flavor of the week.

As of yesterday.... Justin Timberlake is my new main man. He has my heart.

Anyway, you gotta listen if you haven't yet (& if you have then i know you want to listen again),  i love it & so should you :)
JT-Mirrors:

Enjoy!


The lyrics are way cute, and so is he. Literally on repeat over here. Someone take me to his concert please.

...& yes, i envy Jessica Biel.

Dreaming of JT,
xoxoKaila

The Future Is In Your Hands.

I honestly wish I could be optimistic 24.7; though that is nearly impossible for anyone to do.
But lately, I have been thinking about my future a ton. & it's exciting. Like i'm going to be BARELY 22, with a degree. Who wouldn't be excited about that?! Of course it is also stressful, because I have to figure out what I am going to doing with my degree, but heyyyy---at least I'll have one! :)

I've realized that at 21, I have quite a few years of my prime left to experience and explore all that I want. I don't have children yet (I thank the heavens for this daily) and I am able to move, travel, meet new people, etc. Obviously you need money to do those things, but hopefully i'll be able to find a job that allows me to travel-even if i'm pinching pennies.

But anyway, back to this idea of 'the future'. It's weird, because really our 'future' is taking place each and every day. Yes, of course we can think about future in the whole '5 or 10 years from now' sense. but really our future is happening each and every time we wake up in the morning.

You hope to be a better person in the future? be a better person. now. your future is now.

It's like this idea of bucket lists, oh you want to learn another language? You want to own your own car? You want to go see Niagara Falls? You want to learn how to play an instrument? WHATS STOPPING YOU?! Go out there & be proactive.

Yeah, i understand you cannot just go buy a car or drive off to Canada. but YOU CAN. & if you are determined enough YOU WILL.
I don't mean at 9 p.m. tonight. I mean plan it out, & make it happen.
Pick a long weekend, find a friend that wants to see the Falls and won't bail out on you, and start making those plans.
Want you own car? Get a job. Have a job? Put a portion of each paycheck in a specific place (bank account, piggy bank, etc.) until you have enough for a decent down payment.

You can do what you want to do. SO DO IT.


& i guess this post makes my first sentence false. Want to be optimistic 24.7--- you can be!

Now I just need to take my own advice,

Listen.


I believe that sometimes children know more about life than adults. It's like when you are young you can think about things in a more logical way, but as you grow your mind becomes tainted with  millions of opinions & politics.
We can learn so much of we just sit back and listen to what children have to say.

Quick Thought

I'm so so soooo excited to see what life has in store for me! :)
Walking in the graduation ceremony in less than two months & officially graduating and being done with my undergrad at the beginning of August! It's crazy to think that barely at the age of 22 i'll have a bachelor's degree and off to see what the rest of the world has to offer.

Not sure where I will end up or what I will do, but i'm sure it will quite the experience!! :)

Just must remember to leave the negative behind, and push forward with the positive.

Much love my little readers,

xoxoKaila
