unity

the other day i had the most inspirational lecture! a photo journalism professional came in and talked about how he always wanted to make a difference, and since taking photographs was something he happened to be extraordinarily talented at that was how he planned to change society. His photographs (I can't really describe them seems how he is trying to stay under the radar) were incredibly moving. They helped me realize some of the major problems that our society is facing today.

They also helped me realize that I am neither republican nor democrat, and i think it would be in the best interest of our country if we all became more united. I think it is incredibly important to formulate opinions on separate issues, but for me there are political issues from both sides that i can agree with, and the decisions i make while voting are supported on who i think will do the job correctly, instead of what party they are from.

just a thought.

lets get together yea yea yea

memorriaall dayy!!

can i just say that i have the most AMAZING friends that anyone in this world could ever ask for? i feel like genuine friends are people who make you a better person and want the best for you. my friends are constantly by my side looking out for me through everything. i love them all very very much and am soo grateful to be blessed with such amazing people in my life.

i am really excited for this weekend. its gonna be fairly low-key but excellent. ray ray and i are going back to issaquah to watch my sister and cousin for the weekend while my parents are out of town for their anniversary. we're hitting up alll the mexican restaurants because there is absolutely no good mexican food in the u-district (not legit mexican food at least). and we are hopefully having a craft night/movie night/ tennis sesh with caylie too cuz lets be real, everyone needs a craft night every once in a while and i haven't gone to see a movie in like 6 months soo its necessary. did i mention it is going to be absolutely gorgeous this weekend? what more could i ask for?


love & kisses

happy mom's day!

i know there are so many things that i need to be stressing about right now, but for some reason everything seems sooo incredibly peaceful it is hard to focus on anything! i'm not trying to be philosophical or anything, but i was reflecting on life and the future as i was driving home from my house (in issaquah) today, and i have soo many things to be grateful for. i have soo many amaaazing friends, i could not even tell you how incredible they are, i truly do love all of them and would do basically anything for them. not to mention the fact that i have the most spectacular family, they have been there for me every step of the way, they truly know me better than i know myself. i have nothing, nothing at all to complain about. i love seattle, i love UW, i love my house, i love my roommates, i absolutely love life and its' boundless opportunities.


and last but certainly not least,

i LOVE my mother!! she is the most amazing woman on the face of this planet. i do not know how she does all of the things she does but she does it with style! she is such a great example to me, i could not ask for a better mother.


love & kisses!
