About My Blog

I want this to be a place I can collect a variety of random things that catch my eye and/or inspire me. It can be photos, songs, poems, news articles or anything else that help me to evoke a mood, or refer to when I need a burst of creative inspiration.

It's pretty safe to assume that rock n' roll, California, hot guys, badass girls, books, movies, and music will be featured often. I'm going to try not to self-censor too much.

I encourage anyone reading my blog to play one of the music widgets while reading because it will definitely support the context to my writing. I almost always write with music playing unless it's a term paper for school.

Totally in LOVE with this song right now.

Kindle Love

I just got a Kindle from Amazon and I love, love, love it!! I've already read more in a week than I normally do in a month. I just finished reading Mockingjay, which is the final installment of the dystopian Hunger Games trilogy. This is one of my favorite types of genre in books, actually in movies too, for that matter. A girl basically gets sent into a type of futuristic gladiator ring and nothing is ever the same again. There is also a side-story romance, but it's more of a sub-plot than the main story. I loved it. It's a quick read, as they are considered "young adult" books, but they can get pretty violent and brutal, so fair warning.

January 2011

New Year's Resolutions finally made! I only made 3 this year but they're good.
  • #1 Live in the moment
  • #2 Don't procrastinate (just do it now)
  • #3 Let go of anxiety-it's not productive (in other words- quit trippin')
