My mother named me Sara. This is a shrine to my short attention span. I happen to enjoy receiving emails from random strangers. No, really I do: snsween1088@gmail.com |

[Sorta] Smile Friday!
It’s Friday. But for once, Monday will be the day I let myself relax and break begins.
However, Adrienne is here, just watched When Harry Met Sally for the second time this week, and am going to make fettuccine alfredo with artichokes.
Scavenger hunt tonight and gingerbread houses tomorrow. Yayyy.
(And yes, I saw New Moon last night. Judge me all you want, but sometimes you gotta give in. Yes, it was better than the first one despite the nauseating revolving camera shots. And every time Taylor Lautner came on the screen, all I could think was, “Forgive Father, for I have sinned.” Jailbait never looked so good. Also, can we acknowledge that the music was surprisingly good?)

one of the clients tonight can “read” auras.
i was told:
- i pretend to not care about things that upset me (true, but applicable to many people)
- i’m going home for a birthday tomorrow (true, not applicable to a lot of people)
- i will be approached by a male in a white vehicle and that i should be wary of his motives (bloom abductor)
Oh roomie, please do not get approached by the bloom abductor! I would miss you too much, and who would walk with me to the store to get rasberry lemonade and fried chicken? Or let me steal their diet cokes? Or reorganize the supreme collection of cheese in our fridge? Or flex pizza and milk for me when I’m broke? NOBODY.
Have I told you lately that I love you Lisa?
let’s not blend in
I shall not conform to this world.

Despite some of the interesting artistic license taken in this movie, that is exactly why I loved it. The cinematography was beautiful, particularly this scene.
Too bad someone “borrowed” this from me freshmen year and never returned it. Sigh.
03x21 - Greatest Hits
(via classyliving)
I guess it all began in high school when I was motivated to accomplish everything. It became clear to me very quickly that with little effort, good grades were easily attainable. At least I considered it little effort. Looking back on it now, I realize that if you want something enough, the effort blends into the end result. Every accomplishment makes the work along the way seem effortless.
When you say that people are naturally inclined towards a particular talent or activity, does that mean they just have arrived at that effortless endpoint earlier than others? The endpoint where you wonder what all the frustration originated to begin with.
I wonder where and when I decided it would be “interesting” or “rewarding” or “stimulating” to be an editor. [Assuming these are things that one would want out of a job/career]. I can’t honestly imagine myself doing the same thing every day for the rest of my life. Not that I’m required to adhere to that, because most people do not. The same feeling I get when I think of marriage - the idea of being with someone for that amount of time…(forever?). Maybe there is a point in your life where the addiction to change evolves into a yearning for stability. For contentedness.
Let’s face it, though, there are many instances in which one can be content.
I’m still not sure whether we can completely determine our own state of being content (note the avoidance of the term “happy”, way too loaded to be employed in this context). I like to advocate the idea of mental ability to feel a certain way, but my life isn’t exactly the best illustration. And by that, I mean my decisions. I have been on a range of mind-altering drugs. I have transferred. I have avoided relationships and people. I might even go as far to say I have avoided being loved, though, I can never know the truth in that.
Where do I go from here?
Right now I am far away from love.
far away from knowing what I am doing next year.
far away from being out of debt.
And I am not entirely bothered by it.
Should I be? Society tells me yes, but worrying solves nothing. This is far from productive “stress”.

I just found out that one of the girls I worked with this summer at camp was murdered yesterday while she was serving as student missionary in Yap.
Please keep her family in your prayers. Her family was such a joy to me this summer, and I cannot imagine how devastated they are.
Remember to cherish the ones you love today.
