Busy Body = Me

Wow. A whole week and no blogging. I am terribly sorry that I have slacked off of my blogging duties, but I'm a busy girl and this week has been the busiest!! I moved out of my apartment last weekend and the crazy rush of that has set the tone for my week. I'm not sure about you guys, but I'm beginning to wonder if life will EVER slow down...is this what it means to be a grown up? Don't get me wrong, I love the hustle and bustle that has become my life, but I have noticed a trend--each year my life moves faster and faster! It has raised many important questions: Does my brain deceive me? Am I getting more and more cynical and just labeling it as being "observant"? Am I desperately trying to hold on to my childhood? And can I really, I mean REALLY, pull off the skinny jeans look? I'm not stick thin and I don't really own any Ugg boots, nor do I really LIKE Ugg boots (are Ugg boots even "in" anymore? I can never tell. My sister generally handles all things fashion-related for me, and I hate to ask her endless questions over what looks right and what will make all the other pretty girls point and laugh). Okay, so maybe that last question has nothing to do with my crazy life, but it is an important question and I would love to have it answered. It is right up there with my question of "How does one combat a rapidly approaching caffeine addiction?" But back to the point I was trying to make....I am a busy person, which makes for some late nights and cranky mornings, but I am loving every minute of it. I am at a point where I have no idea where my life is going, but I know that it is traveling there at warp speed (Don't worry, I always travel with a seat belt)!
On a very different note...everyone is traveling this summer!! I am going to Australia and New Zealand, my friend Brittney will soon take off for China (insert Chinese music, preferably from the soundtrack of Mulan), my friend Sarah is leaving for Germany, Kali is in France AS I TYPE THIS, and my friend Brooke is on her way to Indiana--which is less glamorous, but how can you beat GOING HOME?! Turns out I have adventurous friends, who knew?!

Jamee,
Your blog always evokes a great emotion in me when I read it...all your awesome questions and the way you ask them seriously have me cracking up...and the one where you talked about your dad had me all teared up (in a good way...not just because I know and love him too but because it is really awesome how open and honest you are about such things in life)Keep up the good work...love hearing about your life. BTW...I'm not sure life really ever does slow down. I'm still running as fast as I can to keep up..good thing I have on my '2RedSneaks'!
p s if you get an answer to that Ugg question go ahead and post it because enquiring minds want to know! :)

Well, from the perspective of a person who is a little bit older than you, I do think it slows down. My life in grad school was WAY crazier than it is now- primarily because now I have a set schedule! Sure, I may work hard and never stop running at work, but I know that once I unlock my door, that time is mine to do with it what I want- which usually involves a healthy dose of vegging out! As for the Uggs- no, they are no longer in style, imho. Well... unless it's snowing. They are, after all, made for snow! If you're wanting to go for the skinny jeans look, try them with some tall, sleek, heeled leather boots. You will rock that look, and the height on the heels slims you down even more! :) Hope I helped!! Love you!

Well, I may not be the most educated or experienced person you know but... I do think it is a top priority to get a truthful answer to the Ugg question. After all, they originated from the Aussie's. The sheepskin footwear is my fav and if visiting 'The Grove' in LA you will see I'm not alone. The real test to answering this question would be to see if the Aussie's are still wearing them. Let us know!

i suck even worse at blogging... but this post hits me real hard. my life is so busy! i'm getting caught up in the day to day of being a poor, bartending, college student while i watch all my friends graduate, move on, and become real adults.... and i still have no idea who i'm gonna be "someday" or "when i grow up." its pretty scary, but the way i look at it is this: i've just got a LOT of my life ahead of me :)


oh and france was awesome, you've inspired me to update my pathetic blog and tell you all about it (my one follower).
