bidding adieu

hey there everyone! TGIF. hoping everyone has a lovely, scrumptious weekend ahead of them. i've decided to take a break from bee lux...i'm losing some steam and haven't felt those most literary lately. but! you can still follow me here, if you are at all interested in some tid bits, ramblings, and straight up rad photos.

buckets of love! xo,

and another thing...

i ordered a new swimsuit from VS. an adorable neon coral with black polka dots. so stoked. and then, i got it in the mail. and...eh? pretty cute on. but i was somewhat dismayed. then the boy came over and could tell from my lackluster expression that i was less than pleased. so he proceeds: "are you disappointed because Miranda Kerr didn't come with the swimsuit too?"....

EXACTLY!

a random thought...

"This morning I was initiated into the unofficial “Fight Club” by my boxing instructor. He gave me this mini Everlast keychain! 6:30am may be a little early for upper cuts, but it’s such a great way to channel your inner Balboa – dispatch any angst you might have towards an ex-lover, high school mean girl, 57 inches of Winter snow-to-date…you know, the usual."

i want to take up boxing. not the kind where i will actually have to hit someone, but really just for the vigorous workout, the channeling of my inner energy (*cough* rage), or hey, maybe i want to be mark wahlberg from the fighter? so what's it to ya!? either way, i thought this post was great inspiration that any girly girl can come face to face with her inner Rocky. Your thoughts?
