Bucket List - Climb a Water Tower

             Yes, the idea of climbing a water tower has always excited me. I'm sure I'm not the only one here who feels this way. I mean, imagine climbing up, up, up and way into the sparkling blue. The victory you feel when you've reached the top and you can see the entire countryside from the peak of the tower. The exhilaration that pumps through your veins when you've realized that you made it. Now, I've never experienced this, but it just sounds so riveting. Of course, this is against the law unless you know the owner of the water tower. So basically, I either have to become besties with a water tower owner or become a criminal in order to complete my bucket list. O well, one can dream...

Vintage Movies

                 Pinned Image             


                          Recently I've been trying to watch some of the more classic older movies. I started with "An Affair to Remember" with Cary Grant. Amazing movie. Could bring you to tears. This movie...(sigh)... was amazing... honestly probably better than any movie a girl could ever see. Next I watched "Roman Holiday" with Audrey Hepburn. I believe this was one of the first movies she had debuted in. The movie was actually filmed in Rome... there's no green screen in this one. Its absolutely darling, although I wasn't as fond of the ending of this movie... oh its happy alright, just not as settling as I thought it would be. Lastly, this weekend I experienced the one, the only... "Breakfast at Tiffany's" with Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard. It leaves me at a loss for words... amazing ending, wonderful actors... just moving... trailer is below.

All Smiles

Pinned ImageThe cold weather and excessively fun weekend ahead of me puts me in all smiles today. Its just one of those days where you ride your bike down the street singing along with your tinny sounding iPod with no care in the world. Of course the cars passing you probably think you're a bit loopy, but in all actuality you're just happy to be where you are with everyone who surrounds you. That's how today is. A day where all I want to do is relax and enjoy the cool autumn breeze while basking in the radiance of the sun. I guess I'm a bit corny... but that's how dreamers are sometimes.

Michael Buble' Christmas...

                Yes, its the beginning of November and Thanksgiving still won't take place for a few more weeks, but I honestly will always believe that its never too early to start listening to Michael Buble's new Christmas CD. Its much nicer than his last one and listening to his soothing voice just send chills down my spine. So here, I've given you a little taste of it below.

Always a child...

             It's true, I will always be a child at heart. Sure, in life we must move on, grow up, and be mature enough to handle our own families eventually, but for some reason I will always believe in fairy-tales. I honestly believe that if Cinderella was a real person, she'd be my role model. I mean, she had such a sweet heart, she put up with evil step-sisters, and even when clothed in rags her kind heart and natural beauty shined like diamonds. And well, we also can't forget that a single pair of shoes changed her life. Of course it helped that she had fairy-godmother and was friends with mice that could sew. But even so, against all odds, her life was drastically changed. One night at a dance (she didn't even have a date!) and the next week she marries a prince and becomes a princess living in a beautiful castle. Thank goodness Christ did the same thing for us. One day a we're a wretched sinner, the next His glorious bride for all eternity. That's truly a "happily, ever after."
