Asshole theory.

Darin once told me that some guys will treat girls like crap in thinking that it will make the girl want them more and that he had seen the successes of these actions.

I call this the 'asshole theory'. It is very intriguing and I guess it works for some guys.

But fun fact, it won't work on this girl. Next, please!

Marry me, j-mraz?

How adorable and young does j-mraz look in this video?? Anyways, I love this song. I'm probably going to make it my personal anthem as of late.

Enjoy.

So funky.

Well where to start? These past few weeks I've been pretty stressed to the max. Apparently so stressed that I've given myself random chest pains. (don't worry; they've subsided...mostly) You may be wondering what the cause of this extra stress is and I guess I would have to blame it on work (mostly). I am kind of to the point where how much is too much. I didn't think I would reach this point so quickly, but maybe I am just going through a funk. Yes, that is what it must be. I'm sure I will snap out of it soon.

Otherwise things are trucking along. Sometimes slower than I'd like, but I've learned a long time ago that you can't make people care about you or anything else. They have to feel it on their own.

Another lesson that I recently learned: Doing things for yourself is much more gratifying than doing things because others want or expect you to. You are the one who has to look at yourself in mirror every morning and night and accept the decisions and actions you've made. You have to live with them no matter who influenced you to act on them, so why not start by pleasing yourself first?

So there you go. How grown up of me if I do say so myself.

Suck it, haters.

Half of my heart's got a grip on the situation.

Oh John Mayer, you did it again. Great lyrics=great song in my book.

I often feel like I am only capable of loving with half of my heart.

I think I am permanently broken. But that's another story so enjoy the song.

Slacker.

I admit that I've been a blogging slacker lately i.e. the whole month of August. I'll throw out the excuse that I've been busy and I have been. Between work, work tablings, and the vodka tour wrapping up, I rarely have had free time and when I do I like to cherish it by not blogging apparently.

That all said, I promise to make more of an effort to blog my thoughts as I'm sure you are all in dire need of a dose of them.

So now for a little update. Remember when I blogged about July being the best month of 2010 so far? Well August is also shaping up quite nicely. I really have no complaints in life. Things are finally coming together and I'm just going to sit back and let them happen. I'm learning to let go of things and people who don't want me in their lives and I'm okay with it.

I'm happy.

I'm more than just an option.

My other musical obsession for the month: Drake. I'm not a huge fan of rap by no means, but I really like him. Also he will always be 'Jimmy' from Degrassi: The Next Generation. Loved that show.

So enjoy (even though the video is a bit over dramatic in my opinion).

Slightly unexpected.

July has been my month and dare I say it, the best month of 2010 thus far.

I had such high expectations for 2010 which ultimately got off to a rough start. But the summer months have been quite redeeming and I hope it carries through the rest of the year. I can’t believe it is going to be August already. Time sure flies when you are happy.
