sweet dispositions

satisfying love

When Valentine’s Day rears its red, pink and heart-shaped self back into my life, I turn into one of those girls who can’t help but cling to thoughts of that one special moment I’m going to spend with my love.

“Love” is not a word I throw around lightly, but I know I’ve found it this time, and it’s not going to go away easily. I have all the symptoms that accompany deep affection: my thoughts drift me all the way up to Cloud Nine, I count down the seconds until our next reunion and I have developed an instant connection to every sappy love song in existence. Perhaps Usher said it best with, “You got it, you got it bad,” because I do and I’m not afraid to say it.

I know it might seem difficult to understand, but when you’ve found that rich, dark and smooth “special someone,” you do all you can to show what this love means to you. And this relationship isn’t all superficial. No, there are plenty of true, personal feelings involved as well. My love is sweet and innocent and just the thought of it plasters a goofy smile on my face. Yes, you know you’ve found The One when every moment together increases your heart rate, makes you melt and never fails to pick you up when you’re down.

I may be only 20 years old, but my relationship is so strong and real that I can say with confidence this is the love of my life. For some, Valentine’s Day might mean a chance to show your significant other how much they mean to you by turning to consumerism. For me, Valentine’s Day is the biggest opportunity I have to greedily indulge myself. This year, and every year to come, I will be saying those three little words over and over again, “I love chocolate.”

Goodnight and good luck

Hi. 

I’m sorry I’ve been such a terrible blogger. Guess I’m not cut out for writing a novel everyday. I’m watching Sex and the City right now (movie) and I have the sudden urge to watch Chick Flicks and eat chocolate with my friends. So sad that Big and Carrie are separated most of the film. Anyway, pretty sure I’m going to delete my tumblr. There’s just no point. All I do is stalk celebs and (pitch perf ref) lesbehonest, I do that all day, err day. No one needs a tumblr account for that. This is probs my last post. Unless someone puts up a gif of Louis Tomlinson doing something funny or a really emotional HP anything. Also, thinking of moving onto vlogging. I want to be a profesh YouTuber, so wait and see how that goes. If anything, I’ve succeeded in being a profesh tweeter (@snunez_27). I’m really interesting and obsessive, I promise.

So the scene I’m watching for SATC is the New Year and I decided to forgo the New Year’s Resolutions this year. Except, I kind of told myself I would be more punctual but that has failed in every way possible and we’re only 18 days in, so there you have it. I forgot I had a list up here from last year, so I thought an update would be a proper ending to my tumblr career and here it goes:

1. Paint my nails at least once a week, and never chip the polish This was the simplest one. Glad it’s at the top of the list. Chipping is inevitable so Self, GET OVER IT.

2. Wash my face every night and every morning There may have been like, seven days where we skipped this. That’s in the whole year so yay.

3. Go at least one day a week without damaging my hair Easier than I thought

4. Wear SPF 30 (at least) and lotion every day Does my facial moisturizer count? I sometimes remember to put SPF on my hands/arms. And I’ve been better about the lotion. We’ll say it counts.

5. Exfoliate once a week! hahahahahahaha not.

6. Deep condition my hair once a week. I think not using heat once a week is the same thing.

7. Clean my makeup brushes once a week. Ain’t no one got time for that.

8. THROW OUT OLD MAKEUP!!! Just because it still looks new after 6 months since its last use, does not mean it is okay. Sure.

9. Wear my hair up at least once a week Surprisingly, yes!

10. Buy a queen-size tempur-pedic mattress (similar and cheaper brands will suffice) No more gall bladder problems so I have been enjoying my bed! I sleep in it so much. Best purchase I ever made. It will be 1 year old in a week. Also, I think I only owe like $300 on it so yay me.

11. Give my bedroom the sophisticated makeover it deserves! Um…this year for sure.

12. Buy a flat screen and a blu-ray player (one of which will need to have wi-fi capabilities). I bought the blu-ray! I’ll wait on the telly.

13. Travel. To San Fran. To New York. To England. To Germany. Buy some plane tickets at a great price, pick a date and travel somewhere I haven’t been. Somewhere outside of Texas. I went to LA. And saw the All-State guy and Psy before he was SUPER famous. Other than that….not much traveling. Hoping to go to London for Fall 2013, but we’ll see! Cross your fingers, please.

14. Sleep 6-8 hours a night. Oversleeping is absolutely acceptable, though. I get that much sleep if you count naps. Does oversleeping roll over?

15. Take my vitamins…everyday. Just started! Have been doing it every day for two weeks. It’s a new record, guys. #babysteps

16. Invest myself in a worthy cause. Disappointed in myself on this one.

17. JOIN A NEWSPAPER STAFF/GET AN INTERNSHIP. I covered women’s basketball! Now I’m doing news. First story due in thirteenish hours

18. Trim my hair at least every other month. Well. Nope.

19. Hit the gym!! At least 30 minutes of cardio 4 days a week. The hardest part is getting to the gym. The rest is cake! Um…..I’m supposed to start Insanity tomorrow so….

20. Wear heels more often. This failed miserably. 

21. Cut back on the bad food. It’s okay, but like everything, in moderation. I had my good moments. And chocolate isn’t bad.

22. Catch up on Grey’s Anatomy and finish Greek! OMG I DID IT, GUYS!!! AM ONEHUNDREDPERCENT CAUGHT UP ON GREY’S AND TOTES FINISHED WITH GREEK. 

23. Keep up with all my TV shows I’ve done pretty well! I’m behind on PR AllStars season 2. I think the winner was announced earlier this evening? Girl, IDK. And I’m only two epis behind on Modern Fam, but vacation, guys. I’ll catch up this weekend.

24. Text/Skype/Oovoo/call/email/tweet/Facebook my friends and family! Check in on them and be there for them. As much as I hate getting online and being glued to my phone, these relationships are important and I won’t let them suffer. Eh. This one is difficult to do. Sorry, I just can’t commit

25. Take more pictures Done! Just uploaded two albums to FB (which is irrelevant)

26. Write and talk about my feelings more. LOL was I feeling 13 when I wrote this res? No thanks.

27. Save money. Kind of. Also spent a lot though so…evens out.

28. Make the Dean’s list. Two semesters in a row!! Not bad for no gall bladder and skipping art app class every day for two whole months. 

29. Play the Lottery  I’ve won! Like two dollars. Really one because I lost one. But still!

30. Go more natural with the makeup…as in, try going out without any eyeliner. So hard! I did it!

31. Get a Vanity Fair subscription Omg done! But I think I did that earlier this year. Sorry, 2012.

32. Read more!!! Haven’t read in a long time. LONG. But I will!!

19/32 isn’t so bad. Go me! Again, this is probs the final post. Will delete soonish. Not like I had too many followers, but I never cared about that stuff. I just wanted to reblog cool gifs and let out some emotions every once in a while. I think that’s what teenagers do. Makes sense that I stopped about the time I turned 20. Anyway, life’s great right now. Stressing about juggling school/work/extra currics/newspaper, but that’s the usual. I also stress about not having enough time to consume media, so how rational am I? 

I think tumblr belongs to people more dedicated than I. So thanks to all of you who come up with photos and post/reblog/obsess and use appropriate hashtagging. I appreciate it when I Google One Direction. Keep up the hard work but please, have real friends and shut down your computers. They need a break, too. It’s been fun tumblr, but also stressful. We’re breaking up, but we’re staying friends. Goodnight and good luck!
