the gal who secretly wants to live in NYC someday

the lady who is going to be a wedding gown designer.

the gal who has so much fun just holding blank white paper imagining what to doodle on it

the girl who loves crackers. and frosting. not together.

the gal who thinks the 40's was super chic

the gal who loves Harry Potter

the gal who just loves to dress up, for any and every occasion.

the one who loves oldies. Jo Stafford has a stunning voice.

Seriously right now?!

Did Michael Jackson really just die of a heart attack!?

He's one of those people you just think will never die!

He is a legend.

I will always remember him for:

Thriller. And making stake/institute dances that much cooler with the dance

The "Only in America can a poor little black boy grow up to be a rich white woman" joke

his NOSE and scary scary face. Another example of how terrible plastic surgery is.

Super Talented Dancer.. Moonwalking, the ol' crotch-grab

His Music is amazing. West Coast Swing, anyone?

Captain EO

"I don't wake up for much, but I'll wake up for Michael Jackson..." {inside joke}

Thanks for the good times, MJ

.fearless.

I was the girl who for three years went to college to do generals trying to "figure out" what she wanted to be because she was too scared to go for what she really wanted. The girl who never took risks. Never stayed out late. Never got up to express her testimony to the world in a church setting. Never chopped off her hair {even though she badly wanted to} in fear of how others would like it.

Why is it that I was so afraid to be myself?

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory ... that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." - Marianne Williamson


It finally dawned on me that I should stop caring what others thought, because how was I to be truly happy if I didn't pursue my dreams? I was so scared of even trying to go for what I wanted, I was so unhappy trying to pursue other careers.

I'm finding now that I'm so much happier, that opportunities are opening up around every corner. People are happy for me because I'm happy. I have a new confidence that is helping me see the world in a different light. I have new goals, and I'm reaching for the stars.

Who am I not to be fabulous?

If there's any advice I can give you, it would be to go for what you want. Do what you love. Love life and love learning and everything just falls into place.
Funny how that works out, isn't it?

Always aim your goals and aspiration for the moon, because even if you don't make it, you'll always end up reaching the stars

All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me... You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.

Spying Etiquette

Apparently I'm a good candidate for being spied upon.

I got home from watching the cowboys and found some pictures of ME from across the stadium.

Thanks Rico.

Pictures to come.

*note*

the previous story is true, but maybe a tad over exaggerated. story was shared all in good humor and to remember this awkward dating stage in life.. Blind dates are fun. :)
