The Votes Are In!

Hey guys,

How are you? :) So, some people actually voted on my polls! I'm so happy about that! Gnarly; so you guys like the compooter? Me too. I am on it a lot. Also, the truth is better. Hands down. I'm adding two new features; one box will be of a picture I love, and then a musical artist or album that I want you to know about. I'm excited about this! I've been waiting to do something new and here it is. I hope you like it as much as I do. This week has been a quiet one for me. I finally saw The Runaways! It was okay; I wouldn't watch it again but I had been waiting sooo long to watch it. Rock & Roll! At it's finest. ;) I've been walking for a week and two days and I feel better than before. I haven't noticed any change physically, but that is coming. I know it's not far behind. That's all for now! S'laters!

♥,
Rachel

PS: I need to make a new vlog. Check out our older vlogs! HERE!!

Saturday Is Like A Nap Day!

Hello people and new people! ♥

I feel tons better, and thank you for leaving comments on my second to last post. It made me feel happy. :) Plus, it was just great to see! I think I'm going to post some more polls and see what you guys think. Please please please vote! If you read this is in a reader, please go to my actual blog and vote it up!! That is what rad people do who like to see results. :D Let's see, I have been busy as usual with school and work and I'm excited because I have one semester left until I transfer. I can't believe it's been two years already. I'll have my Associates. Yes!! I'm leaving finally, and I'm not looking back. I'm quitting my job and ev'rthang. Mom thought I was keeping. No ma'am! Saturday and it DOES feel like I should be asleep right now. I watched I Can Do Bad All By Myself with my sister. It was good! It's a movie by Tyler Perry that came out last year. This guy was in it:

Not too bad! What movies are you looking forward to? Usually, I don't really pay attention, I just like movies but I definitely want to see Scott Pilgrim, Despicable Me, Picture of Dorian Gray, and Tangled. Excited to do that! I probably will be seeing Despicable Me tonight just because. What movies are you ready to watch this summer?

bye!

Breathe...In & Out

Hello.

I can't. Do this.
It was Sunday and I had church, tonight I went to my friend's house to watch a movie. The Edukators; good film. It totally deserves the ratings and hype it gets. So does Inception. Before the movie, my friend was like...the guy I like was actually interested in her. I knew it, but in my brain a flower starting losing petals. And wilting. It was a weird feeling. I don't love this man, I just like him. Enough like to imagine us being together, holding hands. Things like that. God help me, I tried. Besides me being shy around him I texted, I invited. It wasn't enough. It's never enough. For me, it always happens like this. I will like a guy and he will like my friend. I felt really bad and bummed out last week towards the middle. I was wondering why. My heart knew what my brain didn't pick up. They are in a losing race. I will realize everything in the morning. My friends did not want to tell me or at least did not know how to break the news. And here I sit at this computer blogging out words to say when I can't even describe how I feel right now. I left, and I couldn't even go 55. I was so...jumbled. I know for sure, that this was the sign I wanted so much from God. The sign that means to keep going and move on with my life. There is slim pickings in this town. I'm through & done with dating; it only ends in disappointment for me. My friend, Chad from Georgia suggested I move there. He can always make me laugh. I need to be here. At least in Texas getting the rest of my education. I don't want to be lonely for much longer, though. The sadness is deafening sometimes.

PS: I won't give up. Not now. Not ever.

Shallow, so shallow.


Bugs crawling,
I felt for sure you would hold steadfast.
This cold, cold Earth holds no memories.
A worm, a maggot, a beetle. None can match your shyness.
I feel myself becoming one of the lowly.
My hands are trembling like my heart when I'm around you.
I can not die, it is not my time to become one with Her.
Why can't I open my mouth? I have the urge, but no tenacity.
That is my demise.
Dirty hands bury me in dirt until I become what crawls in my head. The soil forgives easily and offers second chances.
I've lost you.
To the earth, to the stars...
to everything.

Busy vs. Busier

Ah.

I haven't been updating. I will, I promise.





PS: I'm sorry about the Formspring mess. That was a bad idea for both sides.

Fall Sweetly, Hang Heavy; You Suddenly Complete Me.


C: Bonjour, friends!


So, I counted all the votes on what I should add to my blog, and music won! Of course! So, I'll be making some changes. I'm excited because we're moving! West Columbia; so pumped because I'll be closer to my friends and everyone else. Angleton is far away from everything, but is 15 minutes away from Lake Jackson where the mall, ect resides. So, there's a lot of pros and cons, but I'm excited to live in a better environment! In general! Our neighborhood is the worst. Mm, mm. Ahum, school and work. Everyday. :P Yuck! Right? I feel bad because I haven't been sewing or crocheting all that much. I just don't have time to sit and do that right now, and now that we're moving I have to start taking down stuff and boxing it up. You know? So...it makes me sad because I love it but.....I'll get over it! Making a package for my private swap with Jess from Brazil! Top notch! :D I can't wait to see what she is sending me. She is a pretty cool chick. I have this book waiting on me to read:

