Why You Should Stop Trusting Twitter. →
This is unreal. I heavily rely on Twitter as a news source for sports and currents events, though I’m (usually) cautious to RT or pass information along without checking it’s validity. What this guy did though? Awesome.

I have funny friends. →
Need proof? Meet Alex Faubel, she of long blonde locks and the ability to rap Gangster’s Paradise better than Coolio, who has quite the witty blog. Typically her posts revolve around the adventures at the bus depot she works at, though there are random posts thrown in that are equally as amusing. Mind you, anything at a bus depot would be interesting to say the least (think DMV…but...

Random Thoughts.
YouTubeing because I am exhausted yet cannot seem to settle down and allow myself to sleep. Feeling anxious for no apparent reason. Watching videos that feature a soundtrack of Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros paired video montages of varying types; the last one was a group of uniquely facial haired boys in their early 20s on a road trip, the current video is a collaboration of “All...

How did I never hear of nor attend the Railroad Revival Tour? Mumford and Sons, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, and Old Crow Medicine Show?! Heartbroken. All performing “This Train Is Bound for Glory” together. Magical.

My Favorite Songs, Playlist.

So, I decided to instead comprise a playlist of my will-forever-be-my-favorite, songs. It’s quite an eclectic and random...

Seriously?
This time last year, I was unemployed. I worked out for about two hours a day and applied for jobs. This time this year, I am on a three week paid vacation. AND I AM GOING BATTY. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF.
Mind you, this is only technically day four of this vacation. DAY FOUR I TELL YOU. What the hell do all my friends who leisurely “live the dream” do every day? I posted a...

Life is glorious and vibrant and joyous at points, but it is essentially tragic....
– David Simon, creator of Treme on HBO, a show I’ve never watched but heard rave reviews about much due to it’s honest and sometimes harsh portrayal of life in New Orleans. Life not revolving around drunken debauchery on Bourbon Street, but the raw lives of the heart and soul of the city....

– “It’s not going to turn out the way you thought.” Sometimes, a piece of writing is everything that you need to hear. This is one of those times.

I have a confession.
I have a major girl crush going on right now. Okay, so not just right now, it’s been steadily developing, but now that she started blogging it has gone from here to HERE.
Two words: Chrissy Teigen.
First I liked her because her name is Christine, my middle name, and people rarely spell it like I do. Brownie points. And that may seem like a ridiculous reason for liking someone, but you have...
