As we continue on throughout the month of February and the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday, do you ever really wonder what the word, “love” really means to you? Who do you love? Why do you love them? Do you love anyone at all? Do you love yourself? A good friend of mines asked me to blog about this so I’ve decided to take on her challenge and just talk about love.

What Does Love Mean?

I believe this would be the time to insert a dictionary definition so let’s do that.

Eh, in case you were wondering why I want that lovely work wardrobe. Here’s something from Bloganistas that I wore on my first day of work!

I know I’m late on the “these are my New Year’s resolutions” blog. However, I never consider my goals for any year resolutions. They are just short-term goals I would like to complete in twelve months. Some will be completed a lot earlier than 2011, I hope. I have been extremely pleased with this year so far and it already seems to be a lot better than 2009, bad things included. I hope that everyone can continue to have productive year. I hope you don’t mind if I travel off into discussing my goals for this year. I am positive you have all read many resolutions and goals, so please bare with me!

Celebrate My 20th with a Bang!

This year my birthday is on a Sunday (April 4th! Hello Aries!) and I would like to do a nice weekend getaway, perhaps to Miami. I have traveled on my birthday before, with family, but I’d like to do a weekend with my husband. I won’t be a teen anymore  so I want to say hello to my adulthood in style.

An Amazing Apartment

I have been actively apartment/condo searching for the past year almost. Ideally I would like to stay within the Orlando area. Last year I found a great little place with cheap rent for the amenities it had (granite counter-tops, amazing cabinets, new black appliances, great bathroom, French doors, and more). However, it was out in the middle of nowhere. I didn’t mind and I ideally would have loved to stay there. However, on Saturday, we looked at a great place near all the major highways and only five minutes from Celebration. I had really great feelings about it. It had the same amazing features for the same price. I won’t say too much but I really see myself settled there! Let’s keep our fingers crossed.

I was reading one of my favorite blogs when I saw there was a post about the “Top Ten Things I Learned About Co-Habitation.” Granted, I’ve always lived with others my entire life. However, the past year of living with my husband has taught me quite a lot about living with the young adult male. I’m so glad I found this list. I’ll touch basis on the ones that hit my co-habitation learning experience on the nail. Visit the article for the full list.

1.) The toilet paper usage formula. 1 sixteen pack of toilet paper will last a single person with one bathroom upwards of four months. 1 sixteen pack of toilet paper will last two people, with two bathrooms the blink of an eye. I can not count how many times I’ve had to do the awkward waddle over to the cabinet only to find that we were completely out of toilet paper. This may be the most irritating thing in the universe.

I’m the toilet paper abuser. I was just opening a new roll a few minutes ago. LOL I don’t think he’s quite accustomed to my toilet paper usage.

2) Meal times are weird when one person is indecisive and another one has a mutant ability to exist for days without food (coughtheboyforgetstoeatcough). If we haven’t decided what to have for dinner by six o’clock, it’s a free for all. Hence I’ve had meals made up of noodles and applesauce, cereal and cookies, and an entire jar of pickles.

My husband eats late at night, and eats in strange patterns. I don’t know if all men are like that, but I eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I even have an occasional cookie here and there. It just seems like he never eats? Perhaps, I’m always asleep when he’s eating. We do eat together a lot more since we’ve been married though.

Today, one of my favorite actresses, Brittany Murphy passed away at the age of 32. I really enjoyed most of Brittany’s movies. She was beautiful and talented and her family is in my prayers. In memorial of Brittany’s brilliant film career, I created this small poster quoting one of her lines from Girl, Interrupted. I just thought it’d be appropriate to share it with you.
