Vincent and life and words.


Okay.
I left my computer with a friend.
So this is my first time blogging on a phone.
We'll see how I goes...

Once again, it's been a while since my last post.
Which was goofy.
I am sad to inform you that grumpy cat does not make me laugh anymore.
Weird huh.
So lets bring you up to date, shall we?
I moved to slc.
Lovee it.
I love lifestyle and diversity.
I love the streets and art and buildings.
I love the laid back feel of it all.
When I moved up here, I kinda did it because I had the mind set of:
"If not now, never, so i'll just move now."
And that I did.
It took two months to realize where I belong (or didn't belong)
But I still found where I belong in slc.
If that makes sense. 
Most of you who know me that read this will understand.
 Idk it's five in the am.... I might be making no sense at all.
Which brings me to my next subject.
Music.
I have an awful abnormal sleep pattern right now.
Not that I'm blaming anyone...
But I have been re-introduced to local music, and just got back from a show tonight.
After my friend that would usually take me to see local artists passed, I stopped going to check it out.
I got back into it for a while, when I was supporting some awful return lds missionary.
After that blew over I was kinda done.
But damn... I forgot how nice live music is. And how talented people are.
Music to my ears is like chocolate ice cream to my tongue. The end.
Turtle.
Some guy at a local stupid Walmart was selling BABY turtles.
And my excuse at first was just to look at them.
Then it was, oh maybe my sister will want one. (Cause she is a pet caretaker, if you may).
So I got him. His name is Vincent Michelangelo.
After the artists.
His he is gorgeous.
And he is a speedy little butt.
But... When I gave him to my sister Kristen,
The next morning I woke up, I missed Vincent.
I missed a turtle.
After one day...
Never thought I'd get so attached, so fast. To a turtle.
But I am. And I like him. And I like just the way things are, between me and him.
Maybe someday I can have him again.
Nexxxxt
I'm gonna play ping pong and switch back to music.
I forgot a couple things and I'm apparently too lazy to scroll up and add more there,
So here it will be.
Songs I have been digging lately are:
Intro, by Xx
Born to Die, Lana del Rey (don't judge, you either dig or ya don't)
Panic Station, Muse
Any music by Crystal Castles
Queen/Mika/Lily Allen radio.
THEN... Tonight.
I heard a group just doing a mic check,
And they got carried away with a few measures from "these arms of mine" by Ottis redding.
I thought I had died and gone to heaven. So gorgeous,
I had almost forgotten how much of a sucker I am for old love songs!
Ben E. King, Frank Sinatra, Ottis, the Temptations, etc.
Gosh I am a sucker! I can't tell you why, I. Just. Am.
Okay,
Now as far as work goes,
I work at a bridal store!
It's a simple job, but I like it.
And I feel bad for everyone that has to listen to my stories all the time,
But I like what I do and I feel I do good in it.
Now, in conclusion, since that is not my goal as far as a career goes,
I have finally decided what I am going to go to school for.
To be a midwife!
I have such a passion for helping others am relating to others,
And I completely support natural birthing. It meets in the middle of nursing mother/baby
But not working in a hospital (:
I am so excited, so this fall I will start school for my health sciences degree.
Wish me luck. Cause I'll need it. School and me... That's like trying to put tuna on a peanut butter sandwich... It just. Doesn't. Happen.

Well. That's enough of that.
Wanna see some pictures?
I wish I could post some. Found out my phone isn't gonna let me. So next blog (which will be soon, I promise) it will just be a photo dump! (:

another post another day

Hello there



its amazing what you can learn just by living.
school, religion, history, etc. are all great things,
but even without that, you can still learn from everything around you.

its interesting what i have learned lately, 
especially about the human mind and people and their mannerisms. 

its almost the end of november, and i think i should list a few things i am
ever so grateful for. 

