Two Loves Come to an End

I'm being slightly melodramatic in my title. That's what girls do best :)

The two loves I am talking about?

1. The Chronicles of Narnia. I finished the seventh and final book last night, and although they are meant for children, they are fantastic for adults as well. Probably because the books remind you to think like children--without doubts, without worry, but just with a full interest in experiencing and living life. Now that's beautiful.

My favorites out of the series were The Magician's Nephew (the first one), Prince Caspian (my very favorite), The Dawn Treader (about life on the sea!) and the Last Battle (the last one). And of course, I like them because there is a spiritual gem shining in each book, which is inspiring.

2. Project Runway. It's just the season finale, not the series...but Project Runway is going to move to Lifetime (and be set in L.A. instead of New York), which makes me wonder, will it be diferent? Because it is perfect the way it is RIGHT NOW.

Anyway, Leanne won last night (I thought she would!) and her collection was simply smashing. I want one of those skirts!!!

So now what to do? Two of my loves that took up some time are gone. Well, one, take up a new book (duh) and two, keep my resolution to spend less time with glowing screens, a.k.a. watch less T.V.!

Well,

Looks like the insurance thing turned out to be what I thought: something I DO NOT want to do! It was based on commissions and sales and all of that.

I don't know, I just want a job that I can be half-interested in, at least. Something that helps other people in some way. I don't want a job to be ALL about the cash flow. Yeah, I've established that I'm a gangsta, true. But I'm a thug of the heart.

Does that make sense? haha. I want a job that has some type of value in the world. Yeah, I wanna get paid, but I don't want to prostitute my mind, body and soul out for money. The mind and soul were made to be challenged in this life, not just become robotic all in attempt to have a bigger house or flashier car.

I'm getting huffy, so I digress...

to a topic about fashion! Project Runway to be exact (you don't have to read Frankie). LOOK AT THIS AMAZING DRESS. I wannnnnnnt it! (after I just talked about not loving material things, right?) But it's so beautiful!

I kind of overlooked Leanne in the beginning of the competition, but now I'm rooting for her. She creates beautiful garments that I can't help but admire! Plus, how can you not love that classic 30s glamour look?

Anyway, hope you all had a fine day today! With each day I grow wiser, stronger and more determined. Here's to all living the best life we can!

My Favorite Project

Weirdly enough, I've never written about Project Runway on my blog before, but I have been a huge fan since the beginning.

I'm not one to follow too much T.V.; if I'm bored enough and something is on, I may watch it. However, Project Runway is one show I watch religiously.

I don't know what it is! I'm just fascinated by how each designer puts together their garment in the short alloted time. I love the intense background music. Heidi is sassy. Tim is even sassier. It's just magic. This may be my favorite show ever.

And this season, there are quite a few talented designers (where as last season, Christian was the only "fierce" designer). So that makes things even more exciting for me.

Alright, alright. I'll stop with all the praising. It's just that Project Runway gives me a little glimmer of hope that T.V. can be decent. Cause there's A LOT of crap on television right now. Including the news, which I won't get into...cause that's a whole other post.

Oh, the things I think when I am sick.

I'm sick. Stilllllllllllllllllll.

I was getting better, then my roomates just had to get sick. And now, I am sick again. Funny how that works.

I told Michael (at work) about this and he joked, "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh...how'd you get sick???"

I said, "I wish I could tell you I made out with a hot guy, but actually my roomates--wait. I'll just stick to the hot guy story. I like that one better."

Michael smiled and responded,"Yeah, I would stick with that too (laughter)."

Alas, there is no hot guy. And I haven't kissed someone in....oh....a LONG LONG time. Like, since April of last year. That's far too long. But then again, only few have had the privelege of kissing me...therefore, it's worth the wait to keep it more of an exclusive club. Or so I tell myself.

One last thing, since Michelle mentioned it on her blog. Do you watch Project Runway? Well I do. And Daniel NEEDS to win. NEEDS to!! If Santino (however you spell that mofo's name) wins, I'll cry, and then slit my throat. Because Daniel is talented and I love every single one of his garments!! He's seriously a natural. I'm leaving Chloe out of this...and she's good, but she doesn't hold a light to the luminous ray that is Daniel.

Alright...I've spoken my peace about Project Runway. I'm good now. Well, except that I am still sick. But whatever, I'll just overdose on some Sudafed and let the medicine take me away. Plus, I love how they are sugarcoated.
