I need a floor lamp for my room. I was trying to read the Hunger Games last night and the ceiling light just wasn't cutting it. Rather than dealing with the harsh lighting I explored the house until I found a lamp that wouldn't be missed...I think...it's from our living room so I could be wrong...anyway. Since I don't exactly sleep in my room full time finding a cute lamp isn't exactly at the front of my mind. It needs to be though. It's a problem I run in to every time I come home. Decorating never ends. If you happen to know where I can find a cute WHITE (base/shade) floor lamp let me know!
High School Musical Pandora station
I've been listening to it more than Justin Bieber or Mariah Carey Christmas
What's wrong with me?
NEIGHBOR TREATS: they are going to fatten me right up one friendly gesture at a time. Heaven help the holidays.
Today I managed to read ALL 374 pages of the hunger games. I also went to the gym for 2 hours, watched a movie, and went to see a christmas carol with the fam. I have every intention of reading the entire second book tomorrow. LOVE THEM. It's simply movie preparation. It's kind of like marriage preparation, but better. Liam Hemsworth is in the picture.
(notice the armani briefs. who does that?! ARMANI?! pretty sure he could buy out hanes with 1 pair of those...)
So every year an epic battle occurs between Hannah and I. We have 2 advent calendars in the house, one that is fun and you get put the little stuffed animals /people/stars on, and one that is more grown up. In the past Hannah and I would alternate days for putting up the pieces of the calandar. Every time it was my day, I would decorate the calander the way I wanted it. Stars on the ground, trees in the sky, a wise man in the manger, a sheep as the new star...it was great. Hannah didn't appreciate my creative abilities though. She would get SO frustrated which would just make it that much funnier for me. Finally 2 years ago she about blew a gasket so my mom banned me to the grown up calendar....uhm...boo....it's not like I was 18 or anything...So now we get to the real story. The day after I came home from school I noticed that the latest piece of the calendar had not been put up. Hannah was laying on the couch so I asked if I could do the honors and she said yes!!!! YIPEE! It was a star and guess where I put it...? No, I did not put it where Joseph goes, I put it in the sky! Where it goes! When Hannah saw this her face literally lit up. "You put it in the right place!" My mom came in from the kitchen and she was seriously impressed to "Wow Rylie! You've learned a lot at college! Did you learn that trees don't go in the sky too?" We actually haven't covered that in any of my classes yet so I am not promising that the rest of the pieces will go in the right spot, but hey, it's an improvement.
i HATE when i look great but have nothing to do.
or anyone to impress.
it's the pits, i'll tell ya that much.
i can take all the pictures i want, and make excuses to go to the grocery store but lets be honest, it's on these occasions the store is barren.
it is ALWAYS the nights you refuse to get ready that people want to socialize or you see your entire high school and their dog while grabbing some deodorant from the store. sa-weeeeet.
