i ♥ noah and the whale

Have you ever come across someone where you're like, WHOA.  It feels like we've known eachother forever and I just learned your name...

Well, that's how I feel about Noah and the Whale.  Just take a look at this music video.  Pure bliss.  Plus, they got their name from the movie The Squid & the Whale and are devout followers of Wes Anderson.  How perfect are they?   LOVE LOVE LOVE.

Doesn't this scene from Une Femme est Une Femme make you smile?  Love it.

going the distance

Yesterday I saw Going the Distance with my mom and Nicole.  We loved it!  It was such a fun watch, full of jokes and good music.  It was also a lot more realistic than 95% of chick flicks made today.  I've always loved Drew, but seeing Justin Long with her (they date on and off in real life) made me fall in love with him too!  So sweet.

Lately I have been questioning EVERTHING.  Not to mention kind of freaking out about getting into the school I want to, how on earth I would even pay for it if I did, and if I'm really cut out for the real world.  So I thought it would be nice to sit back and remember some of my favorite quotes.  And remember...you know, I'm just Kaylie, the girl with a hat on.  (BTW:  Best.  Short film.  Ever.)

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.  -Buddha

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.”  -e.e. cummings

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

Farewell To Summer from Starr Crow on Vimeo.

Three days off...Time to finish Eat Pray Love (Can someone please pay ME to travel across the world to write about it?), antique shop, and perhaps do some sewing? 

Life is good.
