Favorite songs of '09
Roslyn—Bon Iver and St. Vincent i kind of think the twilight movies should be held responsible for emotionally abusing a generation of tween girls. that’s why i was so surprised when i realized this beautiful song was a cut from the new moon soundtrack. it sounds how i feel on a snowy thursday morning, warm in my bed, fighting to keep my eyes closed.
1901—Phoenix my friend...
a woman of peace (new years resolution)
wearekatiekindler:
her life is surrendered to God. she’s learning to trust Him with the outcome and she anticipates His plan is better. she tends to the hearts of loved ones. petty details decline in value to her. love matters more. she’s eternity minded. she’s interruptible. she sees everybody as humans who need love and want value and applaud. she knows everything needs to be covered...
Watchall i want for christmas is… chelsea!
“i have more fun when i’m with her, so i always try to be where she is.”
– jon krasinski
just heard jon say this about his fiancee, emily blunt, and i thought it was sweet.
John Mayer- Do You Know Me →
using “who says” as the lead single from this album really turned me off to the whole thing. i actually wrote a pretty brutal blog about it and then took it down because, i dunno, it just felt too negative. i have loved jm from the begining but i feel like he’s at this crucial point in his career where he needs to stop focusing on himself and his relationships and get on with...
“Calling somebody else fat won’t make you any skinnier. Calling someone...”
– come on. you guys know what this is from.
just wanted you guys to know that the best getting ready to go to a christmas party on sunday night when it’s already dark and you kind of want to lay in your bed and crochet song is “upgrade u.” but you probably already knew that.
first-world problems, i’ve got them you guys. this isn’t that big of a deal by any stretch of the imagination, but today i’ve been kind of nervous that lebron isn’t going to stay in cleveland after this season (hello shanna, welcome to 2 months ago, right?). i just really hope he does because it makes me feel so proud when people talk about lebron and in my heart i know...

i’ve written about my burgeoning yet shameful love for taylor swift before. you know what, i’ve dealt with it. as far as public figures go, she’s a good role model for the types of girls who look up to and mimic celebrities. she’s best friends with her mom. while her live performance leaves something to be desired, i think her lyrics are accurate and more clever than most...

i just found out the best thing about AK. apparently, his senior pictures were taken by locklear photography, which is owned by the brother of heather locklear. this is definitely one of the top ten reasons why i’m marrying him.
the evolution of the hipster
definitely feel like most of my friends are stuck around the mountain man phase. i topped out at fauxhemian and lately i’ve been appalled at how much i no longer care about my clothes, hair or makeup. it’s kind of sad. most days i look like a complete wreck.

“thank you God. for it all. thank you for friendships that generate you and for the ones that don’t. thank you for the ambiguity of life and the moments to lay hold of. thank you for the memories that never leave and for the ones that hurt. Somehow, in the grand scheme of chaos and un-clarity, offering it up to you and declaring it all as yours puts this beautifully unclear end-cap...
