The only people for me are the mad ones - the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles, exploding like spiders across the stars.

I have some pretty big news to share, and I have been trying to hold it in for quite some time. I was waiting to see how it would all pan out… Eek! And the time has come to tell everybody. I’m really excited about this big adventure that Alex and I are getting ourselves into, but nervous as well. Alex got into the Air Force! He passed the ASVAB with flying colors (My hubby is a genius...

Risk Everything. →
This is such a heart-warming story. A man is asked, “What small decision did you make that altered the entire course of your life?” He answers with this:
“I asked a complete stranger to take my picture in front of Big Ben, ended up travelling around Europe with her, parting, then tracking her down a year later and asking her to marry me. It was the best decision I ever made....

(Please excuse the lack of a “Hey, This entry is about July 4th.” Photo. My camera died. I don’t want to talk about it…)
I had a pretty spectacular July 4th. Long story short, Alex and I made it down to the beach for a five-minute “stick your toes in the sand, and run back to the car” kind of visit, saw his brother in Mobile for about an hour, then made the...

– A normal person will stand before a Claude Monet painting and pick their nose; a person filled with wonder will stand there fighting back the tears. By and large, our world has lost its sense of wonder. We have grown up. Our breath no longer catches at the sight of a rainbow. We no longer stop to...

Me: *shuffling through my underwear drawer*
Alex: I brought ten pairs.
Me: Oh, I always bring extra. I like to have choices.

hergreatperhaps asked: Hi. I've been on your blog for about 10 minutes and I can't drag myself away to go study for my spanish and english exams that are tomorrow and its 7pm and I REALLY need to go do that. However, I'm intrigued. Studio art as a major? And you're tying in marketing? That sounds so amazing to me...what do you plan on doing with your life? (I know this is a huge general question, so...
