Macnerd.

During February 4th thru the 9th I will be sitting on my front porch awaiting the arrival of some handsome fella dressed in brown. That's right, I'll be waitin' on UPS. There's a good chance I'm one of the dorkiest girls around, but I am a huge Apple nerd. 

It started with the iPod. Five years ago, to be exact- I got my first iPod for Christmas. It was love at first sight. I had no idea what it was or what it was good for, but I sure did love it. I remember it vividly- I didn't know how to use it but eventually I imported a "best of" album by Jennifer Knapp. Oh, those were the days. (Believe me, my taste in music has grown... a lot) 

One to two years later I discovered the beauty of the Mac. My parents generously decided to buy me a MacBook Pro. Once again it was love at first sight. To this day I have yet to experience the first problem with my MacBook. 

Then here comes the oh-so chic iPhone 3GB. Though it's had a few glitches here and there, I love it dearly. 

This brings us to todays big news. I just ordered a 24" iMac and I am ecstatic. Completely ecstatic. The last time I had a desktop computer I was probably 10 years old and it was a Gateway (need I say more?) I'm stoked and I can't wait to see that fella in brown show up at my doorstep. It'll be Christmas morning all over again.

I'm learning to want you. I'm learning to love you. I'm learning to care for you. I'm learning to remember you. 

One day I hope to post a blog saying that I've finally fully grasped the concept of this wonderful woman's words. To exist completely selflessly. To live on 10% and give you the 90. To love you more than I love myself. I'm not there. I want this desperately. I'm learning, I'm learning, I'm learning to love and to be love. 

peace,friends.

Oh Hello 2009, How Are You?

Changes to be made throughout the course of this new year:

Photo blogging with my new amazing D80. It's neat. 

Jesus help me find an amazing job with amazing people!

College? Jesus school? JHOP, maybe? Who knows... Certainly not I.

Maybe I''ll work on not being so quick to judge and so easily angered.  (But believe me, the girl that was checking me out today in Target definitely could have used an attitude adjustment.)

*sigh* I'll start on that one tomorrow... 

I believe it's time to dust off my bicycle. The weathers nice... 

*I'm currently favoring Tilly and The Wall as far as tunes go.

Reading Skinny B***h. (It's actually a very interesting/informative read if you don't mind the vulgar language. There's a lot we don't know about the food we consume)

The art project I'm currently working on is a mosaic collage.. I'm so excited to see how this one is going to turn out. Pictures will be up as soon as it's finished. 

And last but certainly not least... I've recently started sewing! 

...So far this new hobby of mine isn't my cup of tea, but I love it!
