Happy Wednesday dolls! Fashion got some play yesterday…but my heart and mind have missed you all too…tutorials coming…but I love this…seen here, here, and here. (If I’ve missed you, lemme know!) So I’m playing along…
I Can’t…
Ride shotgun and not be the D.J.
Go a day without talking to my Mom.
Sing in front of an audience
Pretend things are ok if they clearly aren’t
Leave Target without spending $100. EVERY TIME.
But I Can..
Throw witty, sarcastic banter back and forth for hours
Sing really well, so it’s a shame about the audience thing
Be counted on. I will always be there for my girls. And boys.
Tie a cherry stem in a knot with my tongue. Just sayin.
I Won’t…
Drive with my knee going 90 on the freeway while texting/twittering/emailing anymore
Forget how far I’ve come
Leave the house without concealer and mascara on
Give up on those I care about
Dance down the aisle at my wedding to P.Y.T
Always miss Anonymous and feel guilty about that situation
Try to see the good in others first
Keep my heart open to new possibilities and find love again
Fly across the country to meet a bloggy friend turned best friend-the Serena to my Blair, my hair envy…and we make the same sassy faces in pics too. Expect video blogs…
I Shouldn’t…
Eat so many damn peanut M&M’s. Are they laced with crack, I mean really…
Be so quick to shut people out of my life
Play the “how far can I go” game when my car’s gas light comes on
Guzzle an entire bottle of wine while getting ready for a date
But I Should…
Check my voicemail. I NEVER do
Finally volunteer at an animal shelter
Audition for American Idol
Go see my grandfather. Immediately. Or at least call him. Doing now…
Seriously take up surfing, but again…be serious about it!

Sometimes you just need to write about what you feel, whenever you feel it.
That's so great that a bloggy friend turned into a best friend – how amazing is the bloggy world hun!?!
Love ya girl and I'm still waitin' for your arrival info
XOXO
I so feel you with the voicemail. I hate checking it because it takes too long.

i used to volunteer at an animal shelter years ago, and although at times it was heartbreaking, it was really worth it…and i wish i had the time to do it still, i always think about it.
Hey Liz. Cool post. I really enjoyed reading it. Great photos. I really loved the one of Leighton and Blake. Hope you will have a great day. Take care. Cheers!

Happy Wednesday love ♥
You are just the cutest thing ever! I love that you're Blair- I'm totally a Blair too! Also, this, "Work the room at a party or a bar like no other!" I believe.
I love your list!
the perfect post for my wednesday. You've seriously inspired me to do a similar post–I love youuuuuuu!!!!!!!
awwww i love your list…this especially…
"leave the house without concealer and mascara on"
…soo me.
and this too..
"throw witty, sarcastic banter back and forth for hours"
oh and this one, i shouldn't do either…
"let my fiesty latina anger get the best of me and say things I regret later"
it's in our blood though. lol.
when are you flying to see miss oofa? i must hear alllll about it!!!
We should have a sarcastic face off with each other, I'd kick your ass! But in a nice way.
Loved your list, you rock big time.
You know, I really like this post. I always adore things about hair and makeup, I mean… c'mon. I am a girl lol but I really like this post because I feel like I know a whole lot more about you! [Sounds creepy but that's not EVEN how i mean it lol] Great post
Hey honey, great post!
So ummmm about that singing in front of an audience thing: put your $ where your mouth is! I say, karaoke! I DO live pretty close, after all….
I spend $100 at Target too! But everything is soo cute and cheap! Thanks for not twittering on the freeway anymore
xo! Ash
PS. My white top is from Down East Basics (www.downeastbasics.com) and it's called Belle of the Ball
"Ride shotgun and not be the D.J."
DUH. That is like, the first rule of road-tripping!
xoxo
Awww, I love this! And I am totally with you on the peanut m&ms. I don't keep them in my office anymore, I think it was starting to take a toll on my work habits!
I love this list, babe! You are such a sweetheart – and very talented! LOL, I once tried the cherry thing…I nearly swallowed my tongue.
You MUST go on American Idol – dying to hear you sing now, plus you know we'd all vote for you!!! xx
love the post!
you're beautiful inside and out. never give up on your dreams
My mom so got upset with me the other day about my gas light lol. She goes "Heather you're 24! Learn to fill up BEFORE the light comes on…how long has it been on?".."day and half"…she about had a heart attack!! oops!!
