more movies to see! it never ends...

Oh my goodness.  Both are so attractive.  I can't handle it!


I ♥ Jason Bateman.  'Nuff said.

Movies I have seen the last two weeks:  Despicible Me (loved it), Inception (OH MY GOODNESS SO GOOD), Dinner for Schmucks (Hilarious), and Ramona Beezus (So cute).

i miss you, plaid jacket. (but not so much you, biology homework)

 Do you ever feel like you're stuck in a rut with your wardrobe?  Well, for someone like me, it's a sad situation, because I love using clothes to show whatever crazy thing I'm into at the moment, whether it be fifties housewife (usually the case) or cowboys (I found some boots in Flag--sooooo excited to wear them).

  It's not so much a rut as an impatience.  Can't it be cooler out, already?  All I want to do is wear tights and cardigans and jackets and headbands (Maybe I am just experiencing GG withdrawal?).  Sometimes I start getting dressed and I realize that I am wearing 3492374938 more layers than is acceptable for summer in Arizona.  I do love the warm weather, but I think I love dressing for Fall and Winter just as much, if not more.  I think that I might be able to weather (pun intended) living somewhere else (like Portland, yeah!) with cold winters for this reason alone.  As long as I can wear some chunky sweaters and hats, life is good. 

i ♥ fall

Fall: decent weather, tights, the beginning of the holiday season...  Fall is a good situation, that I am really looking forward to.  Even better about Fall?  All my favorite shows come back on air!  And by favorite shows I pretty much mean Gossip Girl, Glee, and Bored to Death.  Speaking of Jason Schwartzman...We were basically made for eachother.  Not only is he short, but we have matching outfits:
Hahahha.  Anyway.  Happy Thursday!

happy things!

just hear me out

All my life I have been really short for my age.  This has worked out okay for me until these last few years. I don't mind being called short, but once I hear the words "little" or "middle schooler" I tend to be thrown over the edge.  I'm 17 and the world seems to think I'm 12!  I know what you're going to say.  "Be thankful.  When you're older you'll look younger than your friends."  Well, try to walk in my shoes (and yes, they are abnormally small, thanks for noticing).  Do you think it feels good to be called "a baby" when you're almost 18?  Do you think it feels great to hear, "You don't look old enough" to be in high school, to be driving, ect. when in the next few months you'll be applying for college?

I consider myself to be a pretty confident person, but constantly hearing these things really gets me down.  So next time you meet someone new, don't think their miniature size is a good ice breaker.  If they are anything like me (and I speak for all short people trying to grow "up"), they don't find it flattering to be mistaken as a middle-schooler.

Thanks!
