Hall & Oates // You Make My Dreams (from the 500 Days of Summer Soundtrack)
***don’t start playing the song until I cue you to do so later in this entry!

Yesterday, as I was lying in bed watching Heroes, moping about the sorry state of my weekend, I thought I heard something hitting my window. Thinking I had only imagined the noises, I continued watching my show. Then something heavier was thrown at my window, prompting me to open my blinds and see what was going on.

I look out my window and see Chris, dressed cutely in a maroon v-neck and black blazer, standing in the middle of my courtyard and gesturing at me to hold on a minute as he retreats to the table in the center of my courtyard and presses play on the boombox situated there, blasting the song above. And then he pulls this shit on me.

***play the song here!

By this point I was bawling and running down the stairs, so I didn’t even see this last one:

Then we embraced and kissed in my courtyard, as my roommates and neighbors cheered us along. It was very Say Anything meets 500 Days of Summer, and so so dramatic. And then he gave me these:

Yeah, you all saw this coming. Chris and I are back together!

Bon Iver // Skinny Love

I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately. I’ve spent the last week restless under my sheets, unsuspectingly walking out of my dreams into waking life at the deadest hours of the night. Sometimes there is a body next to me, and sometimes there isn’t, but the end result is always the same. I just lie in bed, staring at the ceiling, listening to every creak and whir as if in conversation with the night.

My love life is in shambles. My ex-boyfriend and I started dating again, but he’s still not ready to commit to me, so I’ve decided to sever him from my life. I uninvited him from my Halloween party, uninvited him from my life really, and I told him that I don’t want to see or speak to him anymore. He was the body that used to be in my bed, but now I want nothing to do with it or him. I want nothing to do with a body that is restless to be with other bodies.

And maybe this is all too honest, but I am just sick of feeling like I’m just a back-up plan, a convenience on the side. I don’t deserve this. I wake up in the morning, fall asleep at night, and spend all the hours in-between reminding myself that I don’t deserve to feel secondary to some other girl who I refuse to believe is prettier or more interesting than me.

So I’m detoxing. I’m getting rid of all of my current, ridiculous affiliations with men, because I don’t deserve to be idly wandering through this purgatory, waiting for someone to realize that I’m worth it. This isn’t worth my time. This isn’t worth my energy. This isn’t worth all of the love and the interest that I have stupidly wasted on these meaningless pursuits.

I’m walking out of this reality and into another, because I am too worthwhile of a person to settle with this shit.

All I do these days is put up with other people's bullshit.
I feel like I am just not enough for you.

  • Both: "..."
  • Girl 2: "Fuck the world?"
  • Girl 1: "Yeah I think that's what it is. Like F-M-L."
  • Girl 2: "F-M-L?"
  • Girl 1: "Fuck my life"
  • Girl 2: "Ohh...."

  • Ashley: What was your favorite Disney movie as a little kid?
  • Me: ...I think I really liked Aladdin
  • Ashley: Hahaha, Erin totally predicted you would say that!! Too funny. We were discussing how our favorite Disney princesses say a lot about our personalities.
  • Me: Hahahaha, of course I would pick the ethnic one, I mean really. I also used to have a big crush on Aladdin. Why, what were your guys' favs?
  • Ashley: Hers was Sleeping Beauty, mine was Pocahontas. And my poor sister with her terrible boyfriends...her favorite was Beauty and the Beast.
  • Me: Hahahahahaha, I'm putting this on Tumblr.
“Nothing can ever be worse than this” he thought. And then he went to show business.
Hahah, I love how his discomfort is so palpable in this picture.

“The CueLight uses a conventional pool table as it’s canvas and the paint brush is an overhead projector equipped with sensors and motion detectors. The projector creates images on the pool table based on how the game is played. As the balls are hit and roll around they reveal an image that seemingly appears underneath. The system is fully customizable with the ability to trail flames behind balls and project a pool of water on the table that ripples with the motion of the balls. Not including the cost of the pool table, the CueLight treatment will run you about $80,000.”
Trailing flames and rippling water? I feel like this would be cool if it wasn’t exorbitantly priced and absolutely superfluous.

I really love something about this picture…perhaps it’s the bondage undertones?