I wanna take up surfing!! Only bc I watched Blue Crush on TV…I'm sure that idea will fade soon!
JILLIAN IS RETARDED!!!! I 'm not even gonna go there! I just loved Reid…I think Kip should have left his shirt off when going to the final rose ceremony, no?
This is a great post! I might steal your idea! Ha!
Never stop chasing your dreams and never put those peanut m&ms down! They ARE filled with crack.
I left you something small and home made xoxo
I think Andy would like it if you danced down the aisle to him! Is your list of talents limitless? You can sing AND tie a knot with a cherry stem? I knew you were my girl crush for a reason. Ah ha
i love this post! and ummm.. i wont drive with my knee period.. but thats cus i'm too short and i can't do it comfortably. hahaha! ;P
I love peanut butter M & M's. I think they definitely have some crack in there.
I tried to volunteer at our animal shelter and the training program was ridiculous. I gave up on it. I work 40 hours a week. I just wanted to spend 1-2 hours a week in there not be trained fo 20 hours on how to walk/bathe/carry a freaking dog. I already know how to do all that!!!
i'mm in the m&m cult as well. I think I may use this one day.
Lurve this post! My fave: "I will…Try to see the good in others first."
Ooh, I like this post… I might do one of my own here soon
…
And I play the same "how long can I go??" game with my car… I know it's bad, but I'm broke yo, and a girl has priorities – I also need new root volumizer, self-tanning lotion and shower gel. C'mon now, priorities – lol!!
I never check my voicemail either. Loved the post! It seemed therapeutic….maybe I will make a list later, too:)
oh I loved your little list! Who ever goes in to Target NOT leaving with a bunch of stuff?! That store is addicting, you never realize just how much you spend till your taking out your credit card – heck sometimes I don't even listen to what the total was ad just swipe my card.
Great list!
I can't…keep from singing a song if I love it, no matter where I am.
I can…stop if you get annoyed with my public singing.
I won't…stop being myself no matter how weird you tell me I am.
I will…nevr forget the people who make my day, week, life just a little bit brighter(like you!)
I shouldn't…go a whole night without sleep just to finish writing something, telling myself 'Coffee will put me right in the morning' the entire time.
I should…check and return my emails, make time for people and take the stress level down to a 3.
=)
omg…my lists would be so loooong….
I heart you. I can't wait to meet. and, I met your fabulous sister online yesterday when she graced me with her presence on my blog. wee! two of you!!
Hey sweetie,
thanks so much for your lovely comment!!
I love your latest posting – so huge! Had to smile about so many things you've said. Same with me regarding checking my voicemail
So, let's breathe and start:
I can't….. stop shopping, even if it would be the right thing to do
I can…. write pretty well, just sitting on two books right now
I won't…. do a same mistake twice
I will…. always think about and always love my sister who passed away one year ago
I shouldn't… be sooooo deeply sad that she has left
I should… be happy and thankful for all the good things and people in my life (I am!)
Have a great day, dear!
xoxoxo, Sofie
oh man, so true to differentiate the woulds, shoulds, needs, and wants. i need to do that!
i think this might be your best post EVAH!!! i love it! you are too fab for words! now don't you blush — it is true!
nice i love this post!
This was fun! I did it, too, after I saw it on Living Life to the Pinkest.
i love you!!!!! …just the way you are:) even though we are having a terrible time connecting! PLUS, you totally need to visit your gpa…just not this weekend when I'm gone!!!
i miss you so…need to see eachother soon! i'm free next weekend! xo
Love this! So cute.
And a little birdie (cough, YOU, cough cough!) told me that your life is a bit calmer now.
LET. US. PLAY.
*shoving my empty bag of peanut M&Ms under my purse*
Oh- how'd you know I was obsessed with them right now???
Lovely list. Sometimes it's the simple truths that you've pointed out here that just really resonate with your readers.
Fabulous post and pics, darling! You are so creative! This would be a really fun tag…
Love that you are going to see your grandfather
xoxox,
CC
i loved the pictures!
so cute chihuahueño doggy!
xx
http://www.inspirations.co.nr
awww fantastic list!! i loved it! and i know what you mean about the latina anger. that's me all the time, but at least my husband knows what to expect! hope you're having a way awesome day! and you should totally audition for AI!! later love!
I could say this a million times, but I gotta tell you that you are so cute. I love your spirit and personality and it really shines through on your blogs!!
