2 random statements for each of the 10 weeks that I've been gone (+11 extra ones because I thought that I was going to write 70 statements but then I hit thirty and I felt like ripping my hair out and now I have this super long parenthesis in my title AH!)

Hello Hello Hello! 
It's been a hot minute. One of my goals for this fine new year is to write on this blog biweekly. I cannot promise that it'll all be good writing, I can actually assure all 5 of you that're reading this that the
majority of it will not be. But I'm a big believer in the whole "practice makes perfect" thing so I think that by hurling 26 balls in the air a few of them are bound to make it in the net. We shall see we shall see. Today, I offer you thirty-one statements. 

  1. Mint chocolate chip ice-cream is crappy. 

  2. Knowing how to jump rope is not an essential skill.

  3.  I am obsessed with the idea of doing karaoke but I probably would be too chicken to step up to them mic. 

  4. People always give me planners for my birthday because I’m “organized” but they end up just sitting in my closet so maybe I’m just wasteful. 

  5. Standup comedy is one of the best forms of storytelling---when done well. 

  6. My favorite characters from HBO’s Girls are all of the boys and my favorite characters from AMC's Mad Men are the women.

  7. Trident’s wild strawberry + tangy citrus gum is literally nectar sent from the gods

  8. The phrase “I’m sweating like a sinner in church” is one of the funniest ones that exists. 

  9. The Beatles are really quite good. 

  10. I have no idea how to use google spreadsheets/google excel and I have know intention of learning how. Life requires a little bit of struggle. 

  11. Dev Patel is one of the most beautiful men on this planet. That skin! That hair! Those eyes!  He brings so much to the table. 

  12. I am not a pet person, sue me. 

  13. Books are excellent decor pieces, they are also nice to read. 

  14. Something deep inside of me knows that if somebody strapped me into a pair of tap shoes and turned on the Chicago Soundtrack ( the ‘I can’t do it alone’ track , specifically) that I would shine. 

  15. Peanut butter is fabulous 

  16. Few things are more satisfying than crossing an action item off of a to-do list. 

  17. Toddlers with bangs and toddlers with glasses are the cutest toddlers to ever toddle. 

  18. There is nothing I wouldn’t give up in exchange to be naturally good at math. Not a single thing.

  19. I don’t know if the hefty weight of my backpack will force me to have exquisite posture later in life or if it’ll give me crippling back pain, only time will tell. 

  20. Hunter Harris is one of the sharpest/funniest/dopest writers of our time and she’s going to reach the moon + the stars. Bet on it. 

  21. I wear mismatched socks every single day because I’m into organized chaos. 

  22. Barbra Streisand’s rendition of Being Alive could probably cure cancer...not really sure how, but it definitely could. 

  23. I miss doing the cupid shuffle @ 1pm in random middle school gyms, it was my passion. 

  24. Nothing is more stunning than a sun shower in July. 

  25. Hula Hooping is so (!!!) much fun. 

  26. I am destined to get bangs at some point and they will undoubtedly be catastrophic. I’m looking forward to it. 

  27. Every single millisecond of Ladybird has a special place in my heart. 

  28. My handwriting = chicken scratch 

  29. People who don’t know how to ride a bike have a certain air around them. It’s neither good nor bad but it is HEAVY. 

  30. The day that I go to my first concert I’ll probably explode. Like I’ll step into the venue and just combust. 

  31. Most of my valuables are just random things that I’ve stolen from school over the years.


UNTIL NEXT TIME !

My Lifelong Affair with Corinne Bailey Rae

Corinne Bailey Rae has existed in my universe for as long as I can remember. My parents were music snobs back in the day and only allowed me and my sisters to listen to what they listened to in a  (successful) attempt to make sure that we all picked up their taste. Growing up I heard a lot of Prince, a lot of Sade, a lot of Billie Holiday, and a lot of Stevie Wonder. And while all of those artists have a special place in my heart none of them have stuck with me the way that Corinne Bailey Rae has.  Corinne Bailey Rae's self-titled debut album came out in 2006 when I was 2 years old. My family was still a family of four, we hadn't moved to the suburbs yet, and my father still had all of his hair. Things were different. I don't what hearing CBR's music for the first time felt like (re: two years old) but I do know that I heard it all of the time. It played during road trips down to Mississippi, while my mom cooked dinner, while me and my older sister slept. That a

If I ever got a tattoo...

I'd probably faint and/or cry the second they used those little cleaning wipes to prepare me for the needle. Then, after being nursed back to health with a juice box and slightly sedated with something serious but sensible (try saying those last seven words five times fast...), I'd hop back on my chair and finalize my design. The idea of getting a tattoo freaks me out because tattoos are forever and  the thought of anything that I do being final is genuinely terrifying, So I wouldn't even bother trying to come up with a design of something special or even relatively important. No, I'd get something silly enough for it not to be taken too seriously but respectable enough for it to not make me look like a total idiot. A bee...a semi circle...a fried egg...the letter w...a qr code that sends you to the YouTube video of Beyoncé's 2009 Grammy performance...a rubber ducky. Nothing is really off limits as long is it fits the aforementioned requirements. I'd want the ta

Tune Tour

The other day I was messing around Pinterest (as you do) and felt a massive urge to renovate my life in some sort of long lasting but not super tangible way (as you do) so I decided to redo my  spotify playlist covers. I'm very particular about my playlists. I've the same 9 for 3 years and they're all poorly titled and horribly curated. I love them dearly. But I knew that it was time for a change so I dedicated my Sunday afternoon (+ night) to vamping them up. Here are the results!  me, listening to my new playlists
