Random moment of College Love!

I am so very proud of my university's baseball team. The Wolfpack *arrrooooo!* is in the College World Series for the second time in the school's history and they are doing so well. Tonight we play Crapolina for the third effin time (whoever managed to arrange that needs to be pinched a few times), but I am still super excited. Soccer boys are my favorite to watch, for obvious reasons :), but baseball boys are rising in the ranks. Too freakin cute. Austin and Rodon are my favfavfav cause they are adorbs! I am usually not this obnoxious about things I like but you must excuse me just this once. Yummmmy! 

Random Moment of Movie Love!

So not for the first time I have fallen in love with a movie! And to little surprise for the peanut gallery, it is a chick flick. Growing up I was such a tomboy, disregarding pink as an actual color and refusing to wear my hair in anything but a ponytail. As I am growing older, however, my taste has definitely evolved into more of a feminine creature. Now don't get me wrong, I still enjoy wearing the collection of nike athletic shorts that I have managed to acquire throughout the past couple of years, but my closet, and my likings, have shifted towards maxi skirts and curly tresses. 

This little exposition (was supposed to, at least) leads me to chick flicks, and my new favorite, This Means War, with Reese Witherspoon, Chris Pine, and Tom Hardy. Oh my lanta those two guys are on my crush list officially after this movie because they are on different sides of the spectrum when it comes to the type of guy they represent but they both manage to be genuine and completely adorable. Oh goodness I love it. I think I watched it for the 8th time today and its only been out for less than a year, I do believe. LOVE LOVE LOVE! And not only is it super cute, its full of action because the two guys, Tuck and FDR, as field agents for the CIA, along with being full of wit and humor with Lauren's best friend being a character played by Chelsea Handler. Cuteness, action-packed, laugh-worthy, yes!

Hair is the Flair :)

I"M BACK! I know it's been a while but I bring good things :) 

I think these hairstyles are absolutely adorable, and because I have a not so secret obsession with braids, most of these have them :) If you like these you can see a ton more on my Pinterest page, another one of my obsessions.

Countdown . . .

1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 more days!

On this special occasion, I have some of my favorite quotes from the very first book : 

"They don't know know we're not allowed to use magic at home. I'm going to have a lot of fun with Dudley this summer..." - Harry

"I hope you're pleased with yourselves. We could all have been killed - or worse, expelled. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to bed."- Hermione

"And no wonder we couldn't find Flamel in that Study of Recent Developments in Wizardry," said Ron. "He's not exactly recent if he's six-hundred and sixty-five, is he?"  - Ron

"Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!"- Dumbledore

 

"Meant ter turn him into a pig, but I suppose he was so much like a pig anyway there wasn't much left ter do."- Hagrid

 

"You haven't got a letter on yours," George observed. "I suppose she thinks you don't forget your name. But we're not stupid - we know we're called Gred and Forge."- Fred and George

quote to live by . . .

This is my all time favorite quote, and it reminds me of my father. He always tells me to do this when I have a tough decision to make.

"When faced with two choices, simply toss a coin. It works not because it settles the question for you, but because in that brief moment when the coin is in the air, you suddenly know what you were hoping for."

 I hope to one day get a tattoo with "simply toss a coin" and an image of his favorite coin on the inside of my arm or wrist. I know it would mean a lot to him :)
