I saw this for the first time this weekend. Goofy MJ: did you hear that? I finally saw it: it was brilliant.
My little musical-loving soul is very happy. It is indeed brilliant. I always thought it would be fun to play Lina LaMont in a production of this. “I am a shining star in the Hollywood firmament!”
Dearest Blog,
I sincerely apologize for my lack of posts. You are a creative outlet that I have recently neglected because of my work schedule and my How I Met Your Mother marathons and my fatigue and my insecurities. These things should not be excuses.
I must confess to you, Blog, that I am feeling like a college freshman all over again. The what do you want to be when you grow up question still lingers in my mind daily. I no longer feel that teaching is the correct path for me….what does that leave me with? I have been wracking my brains out trying to figure out how my skills could be used for a fulfilling and enjoyable career. You know I don’t really care about being a millionaire, but I would like something slightly more supportive than my retail salary.
I thought about working for a non-profit organization, and I am still weighing my options on that one. However, the most recent dream I have seriously started to consider is starting my own wedding planner business. This may sound somewhat silly and insurmountable to you, Blog, but I have three older sisters and a mother with varied interests and skills. I have always dreamed of combining all those skills together as a family to create something beautiful. Together we have successfully helped put together three weddings (my sisters’ weddings of course).
I must say I LOVE weddings, and my friends’ weddings have only enhanced my wedding planning dream. I am very much a romantic. My family has the talents of organization, planning, cake decorating, photography, compiling music playlists, crafts (in general), and the list goes on.
I must admit, Blog, that I haven’t been this excited about something in a REALLY long time. I don’t even know if I can do this, but I feel like life is about trying new things. Please support me, Blog. In return, I will try to do better with sharing the ups and downs of this recent endeavor.
With hope,
Miriam
Here are just a few more pictures… These are more recent. Lest the internet think we are still freshmen in college. (We are not).
We may be older now… but we will always be goofy:
Always.
SO TRUE!
For those of you who may not know, today is a very special day. It’s Goofy MJ’s birthday!
Goofy MJ was my roommate and very dear friend during college. There is not a whole lot that happened during college that she was not a part of. Would you like to see some highlights?There were fall leaves…
I have a post planned for today (because it is a special day), but my dear husband takes his wireless keyboard with him to class, therefore I cannot access his computer with all my pictures from college. So that post will come later this evening, I promise. Until then, here’s sneak peek at what it will most likely entail…
Tune in tonight to see the real thing…
I LOVE IT ALL! Thanks, Kt.

I know it’s been too long since I’ve posted anything, but I thought I would start out my new year of posts with a video that never fails to make me smile!

I adore Florence + The Machine. There is something very exquisite and ethereal about all their music!
