Walden and Weekends.

 I'm really excited to start reading Walden, or Life in the Woods by Henry David Thoreau. I waited about two and a half weeks for the book to arrive in the mail. I cant complain too much though; it was only $3.  Maybe one day I will build a house by a pond and live the simple life!



I feel that my weeks are pretty busy, and my weekends are usually crazy. So I've decided that at least one night of the weekend, I should take time off from school or work or going out. Tonight it entails drinking some wine while watching Land Before Time on Netflix. Later, I will be smoking hookah with my housemate too.  All I need to end my night is some herbal tea and aroma therapy!

P.S. a big thanks to my Paleontology class for teaching me the connection between Ducky and Hadrosaurs.  And for ruining Petrie, who is actually a Pterosaur, not a Dinosaur.... he probably wasn't even alive during the same time as the rest of the cast because he thrived mostly in the Jurassic and Cretaceous periods, while Spike, Sarah, and Sharptooth lived at the very end of the Cretaceous. See... I'm studying, right?

I know, Ducky. It's sad...

horoscopes and guitar.

Here's my horoscope for today that I have from my lovely daily horoscope app on my blackberry:

"You know how important it is to believe in yourself, Gemini, and you are normally very focused in that regard. Now, though, someone with a negative spirit may be influencing your feelings about yourself and about a current endeavor. You cannot allow someone to have that kind of control over you. By letting someone's negative energy, envy, or general malcontent affect your peace of mind or your drive to succeed, you are giving away your power. Steer clear of those who exude a life-sucking vibe and allow in only those with positive energy."
...I'm not a big fan of negativity in the first place, but this pretty much confirms why I should stay away from it!

I'm currently learning how to play this:

And my fingers hurt from not playing guitar in so long! :(

A girl worth fighting for.


This is my night in a nutshell.

thoughts.

The smell of my mid-morning brewed coffee is smelling up the house.

The wind is blowing very loudly and extremely hard outside.

I think I'm going to go to the 5 cent wine sale at BevMo this weekend!

I found this awesome website where you can customize a sunrise and sunset calendar based on where you live!

annoying.

My eye keeps twitching!! I hate it. It's just a tiny little muscle spasm on the bottom of my left eye.

hahaha! it looks like the picture on here!

(Any one of those causes listed could be the reason for it...except for lack of sleep. I think I've been sleeping plenty)

My bedding:


Other bedding I like: (Most of them are Dwell Studio or Urban)
