Florence + the Machine - Shake It Out
Torts, you got this. I love you! See you very soon!
i got this.
559 plays20 years ago today a little bouncing baby girl was born. her face was round and her smile was big, like any perfect baby’s should be. just from the simple fact that this child was already a great little combination of genes, she was already destined for great things; but now as she leaves her teens and gets further into adulthood - we all get to really experience just how great those things are and can be.
it may be hard to be believe, but this girl is even more beautiful on the inside than she is on the outside (you should see her spleen, it’s AH-MAHZING). never one to turn down an opportunity to meet someone new, little miss tyler anne brightens the life of anyone that has the chance to be in her presence. while she collects oodles and oodles of crowns and titles, she spreads joy and giggles into the masses of people that swarm her on a daily basis. she understands the importance of being more than a pretty face and a hot bod - becoming such a wonderful human being with each passing day.
i am so lucky to call this girl my best friend.
happy birthday, t. can’t wait for dinner :)
p.s. we need to recreate all of their photoshoots. all of them. we look pretty disgusting in 90% of our pictures together. we will take loads of lovely picture tonight, but we really need like a legit photo session.
"I don’t have that many people on my Skype contact list. Just some friends from church, family - oh and Skype Test Call. I can always count on them. They’re always online."
-my dearest MelissaMy dear stephaniemaegan is taking her PCAT on Monday.
I was initially going to write in her ask box, but it became a lot longer than I expected and that wee little box couldn’t handle it.
To my lovely:
HI THERE!!!!
You are about to venture off into the three days that I like to call: … I was really hoping to come up with something clever, but alas - nothing. So I will continue on with a little advice, a dash of good luck wishes, and a ton of love. I want you to breathe and relax, it’ll all be over soon. You can do this. And no matter what Dr. Aguilera will fight to the death for you, there are absolutely NO reasons to have any qualms (nice word, right?). Your head is exploding with information, you can beat this test (ready for the first cliche?) - your only enemy is yourself.
There’s a reason why they look at how you stack up against everyone else rather than exactly how many you got right/wrong - this test wasn’t meant to be taken question by question, killing every answer with raw brain power, this is a test of endurance and strategy. The sadistic members of pharmacy school admissions board want to know just how hard you’ll push to be a pharmacist. They have pitted us against each other to find out who’s “better.” Don’t let this become a standardized test taking skills assessment, but don’t neglect those skills either.
You have the knowledge, you just need to have confidence in your brain! Let is do its thang! I bet if we just opened up that head of yours organic structures and scientific names would flood the majority of southern Texas. You’ve got this. You will come out of that room happy. You will beat my score and make me feel like a failure compared to you (but in an awesome-supportive-nonresentful way!). I want you to go in there Monday morning and just destroy that exam. Grab that test by its metaphorical hips and tell it that it’s your turn to lead (I’m not sure how this led into a dance metaphor).
And remember: YOU CAN SKIP, IT’S OKAY. Embrace your short attention span. It will help you.
My slightly-lesbionic-at-times-friendship-love for you burns with the intensity of a thousand flaming suns and I send tons of good juju your way.

I sure do hope you see this. It would be really cool if I didn’t have to tell you about it. I hop you stumble upon it.
Through all the crappiness of life I still find time to be happy through my friends’ happiness. I just finished an amazing weekend of Tyler-related happiness and came home to a load of Steph-related happiness.
They inspire me.
Just like this amazing couple in this here picture.
Steph: I warned you that this photo made me want to do hipster things.

Tumbling: You're doing it right?
I call this An Ode to Karah.
Today is my best friend’s birthday.
She’s an old lady now.
But I still love her. We don’t really say that to each other, but it really is true. I love her beyond words. We may have this tendency to drift apart every once and a while, but I know that I can always go to her for anything and tell her anything. I can depend on her. I can trust her.
She is one of the greatest people you could ever meet. She is sweeter than pie and all around adorable. She’ll make you laugh, smile, and shake your head at her - every moment with her is one for le books.
She is moving away soon and (this is a little indirect, but karitapenitabonita don’t think that this is it. you will be getting some tear filled love from me - I’m just not ready to really face all this.) I will miss her immensely. She is basically one of the first real best friends I’ve ever had. She took me as I am and I can’t even begin to comprehend why.
Her heart is as big as the universe that she will eventually explore and I don’t know what I would ever do without her.
Happy birthday, best friend.
Some photobooth pictures I forgot to upload…
Pre//post The Blow :)
Yes, that is a signed vinyl and CDs.
Edit: This came out a lot cuter than I thought it would.
