GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!

Below is a link to Neil Pasricha's TED talk, "The 3 A's of Awesome." The talk is AWESOME. I love his positive attitude and zest for life! I want to hangout with him.

Thanks for sending this to me, MacKenzie Rawcliffe!!!

happy quote

I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles.

CAN'T STOP LISTENING!

totally obsessed with this song/band...

Here's an excerpt from a Billboard.com article about The Head and The Heart:

Nor is the sextet your average flash-in-the-pan buzz band. Though the group had every opportunity to blow up-by the end of 2011, it'll have played Sasquatch, Bonnaroo, Newport and Austin City Limits, not to mention the late-night trifecta of "Letterman," "Conan" and "Fallon"-the Head and the Heart prefer to play low- and mid-capacity venues. The band tours small towns and chats with fans on Twitter and at its merch table. The act concentrates on local, noncommercial radio stations and plays in-store sets to support independent record shops. The Head and the Heart is taking care to leave no stone unturned, and this grass-roots approach -- coupled with a hotbed local scene and a universal appeal -- has enabled the band to realize an uncompromising, independent career path that works -- and works well.

Also, the boys in the band are prettttty cute.

the head and the heart- lost in my mind

happiness tip

Save: Keep 3 to 6 months salary in an emergency fund, in case you lose your job or your car breaks down; don't forget to put money aside for retirement. If you know your basic needs are covered, you'll be happier,  and actually having that money when you need it will do wonders for your peace of mind.

a weekend on the coast of maine

catch phrase, motor booty affair, family, beach, drinking copious amounts of alcohol, staying up til 5am, friends from home, dancing, chillin on a floating device in the ocean for hours, lots of food, boys, 4th of july parade, driving around in a jeep, twisted tea, OOB, cornell friends visiting, kayaking, a party on a boat, saying "if this isn't good, i don't know what is" multiple times a day, sleeping during the day, playing with Sadie, blasting music, late night McDonald's run........... GLORIOUS.

positive quote

I'm so optimistic I'd go after Moby Dick in a row boat and take the tartar sauce with me.

Kenny G's appearance in Katy Perry's TGIF

OBSESSED WITH THE FACT THAT KENNY G WAS IN KATY PERRY'S LATEST VIDEO. saxophone solo in a major pop song?... YES, PLEASE.

love this song, however, it does seem to reflect my Fridays a little too closely lately.

Kenny G's appearance is at 3:57.
