boop-a-doop

Hiyo! :D 
Just stopping in. It's Tuesday. 
I wish it was Wednesday. I like Wednesday. I don't know why. 

It rained and stormed all night last night. It was rather lovely to wake up to several times. for real. :) 

So, yes. I'm going to do a giveaway. NOt sure how or what or when, yet. but I got some stuffs for it. :D lol. I hope you like the stuffs. I do. :D I like some of it so much I had to get me the same thing. yep. it's that cool. 

Here's some random pictures off my phone so the quality is horrible, but oh well. 

Le Me! :)

my beautiful skullcandy headphones


that moment when you're snapchatting your friends and a wild brother appears. O.o
Anyhow. That's about it, I think....
OH WAIT!!! NO!

Circles

You know what always messes things up? 
When we do things on our own. 

Yeah. that's right. 
You know when you try to do the right thing all the time but you're trying in your own strength instead of the Lord's and it turns out you can't because you're not nearly strong enough? 
This happens to me regularly. 

I'm like "Okay, Lord. I see what I'm doing wrong and what I need to change." and I change it. But I change it by myself. and that *never* lasts long. 
I get so tired and so worn out and so frustrated and I'm like "God, why is this so hard!?" 

and do you know what he always, ALWAYS says? 

"Love, just ask me to help. I can give you the grace you need. I can help you."

No matter HOW many times I mess up (and lemme tell you it's constantly.) That's always what he says!! Even if it's for the same stupid mistake. It blows my mind that He's willing to forgive me in the first place, but then the fact that he's so loving and so kind as to pour out His grace to help me do the right thing is so much that I can't even fathom His love for me.

wow.
You know, our God is TRULY an awesome God. It blows my mind how gentle and amazing and lovely He is.
*sigh*
I love you, Lord.



{P.S. I did not plan to write this post. O.o I was feeling more than horribly depressed sitting here trying to work and had SO much on my mind and I kinda figured I'd come write out a depressing post and never post it. Then this song came on my Spotify shuffle....And as I started writing God overwhelmed me with how great He is. How wonderful He is and how I just have to ask for His peace. I've really got my doubts about posting this.... I don't know why. I guess I just never publish the posts where I write out what's on my heart. Maybe I'm insecure? Anyways. I've decided I would. So here you have it. A few of my Late-night-would-rather-be-doing-anything-besides-work thoughts. I hope it's been a blessing to you in some way.}

{P.P.S. If there are weird clear little boxes under my posts, I have no clue what they are or what they're doing there and I apologize and I apparently can't make them go away. lol. :P}

pointless post!

Hey! It's wednesday! 
I like Wednesday. 
I don't know why.... I just do. 



Can you believe it's OCTOBER!? 
*spasms*
The craziest of soup. 
Like The Chronicles of Narnia:The Silver Chair movie I see they're making??
WHAT! 

 Did I tell you why I decided to keep my blog? 
Because I love it. 
But I've resolved not to "try" with this blog. 
"I DO WHAT I WANT, THOR!!" 
:) I used to want to be like the other bloggers I admire so much who always have the prettiest pictures, and the most meaningful, deep posts, or something creative going on, or something...that're just beautiful, you know?
I'm not that kind of blogger, though. lol. So if that's what you like you'll hate my blog. 
I'm random and weird and uncreative and crazy and that's how I'mma blog since it's what I do best. ^_^ 
Oh, you guys!! It's National Pointless Post day! Yeah. Noni (On A String. Best blog ever in case you haven't checked it out.) just said so. So there. Go see her pointless post. It's better than mine.
post a pointless post. 
do it.

Saturday

via Instagram (Music_Nerd_95)
So far it's a beautiful Saturday, dears. Coffee, oversized hoodies, music, and lovely bloggies. 
I'm in love with right now. ^_^ 

I was gonna go to the mall today with Jonni and my sis-in-law, Toni, but that didn't work out...
That's okay. :) I'm loving being home right now. Plus, I don't think I could do the mall today anyways...my hip randomly went out yesterday afternoon and hurts like heck. :P 



Anyways, I'm almost to 200 posts!! I kinda wanna do something special...
Any ideas?
I think a giveaway is in order...

I love it when the sunlight fades in and out from behind enormous, delicious looking clouds...

Anyhow. Weird little post here, yeah. I gotta get started on work. 


Happy Weekend, lovelies! 
<3 <3

Oh, Hello!

Hiya! So... yeah. I guess I don't wanna stop blogging. lol. I have a lot to catch up on, and I'm going to be slow starting back up, but I think I'd rather get back to it than just going away entirely. Plus, I miss Treskie, Soph, Jack, and Lacey. 
^_^ 

Here's my first post as of coming back. :) 
Shall we catch up a little? 

Currently: 
Obsessed with - The Imagine Dragons song at the end of this post.
                - Hamburgers
                    -Danisnotonfire



Excited for - New baby nephew and nephew or niece on the way.
             - Being back to taking private violin lessons again
                                              - Autumn! Sweaters, Salted Caramel Mochas, boots, leggings, scarves, and coats. <3 *yes*
                                             - Thor 2, Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Doctor Who 50th anniversary special.



New with me - Having my license and driving myself everywhere.
                                             - Not currently having a crush... Yep. That's new for me. It's rather bizarre and strange feeling. O.o  :)
                                                - Thinking about college. Yeah. :P Blech. Don't want to go at all, but I'm dying to be in an orchestra again and college seems tobe the only way to do that. Plus, it can't be that bad, right? *unsure smile*

*BECAUSE IT'S TOM*
~~~~
So yeh. Some lifey-ish stuff there. How are you all?? Gosh I've missed you. :) 
Excited to be back! 



Loooooooove you!

One for the Whovians!

Yep. Just because I freaking love Doctor Who. 
And I have Doctor Who stuff to show off. 
^_^

Please excuse the cheesy awful selfie in the messy room. I took it in a hurry the other day and was too lazy to get a decent one. ;) :D



My newest piece of Doctor Who fandom!! Bought it at Hot Topic last weekend!! *eek*! SO proud of it. yes. 

 
Here is the fingernail polish job I did this morning!! I'm obsessed with anything British and my friend found a great tutorial on how to do these fingernails and I *had* to try it. :D Whatcha think? And, of course, how else to model these fingernails than with a Sonic Screwdriver and amazing DW t-shirt?? :) 

how I feel every time I use my srewdriver. ;)

Let's all just take a while to recollect ourselves after seeing that hair.............


....


.........


okay.


Ten is still wearing Nine's coat. ^_^


You read it in his voice, didn't you. ;) 

Annnnnd one for the Eleve people. lol. Sorry. As you can tell I'm slightly partial to Ten.... <3 
I do love this moment between Eleven and River. :D So cute and so true to themselves. 
<3 <3 ^_^ <3 <3 


Yes. There was some random Doctor Who spamming. 
You're welcome. 
I haven't gone and spammed Doctor Who in way too long. 
:D 

Have a fabulous week!!

{xx}

P.S. Thanks for all your dolly comments in the last post. ^_^ I haven't decided yet if I'll stay or no... It's all undecided right now. :) 

P.P.S. This: 



Also, his cover of Adele's "Turning Tables" with "Someone Like You" is one of my favorites. :)
