– Lyrical Lies // Cute Is What We Aim For
Summer Youth
Sometimes, deep in the night, my unconscious plays tricks on my mind. I can almost smell the green grass below my racing feet, the stars spin round and round overhead as the same soundtrack plays in the background, and somehow I can still hear the ocean waves. So young and free. So happy and naive we were.
I’ve always been obsessed with candles on water for some reason. The combination makes me very calm and happy.

Before you get married you should ask yourself, have I climbed a mountain, seen the light, fulfilled six of my childhood dreams, learned to dig a few grownups, and made my mark? And man, that takes years. If you get married too soon you miss out. Time winds one way - Forward. After you get married there’s a lot of other things you’ve got to do. So now, be cool, just love.

Bob Dylan (via handcraftedinvirginia) my thoughts exactly (via samanthahuey)
My thoughts exactly. If you cannot learn to love yourself and be content with your success in life, how can you learn to love your children (if you want children) unselfishly. I believe a lot of problems in this world often stems from bad parenting. I’m not taking any chances. I want to live my 20s to the fullest, be happy, content, and balanced before I even think about starting a family. My readiness will Not be dictated by my female anatomy. If my eggs expire before I’m ready, then maybe I was meant to adopt. Every child should be a product of love and deserves to be loved. No child should be the target of an immature parent’s regrets, dissatisfaction with life, or a puppet to live through vicariously.

Kotoba Brand & Alexandra Sarabia & My Girls Who DO IT ALL
So Proud of my Miss Alexandra Sarabia taking a big step into the fashion world! She is going to really conquer one day. Alex interns for this newly born company that’s small but packs a lot of potential. There’s a huge chunk of her in this brand.
I also really love this brand for its technology and style. Great for girls who do it all and designed for on the go. Most importantly, it features this awesome wholegarment technology resulting in greener, softer, and awesome-r creations. loving it. <3
Yes, I would rather be a role model than a fashion model. But I am aiming to be both.

Girls who do it all. =]
It’s surprising how little we give sometimes in our daily lives. I was at Starbucks and a woman and I went to grab our drinks at the same time. The cup holders were next to me so automatically, I handed one to her first and then got one for myself. She just stopped and looked at me with huge surprise and said a TY. She made me stop too and pat myself on the back. I was proud of myself for that one, unconscious moment. But her reaction really shows how sad the world has become where a simple passing of an item can extract such surprise. We all need more of these moments.

What Inspires Me?
Traveling is my inspiration. I’ve been to at least 23 countries. It’s the colors, the smells, the music, the people, the differences that are the similarities that enrich my imagination. All of tangible and intangible work together to reignite my creativity and passion. It makes me want to work again. I’m just as excited about the end of the journey as i was for the beginning. I come home bringing all my materials ready for creation. Whether it be a blog entry, a compilation of pictures, fashion, an arts and crafts project, or something to re-create my experience to the loved ones. I want to share the ways a culture and the people opened up my perspectives, widened my views, and increased my understanding.

Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves you, grows you, or makes you happy.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior moves. Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you. Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight. Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten. Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough. Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.

Some may say I go too far or out of my way and find it funny. I say I have peace with myself and what I do. But i’ll admit, sometimes, it really does suck. At least my conscience is clean and I know I did my part. Lord, give me strength every single day.

“Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.” Pope Paul VI
