Bono and his wife are featured in the new Louis Vuitton ad, wearing clothes from their eco-friendly line, Edun. Ethically, it’s an interesting collaboration considering Bono’s moral stance and LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault’s not-so-moral business tactics.
I turn 21 in ONE week! In one week I shall be in Vegas. Oh my.
I have asked for:
A yellow Kitchen Aid.
A pair of red Hunter boots.
And a pair of antlers.
I don’t think I will receive any of these things. I feel like I am getting too old for birthday gifts. BUT I am excited for 21 :)
What if Danny and Sandy had just parted ways at the end of summer because they knew their lives were just too different for each other?
Why do I think musicals are real?
I have this friend, her name is Julie. I’ve known her since literally before I can remember. We’ve always gone to church together since she was born. She’s one of these people that has some how always just been there; she never just appeared.
It’s important to know that Julie is one of those people that is good for the soul. Hanging out with her is the equivalent of eating an entire pan of brownies when you feel your absolute worst. The best part about Julie is she doesn’t come with the calories of brownies. It’s the best of both worlds, really.
So we’re hanging out the other night, and she casually starts a story by saying “so the other morning I was eating my cinnamon roll in the bath tub…”
I don’t remember what else she said. That wasn’t the main point of the story. I love friends that savor the the good things in life. So go. Eat a cinnamon roll in the bath tub today.
These are the words that I have decided most accurately describe my thoughts in the last week or so. In fact, today, my sister looked at me and said, “I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone as cold-hearted as you”. Today on the way home from my cake decorating class, there was a cat in the road. I sped up to kill it, but my heart softened and I allowed it to dart across the street. Take that Rachel.
Anyway. I love cold weather. I love it so much. I love layering things. I love bone-chilling cold weather. I think I should move somewhere like New York. London, perhaps. Seattle seems nice. Lately Oregon seems popular.
I have asked for 2 things for my upcoming 21st birthday: a yellow Kitchen Aid mixer and a pair of red Hunter rainboots. I think when I was 7 I wanted an EasyBake Oven (those were SO rad) and a pink umbrella. Some things don’t change. I just want it to be stormy outside. So cold that I have to layer things. I want the sky to be gray and the trees to be the deepest shade of green. Whenever the weather makes the trees seem that emerald, I smile because green is my favorite color and God is just that awesome.
I have included a photo of myself to prove my narcissistic character. And because the word narcissistic is fun to say in my head. Narcissistic.
Even though I’m feeling cold-hearted, you know this is my favorite movie. A trench coat would be lovely. Might need to add that to my wish list.
when all else fails, always always always rely on gumption. it will get you somewhere. maybe not the ideal somewhere, but it will move you from where you are.
