“A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite.”

- Leo Tolstoy (via iflickmywithers)

““Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics.”

- Albert Einstein (via elige)

I don’t miss Florence…i barely remember Florence. I’m sure missing it will come…i haven’t looked through my pictures yet. I do keep thinking in Italian and saying random phrases that no one understands. I miss the Villains. I am also violently ill and don’t feel like i could ever be healthy again. It is keeping my from fully enjoying the in n out and starbucks i have had recently. I haven’t been able to finish anything i’ve tried to eat or drink and all i want is a panera breadbowl with broccoli cheddar soup.

I feel like a bum, bugging people with finals to play with me. But it is so lovely to be reunited with my friends who love me. Reunions with others take place so soon that i want to go running very very far into a forest and never come out.

They lost my baggage. They found it, and it is at my friend’s house, and i will be picking it up in about a half an hour. This means a glorious reunion with my cellular device, which is dead due to lack of charger, which is in my luggage. That will be most glorious. I will be able to talk to my friends again! Hoooooray!

I feel sick and stressed and scared and jetlagged and grumpy. But so happy to be home.

Ciao Firenze!

Fri, 14 May 2010 09:43:56 -0400

I can’t believe I’m leaving. But this time tomorrow I will be flying over the east coast. In 27 hours I will be landing in LAX. In about 29 hours I will be rolling into Lily’s house.

I can’t wait to see my friends! And my family! And my california. :) I won’t let anything ruin or even mildly harm this lovely return home week at chapman. i will be happy. :)

I’m all packed up and just have to throw a bunch of stuff out and donate some food and clothes, and then we’re out for dinner and gelato and to have our last bottle of wine! Then we will be on the way to the airport around 4. Board the plane a little before 6, then have an EIGHT HOUR LAYOVER in Munich. GROSS. But then we’ll be back on the plane and on our way to be so hot we’ll met your popsicle.

Goodbye, beautiful city. Thank you for changing my life. I won’t forget anything I’ve done here, and I will always remember the good and bad times that made me grow into such a different and new person i have yet to fully discover.

Ciao, bella citta.

Happy Mother's Day!

Despite not being a mother, what I would like as a present is to be able to fly home on Saturday. All the airports are shut down again. I just want to go home.

Writing An Essay.

“She was assured of his affection; and that heart in return was solicited, which, perhaps, they pretty equally knew was already entirely his own; for, though Henry was now sincerely attached to her—though he felt and delighted in all the excellencies of her character, and truly loved her society—I must confess that his affection originated in nothing better than gratitude; or, in other words, that a persuasion of her partiality for him had been the only cause of giving her a serious thought. It is a new circumstance in romance, I acknowledge, and dreadfully derogatory of an heroine’s dignity; but if it be as new in common life, the credit of a wild imagination will at least by all my own.” -Jane Austen

Happy Birthday, Your Majesty!

Wed, 21 Apr 2010 16:18:00 -0400

I was baking a lovely lemon cake earlier today before Magic class, completely unaware that I was baking it in honor of Her Majesty’s birthday! Once aware of it being a special, royal day, I began preparation for a tea party! It was quite lovely for me, I went through all the cabinets finding strange trinkets and such. The final table included: a lovely lace tablecloth, matching china with pink flowers and gold rims (tea cup and saucer, cake plate, and sugar bowl, plus another tea cup for milk because I absolutely refused to use the mismatching milk pitcher, which consequently meant much soaking up of spilt milk, but there were no tears!), our plain silver kettle full of English Breakfast tea sitting on a nice kettle coaster with swans (apparently they were white ducks, but I like to think of them as swans for the Queen), two lit candlesticks in some kind of vase I found, a plate (in matching china) hosting the lemon bars I made, arranged into a pyramid of sorts and sporting a nice “Happy Birthday, Queen Elizabeth II” flag at the top, and these quirky little snail nameplate holders, which were adequately supplied with the full names of the Villains. I was most happy. So, to end my happy hostess history, Happy Birthday to the Queen, and a happy Unbirthday to you!

Happy B-day, Eta Sigma!

All Over The Place

Mon, 19 Apr 2010 13:36:44 -0400

I’m in one of my favorite moods, where I just want to change everything in my life. Not because it’s awful or even bad, but just for something new. Or to fulfill a vision I’ve always had. I’ve always pictured myself as a brunette. I really really want to dye my hair brown, like it used to be in 8/9th grade. However, I have these nice little natural highlights in my blondeyblonde hair that would go away, which would be sad. Maybe this Fall, if I ever get the courage to do it. Until then I’ll just try something else that’s new. I’m sure I can think of something. :)

Also, I’m eating Wine Gums. Life is terribly good.
