Because it seemed easier than 10...

...here is a list of 5 things I am extremely happy about/inspired by/thankful for/loving right now.

One.

My little fall play list that I have been listening to every day. Click on the picture if you would like to download it as well..it comes in handy for cold walks and icy drives. One of the bands, Le Loup, is my current obsession. I bought a t-shirt at their show...that is a big deal for me because I probably had to Coinstar my change to buy it. Okay that's a lie, David bought it for me but I swear I would have gathered change... I really love them. I am new at zip files and such so it may not be in order, but here what it is supposed to sound like:

  • 1. Matt and Kim - Daylight
  • 2. Page France - Here's a Telephone
  • 3. Le Loup - We are Gods! We are Wolves!
  • 4. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - Stay Alive
  • 5. Phoenix - 1901
  • 6. Phantogram - When I'm Small
  • 7. Volcano Choir - Island, IS
  • 8. Sin Fang Bous - Melt Down the Knives
  • 9. The Rosewood Thieves - Double Crossed
  • 10. Port O'Brien - My Will is Good
  • 11. I and Love and You - The Avett Brothers
  • 12. Bowerbirds - Olive Hearts
Two.




Cupcakes. Always. I have maybe 100 pictures of cupcakes I have eaten on my phone. Kind of gross, kind of adorable. My stomach started rejecting baked goods as meals, but then I took some vitamins and now I think we are all good. Protein is for wusses anyway.

Three.

Lace tights...I wear them every day and am in love...it is quite possible that my favorite thing about fall is boots and tights. Sometimes I think I might look like a hooker, most of the time I don't care. Lace tights, you do nothing to keep me warm, but I do love you.

Also, the boots pictured above might be my prized possession... Why? You ask, well because they keep me from wearing Uggs. Although- confession time- I did wear my Uggs to the 3 a.m. showing of New Moon. And yeah, I did wear Pink sweatpants with them... It was the most comfortable movie of my life and I never felt more accepted for bad fashion choices.


Four.

Want. This. Dress. I plan my New Year's outfits like three months in advance. What? I work at Forever 21, it's okay. This is perfect. I will keep dreaming because I make $8.00 an hour at said place of employment.

Five.

And finally, I am very thankful that I got an internship at the Deseret News. I never saw a future as a journalist, but I am working in the Features section starting in January and it's quite a blessing in disguise... I am not sure how long I could continue working at the mall with 16-year-olds. I am entering the adult world (sort of) and that means I get to buy business-like new clothes. Just kidding. I am not only grateful for shopping. I swear.
