Blog Changes and such...

Hello hello hello!  My dear readers.  It has been a hot minute since our last run in. Bummer.

Well, I've been getting inspired by other bloggers, and fashion, and music, and all those awesome sauce things!  I've decided to not always worry about blogging everyday, which obviously I haven't been doing a top notch job at. haha.  So, I'm thinking we're gonna try something new.  A daily posting, but more fun.

Music Mondays... 5 songs that I'm digging for that week.

Tips Tuesday... some random tips about who knows what, but it'll be creative.

Wish Wednesday... who says we can only make wishes when we blow out our bday candles? not I, I say.

Therapy Thursday... A small venting session, nothing mean or hateful, just random thoughts... so, my life.

Fashion Friday... Maybe some snapshots of my outfits, some other people's outfits. Anything fashion.

Style Saturday... Hair, makeup, nails, etc.  Style for miles.

Summer Sunday... Pictures, songs, activities, anything relating to the summer season! :)

We shall see how all of these ideas work, I just need to be more productive and stick to a task.  I don't even know if there are really people who read these posts, but it's completely worth a shot.  Right?  I have fun rambling, and thinking that I'm witty. haha Hope you do too.

I need to start doing a daily booth or something, and display some of my favorite outfits.  Sound good?  Perf. 

Well, I hope everyone is having a lovely week... Monday was my first day as an intern, totally stoked.  Tuesday was spent with my big bro, Charlie, for his birthday.  We went to Union Terminal, and strolled through the museum for hours.  And, last night was Dollar Burger Night last night... also known as Four Quarter Burger Night!  Love that.  Tonight, we may hit up Salsa on the Square.  But we shall see. 

Have a great night!

Love and glitter...

New Week, New Goals, New Ideas

I need to take back my life, and get on the right track... It's time to stop letting life live me, and for me to start living life.  How cliche. But so accurate.  I have parts of my interning duties today... more to come with that.  As well as I need to get back on making my blog really me.  

SONG OF THE DAY:

One of my fave bands.  So good.  Too bad they're from Denmark or something.

Have a beautiful Monday.

Oh No, Go Norse...

Marina and the Diamonds. Love her, been listening to her for a while...

Today was a success. I got to see the lovely Joey, and we chatted for hours.   About nothing, about something, about everything.  Haha I miss our random conversations in Starbucks throughout the semester... but we were able to catch up a bit tonight.  Can't wait to hang out with him more!  We got to mingle at the orientation for incoming Freshman tonight, and I saw some old high school friends... I miss CCHS! awwww. But I love NKU! Woohoo GO NORSE!!! I can't wait to get back to the classrooms, and learn.  It's great catching up with friends, and seeing new faces.  I'm looking forward to no longer being a Freshman... but where has the time gone?  It seems like it was only yesterday that I was that lost-looking Freshman at orientation.  Ohhh how they grow up so fast. :) 

I'm done rambling...

Happy Fathers Day!

To make up for yesterday... Songs of the day/weekend? 

HAPPY FATHERS DAY to all the daddies!!!!  :)

My dad used to sing this to me all the time :) awwww. Love ya daddy.

No matter how much we argue with them... we love our parents. Admit it.  I know I'd be lost without mine.  We may disagree at times, but we need them.  My dad is awkward and quiet, but that's him-- and that's why I love him.  My coarse, wavy hair is from him, and it's something that makes me, well, me.  hahaha Thanks dad.  Love ya!

Dreams. Never will be...

As of late, I've been having some random dreams... but for me, they're really not that random.  The usual happens: I fall in love, and then I wake up. Cute, right?  Just like in real life. Not exactly.  Anywho... Do you believe that dreams mean something, that they can predict the future?  Or do you think it's just our imaginations being creative in the wee hours of the night?  Is it just a combination of things that have happened to us during the day... which follow us to dreamland?  Who knows.  I'm sure there are some scientific studies and such, but who has time for that... kidding.

On a different note, I am pleased to say that I am making a difference in my life again. Whew.  I have gotten some scholarships to pay for school, thank the lord.  And, I applied to be a tutor to elementary students.  I'm perfect for that!  If you know me, you'll know that I adore helping others, and children are cool cats.  I worked as a tutor in high school as well.  Also, this whole PR thing should be working out for me in the near future, but more details on that later.  

I'm craving some adventure, some random road trip... maybe a mini vacation.  Mexico wasn't enough! hahha I'm thinking Chicago maybe, I've never been.  And of course, NYC is always an option.  I was there this time last summer, let's do it again! :)  Who knows. I'm just happy to be living, and being able to enjoy these beautiful summer days, and nights.  

Song of the day: 

Stay classic.

Lazy, Crazy, Hazy Days of Summer...

