i want chocolate

i get random, very strong urges for chocolate and am known to give in promptly by driving to the grocery store to get whatever i deem necessary.

i've been doing well at disciplining myself but not gonna lie, i miss giving in.

too bad these cravings interfere with weight ;(

1 a.m. update: i guess writing my feelings about chocolate helped. i didn't go to the store! i just had a cup of hot chocolate.

That veil is just superb.

Why do we need so much sleep?
I don't feel at all prepared for a test and yet my body tells me it's too tired. 
What a mystery.

like yeah, i've told you a gazillion times.
but when studying interferes with sleep, cooking, and fun it's like totally a hassle.

the cling crew

my mom found love and sealed the deal last summer. as a result, i acquired brothers! 5 of them, to be exact. it really is fun having brothers. i've never had them until now, being the oldest of 3 girls.
couldn't have asked for a better Christmas.

i could have been graduated already if it weren't for this damn business minor!
oh well, such is life this semester. accounting, finance and math. all repeats cuz i didn't put my heart into them the first time around. let's face it they don't have much heart. hahaha
