finding joy in my SAVIOR: through the beautiful, simple things of life…

today in class i literally LOST it.
i could NOT stop laughing for the life of me.
it was absolutely ridiculous.
& my teacher was definitely not happy.
…but there were just so many funny things happening–and you know my major weakness in life is laughter.
well it reminded me of first grade…i remember this moment of life SO vividly. i was just sitting in miss barnett’s class, i think we were going through our math lesson for the day, when my friend jenna turns around and begins to make funny faces at me. now you must understand, jenna had broken the bone in her nose prior to this, so she could seriously move her nose is absolutely EVERY direction–which makes for some really hilarious facial expressions. anyway, i began to laugh. and laugh. and laugh. till my teacher asked me to go to the back of the classroom and count to 100. which i did. then returned back to my seat, only to begin laughing harder because jenna started making faces again. so i got sent back to count to 300. then again to 500. and my parents got a written discipline notice to inform them of what i had done that day.
you would think i would have learned my lesson. but i didn’t. oops.
…i believe that e.e. cummings says it best:
guess today was not wasted(:

P.S. as i was writing this, a thought came to me: WHY THE HECK did jenna not get in trouble?!
there are just those days when you want to be home.
like today…
all i want is the comfort of home.
{i miss:}
sitting in the kitchen drinking coffee and chatting with my mother.
hanging out with my father and brother.
crafting.
random visits from friends.
cuddling with the scoob-ster.
…but most of all…
HOMEMADE FOOD.
it is awful here.
when [if] i get home on friday i am making something spectacular.
yum.

so today at starbucks i was just sitting at a table drinking my coffee and reading my Bible & this guy walks out the door and looks over at me and says :: hey, i like your book!
at first i didn’t really understand what he meant by that, so i kind of gave him a confused look.
he then clarified :: that’s a great book. don’t ever stop reading it….and you know what?! find a man who loves reading it too!
hahaha, thank you mr. random stranger.
its true though.

okay, confession :: so i got out of class early and i know i should be using this time wisely to work on my homework that is due tonight–but in all honesty, i kind of have been looking at this new blog i found. oops.
it’s just flat out the cutest blog i have ever read and i am obsessed.
how much do you love it?!

Lo
…sometimes i just really want to help boys go jean shopping.
a few tips:
no saggy butt.
make sure they are long enough for your legs.
if you can’t “pinch-an-inch” DON’T wear them.
if you can pinch 4, DON’T wear them.
bless their hearts.

if you ever want to avoid a awkward conversation // if you catch someone staring at you in the car // to avoid creepy people in general…
MAKE THIS FACE:
…saw this on good morning america this morning and about died laughing!
i am absolutely 100% positive that it will work in any given situation.
{confession :: i will admit i have done this while on the freeway, when people stare–it ALWAYS freaks them out.}

1. BOOOOOOKS!!!!
i literally cannot get enough of them.
if only i had time to read them all.
& yet i still buy them–it really is terrible.
most recent purchase from this weekend at women discipling women:
2. pretty little liars.
i find myself telling people about it (ones that don’t even watch it).
like it is something important and worthwhile to talk about–dumb. haha
but while we are on the subject…what is going on??!!
3. baker’s hot sauce.
yep. my mom and i had to stop by today and get more.
i always feel like a thief–but its free so its not wrong, right??
4. bargains.
lately i have not spent over $10 on an item.
it’s awesome.
5. [most recent addiction--hopefully it will not last long] TISSUE BOX.
it has been my best friend the past few days.
i can’t go anywhere without it!
it is quite embarrassing–in fact, the lady sitting next to me today was giving me the weirdest looks and i just felt so bad…but you can’t control your nose when you are sick! sorry about that, whoever you were!

1. when you borrow a dress from a friend & you are on your way to a party, then the zipper splits. what a glorious feeling.
2. when your mom asks you if she can dry your pants [and you think about how difficult it was to fit into them, even after they had already been worn for a while], so you are forced to reply :: “no! not this week! better hang them up!”
3. when you buy a few skirts from a thrift store and you read the tag and it says “dry clean only” and you think to yourself :: “ehh. what’s the worst that will happen?” & then proceed to soak them. together. thinking :: “hey, they’re old. they’ve been washed many times! they won’t bleed onto each other.” [forgetting about the previously read tag & disregarding the fact that they are -- teal, cream//strawberry stripes, & black]. oops.
4. when you get bleach on your black pants. so you then try to cover it up with a sharpie. [doesn't work--fyi.]
5. when the your swimsuit isn’t all that cooperative. [every one has had their issues at one point or another--but hey they make for great stories, right?]
6. when safety pins are your best friend…
7. when you spill ketchup on your white pants. its not like it ever happens when you’re wearing black or anything…
8. when you forget about the hole in your pants and then suddenly [with some odd movement] you hear :: riiiiiiiip. yup. it just got bigger. great.
9. when your yoga pants all of the sudden turn into high-waters–steve urkle anyone?!
“oops. did i do that?!”
10. when your tights get a run in them. and it just gets worse and worse.
CLASSY.
…anyone else have one to share?
xoxo
