Adobe Ideas

Sunday, August 8, 2010 Adobe Ideas may be the most awesome app there ever was. I just need to figure out how to export as an image to my phone photo album and I'll be set.

Fading Euphoria

Thursday, August 5, 2010 Whether it's because my body is getting depressed from a lack of carbs or just the usual doldrums, the euphoria of grand new changes in my life has faded. I neither want to do anything or nothing. It's a sad state of being.

I can't see it,
sometimes – if I strain just right,
but I feel it against my skin, warm
when I'm cold, cool
when I'm not; it lies
heavy and strong reassuring me. Gold 

against brown skin, it pulls
about my neck. So simple
and plain – it is
just two gold bars
lying across 

one another. While I stride
in the light, the gift's shine is brilliant, catching
eyes with it's glint, yielding a pause
over the One
embodied. Yet
there is no glow, if I sit in the dark and
the smooth structure goes
unnoticed, unable to share 

its story. Shower, sleep, walking, eat,
it moves
as I move and sees 

what I see. So, basic and bare
a thing to be so
precious to me.

"At the Cross" by me

Gold against brown skin

Wednesday, July 28, 2010 I've worn a simple gold cross around my neck since I was fourteen. I've lost two (one randomly in the dorm, another flew off when my chain caught at the grocery store), but this one I've cherished most. Grandma chose the cross and my mother chose the chain; it is quite precious to me.

Breakfast of champions

Monday, July 19, 2010 This picture was taken at night! I had been eating these rather compulsively until I fell asleep, but who can blame me; chocolate and peanut butter and soft crunchiness = Win!

I be readin’

Thursday, July 15, 2010 I've made millions of ambitious goals like this previously and I've never really got anywhere with them. I make grandiose goals, but rarely are they realized. A Star Wars reading challenge, however, may be the one thing to get my goal-accomplishing drive started.

Everyday List

Tuesday, July 13, 2010 I've been making these master to-do lists since before I can remember. The sad part is that the list seems to grow longer all the time, but the day never does.

Enter Gringotts

Thursday, July 8, 2010 I had bought this coin bank in the midst of my Harry Potter fanaticism at age 18. I've sporadically added loose coins to it and it's now so full I can barely lift it. The worst part is I've no idea how to get out the money...

Serenity

Friday, July 2, 2010 Love coming to Hoover at lunch...especially on a perfect, blue-sky day.

In the shadow

Thursday, July 1, 2010 "We were once like you," shouted the cut stalks to the growing ones. "Wave tall and strong now for your time will soon come."