I saw it on someone's tumblr and it looks good. It's about the struggles of a WW2 veteran and how he immerses himself into society and culture once more. I'm positive that I'll like it. Any internal conflicts or society based books, I'm all over it. Fiction, that is. Oh man. White Oldeander by Janet Fitch. I read a fourth of that book. Not worth it. If it was a novel I have to read in class, I'd do it, but since it's on my own time. No thanks. It's about this lady and her daughter. The woman is a poet, but she works as a columnist at a newspaper. Her kid is 13 and looks up to her mom, she thinks she is the greatest. In reality, her mom neglects her basically and is a feminist. So the mom meets a guy who treats her so good and she falls in love even though she taugh her daughter to hate men. The guy end up leaving her for another woman and she just goes insane and murders him. Literally. The girl goes to a foster home of Starr a born again prostitute her daughter and two sons. Then she gets kicked out for sleeping with Starr's boyfriend, and she is bounced from home to home. Each one having a different story. I wasn't liking her frame of thought, and how careless she was towards the world. =/ I sat it down, but whatever. Looking forward to The Outcast! Bring it! byee!
♥,
Rachel!

Ugh!


I want the broken heart shirt. Curse you Tegan & Sara for touring Europe!

Like A Hearse, I'm Waiting On That Special Someone. ♥



[shh.]





Hey guys,

For the past weeks, I haven't been doing much of anything. One thing is that I've been hanging out with that beauty. :) I missed & skipped Biology today because I didn't wake up. My alarm was never set, but I promise you I switched the alarm to on. One of my neighbor's dogs hung himself. The owner came outside, looked at it and went back inside. My mom whispers to us that they buried it where the house was and put a new dog there. Today she thought differently; it was buried somewhere else. That would be horrible to die where you lived. If humans were like that, nothing would smell good. The flowers would smell like death...bah. I feel really thoughtful. I'm sorry I haven't been blogging a lot. I just keep forgetting and the days go by so fast. Today at work, everyone slowly just left before 5. It was stupid. At 4:55, my boss waved at me signaling she was leaving and I had to go too. We were the only ones left. =/ I hung out with friends and special friends last night. I had a good time. I felt anxious and quiet annd I was laughing uncontrollably because of the thought of a special friend, but we'll see what happens. It was still fun to see him. I want to know more. I saw that someone voted! Thank you, friend! ♥ Yep, I just gave you a shout-out. I have school in 6 hours...but it's ok. I think I will sleep when I get home after. That sounds good. Really good. I was lurking tumblr's and they have such pretty pictures. They are pleasing to the eyes and senses. It's weird, but sometimes when I see a picture I can imagine the atmosphere and how it felt to snap that. Pretty. Prettyness. What are your favorite things to wear? Here are mine:

Mittens!


Skirts that are pretty!


headbands! Don't judge me! I hate Gossipgirl!



This looks creepy, but I love Japanese lolita. Why? It's so dang cute.


Cocktail hats. :)


Scarves. ♥


Dude. Bracelets. I love them, and I can't get enough!


fishnets, I have them and love them.


Just a couple things off the top of my head. I have been listening to A Fine Frenzy's "One Cell In The Sea" [Featuring a sweet, sweet elf.] through the blogging process.

♥♥,
Rachel!

So, A Priest, Rabbi, and Supermodel Walk Into A Bar...

So many blogs, so little time.



Work blog/grog blog. 3 hours of sleep. 2 1/2 if you don't count drifting into it. So, I've been lurking on blogs the past 4 days and I must say I am intimidated! Besides my title, my little niche pales in comparison! You guys are really working hard out there! Very creative and weird. :) I know I'm late but you know what type of pictures I like to see? These:



Not exactly the subject, but the way the picture was taken and edited. Very dream-like and cute. Lookville...geez. Haha, it has made me more into seeing people's stories, their outlooks on life and how each day comes. It's fascinating. Anyways, so school is going really well, and my teacher is very wise. I can see her being a spitfire when she was young! She has a lot to say. One exception is, on the first day, she told us when she worked in a real lab, she tasted different types of urine. This would be a dealbreaker, but she was so blase about it that we just looked on with shock. GROSS!! Urine!?!! Really? I was surprised, to say the least. I've also been having some weird dreams this past week. I might start a dream log on here or at least write it down in detail so I won't forget. I have a horrible short-term memory. I'm sure it's because I don't exercise it enough, but I can't remember a lot of events in a short time period like a month or so. We will see. I still want to do a music section and write about things I like in music. Maybe a fashion do & don't section? What do you think?? I'll set up a poll on what my next addition will be. I just want to thank all the people who commented on my last entry; you're so sweet! Seriously the nicest people...I love you guys. ♥ Please DO NOT FORGET to vote on what my new addition should be!! I want your opinion!

♥,
Rachel
