a day in the life: VALENTINES DAY edition
-woke up, went to my 8am, it was super pointless as usual…ended up chatting with a friend about his trip to new york, super jelly! he saw jeremy scott during nyfw!! *zomg* -came back home took a short nap (why do i nap so much lately?), ate lunch super early to prepare my stomach for the upcoming gluttonous evening that was planned -class at 1250…globalization…kewl -class at...
senioritis
is it bad that i feel like my professors did something wrong to me when they give me an ample amount of work during my last semester of school ever? #seniorprobs
did i also mention that i have the worst case of senioritis and i can’t even imagine doing the amount of work i did last semester this semester…
all i can think about right now is SUN (it’s SO cold now…), guac...

no, not the korean actor sillies…
…but, my dad!
my friend asked me why my brother and i talk a lot more about my dad than my lovely, sweet little momma. and i was reminded exactly why we talk about him 10 times more tonight…it’s because of convos like this…
dad: liz me: what’s up? dad: you me: what’s up? dad: you me: ughhh what’s up? dad: you...
a day in the life: february 2, 2012 edition
woke up this morning with a headache, decided that i was going to skip my 8am. instead, watched 2 episodes of 30 rock in bed until 9am. i love kenneth.
went to school to try to get some work done, ended up chatting it up with a friend. homework FAIL.
had a “job search” hangout with my friend. 30 mins into it, i declared i was hungry so we went to chik-fil-a.
went to class at...
if there is one thing I’ve learned through these past few weeks is how important it is to voice your thoughts and let your opinion be heard! that small act in itself can set you free, or at the very least give you a small sweet piece of peace.
nothing really extraordinary can come out of being timid.

You alone can rescue You alone can save You came down to find us, led us out of death To You alone belongs the highest praise
like my fellow peers have already posted, the message today at Summit was the first message in a long time that made me realize and fully challenge the decisions that i make daily. as senior year concludes in a mere 3 short months, i’ve been busy scrambling putting...

i am such a girl.
…i overanalyze everything… …i need constant reassurance about many things… …needless to say, i have body issues… …i worry about what others think about me maybe a little too much… …i maybe too sensitive at times… …i think about what my next outfit will be too much… …ditto for the nail colors, crazy much?… …im...

thanksgiving is so soon! *freakout* hehe
with that being said, i literally cannot believe that the semester is basically over. i think i only have 2 more weeks of class before exams commence. to say the least, senior year has not been what i’ve expected, ya know? more than the fun times rolling, it’s like the stress is rolling. to whoever said that senior year is such a breeze,...

school woes
if it’s not a certain project ( i have 4 major ones, btw!) i’m doing or stressing about, it’s my unpredictable employment status for next year, then it’s all the emails that i have to attend to pertaining to school, then it’s filling out resumes/personal statements/applications…UGH.
i am so over school already. senior year, where is all yo’ fun at?
i can’t believe i’m quoting kanye west, but i think it’s something i (and probably a lot of other people) should hear from time to time. so, in the words of yeezy:
“believe in your flyness, conquer your shyness”
word? word.
sometimes its just so nice to go to a barnes and noble or starbucks and study…instead of the boring ole library or staying in to study at the apt…
it’s a nice touch to this mundane, but nice wednesday.
finally fall break!! it is such a much needed break! before i head down to atlanta to eat,eat,eat and shop, shop, shop with my momma (ajumma trip ftw)…here are some rando thoughts/highlights…
1) well, i legit had the best 21st birthday party ever. it was seriously so much fun, for me at least! based on what i’ve heard from my amazing guests, it sounds like they had lots of...
super annoying things in liz’s life right now:
1) incompetent group members. SERIOUSLY GUYS? we’re all seniors, you should know how to do an effing project..now im sitting here redoing your stuff so we don’t get an F tomorrow. also, please use grammar and vocabulary words suitable for 21+ year olds…UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH UGH x100000000. i get...

i don’t know why im posting on tumblr AGAIN. i guess im just in a tumblin’ mood. anyway, i feel like doing a WHATCHU KNOW ABOUT ME pt. 2 (didn’t even know there was a part one, did ya?) …so im going to do it. this maybe a lame-o post, but i dont care. plus, its my one day of the year to do whatever the hell i want, so why not?
WHATCHU KNOW ABOUT ME (pt. 2): 1) im...
im not saying that birthdays should be the only time you should reflect on how blessed and loved you really are, but it’s a pretty darn good reminder. i may not have a ton of friends, but i do have some awesome/grade-A quality friends and family who make me delicious “homemade” apple pie (a la mode, may i add!), call me right at midnight to wish me a happy birthday, send me...
today is just one of those days where things just suck.
the only good things about today are that my eyeliner looks perfect and my birthday is in 2 days. yippee.
i have never felt so compelled to take a spontaneous trip or do something fun or crazy. the monotony of my everyday life is slowly making me go batshit crazy. groundhog day, everyday.
i want to sit at Your feet drink from the cup in Your hands lay back against you and breathe feel Your heartbeat this love is so deep, it’s more than I can stand i melt in Your peace
sometimes it’s so hard to not get caught up with worldly matters and certain lies that the enemy may feed you. many times i find myself in desperate need to remind myself that my self-worth, beauty, and approval is not found in others, but found in Him…
and frankly, that’s all that matters.

after i graduate i secretly want to have a eat, pray, love experience. travel the world, eat a lot, and just focus on myself, and fall in love…hehe ^^

so cheers to fob bangs and to senior year (OMG i start school on wednesday!)
farewell LA
so, it has come to an end! my summer journey here in LA is complete. tomorrow i leave at 7am from LAX back to hot, humid, sticky, and muggy NC. and what a journey it has been! i feel like i started kind of lost and dazed in this awesome, yet very superficial city. although, i’m very excited to go back and see my parents and friends, i can’t help but feel sad that my time here has...

2 more weeks
Ahh blogging from work! Today is the first time I actually had the guts to blog while I’m at work! It doesn’t hurt that it’s also my lunch break.
BUT…
I have precisely 2 more weeks left in LA! Crazy, huh? I wonder where the time has gone! I want to do anything and everything California-esque I can during these last two weeks! But I will say work makes everyday go...
girls,
wonder who the person is that finds all the “who wore it best” pictures? its the interns. yesterday, i had to research images/celebrities on who wore the most similar outfit to jessica alba’s outfit to the lucky magazine party on wednesday. i chose helen mirren and emailed it to my boss, where my boss then pitched it to many fashion/celebrity sites.
i was on my usual...
at the halfway point of my stay here…
sighs, i think i’ll really miss california when i leave
i was looking through my fb and saw a ton of people i don’t talk to anymore. time for a fb friend cleanse? maybeeeeeee
and it’s funny, it’s so apparent when people just don’t know anything about each other anymore.
for example, in my case, i know i haven’t talked to somebody in a long time if they call me elizabeth…because it’s the name on my facebook....
