i don't really have much to say at all except that it was a really rough week. in this post i am sending my love out to the zirilli family, especially by best friend mary (a.k.a. PIC) no words can describe what has happened but they know that my (and all of our friends) love is with them every single day. this is a really hard to write about so i'm keeping it discrete for family and friends to understand only. there are 2 things i would like to share that i dedicated to the zirilli family, one is a quote, and one is a song. it's hard to really explain how this song made me feel but i will share a quote from the song that i think is perfect. the song is Fireflies by Owl City:
Fireflies- Owl City
"to ten million fireflies
i'm weird because i hate goodbyes
i got misty eyes as they said farewell
but i'll know where several are
if my dreams get real bizarre
'cause i saved a few and keep them in a jar"
the quote i will share is in italian and it is actually tattooed on my friend steph's back. forza d'amino. it means strength and spirit. i think this is what mary and her family need right now and her loving friends and family are here to support her<3
cherish every day and every one in your life and know that they will love you forever :)
why does life have to get in the way of me blogging?? come on! anyways work was pretty hectic all week. did get to party with some 2011 sports illustrated swimsuit models so thats a plus! i had a lovely 3 day weekend and i just can't wait for this coming weekend to of course just have off again. keeping this post short and sweet because i want to relax for the few hours i have left in this weekend. i will post my song of the day though but i'm going to call it my song of the week since i have been thinking about posting it since last tuesday! it is called Saltwater Room by Owl City. the lyrics portray such a cute love story that of course touched me in a certain way to relate back to my own love story. so please do enjoy:
Saltwater Room- Owl City
"Time together is just never quite enough
When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home "
i just had such an amazing weekend with my man. he is wonderful. we had a little weekend getaway at a lovely local hotel (king bed woop woop!) and had a delicious dinner and lots of champagne and wine :) we did make some "friends" at the hotel bar which was quite entertaining. one couple was just out of their minds. asked a lot of personal questions and were kinda crazy but i mean hey they were cool and entertaining at the same time. then there was another couple that were more on my and dave's level (we had fun talking to them). guy was a marine and girl who was very nice and complimentary towards me which always brightens up my day! and of course dave and i had our alone time to complete the night ;).
today we watched the social network finally and it was such a great movie. Mark Zuckerberg is so inspirational. he just created the biggest social network in the world and it just boggles my mind how he just knows so much about computers and the internet. he inspires me to just start my own business. i would love to just create my own business and make my own money off of my work. i have ideas but i'm not in any place financially right now to just pick up and begin but i hope that one day (soon) i can!
now for my song of the day! figured i would go a little romantic and a little dramatic for this "holiday" weekend. so i am picking a song from one of my favorite artists Christina Aguilera. Her song "Bound to You" is beautiful and the lyrics are amazing and every time i hear this song i get the chills. it is from the movie "Burlesque" which is definitely a great movie if you are a Christina fan because if really takes you into her old fashioned burlesque style that she portrayed in her "Back to Basics" album. so just listen and enjoy. the song is very dramatic and anyone can interpret it in their own way but from my perspective, i see it as a girl who has had it rough in the past with love and finally found a man she ca trust even though she is scared to love. she also knows that this love is true and says that she doesn't want anything to go wrong. she used to be "bound in chains" but is now bound to him but in a positive way as in to never let go of her one true love.
Bound to You- Christina Aguilera
"sweet love, sweet love
trapped in your love
i've opened up, unsure i can trust
my heart and i were buried in dust
free me, free us
you're all i need when i'm holding you tight
if you leave i will suffer tonight
i found a man i can trust
and boy i believe in us
i am terrified to love for the first time
can you see that i'm bound in chains
i finally found my way
i am bound to you"
i hope that was enjoyable for all to hear and i hope everyone has a great valetines day and if you do not have a special guy or girl in your life then tell the people you care about that you love them and make them your special valentine!
GREAT weekend. superbowl party was a great success. so much food and beer. love. and yay for the packers! finally a team that i was rooting for won.
keeping this posting short because i'm very sleepy and want to go to bed!
song of the day: A little random putting lady gaga up but this song caught my attention today!
So Happy I Could Die- Lady Gaga
"happy in the club with a bottle of red wine. stars in out eyes because we're having a good time. so happy i could die. be your best friend because i'll love you forever. up in the clouds we'll be higher than ever. so happy i could die"
just some fun lyrics that got me pumped for the day :)
but before i go i just have to say that my boyfriend is the best listener in the entire world, he always brings me up when i am down. love him for that and everything else that makes him perfecttt.
had such a great time last night with rachel ross. obvi. missed her more than anything. we had a sexy waitress named marlena. she's hot stalk her. anyway. it is FRIDAY. thank the lord. have a super fun weekend ahead. duh. spending the night with my jackies :) boyfrandd the next day. SUPERBOWL party sunday! i'm actually going to attempt to make my mother's all healthy (but tastesl like wonderful non-healthy food) mexican dip. really hope it comes out as good as when she makes it. anyway, train this morning was awful but what else is new? found my song of the day at 7am though! great band, slow song. enjoyyy:
A.W.O.L. - Broadway
"with your voice on the phone, i don't feel so alone
i feel you next to me, breathing in your sleep
"and the next time, i drift off to sleep,
i hope you will be the next thing i see"
slackkingggg. somehow my schedule is out of control lately i can't keep up with myself. currently trying to get through the movie "Pi" by the same director of "Requiem for a Dream" and i'm not really loving it. Requiem was a good movie but this one is just not catching my interest. since i did order it on netflix i am trying to finish it so i can send it back to get my next movie.
as i have informed everyone in a prior post that i am following "The Zoe Report" the infamous email-blasts from Rachel Zoe herself. i completely trust her judgement on fashion except for this one: long denim skirts. thoughts?? i don't think i'm loving that fashion statement too much. perhaps when i start seeing people sporting this reborn look i may start to like it; maybe once it hits the streets of nyc i may be intrigued, but only time can tell of course.
so as i promised yesterday, which i have yet to reveal, is my song of the day. since nothing really moved through me today i'm going to just present this song:
Hey Jude- The Beatles
always a favorite and every time i hear it now i think of my dear friend rachel's wedding. last song played and i think it was perfect.
signing off and happy that i am closer to friday than monday. ciao :)

Savannah- Relient K
"baby, i spent my life wondering, wondering when i'd find you. i searched for all these years and now you're right here. and i need you to know that everything makes sense when you're with me"
