Things I Love Thursday: 7-29-2011

One day, I will remember to post this on a Thursday!  So, here's whats good!

• The Apartment.  Oh, the apartment is wonderful.  There are still a few key pieces missing (like A BED) but its coming along nicely!  The other night I made panini sandwiches, and I felt like a true adult.  Kyla and I also went on a shopping trip to Sam's Club and bought a lot of great things (like wine! And a year supply of toilet paper!).  Pictures soon, I promise!
• My friend/former co-worker Kelli is in town!  I got to see her last night with a lot of my favorite people.  I miss seeing her everyday and laughing all the time.  
• THE FUTURE.  I am always excited about the future.  I might be visiting Arizona in a couple months for a campus visit!  I can't wait!  I've been using my tumblr to look at images of Tucson for the past couple of months and the city looks beautiful! 
• The other night, I watched A Very Potter Musical.  I then had the strange urge to roll around on the floor like Draco Malfoy.  Like so:

Small Things Worth Mentioning:

Making amazing playlists for my iPod. * Smiling a lot * Laughing about awkward moments (there have been a lot of them lately.  All of which are HILARIOUS) * Having crazy red hair * Social Outings * Free things!

Rhett Butler is my favorite movie scoundrel. Actually, Clark Gable is my favorite scoundrel but he plays Rhett Butler, so they are one and the same in my eyes.  Anyhow, I think this is my favorite piece of movie advice.

Clearly, I would take Rhett over Ashley Wilkes any day.  I don't get Ashley's appeal.  He is the oldest 18 year old I have ever seen!  And so boring!  SO BORING!  Ashley seems like someone who neither knows how to kiss nor would kiss often.

TILT (or TILS???)

Friends, my days are so confused, its not even funny.  Its Saturday?  How did this happen?  I thought Tuesday was Friday, and today feels like Wednesday!  I just don't even know sometimes!  Anyhow, here is my very belated Things I Love Thursday!

The keys to my place!

• Moving in!  Kyla and I finally signed our lease and moved in this week!  I still have to make a trip home to pick up important things (Microwave, cheese dome, etc) but our place is really coming together!  I am in love with our apartment (for reals!)  I also love that Kyla shares the same affinity for decorating and enthusiasm over the idea of purchasing a lazy susan.  
• Applying for jobs.  I am sure this will turn into a hate soon, but I have high hopes and aspirations!  
• Silver Dollar City!  On my only day off last week, three of my friends and I went to Silver Dollar City to help my friend Sarah conquer her fears of upside down roller coasters!  I'm so proud!  After conquering her fears, we went on almost every ride and ate funnel cake!  Nothing is better than eating funnel cake at an amusement park!  Small accomplishment for myself: I did not get sunburned!  SUCCESS!
• My mom got accepted into graduate school!  She is getting her doctorate!  I'm so proud and excited for her!
• Realizing the summer is almost over.  This is actually bitter sweet, to be honest.  This summer has really blown by!  I am excited to finally (finally) finish college this next semester, but the end of summer means sending out my graduate school applications and figuring out where I am going to live!  SCARY!
• Along with realizing that time is slipping through my fingers, I have also come up with many alternative plans for the future.  The future is limitless! 

Small Things:

Manifesting what I desire * Rapping along to Nicki Minaj in my car * Cheeky shenanigans * Bonding with my coworkers * Getting a great deal on a sun dress (50% off!) * Sushi! (I had it four times within the last week! Eep!) * Writing notes to myself on heart shaped post-its * Craft nights * Laughing until my stomach hurts * Curly hair * Getting along with children * Free ice cream * Eerily accurate horoscopes * Gawking at Lee Pace and James McAvoy (as always)

Its Thursday!  And this week I have a LOT of love to share!  I am feeling much more invigorated and healthy than last week (No longer sick! No flat tire! Not sleep deprived!)  Without further ado, here are the things I love this Thursday:

*I went home over the weekend to spend time with my family and friends.  It was great to see everyone and eat a ton of delicious food (guys, I did eat approximately 2,000 lbs of food).  Its always sad to leave after a weekend of fun, especially when the time was not long enough to spend with everyone!  But I did see a lot of people that matter a lot to me!

*Fourth of July shenanigans!  Kyla and I decided to dress for the occassion (it wasn't a hard decision to make).  I was America, and she was a Firework!  I wish I had pictures of our outfits, but I do have a picture of my Rosie the Riveter hair that I did five minutes before leaving!

We Can Do It!

Video I watched and learned from:

*Getting closure.  I was having doubts about making the right choice, and after having a long discussion, all uncertainty was erased.  Closure is always a good thing!

Small Fun Things:

Hula Hooping/Jump Roping to Disney Dubstep * Feeling productive at my job and internship * Greek Yogurt in bulk * Walking a lot * Nicki Minaj * Fake Tan (as always) * Finding a face scrub that I like * Videos by Jenna Marbles * Lunch with Celia on Saturday!!! * Letter making with Kyla and Sarah! * Plans for myself * Hello Giggles

I think a lot of my loves are repeats, but its always worth mentioning again!
