Places

Today, my head is in the clouds (and I have so much school work to do)... and I'm dreaming of being so many other places (other than here, studying, that is)!

1. Greece

Because, well, who doesn't?

2. Cambridge, UK

Yes, because I'm an English major.  Because I wish I were part of the Inklings Society. Because C.S. Lewis loved it here. And because I want to visit the Library!!

Plus, it is beautiful.

3. Mexico City

I've been here so may times.  It's my favorite place in the world.  And I don't even love big cities.  I don't know, maybe it's nostalgia.  I just love love love it here.

4. Star's Hollow

You get a million points if you know where this is from.

And yes, I want to be here, in this world, switching quips with these girls.

5. Switzerland

In middle school, I read Bloomability, and have wanted to go ever since.

Where are you dreaming of being today?

The Itch

Sometimes, I get the itch to do something wild.  Well, out of the ordinary.  My "wild" would be not going to school and following a schedule.  Today I have the itch to:

1.  Visit the small bookstore down the road!  It's privately owned, and in a tiny, adorable old house, but never open when I'm free (evenings and Sunday afternoons).

2.  Ride a bike in Downtown Charleston.  If you have never been there, you must visit.  It's just gorgeous and charming and I wish I were there today.

3.  Cook a super-gourmet 5-course meal for a bunch of people.

4.  Write something inspiring.  Maybe on a typewriter.

  

Is anyone else obsessed with these?  So vintage and adorable.

5.  Read poetry at a coffee house.  I have always wanted to try this.  Seriously, how cool and chic would that be?!

6. Go for a run.  If you know me, you know that I don't run, but today, I hear the birds chirping, and I think that if I did run, today would be great.

7.  Redecorate my living-room.  I love the way it looks now, but I also love change.  I love shopping at Target and Pier 1 for super cute pillows and frames and throws... If I had money, this would probably really happen today.

Today, I'm in love with this look (don't be fooled, my living room could never look like this):

I won't do any of these things today - I have real life other plans - but wouldn't it be lovely!!??
