freckles.
I have so many of them but they’re dead-set on being the weird kind.
They aren’t the cute/in-your-face/smattering across the nose kind of freckles that make people go “aww” & want to pinch my cheeks. They’re the kind that almost blend in with my skin. So much so that they look like open pores instead of freckles.
[sigh]
such is life.

writing.
i need to start writing my thoughts and feelings down again… because even if no one cares it helps me to connect with myself — to develop some sort of anchor that keeps me grounded/attached to who i am and what i will/can be.

odelia-jay:
Like lots of other women, I often sit and look in the mirror for long time. I don’t do it to be narcissistic, I do it because I’m not always sure what to make of what I see. I count my freckles, study the way my eyebrows curve and look at the asymmetrical...

odelia|JAY;: actors. →
I usually don’t reblog my own stuff but this is pretty accurate and I’m feeling these words — words i wrote months ago — at this very moment.

odelia-jay:
You know what actors have taught me after being a movie fan for so long?
That humans are capable of doing anything.
Don’t put shit past them.
Never underestimate them.
you’re probably saying, “Oh, o.JAY, I think you’re really...

the next leg of my journey.
So the school I think I want I’m supposed to attend after the Corps called me & i’m trying to calm myself down because I have to get there one step year at a time. Happiness can’t be rushed. If it is meant to be it will be be.

just because a woman is a virgin doesn't mean that...
or that she doesn’t feign for an intimate relationship with a man [that she can trust, love, and share her body with].
it simply means that she’s never had sex.
point blank. end of discussion.
damn!

my brain.
is officially fried. I’ve been sitting here researching universities all day.
Tuition, Location, Scholarships, Grants, Pros, Cons…
thinking about and preparing for the future is time-consuming, exhilarating and terrifying all at the same time.

help.
I’m updating my itunes and I realized that, now more than ever, I don’t really listen to the radio or watch much TV. Case in point: I’m kind of behind on all the new ish.
I also realized that I don’t have some of the older joints I like to vibe to on it either. I was wondering if you all could help me give me iPod a makeover.
fyi: I basically listen to everything but I...
