spring cleaning

today i'm grateful for...
1. coming across this photo of milla jovovich. it really captures my "cleaning" style...which is not cleaning at all, but looking cute!

2. making chocolate covered strawberries. yumm.

3. getting ready to send my sister off to los angeles for the long weekend. I Am So Jealous. You have absolutely no idea. LA is MY thing. But i have come to terms with it. I hope she has fun. ish.


4. english manor houses that were just made for me to lust after. I want one.

Happy April! I haven't posted in awhile because I had a Model United Nations conference all day yesterday and all day Friday.
So these are yesterday's gratitudes.
Yesterday, I was grateful for....


1. this group of people, the MUN team from UHS. We had an awesome delegation, taking home 4 of the 5 top prizes (for English speakers...it was a bilingual conference). Unfortunately, we didn't win best school, BUT WE DESERVED IT.

2. Johnny Rocket's. I know all the words to just about every song they play, because of my fixation with '50s and '60s pop music. The jukeboxes weren't working, which is a travesty. I then proceeded to make some horrendous math errors by telling everyone "I want to be born in 1945 so I can be a teenager in 1950!" I really meant 1935. No one believed me.

3. Business attire. I love love love professional clothing, mostly because it makes me feel more sophisticated and less teenagerish.

4. the wonderful Ms. Canterman. She sang "I Got You Babe" with me at the restaurant, and then answered our questions about her boyfriend, who helped "chaperone" us. Really, the chaperones just tell us what time we have to be somewhere and where that place is.. At least she didn't lose anyone this year!
