Thought for the day: My tHAIRapy

Elle Woods gets her nails nr therapy…for , my therapy is getting these awful brown roots covered.

Yes, I am THAT girl.

When I am sad…or just a bit down in the dumps…all my problems seem to disappear just like my roots do over the 2.5 hours process known as my hair appointment.

Makes me feel like a new person to get my hair back to its (wanna be) natural colour.

Truly. There is no better feeling than getting pampered.

Getting your hair done makes you feel spectacular.

No questions asked.

It is amazing. I love it.

This is part of the reason I don’t mind getting my hair done every five weeks…also…the fact my roots are DARK BROWN has a bit to do with it as well.

Plus, I really enjoy keeping up my persona that I am a natural blonde.

At heart anyways 😉

Thought for the day: Bottom of the totem pole

Being a student has its frustrations….

paying tuition…having to be stuck in dorms… having to sit through lectures over and over again…no money…

and one thing I have come across…you hold no weight in the world.

As a MA student I STILL have no power to claim.

I try to get interviews…and people turn you down because you are a student. Does not matter that you are getting your Masters degree….

That student title just ruins everything.

People assume you have no idea what you are talking about…when really…if given the chance…you know more than people think.

I am coming across these road blocks while trying to figure out what to do about my final project…and my radio docs that are upcoming.

I have some brilliant ideas…and guess what…none of them are feasable because I am a student…and people don’t give me the access I need…or interviews I need to make an awesome documentary.

Give us a chance people!

Not all top notch journalists start this way…. they all start like me.

A STUDENT JOURNALIST!

People these days. Take a second to give someone a chance…please? I mean really. What is the worst that can happen?

It is an interview people.

Have a little faith in your upcoming generations.

Thought for the day: Someone…

Every girl has a check list, on paper…in her mind…whatever, of what we want in a man.

We look for these key items, even if we forget sometimes just how important they really are to us when it comes to the long haul.

I have been thinking lately about what I want when it comes to future relationships.

With a handful of my friends getting engaged, married, etc…how can a girl not think about what I want for the future?

I know, like most girls…we just want to find a guy who thinks about our feelings and not just his own. Someone who understands what you are going through when something upsets you.

Someone who loves you for your insecurities…and reassures you you have nothing to worry about.

Someone who loves you for your crazy personality, your random mood swings where you just want to pick a fight, your slight jealousy issues….

Someone who knows when not to say anything…just to let you rant, cry, whatever the case may be…and just listen.

Someone who can read you like a book. Someone who knows when you really are not “fine”.

Someone who wants a relationship not only based on the physical aspect of things…but can actually have a serious, heart felt conversation with you.

Someone who will hold you when you cry.

Someone who sees a future with you…not just a temporary thing until something better comes along.

Someone who tells you you are beautiful…even when you look terrible.

Someone who can handle your disfunctional family…and understands that they will never truly understand what you are going through…but will support you either way.

Someone who pushes you towards your goals…like you do for them.

Someone equally as driven and motivated as you… someone who knows what they want with their future.

Someone who loves you…FOR YOU..and all your imperfections.

Thought for the day: Where will I be?

I hate when people ask me “where do you see yourself in a few years?”

Honestly people…how am I suppose to know the answer to that question?

I don’t even know where I will be come September, let alone where I will be three or more years from now.

Really. Life could go so many directions with me at this point in time.

I could get into law school and stay in London for another couple of years, while if I don’t get into law school…I will need to find a job.

Then that leaves the question on where in the world will I find a job? The US? London? Somewhere else in the world? Who knows!

And I am only 22. I could meet the love of my life, be swept off my feet and move to where ever he is. Wouldn’t that throw a curve ball in my life’s direction?

Haha imagine it!

So many aspects of my life are still unsure…I could go left…I could go right. Who knows at this point.

I am okay with not knowing where I will be in the next year. At this time in my life, I am just going with the flow.

Why worry about tomorrow…when today is not even over?

Food for thought. Think about it 🙂

Thought for the day: Somewhere over the rainbow

I woke up this morning singing this song…and talk about a great way to start off a day!

I mean honestly, what a great motivating song! It is all about seeing your dreams and seeing that there is no reason anything should be stopping you from obtaining them.

I love this movie. I love this song. It is just so happy and positive. Something we should all remember.

So sing this song to yourself today…and realise that YOUR DREAMS ARE REACHABLE…so go get them 🙂

Somewhere Over The Rainbow from the Wizard of Oz

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There’s a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I’ll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That’s where you’ll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can’t I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can’t I?

Thought for the day: Sleep talking at its finest

Yes, I am one of those who suffer from sleep talking.

Maybe it is the fact I talk a lot in general so I just can’t help but talk in my sleep?

Who knows!

Either way.. I do it. ALL THE TIME! Especially when I happen to have someone sleeping in my room.

This weekend my lovely friend Kristen was my roomie. Luckily for her, I had warned her that I tend to talk/walk in my sleep..so if I talked…I encouraged her to take full advantage of the situation and mess with me.

What else would a true friend do right?

Funny enough. I did talk in my sleep. Apparently it was about Uni too. Go figure. I am on holiday and I can’t get Uni work out of my head.

Since we were both exhausted…once she heard me talking. Kristen just said, “Jordan, shut up!” Apparently, all I did in reply was giggle and say “sorry!”

Glad to know I am as chipper in my sleep as I am when I am awake.

I have had many occasions where my poor friends have heard me sleep talk.

Sarah once was sleeping over and I started yelling (at who is a mystery) saying “It’s Patrick Dempsey…NO! It’s Patrick Swayze!.. No body puts baby in the corner!”

HAHA…awesome right? Sarah and I still laugh about it.

I know when I sleep talk/walk. I usually wake up in the morning knowing I did it. Luckily no one really ever witnesses the sleep talking/walking except some lucky individuals.

Suppose there is not much I can do.

I just am a naturally, constant chatter box…day in AND day out 🙂
