observing.

I've noticed that lately I've been paying an extra lot of attention to people. I find myself just staring, and observing. Then when they're out of sight, I sit there and think about the differences between those people and myself. The way they talk to other people, the way they seem to have it figured out - or not figured out - and I think about the things that might be going on in their lives. I start to realize that each of these different people are probably going through different things in their lives, good and bad. They've got their own life. It's just weird to me to think that if I switched places with a random person in this world, everything would be completely different. Then I start to think.. what if somebody else, at this exact moment, somewhere in the world, is thinking the exact same thing I am right now? They could very well be typing in their blog about it as well. That would be proof that there's also people out there who are a lot like me. Maybe there's some chick who thinks exactly like I do. Or some boy. But isn't that impossible? Sometimes I think I should switch my major and go into psychology, or something that has to do with people. Hmm.. this is a weird post.

the buried life :)

letter to the world.

dear world,
you are such a strange world. i have a love/hate relationship with you. i'm thankful for the wonderful neighborhood i grew up in, and the schools i went to, because that's how i was blessed with my best friends. i'm thankful for your different seasons in utah. and for all the beautiful countries that i want to visit someday. world, please stop judging people for their differences. not everyone is perfect, not everyone believes the same thing, but we're all human. or animal. and we all have good spirits deep down. please give everyone a chance. i'm disappointed in you sometimes, world, because of how people and animals get treated. let's be fair. but i know you have good intentions. sometimes we just seem to forget to think for ourselves, instead of listening to what everyone else has to say. all in all, i really do love you though, mr. world. let's make this a happy world.
love,
adri

i wish i had a pensieve.

then i could put all of my happiest memories in there, and remember them forever.

life's checklist.

• embrace change.
• take the journey back to yourself.
• love with abandon.
• speak of your gratitude.
• wear yellow shoes.
• unleash your creative spirit.
• dance in the moonlight.
• be positive.
• believe in healing.
• share your inner light.
• surprise yourself and do the thing you didn't think you could do.
• live as if you've only been given one chance.

lazy days.

this was my day today. (minus a few lines haha)

and the decorating has begun..

i brought some halloween decorations to our apartment, and now it looks halloween-ish. :)

our pumpkin lights in the kitchen. front window, outside. the ghetto mummy. (it's been hung in my house every halloween for the past 10 years) our spooky skull-face-thing. there's a microphone that leads inside, so we can scare people that come to our doorstep :)

step one: build a time machine.

i really think i was meant to live in a different time era.

i was just thinking today, about how much i hate technology. why should we feel down on ourselves if we check our cell phone and don't have any new text messages? or if we get on facebook and don't have any updates?

sometimes, most the time, i think life would be so much better off without fancy things like texting, social networking sites, etc.

because when we check our phones and don't have "that special hello from that special someone" we automatically think they hate us. when really, they might just be busy and not have their phone. and when someone doesn't reply to your message that little part of your brain is overanalyzing everything and making up reasons for why that person doesn't want to talk to you.

i say "boo" to technology. let's go back in time.

leaves, halloween, hoodies.

happy october :)
