Day one.

The jewish girl. owns holiday lights. mini tree.
Right now. these lights and tree mean something to me. not in a religious way.
but in a way that by looking at them I smile.
I see the pink lights that symbolize all the times Nikki and I went searching for them and came back empty handed. I wouldnt stop searching til I found them. It took me a year to find them. again. My room was christmas lightless for a whole year. it was sad. The tree is special. Nikki gave it to me. So my home wouldnt be tree-less. I have always loved the thoughtfulness of my best friend.


This wasnt taken today. as part of my resolution. This was taken because I love wrapping. And these gifts made me just as happy as the people they were for.

yay for holiday cheer!

I dont think I've ever felt more alone.

some people just dont read the warning...

New Years Resolutions

i've never been one of those people that make resolutions. or one of those people that stick to resolutions for that matter. However, this year, something must be in the water. I feel like something is different. I'm Freer. my heart is lighter and larger. I'm ready to take on the challenges that a resolution has to throw at me. i'm ready to start the new year. with a new mind. an educated mind. a mind that has its own mind. set on its own goals. BRING IT ON!

365 days of photos. one photo a day. that i can use in a portfolio or something in a professional environment. This will help me learn my camera. and to take more meaningful photos. I look forward to the challenge. This will be fun.

gym. gym. gym. the amount of time that i want to spend there in one week. I also just purchased another game for the wii fit. I want to use that the same amount of time that i want to be spending in the gym.

I'm also looking for a healthy mind. a healthy body. a healthy spirit. starting with healthier eats. less junk. more oatmeal. more fruit. more veggies.

lastly. budget. I need to save my money. i need to set a limit for the week of what i can spend. and stick to it. I make enough money where i should be able to save about 500 a month. atleast. instead it ends up to less than 3. how does that happen? Not anymore. I must save and it starts now!

2010. I like you already.

thought of the day

have you ever had multiple people you dont know ask how you are. Actually you're sick and miserable because people are mean. and each time you say I'm good, how are you? what is going on. why cant you just load everything you are feeling onto strangers? I just think its weird that people ask you such a genuine question of how you're doing... and then you lie to them. its odd. And an interesting world we live in.
