::Early Riser::

I woke up this morning at 6 am sharp.
Which is really unusual for me, I like a good 10 hours of beauty sleep.
However I couldnt fall back asleep, so after tossing for about 45 mins I decided to get my ass out of bed.
I have a lot to do this am before heading out to work.

I decide to walk to starbucks for a little pick me up.
As I am strolling down Montana Ave, I am over come with complete peace and happiness.
I took the time to actually look at my surroundings and appreciate them.
These past months have been so stressful and I have been so focused on the bad things in life I have neglected to see any of the good.

I have come to realize in these weeks maybe months a few things;

-There are always going to be nasty people in your life, the challenge is to not stoop to their level.
-Life isnt perfect, and something will always go wrong.
-Love, true life long love, will over come any obstacle.
-I need to take time to enjoy the simple pleasures in life. Like cool morning walks to starbucks, cuddling with my boyfriend, and the feel of my chihuahua licking me a 5 am. For these are the things that get your through the bad times.
-Take pictures of the bad days, not just the good. Because then and only then do you see your true character.
-Most important.

Be the change you want to see in the world.
-Gandhi

::A Night Out In H-Wood::

While out in H-Wood last night to see Bullets and Octane, I dropped my make-up bag into a drain gutter.How one might ask, simple. It was on my lap because I was going to fix my make up. When I thought it was a good idea to stop at a liquor store and get some vodka since the show was like 2 hours away.I open the door and see the drain, almost thinking I should ask Austin to pull forward so my stiletto wouldnt get stuck. I believe I can just make do. As I get out I see my precious gold clutch filled with expensive make up fall to the ground. No big deal its just broken. No wait, I am not that lucky.It tumbles into the rain gutter.After I freak out, trying not to cry bc I have NO make-up to fix my face if I do. Austin, being the smart and amazing boyfriend he is gets a flash light to see if we can get it out.After trying to grab it, and trying to wave down a police officer. I mean come on, it is an emergency!Austin believes he saw trash grabbers at Urban Outfitters, so we head towards Melrose.Before we get there I see Petco. Some what thinking rationally now, I say I think a pooper scooper may get the job done.We buy a $20 pooper scooper and head back to the rain gutter.Austin forbids me to get out of the car so I stay and take pictures and chat on bbm.Austin ends up saving the day!He rescues my make up from the drain gutter of Hollywood.After we return the $20 pooper scooper, its time to drink and see Bullets and Octane.Keep in mind this story’s greatness is amplified bc I had my boyfriend laying on the sidewalk on the corner of Sunset and Doheny on a Saturday night!Enjoy the piccys my friends!

::First Impressions Arent Always Right::

Okay so there is this little jewelry shop down the block from my house on Montana called, Moondance Jewelry.It appears to be this cute shop out of the hustle and bustle of our busy world.Austin had bought me a few things from there and I loved them.However when I atempt to purchase a gift for Austin the whole abeyance is different.The women working pay no attention to me the whole 30 minutes I am walking through the store shopping.I had half the mind not to buy anything from them, until I found the perfect gift.So I buy it, keep in mind this place isnt really cheap.I take it home and give it to Austin about a week later.It turns out the chain for the necklace is too short, but he loves the pendent.I have an older gold chain that I never wear because I dont like gold.At any rate I atempt to take the pendent off the chain and the chain breaks, with part of the chain caught in the pendent.I was like oh great but whatever I will take it back and see if they can help me.So this moring Austin and I walk over there.I say, “I bought this a week ago and it hasnt been worn. I atempted to take it off the chain and it broke.”They lady has the nerve to say, “Well this isnt our fault YOU broke it.”I said, “Well I know, but do you have a tool to get the broken piece out of the pendent so I can put it on another chain.”She says, “NO, but the jewelry store 2 doors down can help you.”WTF!Its not like I was asking for a new chain. I told the dumb bitch I broke it. I just didnt want to play jewelry repair lady and fix it myself.Long story short I come home and dig out the hand tools my dad gave me when I moved out and got the broken piece out of the pendent.Ausitn loves his gift.However I NEVER plan on shopping at Moondace Jewelry again.I felt they were rude and completely unhelpful for the second time in a row.If I am paying you money you need to kiss my ass.Its all about costumer service, unless I am an asshole to you.
