New year, new posts

Wow I am such a slacker! The end of 2011 turned out to be a little turbulent. Nothing much to report so I was over playing on pinterest and tumblr. Inspiration pictures, quotes and videos go a long way :) Things right now are a little crazy but going good. 2012 is going to be fun, right? 


Here's some NYE highlights, because it's always my favorite and this year I had a really amazing night. I went to see Henry Clay People with my cousins and although I'd never listened to them it turned out to be SO GREAT! They played a set and towards midnight, they started playing a bunch of covers of everyones favorite songs like Don't Stop Believin' and When Doves Cry. Eventually they ended up pulling people onstage and all my friends and I were up there, singing and dancing. Perfect tone to start the year on and def a night to remember :) I love having a great show to go to on a holiday, no pressure, no fuss and makes it so much more special.

cheers to new years! :)

Celebrate

via kissing

First I was going to do a video montage of the year but I couldn't stand looking thru the pictures. Then I was going to write a long winded reflection but fuck all that noise. 

Enjoy tonight, be smart, be safe, have fun and kiss a stranger or the one you love. Don't take it too serious, a new year is a new start, a clean state. It's New Years yes, but it's just another night. So, celebrate and enjoy the ones you love. I'm going out with my girlfriends to our favorite bar (that is charging no cover!) so it's going to be fun, cheap and ordinary. I am a happy gal. Coming a long way from where I was 365 days ago. Happy to be here.

xoxoxo
