhatten is going to be demolished only after a short life of 12 years due to an expansion of Modern Museum of Art.  Read about it here.
3. South Korea is trying to defuse tension with North Korea, according to the Times. Read it here.

Big bed, lonely nights

I miss you when you're gone.
My bed is too big
And a bit too cold.

Innocence

I don't take claim on being innocent in any manner;

but every time I am watching a movie where two people kiss,

I have to look away.

It's embarrassing!

I think I'm a broken being with no hope for repair.

Spring break and after.

Spring break was amazing to say the least. My roommate Jenelle and I had an incredible time staying with my nana in South Carolina. Kayaking, shopping, sightseeing, gardens, cute high school boys hitting on us and the beach. Uhg. It was pure greatness. We didn't party all week or anything, but I'd say it was a very productive and fun week. :)


However, this week is terrible. I'm lazy and don't want to do work at all. Plus MU is giving me shit for financial aid which is ridiculous. I figure ill be working a part time job and a work study job and going to classes and trying to get fit and try to have some sort of social life. Mmmmmmhm. Wonderful.
