Nate, you are my hero.

Mullings

While I continue to mull over whether or not I'm actually moving, there are some things I'd like to share with you.

2. This movie

For those who don't know, this is Holiday Inn, and one of my all time favorite Christmas movies. I'm very excited to watch it in the near Holiday future. Although, I do usually watch it all year long, as it is about ALL holidays. Just focuses mainly on Christmas.

3. This book.

"Late one night 14-year-old Birle, the innkeeper's daughter, dives into the river in rash pursuit of a supposed thief, promptly falls in love with this runaway Lord of the Kingdom and embarks with him on a world-spanning adventure. Birle and her Lord are shipwrecked on a barren coast, rescued by pirates, sold into slavery and, after many other tribulations, narrowly escape and head for home."

Ever since Jeannine read this book to me when I was 7, it has been a favorite. You should all go read it. Right now.

October 16 is a fun. day

Why?

I've seen them before in concert.
They are fabulous.
I think I've even told you to listen to them before.
But, if you weren't listening, here's a video of their glory.

first time

this has been a year of firsts
following will be a list of my firsts:
in November, i died my hair. for the first time.
(yes, i realize that i spelled "dyed" wrong. i'm not changing it)
it was red. my sister did it.
she's amazing. and pretty.
and has a pretty baby.
i went to my first concert. it was fun.
be calm. there's just a few more.
also in November i turned 21 for the first time (although to be perfectly honest,
it is the only time i'll turn 21).
(hopefully).
lastly, i started my first blog.
(well, i started a blog last year, but it was a school assignment,
so that doesn't count)
(ok, so there weren't as many firsts as i thought in my brain, but here is my introduction)
