“Learn to like what doesn't cost much.
Learn to like reading, conversation, music.
Learn to like plain food, plain service, plain cooking.
Learn to like fields, trees, brooks, hiking, rowing, climbing hills.
Learn to like people, even though some of them may be different...different from you.
Learn to like to work and enjoy the satisfaction doing your job as well as it can be done.
Learn to like the song of birds, the companionship of dogs.
Learn to like gardening, puttering around the house, and fixing things.
Learn to like the sunrise and sunset, the beating of rain on the roof and windows, and the gentle fall of snow on a winter day.
Learn to keep your wants simple and refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others.”

super unnatural

I'll be honest.
I have no consistency anymore.

All I want to do with free time is either:
1. Watch Reality TV on Food Network
or
2. Sleep

But. I have some good news.
Actually, I have a lot.

- My goofy brother is home from his mission. It's like he never even left. He's still Hilary Duff's biggest fan, enjoys chick-flicks with as much gusto as I, and is still the same peacemaker brother that I love.

- Kelsey just got hired at Menchie's. Which makes me life 10 times brighter. She's just a doll, and I'm ridiculously excited.

- I turn 19 in 43 days. But I leave the country in 44. How fantastic is that? So fantastic. Don't be surprised when I never shut up about it.

- I decided that I want to be involved in traveling. Just so I can travel. For cheap. Or for free. That would be so great.

But hey. Here are some pictures.



















If that first picture doesn't make you squirm...
I worry for you.
