some days i feel like Angelina Jolie

after about 3 months i finally finished my curtains. they look great and completely transform my apartment. yeah, the hem is kinda crooked on the bottom but i'm going to take my mawmaw's advice and switch those with the ones in my bedroom (the bottom hem will be hidden by my bed)!

now if i could just get some picture frames and some of the fantastic pictures i found on etsy.com. i really love that site but i have to be careful with so many beautiful pieces of art and a limited budget.

in other news: i've recently developed an obsession with Bollywood. almost every night i'm watching a new movie. it started with Jodhaa Akbar (AMAZING MOVIE if you haven't seen it, which you probably haven't) and now i'm a hardcore Hrithik Roshan fan. i'm expecting 2 new movies in the mail this week from amazon (used merchandise from amazon, another possible vice).

the weather has turned colder (thank you God). here's hoping the Sweater Weather sticks around for a while.

finally, i also recently sponsored 5 children from World Vision. i'm very excited. they're from all around the world and they are beautiful! i can't wait to get their pictures in the mail and start writing letters to them! if you've never considered sponsoring a child but you want to do some good in the world, please, please consider it. for only 35 dollars a month you could change their lives forever. i can't really explain why but helping them and building a relationship with them makes me feel more alive and joyful than i have in a long time. i dream that one day i might be able to visit all of them. if you want to learn more here is the website:

worldvision.org

my next goal: figure out how to post pictures on here and then actually do it.
