i found this quote today on one of my favorite blogs. and i just think it's a really good reminder, especially in a time of my life when i'm trying really hard to take risks in hopes that they eventually manifest into greater rewards. it's from marrissa mayer, a former head exec of google and now, currently ceo ...
please sir, may i have s’more?
i mean, we all know my camping capabilities are less than up to snuff. (lest i remind you?) but just because mother nature and i can't seem to see eye to eye these days, that doesn't mean i can't contribute in some capacity should someone (ahem, boyfriend?) care to take me on a redemption camping trip (this ...
the same but different
everything is different but nothing has changed. it's improbable that things could somehow be altered and yet all the while remain the same; that a paradox of opposites could not, in fact, exist within our comprehension. and yet, this sentiment couldn't help but be a recurring theme throughout this weekend's events. my dear B returned to her former san ...
take care
if i've learned anything from this blogging thing, it's that the blogosphere is filled with some really amazing writers. some are witty, some are pithy, some are sarcastic, and a few even downright inappropriate. but at the core of them all is an unbridled honesty; a transparency i can appreciate no matter the subject matter. ...

i'm not sure what song i was singing in this picture, but i'm going to go out on a limb and say it was something by jesse mccartney. photo credit: lili durkin photography i oftentimes get big toothy grins, thumbs up, and the occasional stifled comment by passerby drivers upon completing an epic car dancing/lip syncing ...
friendlationship: one part friendship, one part relationship, all parts pepperdine
and now for some comic relief. so. i actually wrote this a long time ago. and it'll most definitely be a chapter in my book, but in an interest of sharing a funnier post with y'all (after many a more stoic, pensive, and thoughtful post), i have decided to post it now. if only for the fact ...
the definition of insanity
so during a productive date to starbucks on sunday, i decided to start organizing my thoughts for that book i've talked so relentlessly about for the past week or so and in a strange turn of events (i guess it's not so strange when you think about it, most of my writings on the whole have to deal with this subject) by ...
this one’s a fighter
so prior to even watching this track's official music video, i was smitten. the song is catchy, it's inspiring, it features ryan tedder. so really, what's not to love? but then, i decided to peruse youtube this weekend and this little diddy came into view. and well, what do you know, not even last weekend did my ...
brought to you courtesy of the red, white & blue
so i mean, i wish i could say i had an epic fourth of july spent romping around in my patriotic bikini, ray-bans, and my festive red, white, and blue manicure. but i didn't, and besides, the weather wasn't even that nice, i totally would have freezed my buns off (literally). but just because my attire ...
my own worst enemy
i'd like to think of myself as a self-starter. driven in my own right, with an attitude to simply go out get GET MY DREAMS DONE (and i mean, if i'm not, then i've certainly lied on my resume for the past nine years. whoopsies). and i really believe that in certain aspects of my ...
