Some things...

I've had quite the lovely weekend. My insomnia really came back with a vengeance and not a sleepy time tea, benadryl, or tylenol pm could ease it. Oh well. I guess I really do need to get my ambien scrip filled again. I just hate that I'm gonna have to pay a damn $30 co-pay to get a $10 refill. BUT, that is only a very teeny tiny annoyance as I'm beyond grateful for my health care benefits.

As is always the case with my insomnia, I am feeling extra happy and optimistic and connected and just wonderful. I feel like I can take on the world and do all the things I always say I'm gonna do and still have yet to do them. I always try and chase this insomnia high and act upon all the great ideas I think I'm having. But without fail my mood levels even out and I go back to plain ol' me that isn't so manic happy and optimistic. But we'll see, maybe this time is the time. I'm gonna try to keep on the up and up and try to pin down the things that I want to accomplish that will make my journey to my ideal happy future a reality.

Does that last sentence even make any sense? It sort of makes sense in my head, but...I can't really trust everything that I think is brilliant in my head.

What I mean to say is that I want to finally start doing all the things that will make my future more attainable. I want to take a screenwriting class, start writing down my ideas, start filming short movies with my sisters and friends in our very limited free time. I want to keep up a gym regimen to help with the happy brain endorphins that'll make me not so depressed and pessimistic. I want to do all the things that I know will make my happy.

So, here we go! Lets do this thing. :)

Teeny Tiny Things Sunday

Today's Teeny Tiny Things is brought to you by my lovely sister Melanie. She was snapping a few shots of baby-zilla terrorizing a teeny tiny village while I was watching Pixiwoo tutorials. (I'm seriously obsessed with them).

It was quite the busy week. Super long. So glad that it's finally the weekend! I got to spend Saturday and Sunday with my sisters and we had ourselves some good times. Today we watched Our Idiot Brother and it was so good! I wasn't expecting it to be so charming, funny and sweet. Paul Rudd was just so adorable and I of course loved the sister dynamics. Such a great little world. I would definitely love to see it again.

Tomorrow I have to drop off my sister at the airport. :( Always so sad to say goodbye. We were super lucky this summer though because of how the holidays and such fell, we got to see her every 3 weeks or so since July. And before we know it Christmas will be right around the corner and we'll all be together again!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! May the week ahead fly right by straight into the 3 day weekend! :)

Wreck of the Hesperus*

I've been known to let my desk get completely out of hand. Exhibit A:

I mean, that's INSANE! That's probably the worst that my desk has ever gotten. Out of control for sure! I think the wonky picture frame near the bulletin board really adds that special something.

So, for ages and ages now I've been saying that I need to clean my desk. I finally got motivated enough to actually do it yesterday. Exhibit B:

Ta-da! I just love me a good "before and after!"

*Whenever my room gets unbelievably out of control messy like my desk, my Grandma says that it's like the Wreck of the Hesperus. :)

Hello + Food = Yummy Blog!

Welp, its 3am and I'm wide awake. Damn you insomnia! *shakes fist in insomnias face*

I was actually doing really good for about 2 months straight. But here we are again. Instead of continuing to blow up my Twitter feed with ridiculous song lyrics, I thought it'd be better to write a blog entry.

I was looking in my photo album of recent photos for some inspiration and I decided to share some photos from my trip out east to visit my sister Angelica and her husband. My sister Melanie and I helped them move to Michigan. Funnily enough most my photos are of food! We really did eat so much food on the trip!

Mmm....food. Now I'm hungry. I could totally go for one of those waffles right now. :)

5, 4, 3, 2, 1!

Hello blog world!

As you may have noticed, I did a little disappearing act from the blog for a bit. And I was doing so well for a good stretch! I think from the end of January all the way through March we had a good go of it and then came April and I kinda just got all blah-y and yeah.

But anywho, I think I may make my way back and do some more blogging. So...uh, yeah. Here we go again...

So, here's a music video I can't get enough of: Christina Perri's "Bang, Bang, Bang." How cute is she? 

Hope you're having a fantastic Memorial Weekend!

Week in Review + Teeny Tiny Things!

Hello to the weekend! Whew! What a week it has been. So busy! I made 4 trips into the big city this week. My car is running on empty..as is my bank account!

My good friend Kristin invited me to go see the show The Last 5 Years which was put on by the Duke City Repretory Theatre. So amazing! I had only ever heard 2 songs from the show. Aw, so good! The two actors were amazing! We went to the opening night so there was a reception after where they had a wedding cake. We got to chat with the actors and crew after. So much fun!

Yesterday we threw my sister Melanie a 30th birthday party. The theme was the 80's-Back to the Childhood. She brought all her awesome Star Wars toys and She-Ra for decorations. My aunt Lori also made this awesome poster for us:

My cousin and I were the only ones to dress up 80's style, but everyone seemed to have a blast. We ate lots of yummy food and danced the night away. So much fun!

One of the librarians brought me these blue legwarmers cause I misplaced mine. I cut up an old American Eagle hoodie and my hair and makeup was pretty 80's-tastic but by this point in the night, I'd danced it all off! haha!

And without further ado, here are some teeny tiny things for your viewing pleasure!

I bought these cute little railroad model odds 'n ends at a local thrift/antique store. A big ol' bag for $8! What a steal!

Welp, that's all I have for this photo attack blog post! Hope you're having a great weekend!
