Bag of my dreams.

I have in my mind the most perfect bag--one of those things that I'll know it when I see it and I will absolutely have to have it regardless of price. Surprisingly enough I FOUND the bag of my dreams on Blair on a Budget, unfortunately, it's from Primark and only £6, but Primark doesn't have online shopping. Which means I either have to pine away forever for this gorgeous creature or maybe one of my England friends will actually be kind enough to hear my pleas about how much I need this bag.

Behold my dream bag:

I totally snagged this picture from Blair on a Budget. Hope she doesn't mind because honestly, I don't know where else to find pictures of it.

This bag seriously makes me giddy.

lies and truths and hopes

Sometimes, I am very good at lying to myself. And by sometimes, I mean nearly all the time.

My future is a bit blurry right now because my intended plans fell through and this past week I've been sabotaging myself and I've been reckless and careless and focusing all my energy on the wrong things. I think sometimes, recognizing that is the first step.

I took today off because I needed to regroup and start to feel like a real person again.

I just wrote on my bathroom mirror this:

"Hey unicorn princess! DON'T PANIC!!! Everything will be okay. SMILE!"

And then I drew a bunch of hearts all around it.

I think it's time for ME. I need to focus on myself and really loving myself instead of just having a crush on the person I pretend to be.

I need to make a to-do list and start getting things done. Sometimes, I wish I could have someone hold my hand and tell me everything is going to be okay and also kick me in the ass when I'm in one of these moods. I know I need to be that person though.

Tomorrow morning I am going to get up earlier than I need to and I'm going to be grateful to be alive and I'm going to wear something that makes me happy and I'm going to get things done!

It's Spring!

Hello! It's Spring, time for daffodils and popsicles and flip flops.

I've never used Polyvore before, but Gala Darling had a fun contest in cahoots with ModCloth, so I couldn't resist making a set! Here's mine, I love the dress!

Hey! It's MONDAY! Wear a push-up bra and your best smile today!

Set the tone for the week--it's going to be fantastic!

It's cheesy but rainy days and Mondays do get me down, so I want to learn to reverse that!

Hey you guys! It's SUNDAY! Go get some cheesecake and listen to your favorite album.

Right now I'm listening to Oasis's (What's the Story) Morning Glory and I have to go to the store later today to get a prescription filled and I am totally buying some cheesecake!

It's Valentine's Day--be your own Valentine.

mantra

Prepare to be starstruck by yourself. You are amazing and beautiful. Love yourself.

how'd you do and shake hands

Once, I remember a professor mentioned some sort of economist who said the economy rose and fell along with skirt hemlines. I don't know if it's true or not, but the idea of the words 'skirt economy' have stuck with me. I don't really wear skirts--I think I own one--but this blog isn't about skirts and it certainly isn't about economy. I want this to be about coincidences and love and beauty and finding myself.

Right now it's February 2010 and I'm finally graduating college in May and I want to got to graduate school and get a degree in Library Science. WANT, being the operative word. I've thusfar applied to only one uni and until I find out I haven't gotten in, I'm not planning on actively applying anywhere else. I'm not pinning my dreams on one place, except I am. I will devise a plan B when the need arises.

I'm not sure what to do with myself or my life. Gala Darling has started a month of Radical Self Love and I've decided it's time I learn to love myself, so really this is why I created this blog. I want an outlet. I have a gazillion livejournals and blogs and paper journals, but maybe this time, this one will stick.

Hello, my name is Sarah. How'd you do? I'm looking forward to getting to know you, but I think I'm most excited about getting to know myself.

Best love.
