[OLD navy]

I went to Old Navy tonight with my mom and laughed that they are selling these again...but who DIDN'T own one of these in 3rd grade?




This reminded me of other OLD trends:


butterfly clips. the best were the ones that changed colors in the sun.


sketchers. it's the s. before those weird "shape-ups" they have now.

ummmm excuse me it's called a SKORT.



slap bracelets. trying to make a comeback in the form of silly bandz.



these were the greatest. besides when strands of hair got stuck to them.
jelly sandals = crocs



the zig-zag part.



the choker tattoo. (remember the rainbow ones?)


this is a two-in-one.  one, the scrunchie itself. two, anyone who plays sports remembers trying to get your sleeves to stay rolled up (and eventually tucking them under your bra) but wasn't it brilliant when these velcro straps came out to hold your sleeves up?! 

The list could go on forever with toys, books, and t.v. shows.

[storm]



For some reason this blizzard warning is exciting to me.  I almost fee like I'm on Twister or something.  Besides the fact that I don't wear high-waisted cargo pants or run around with Bill Paxton.....who until now I thought was Dennis Quaid for some reason.


Anyway, school closed down at 2:00 today which means my lab was cancelled. Bahah like I was going.

[ways to live and not merely exist]

i'm not an artistic or poetic person, but i found this on the internet while i was wasting my time so i thought i'd share a bit of it.
[1]  love: anyone, anything, it doesn't have to be romantic.
[2]  get outside: play in the rain, run barefoot in the grass.
[3]  savor food: quit dieting, just be smart.
[4]  create a morning ritual: enjoy it.
[5]  take chances:  be bold, risk it all, what do you have to lose?
[6]  follow excitement: or it gets away.
[7]  find your passion:  you only live once.
[8] smile at each person you see: it could make their day + it's healthy.
[9]  turn off your tv:  how many hours do we have to live? unplug it.
[10]  get off the internet:  it's mostly a waste of time.
[11]  travel: you'll never regret it.
[12]  rediscover what's important: make a list of all that matters to you.
[13]  eliminate everything else: turn that list into 10 things--the rest are taking up your time.
[14]  exercise:  you'll feel alive.
[15]  be positive:  otherwise you're self-doubting, critical, and a complainer
[16]  open your heart:  easier said than done, but try it.
[17]  kiss in the rain:  old news.
[18]  face your fears:  and you'll free them.
[19]  when you suffer, suffer:  feel it, move on, and find joy.
[20]  slow down:  enjoy what you do, learn to move at a snail's pace.
[21]  touch humanity:  give up your materialistic lifestyle for a while.
[22]  volunteer:  help others and you'll be happy.
[23]  play with children:  they add life.
[24]  talk to old people:  you could learn something.
[25]  learn new skills:  you never know when they'll come in handy.
[26]  find spirituality:  nothing else will go so far.
[27]  do nothing:  sometimes a relaxation is much needed.
[28]  watch sunsets, daily:  it's healthy and calming.
[29]  stop reading magazines:  they're crap anyway.
[30]  break out from ruts:  change it up, even if it's just a new route to school or work.
[31]  stop watching the news:  it's depressing.
[32]  laugh till you cry:  it's the best pain.
[33]  lose control:  you'll learn.
[34]  cry:  it's healthy and cleansing.
[35]  make an awesome dessert:  it's amazing.
[36]  try something new, every week:  noting huge, just a new little adventure.
[37]  be in the moment:  don't wait, and don't plan ahead.
