no other word but lovely



so maybe 
this video only
half-appears 
on my blog,
but that doesn't 
change the fact that
it's my favorite tune
for the time being.

[s]no[w] thank-you.


the snow is beautiful
but it's cramping my style.
it needs to give
fall its chance to shine
for just a few more weeks.
that way i can continue
to crunch the leaves
when i walk on campus.
it doesn't work so well
when they're
wet & soggy.

oh diet coke, you sure are the love of my life.

i have never been
too keen
on rating things
on a scale of 1-10.
that is why i now
rate things
on a scale of
one to diet coke.
it just makes more sense.
i love my diet coke.

sorry school i forgot about you.


   plain and simple,
it was the 
best weekend
in a long, long time.
the hours in the sun,
and at the mall,
and playing tennis,
and laughing so hard,
and eating too much,
and sleeping in
were just what i needed.
needless to say,
arizona has my heart.

always a fun event.

make me realize
how much fun
delta gamma
adds to my life.

time to fail

sometimes,
my heart skips a beat
when i realize 
i am almost done with school,
yet i have no idea
(no idea)
what i am going to do next.
i think,
why can't it be like when i was little?
if i wanted to take ballet, i would.
if i wanted to play soccer, i would.
if i wanted to be a singer, i would.
and although i failed terribly
at all of these things,
it didn't matter one bit
because i was not afraid of failure.
not only was i not afraid of it,
failure didn't phase me
i had absolutely nothing to lose.
i simply brushed it off
and found a new endeavor.
---
so now i ask,
why should it be any different now?
maybe grad school is no ballet recital,
and losing a job would be a bit harder
than losing a soccer game,
but if i hadn't failed at those little things as a child,
i never would have discovered what i love.
so there i have it,
i am no longer afraid to fail.
and that little realization
makes the future
a lot less scary,
and a lot more exciting.
