on my mind.

Sometimes I can't think of anything to write about. So I'm just going to ramble. Here is what's in my head on this day (October 9, 2012):

Every single morning I am seriously distraught about what to wear. Jeffrey doesn't quite understand it, but my day is somehow always worse if I don't like what I'm wearing. Is this vain? I don't know. It isn't that I need to look like I just walked off the runway, but I like to be comfortable and feel good about myself. This translates to me (seriously) stressing about my outfit. 

In my Spanish class the other day we were talking about some grammatical concept that I still don't understand and I told my classmate (simply put) that Cary Grant is the best (note: I said this in Spanish). She responded with, "Cary Grant...who is she?"

She. 

Whaaat? No. He. Cary Grant is a he. How do you not know who Cary Grant is? 

Sadly, this isn't the first time this has happened. Most have never heard of James Dean or Gregory Peck either. Just so everyone knows, my children will be very well versed on all of the above (and then some...see: Audrey Hepburn, Gene Kelly). 

Speaking of Cary Grant...Have you ever seen Sleepless in Seattle? If you've read my blog at all, you know I'm a big fan. There is one scene where Rita Wilson is telling Tom Hanks (and whoever plays her husband in the movie) the story of An Affair to Remember. As she's telling it, she starts crying. Actually it is more like full on weeping. The whole scene is just pure greatness (And if you haven't seen it you need to watch it immediately). Because of this little scene one hard day (last year sometime, I think) my mom and I decided to watch An Affair to Remember. And I don't know if it is a girl thing (like they claim it to be in Sleepless in Seattle) or if we were just highly hormonal, but all of a sudden, towards the end of the movie: there we sat. Crying our eyes out. Real, actual tears streaming down our faces. We then looked at each other and started laughing out loud. Hard. We were actually laugh-crying. It was one of my favorite moments ever. 

Please watch this movie for me. Keep a box of tissues close by. And don't forget to enjoy Cary's charm--everything about him screams charm, does it not? 

changing things.

I leave in ten days.

To the land of wizards and things.

I'M EXCITED.

and a little scared.

But we'll focus on the first part! 

my happy thoughts:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 1) will come out while I am in London (YES)
Joshua Radin will still be on his UK tour
I get Thanksgiving off while I'm there (even though they don't celebrate it..duh)
I'm going with some basically awesome girls
including this one:

 (I love her)
I get to be in London during Fall (possibly my favorite season)
I will be living in a place with an address that actually sounds magical
I will get to start wearing my hunter rain boots
The museums are FREE
(which means I get to go any time I want)
Soon I'll be attending as many plays and musicals as I possibly can
I'm going to be someplace new
and that sounds perfect right about now.

Seasonal Bliss.

my feelings for sweet Summer.

Dear Summer,
Thank you for treating me so well. I thoroughly enjoyed your long, homeworkless nights. You always knew how to fill my days with nothing yet still make me happy. Thanks for the warm sun-filled days (with a few rainy ones thrown in). I have loved wearing my shorts and my swimsuit. The breeze you brought with you was very kind. BBQs, parties, swimming, my first trip to Lake Powell, reading whatever and whenever I please, wonderful summer movies, and a lot of ice cream. I will love you forever, but I'm ready for Fall.


Thanks again,
xo molly jane

my love for Fall.

Dear Fall,
Oh how I love you. I can feel you coming near. You bring so many great things into my life. Returning to school and feeling you inch closer fills my mind with memories and excitement for the future (whether that be near or distant.) I absolutely adore everything that you bring. I can practically smell you in the air, I can taste your yumminess. Leaves slowly shift from one color to the next. The night air is no longer free and warm, but crisp and mysterious. I love that about you. Everything is darker and richer. Deep oranges, reds, and greens. Boots, scarves, jackets. All ready for your new season. Thank you for being here so soon, and also thank you for bringing me that much closer to my beloved snow (probably the top of my list for why I love Fall.) Thank you.


All my love,
xo molly jane

Favorite Quote of the Day

Boy: "Yeah, I ran the St. George Marathon"

Girl: "Oh really? How long is that one?"

Boy: "Really long.... 26.2 miles."

Girl: "Are you serious?? That is so long!?!"

In my Head: "YEah, the St. George one is quite a bit longer than most?!?!"

(yes, I am rather sarcastic in my head)

FYI:

Marathon=26.2 miles (every time)

Rachel's getting MARRIED!

She's marrying her cute boyfriend Isaiah and I am so happy for her :) December 19th in SLC. I get to be her bridesmaid! Happy day. They are going to have such a wonderful life.

Football season has begun. GO COUGS! (Yes, it is true, we really did beat the number 3 team)

GO T-BIRDS! My little brother Alex is quite the footballer. Isn't he cute? #72 for life.

Yeah, we're his number 1 fans!

I got a gym pass. I know. Shocker. Whitney and I got them on Saturday night (which was quite the night, full of fun :) Gold's Gym sure knows how to sell. I'll be up in the gym just a workin' on my fitness.

Don't you think it will be a blast? I sure do. I got it mostly for the classes.

Especially this YOGA.

I'm excited. Hopefully I'll actually use it. Maybe it will lower my stressors :)

Oh and PS. I forgot to share my love for my new laptop. It's beeeeauuuutiful. I don't know how I ever lived without it :) Thank you daddy (late graduation present)!!!

I'm a Mac girl. All the way.