So, today I have failed to get my lazy bum off of the couch, and it's been glorious.  Perfect, right?  I think so.  As any summer goes, for myself, there's a lot of laying around the house while enjoying the air conditioner; a lot of movie watching and various reruns, followed up by maybe a few naps.  Facebook stalking is a must, as well as jamming to random music... as always.  The night usually is filled with either much of the same, or maybe a random adventure with the friends or fam.  This summer varies slightly from the last.  Last summer, I had a partner in crime.  And when I say this expression, I don't really mean crime... obviously.  Rather, someone who I could partake in random summer acts with.  We used to roam the streets of our small town, while cruising the "strip".  We used to attend art galleries, and have an endless number of photo shoots, we'd shop for hours, and eat sno cones in the sunlight.  We'd go see random movies, and drive around looking at the stars.  Combine all of this and it may sound like the perfect love interest, but one small detail went missing in my description... he was gay.  Pay no attention to that, those adventures were awesome, and we miss those simple days.  Now, he has a boyfriend and works a lot, not to mention his summer class.  Sounds like his life is together, and what's up with mine?  Who knows.  I watch way too many romantic teen movies to judge my life.  Since our small fallen out, I have yet to find that friend that I can spend so much time with.  We spent every summer day together, and now we never seen one another.  A few texts here and there, and some Facebook posts, but that's not the same.  Anyway, I am still on the search for that person, that thing, or maybe... dare I say it, that job (ugh), to fill my time.  Why am I being this petty little girl with all this hope for bigger and better things?  You tell me.  All I know is that I am looking forward to whatever comes my way... Already, I have been offered an internship for the summer, to get my foot in the door with the PR circuit.  I am excited, and ready to take on the challenge.  This will hopefully keep me busy enough to stay off the couch. :) hahha.  

Why did I just expose to you such a thing?  Because that's what blogging is about... your thoughts, pictures, memories, experiences, etc.  Never have I been able to open up fully to people, but that's just me.  I don't have any dark secret... I just chose to keep to myself.  Others like to open up to me, they feel comfortable around me.  I love that.  It's such a great feeling to know that people feel safe enough around me, to express their stories and not worry about passing judgement.  Thank you secret sharers.  :)  

Now, I think I shall be done exposing you to the random thoughts in my head.  Off to watch some more Pretty Little Liars. ;)  Thanks for reading, and keep in contact.

oh and some music for the road....

 

MUSIC FOR DAYSSSS...

Sorry I haven't posted the cool tunes as of late, so here are some good ones...

Walk The Moon, a local craze!!!! :) Get you some Cincinnati.

I've been jamming out to this song for at least a year, but it just now seems to be catching on... enjoy. 

Apparently this is my theme song. Thank you Mother Monster :)

Hope you enjoy!

New blog/Song of the day...

Here's the link to my Blog about some of the random-ness I experienced while in Mexico : http://nkumexicoadventures.blogspot.com/

Also, here's your song of the day:

Pretty chill... her voice is killer! 

Now that I have completed my last assignment, I can finally live up my summer!  I had been trying to set aside time to work on my blog for school, but now I can breathe easy.  I am finished, and will be able to relax knowing that I am done.  What up Sophomore year of college?! Speaking of college... orientation started yesterday for incoming Freshman.  I'm still pretty bummed that I didn't get a position as an Orientation Leader, but there's always next year! I hope that this summer is amazing... I've already done so much in such a short amount of time, hopefully my lucky continues.  I'm looking forward to the free Indie concert series every Friday on Fountain Square, Dollar Burger Nights every Wednesday, as well as random road trips.  My mom has this crazy idea that I need to learn responsibility, and get a job.  I know what responsibility is... but I guess it is time for me to get a job, and maybe, I don't know, LEARN TO DRIVE! hahha I'm sure people are tired of chauffeuring me around town.  But all will happen in due time, my dear.  For now, I shall sit and relax.  Summer is about relaxing, having fun, hanging out with friends and family, and soaking up the rays... because I burn too easily, we'll stick with the other options :)  Hello Summer 2011, I know we've known each other for about a month now, but now I have finished my last assignment, let's get reacquainted! ;) 

Hope all is well.  Have a lovely Tuesday.

Chill days with Lemonade.

So, yesterday was a great day: filled with cork screws, loops, sweat, and a chlorine canyon... King's Island!  The Beast beat me up, and now I have some nice bruises from the shaking and jerking.  Whatever.  We had a good time.  Today I shall relax and finish up my other blog about Mexico. :)  Not much to rant about today, but I shall share a song of the day.  A friend of mine introduced me to this guy's sound...

Enjoy your Monday.

I just realized a few things.

I haven't been blogging much lately... the whole social network scene has taken over my life!! Between Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and this... I have to strategically post things on each one. :)  Thank goodness for technology. Can I get an amen?! thank you. 

So, I'm going to try and get back to the old blogger that I used to be.  My random thoughts are for Twitter.  My goofy pictures and creeping are for Facebook.  Random reblogged pictures are for Tumblr.  And my rants and complicated thoughts shall be saved for here, along with "songs of the day" and maybe some outfit pictures.  Let me know what you think.  If anyone actually reads these posts.  Either way, it's an outlet for me to be creative, expressional, and be goofy.  Thank you :) 

Song of the day: 

Now I'm off to another event with some lovely gays in my life, dancing the night away.  Pictures I'm sure shall be taken.

Love and glitter...
