dance champ

dear love,

so i haven't written since the first day i decided to start a blog. i'm struggling with the concept of whether i actually need a specific thing to talk about, or if i should just ramble on about my day and boring things like that. so this post might be one of those rambles.

right now i'm eating some an apple with peanut butter--a new obsession of mine. the typical scene for me after school these days is sitting on the floor with my back to the couch, with a knife, pb, apple, and a plate, listening to some sweet tunes like fleet foxes, bon iver, or amos lee. so that's the exact position i'm in right now too.

carolyn and i have made up a word. that is another exciting part of my week. also, she brought back her typewriter and i can finally get out feelings with real vigor via the typewriter.

this weekend has been great. friday night, a big group of us went to heber to celebrate the day before valentine's. and...the most exciting part for me was that I WON THE DANCE COMPETITION. yeah that's right. i hate to brag, but it was one of my proudest moments, haha. we played "express yourself" and then the three finalists had a little dance off. good times!

and then valentine's day came around. i had big plans to be someone's secret admirer but i didn't have someone to be that for. so i thought of someone i could potentially be a secret admirer for, but when the time came, i was no longer in the mood. so i made a cake for jesse who protected us from the mountain lions in heber, and wrote him a special note on the typewriter (purely platonic). so that satisfied by need to love on valentine's. then we had some "men" over for dinner, talked a bit, and then had the REAL party after they left with just carolyn and i. we turned all the lights off and had a dance party, and only she and i were invited. there was a wide range of music too... all played on the record player i might add. we had top gun, billy joel, and even some gregorian chant. then we turned on hitch and i was out (typical) by the time albert kissed hitch.

love love love. all you need is love.
