"sweet dispositions" when i'm with this one :)

i love this picture

What an amazing night! I was almost brought to tears by Sweet Disposition. I would post the video but I'm so disappointed with the video footage from this camera. It's absolutely horrible! Picture quality is great but the video is hideous. Actually, I will post my footage so you can see just how horrible the quality is. 

photographs: all photos were taken with sony cybershot dsc-tx10 waterproof 16.2mp (besides the obvious instagram pictures)

Here you are
And the feeling feels good
Don't know if you know it
But I think you should

Tell me it's alright
Tell me we can make this thing tonight

Feeling a change, in the air
Hallelujah, I love you
You ready? Cause I couldn't be happier than right now
See if you know it
Should be with me until the end of time

I'm feeling it, I'm feeling a change
I'm feeling it in the air
I'm feeling it, I'm feeling a change
I'm feeling it in the air

To look the other way, to get what you want
Throw out your troubles find your song
Cause there's a change, change in the air
In the air, in the air

Just one more minute here with you
All I'd give to have this come true
Can you feel it too? Can you feel this heart beating in time?
Wishing it was yours but it's gotta be mine
Couldn't believe everything I felt
You walked in you saw me just melt

I'm feeling it
I'm feeling a change
I'm feeling it in the air

To look the other way, to get what you want
Throw out your troubles find your song
Cause there's a change, change in the air

To look the other way, to get what you want
Throw out your troubles find your song
Cause there's a change, change in the air

Don't close that door, don't walk away
Don't shut your eyes, you can hear me say
I love you now more than everyday
It's okay

Give every bit to have you here
Give every moment to see your tear
Give everything I've got from now to my last breath

I'm feeling it
I'm feeling a change
I'm feeling it, in the air

To look the other way, to get what you want
Throw out your troubles find your song
Cause there's a change, change in the air

To look the other way, to get what you want
Throw out your troubles find your song
Cause there's a change, change in the air
In the air

Ch-ch-changes

Whoa. I guess its been an entire month since I've last posted. It's been crazy hectic since I've been back from Santa Barbara. Between working full time, being completely sucked into the entire 50 Shades of Grey series, and being in a long distance relationship, there was very little time for blogging. (Side note: TOTALLY recommend the 50 Shades series. It's like reading Twilight but with BDSM lol. I would recommend reading it on Kindle or an Kindle app since there are some pretty big vocab words :/ and on the Kindle, you just have to tap and wah-lah, you have the definition. I guess all that money that my parents spent on SAT prep classes didn't help.)

THEN... I got completely sucked into re-watching the entire Veronica Mars series (which I own on DVD lol). Used to love that show. Now that it's summer, there's nothing left to watch on my Hulu queue... besides Melissa & Joey (yes, I'm trying hard to hang onto the 90s, so sue me lol). I'm definitely waiting for the new Gossip Girl season and Once Upon a Time to come out of DVD so I can just watch the entire season at once. None of this waiting a week for the next episode (hold up... yes I know I'm lame. It's so fun though :)).

So many changes are brewing and I've been extremely anxious for the future. My nights have been pretty tiring since I've been dreaming non-stop. Too bad I can't really remember what I'm dreaming about. I guess it's that worry-wart gene being extra activated lately. Not sure what the future will bring but I'm hoping good things will come to those who wait.

I will begin posting as soon as I get some time to organize all my pictures. It's really hard when I'm half using my phone and half using my Powershot and the pictures are seriously EVERYWHERE. Ugh... it really bothers me when my photos are so disorganized. But yes, do look forward to some posts soon! I have a weekday off this week so I think I'll make a date with the computer then. Until then, Happy Monday and have a great week!

Santa Barbara Weekend

Santa Barbara: Celebrating birthdays and friendship!

Apr. 28 (sat): Since I had work til 10p on Friday, I started off Saturday by driving up to Santa Barbara to meet up with my friends who had been there the night before. Didn't get much sleep on Friday night either since I'd been reading 50 Shades of Grey so I went to bed at 5am and started my journey to Santa Barbara at 10a. The drive on the 101 is absolutely beautiful and the windy-ness of the road makes driving on that freeway so much fun. What I didn't enjoy was coming to a complete stop and then picking up speed again every 10 minutes throughout the freeway.

posing outside the hotel lol. camera was on one of our cars :)

lunch at cafe fresco

ahi tuna wrap with clam chowder

Bike time!

After biking, twas about wine-o-clock!

After wine-ing, we went back to the hotel and hung out at the pool for a little bit and then went to eat at The Palace Grill.

Apr. 29 (sun): Last day in Santa Barbara.

What a great weekend filled with great food and great company! Happy birthday to the three birthday boys, Nam, Matty and Gerald!

FF: Hot Pot Night

Feeling pretty solemn today. After working this entire weekend, I was super excited to have a day off but got into an altercation last night as well as just being a dozo in life and having it pointed out to you isn't exactly fun stuff. Plus last week I got my muffler and oxygen sensor stolen from my car while I was shopping so I had to take my baby into the shop. I guess that's part of the roller coaster ride of life. Some days you may feel like you're on top of the world (I would say especially those days that I have a green tea latte from Starbucks lol) and other days you feel like the smallest person on Earth. I constantly tell myself: I will be more careful and be careful who you trust. Ultimately, I am glad things like this are brought to my attention because what's done is done and all we can do is learn from our mistakes. Now that that rant is over, I'll go on to the post.

A couple of weeks ago my friends put on a hot pot night at one of their apartments. It was super fun and I ate so much that whenever I would laugh, I seriously thought I was going to barf... yes, I was THAT full.

outfit of the day: katniss braid, tiffany's necklace, h&m denim shirt and strip shirt, red toms