im grateful for forgiveness
im grateful for my the ones in my family that show appreciation and love
im grateful for my iPhone, so i can always have a decent camera on hand(:
im grateful for my freedom to do what i want, because of the many people 
that fought for this country. and my freedom of being on my own 
i am grateful for my education, and knowledge that i gain every day.
i am grateful for shoes, and blankets, and treats. because many in the world
do not have that luxury. 


i feel satisfied with life right now, because i am finally doing what i want to do
and starting a whole other chapter in my life. 
when peoples true colors come out, or what colors you see in them
(metaphorically speaking)
but i am glad they come out eventually, because its good to know. 
and it is eye-opening to see how each persons values and where their priorities lay

ps i heart salt lake city

heres some pictures of my life as of late-

                          photos from my old roommates wedding in august

                  a symphony on sara's birthday
 my new friend from germany, he is traveling the world with just        a backpack and a guitar. 
i guess in germany they don't have a walmart, and they make fun of it, so he got a good kick of acutally going.
    this is copper. i was his mommy, until he got too big :(
 kimbra concert at the depot in october! love her and i might have cried a little when she first came on stage...
    look at that cheesy smile! i was more stoked than you know.
                    we even held her tamborine!
                                         day of the dead for halloween at work
                            princess peach, and finn from adventure time, for the family halloween party
 my new favorite disney princess. i have scottish blood too, you know.
 cat in a purse. its like putting a baby in those things when you have to get stuff one around the house, but in a purse with a cat instead. you can see he is thrilled.
 vegas for my birthdayn 2013 (: savin my change for the slots!
 passed my cna test at the school
 dyed my hair. from middle part with a melt, to zooey bangs and a dark brown to red melt.
 mhmm true....

everthing a woman should be...

almost everything.
because no one is perfect.
who is this woman,
audrey hepburn of course
she is my icon.
i wanted to post a few pictures not very many have seen,
as well as giving a few reasons why i love 
this gorgeous example of a woman.
here it is...
audrey has many pictures with a cigarette in her mouth. 
she made anything she touched, look classy
although personally, i still think smoking will never be appealing, even if audrey hepburn is posing with it.

this is her fawn. i love her uniqueness and kindness for animals. i believe she also had a yorkee.
in the famous movie 'breakfast at tiffany's'-audrey had a cat. and i think thats why i like that movie so much.
you see, she has a cat without a name, that she just calls cat.
the cat symbolizes her in the movie, that they are both free beings and they dont belong to anyone.
that film is a masterpiece, 
the end scene is classic and sums up the true meaning of independence and companionship together.

i had to share this one, because if you know the slightest about me, you would know that this is my passion. 
gowns.
i am absolutely in love with the simplicity of this elegant picture,
and if i had it my way, she'd be modeling for me.

not many are aware that audrey had depression.
hard to believe, huh?
it gives me hope because although everyone has trials and weaknesses, we can still be great people by inspire others, being an example to someone, and to appreciate all of life's moments.

she was a mother. 
of two, actually.
that to me, 
is one job alone. and takes so much effort, love, and patience.
another unknown fact is that she miscarried twice.
what a strong woman.


the one requirement for boy-short hair:
a beautiful face.
and audrey had just that. 

the deer with the dear.
i know that we would have been best friends,
she takes her fawn to the grocery store.


you know when you see a picture of someone, 
and you see a pose that is exactly their feature,
because in real life thats the way they stand or sit?
do you know what i am talking about?
if you do,
you know that when you notice that in a picture about someone they are a true personality. 
audreys poses were her own,
which makes me believe that she seems to be a true person.


again with the hair,
you know how hideous this would look on anyone but her?
yet she looks flawless.

"For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone."
huh, so thats her secret why she is so stinkin pretty.
what wise advice to be projected from ones thoughts.

mommy picture again.
is she the cutest?!?



"I never thought I'd land in pictures with a face like mine."
goes to show you how true the saying is-
"you are your worst critic."
even one of the most wonderful-looking people in this world do not know their visual appearance that others see.
Audrey Hepburn died when i was about a year old.
i believe in after life.
and oh, do we have some talking to do...