I love M&Ms too, but peanut butter ones are my choice of poison!! It almosts makes me want to go to the store… I hope you have a wonderful day and the ball game was fun. Of course me being a girl, I don't really know much about it, but I was filled with curiousity and asked tons of questions enough to irritate my huney!! LOL
SO with you on the voicemail. It's so bad that I often wonder why I have it if I'm never going to check it… or if I only bother when I have 10+ messages, which of course is a deterrent to checking at all.
love the list!! tie a cherry stem into a knot with your tongue?! that is crazy! i think i fell even more in love with you…
missed you too, love!!!
Omg, hello, are we twins?! So, so many things I can relate to you on, I don't even know where to begin!
I'm always DJ when I ride shotgun…but I think I'm awful at it because I never usually listen to a song in its entirety.
I love each and every things in your "I will" category. And I laughed out loud with the "how far can I go" game – I do the SAME thing with my car…and there's nothing wrong about guzzling a bottle of wine before a date…it calms the nerves. (Okay, it might be wrong, but at least it helps you loosen up, right?!).
All these pictures are just fabulous – I just love you and think you're wonderfulllll. I'm going to have to answer all these things eventually….it's such a fun non-tag
These were absolutely sooo much fun to read!!! You are so funny! Thanks for sharing!!!
clothedmuch.blogspot.com
You DO have a wonderful sense of humor!
Now my temper…… yikes!
What, no mention of your love for zombies?
love your list
i also drive with my knee whilst speeding on the freeway. bad bad bad. i won't text at the same time. but i will text, sometimes. bad bad bad bad. thanks for the reminder that i shouldn't do it anymore haha
such a fabulous fabulous post! I heart it and everything about you!
have a great night! kiss kiss!
Fabulous list darling!
I'm seriously dying to find a pair of black jeans to cut up like the first picture. A bit late on the Erin Wasson-made-famous-Topshop-skinnies, but fashionably late is more, well, fashionable, non? (:
bisous,
La C.
Cute! I'm going to have to fill this out tomorrow.
I always drop quite a few at Target. I wish there was one that was closer to where I live.
I love that you are going to dance down the aisle to PYT. I guess you've seen that video on youtube where the wedding party dances down the aisle to chris brown's "forever." It's so cute!
I won't leave the house without concealer and mascara either…lol.
Hehe, I play the how far I can go game all the time…and have suffered the consequences a couple of times.
Hope you are having a great week!!!!
PS- don't give up on your dreams!
love this! i need to call my grandparents too… thanks for the reminder!
( and i love the pyt dance idea)
The dancing down the isle to PYT is classic. Also, I think it is great you talk to your mom everyday. Do you talk to your twin everyday? I was totally like you when I went out on dates…for some reason I would always have drinks with my buddies before hand and then always show up lit like a firework.
What about me? Well:
]
*I can't: stop making jokes.! lol.
*But i can: steal smiles, Even under the rain and dresses of paper.!
*i won't: to change my obsession with cleanliness. [some people said i'm crazy
*I will: i will buy a house at the head of sea. HOPE! (i wanna Dance down the aisle at my wedding to P.Y.T, too doll!!)
*I shouldn't: to say what i think some times…
*but i should: to drink milk. i need calcium! (the problem? : i hate the milk!)
Oh Doll, i wrote too much! hahaa.
I'm fine, thanks for asking. just right now i am painting a picture, about boats for my bedroom.
How are you?? .
What an inspiring post! I guess I should do an I won't… drink an entire bottle of wine on a week night (so often)…
Dude, voicemail is sooo 2005. I never check it either.
Can't wait for your vlogs!
such a fun post! i love it!
This post was awesome! Love all the photos you posted in relation to your writing. Which brings us to your writing…it is so refreshing to read things like this every now and then on a blog that is mostly for fashion and makeup. That's one of the reasons we love reading your blog because you give us so much more than just clothes and how to paint our face…you make us think and inspire us…xoxo
Wonderful post and you go for having so many dreams and aspirations!! Peanut MMs are yum, I want them right now!
i love this post. you are such an honest and amazing chick! xoxo
good luck on that date!
This post made me smile! I miss you Banana!
Strangest thing happened. I read this the day you wrote it and then never commented.
Why?
Because I'm strange and forgetful.
I love that you did this!
I love that you gave me some love!
I love this "Throw witty, sarcastic banter back and forth for hours".
I love it.
