These photos were taken in the beautiful Helen, Georgia. Loooove that place.
I can't believe today is September 11, and that it's been 9 years since it happened. Holy cow, time flies. My condolences to everyone who was affected by such a horrendous and pointless tragedy!!!
I miss my boy so much, long distance sucks... I'll dream of you and count the days baby. ♥
It's still warm here in Atlanta, but early mornings and late nights are definitely a lot cooler, I'm excited to begin stocking up on lots of new cardigans, I live for a good cardigan and I think I really want a pair of glasses, yeah, I really want some, perhaps I should schedule an appointment here soon, just some regular square, black rimmed glasses will do.
I have a HUGE test on Tuesday so I've locked myself at home with Gossip Girl Season 1 and 2 on DVD, lots of cranberry juice, my puppy, and some ice cream, hopefully all of this studying will pay of. Right now this test is the definite elephant in the room and I'm ready to be done with it. For sure. Speaking of which, who else is so stoked for the new season of Gossip Girl starting Monday? I AM!!!!
Anyways, back to the books I go.

Busy hardly even begins to cover it. My lazy summer days have quickly transformed to 5:45 am alarms, fighting morning rush hour traffic, babbling children or babbling college kids days. Eeeek. I've hardly any time to myself and when I do, it's spent with my eyes closed under mounds of sheets and people wonder why I don't do much on the weekends, hell I'm run down, I'm tired, I just want to sleep. Haha.
School has been cool so far, I'm just kind of over it for the moment, lol, I love school and hate school all at the same time. My kind of learning doesn't happen in a classroom reading out of a book or listening to a lecture or copying down notes from a Powerpoint Presentation.
Here's some advice: Never fall in love with the person someone has the potential to be...dangerous territory.
And I saw you there, on the corner of heartbreak and the middle of nowhere. Which is, by the way, where we all run to when there’s nothing to come home to. We began to call it our secret place, where we had a blanket that only took up a small amount of space in a place where the land seemed to race for miles and there we were caught between the sunshine and pensive smiles. And we were small, so incredibly little in comparison to this vast expanse of reward and trouble, love was made there, no it wasn’t groundbreaking, but it was earth-shatteringly subtle.

School starts TOMORROW!!! Au revoir été (Goodbye summer)!!! I'm so glad I spent the last few days of my summer at my Grandma's house, hanging out with my boy, Mom, and Aunt was just perfect. So incredibly relaxing, hopefully next summer can live up to how amazing this one has been.
I love my Grandma's house, I always manage to get some good pictures while I'm there and I took all of these in one day, by myself, except for one picture. Thank God for self-timer!! Haha.
My Grandma's house is out basically in the middle of nowhere where clothes are still placed on a clothesline outside to dry, deer run through the yard, dirt roads, pop-up thunderstorms that produce beautiful rainbows, and people that wave even if they have no idea who the heck you are. It's such a nice getaway, hardly any cell phone service, no internet, and no cable. All you really need in life are good people, good food, and good books.
I'm expecting my carefree summer attitude to be gone after this week, let the manic studying begin. I'm taking 5 classes this semester and working soooo finding free time will be hard, but somehow I manage to do it every semester. Keeps life interesting, no?
Love is such a beautiful thing, it really is. I think it's special when it blind-sides you and catches you by surprise. My boy adds so much happiness to my life, it's funny how you full you may think your life is and then you meet someone who completely rounds it out. I'm so thankful for it, it's so precious to me, it's a memory that I'll hold onto forever and I have absorbed the most beautiful aspects of life everyday since this whole journey began. I wish this wonderful feeling that I have right now on everyone.
