mood: sigh...
music: ashlee simpson - pieces of me

the day:
farmer's market avec d.gut, dre, liz (the best new neighbor ever!), barb, todd, hillary, andrew, and umang
abercrombie & fitch (i know...) w/ dre and liz to see kellen
wheatfield's delicious yum yums w/ dre and liz
power shopping spree @ westroad's w/ dre and her madre
umang's for a power nap and shenanigans (nathan looked pretty good in those heels!)
mmmm...downtime and ice cream...
long talk w/ nathan
sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep! (still to come)

craziness like whoa. what else can i say at this point? i feel like i've just been thrown inside a tornado. i can't even describe how much my world has changed in the last 10 days. my life today hardly resembles the one that i knew beforehand. i couldn't be more confused. i couldn't be more amazed. and i'm pretty sure i couldn't be happier. things are spinning in an insanely wonderful direction. there's no happier ending (beginning?!) to be had. no better plot twist.

so to recap: NOT going (or wanting to go) to chicago for another week (i know it's amazing), new set of bff's, peace w/ the old bff's (hope makyle didn't read that one), new set of life goals, finding myself on the other side of "the backstab?!", not being able to stop smiling...
didn't expect that i would bond w/ umang, d.gut, tylena, and courtney (build it, put your hands on my hips, say it in english, what's wrong w/ your neck?, take off your clothes, what are you doing? get on the bus...!).
didn't expect andrea and i would become such great amigas that i would actually call her andrea instead of dre.
didn't expect to have such an instantaneous and perfect connection with nathan.
didn't expect to find such a fabulous life coach in the kk.
didn't expect to find such an intensely beautiful friendship in david. (and that's ALL i'll say about that...)

how swiflty and wonderfully life can change when you've no expectations.

perhaps i can finally comprehend the delicate and intricate exquisiteness in letting go














how lovely...
