Ambition: to be a hippie! To wear aviators every day, and tie dye, and live out of a volkswagon microbus. To quit my office job and take millions of pictures and be free.
Bad Habit: swearing. Being vain. Sometimes I can have a really bad temper. Running only when I'm angry. Not staying in touch with people I love nearly enough. Talking to God only when I want something.
City: Edinburgh, Scotland. It’s the only city I’ve ever lived in, and within a month it felt like home. I miss it every day. Venice was incredible too, but I wouldn’t want to live there.
 |
| My beautiful, beautiful city. Can your heart belong to a city? Mine belongs here. |
Drink: Green tea. Scottish breakfast blend tea. Any kind of tea. I could live off of tea.
Education: working on it. Next spring I’ll have a bachelor’s in international relations, with a double minor in politics and environmental studies. No, I do not have a life plan.
Food: everything. No, seriously. Except for brussel sprouts.
Guilty Pleasures: Jesse McCartney. Pride & Prejudice. Dancing in my underwear.
Hometown: Birdsboro, Pennsylvania. Except not, because I sort of live in the middle of nowehere between three different towns.
Ice Cream: Mint chocolate chip. Moosetracks. Bing Cherry. It’s so hard to decide.
Jonesing for: Some time away. My semester abroad spoiled me: I am resultantly obsessed with travelling and chaffing at being stuck in southeastern Pennsylvania (at least for now).
Kryptonite: Boys with guitars, or holding babies. Boys with beautiful eyes. Boys in general. Cute and wildly unpractical shoes. Bathing suits and chocolate anything.
 |
| Example of wildly impractical shoes. I'm still waiting for a reason to wear them back home. |
Look-a-like: I was told last week that I look like Anne Hathaway. Ridiculous.
Movie: She’s The Man. Last year I watched it once a day for about a week straight. My roommate knew exactly what I was doing when I would bust up laughing for no obvious reason. Despite this, she loves me and does not judge me for it.
Nickname: Rabbit, Eeemahlee (from my roommate), Mrs. Boo (from my papa), Sugar Eyes (from my friend in high school), Jellybean (from a friend).
Obsession: Channing Tatum. My Nikon. Being in love. Being 21. Tennyson's poetry. Punctuation.
Perfume: Daisy by Marc Jacobs.
Quirk: My nostrils flare when I lie. It’s a dead giveaway, once people realize it.
Regret: Not giving everything I have to everything I do. Not knowing the difference between giving up and letting go. Waiting so long to love myself.
Starbucks: Coconut Frappuccino. So. Much. Energy.
Thrift Find of the Year: My beautiful soft brown leather knee high Clark boots that I found in Edinburgh for 10 quid. Even when I have children, I cannot imagine loving them more than I love those boots.
University: Ursinus College, class of 2012! University of Edinburgh (1 semester).
Vacation: Spring Holiday in Italy last semester, resulting in the worst sunburn of my life. That, or the week I spent in OCMD and Assateague Island with some of my closest friends.
Wine: I’ve never had it.
X: ... Well, this is a useless letter. Um, exasperating? Boys. Boys are exasperating.
Years: 21. It seems like so many and so few, all at the same time, and it’s the happiest age I’ve been yet. I would love to be 21-feeling forever.
Zen: the ocean on a quiet night. Not the boardwalk, just the waves going on forever and ever. So many stars that feel so infinite, and I feel so small.
see, how fun was that? Happy Thursday, lovebugs!
