..hmm

Something has come over me recently.
maybe the winter blues HAVE gotten to me :-/
maybe i'm just lonely.
i'm not sure... but i'm feeling a bit empty lately.
it could also be that school is ridiculous right now and Spring Break is soooo close
or, that i'm on my period.. and that makes me wildly emotional.
who knows for sure really.
... not me.

I'm up late... per usual.
and i felt like compiling a list of things that really have my eye right now..
this website: yayeveryday.com  - i absolutely adore it. it's just a bunch of random things that 'artistic' people post (they have to do an application of sorts and be accepted.. so it's pretty legit) ... i lovee it.

^ a new post from yayeverday... found it fitting for my life at the moment.

'Fun Home' by Alison Bechdel - seriously, great book. just finished it. brilliant writing. so creative and entertaining.. it's a memoir.. and it's seriously genious! annnd, it's in comic book layout. sooo.. basically a picture book. Alison Bechdel is a lesbian ( i am not ) but it's still a great read.. highly recommend it!

my soon-to-be tattoo. 'Keep Calm and Carry On' ... the format can be seen at the top of the blog or below... exactly the same only in black ink.. on my left side under my left arm.  I've been in love with this for some time now and it holds a lot of historical significance.. (from the British gov't when they were on the brink of being invaded by Hitler.. slogan was initially intended to ease the minds of the British people.. but was never used... it resurfaced in 2000) ... i've been itching to get a tattoo for awhile but was unsure of what I wanted.. and the more I think about it. the more i love it. plus, what better time that when i'm young and stupid :)

going to Ireland... i really want to.

i'm hoping/planning/praying that i will get the opportunity to spend a semester there next spring for school.. hopefully the funding will come through.

..... and daily i consider dropping out of school :) haha.. something like Ireland will keep me going

okay.. I believe that's all i have for now.

I'll make sure i'm cheery the next time i post.

take care.
