Moments Like These


Hello there.

The sky was beautiful tonight.

I dragged myself to my camera and then climbed onto the trampoline for some sick pictures of that sick AZ sky.

And by dragged myself I mean I am quite literally sick and was just layin there on my couch when I saw the sunset. Anddddd I just naturally had to snap some pics.

On a completely different note, I love those moments when, even for just a split second, teenagerhood is exactly what I imagined it to be. Because while it's still fun & hectic & crazy, it's obvi not High School Musical or anything I made it out to be. But every so often, in the midst of what it usually is, it'll be just what I thought it would be. And that makes me overjoyed.

When I was little, I used to think it was so weird that I would be a "teenager" someday. They seemed so old and big. I used to try to imagine what I would look like during high school and now here I am - in high school and big and a teenager.

Have I ever mentioned that the day before my first day of freshman year I listened to Taylor Swift's Fifteen and cried because that song always made me look forward to being in high school and boom. There I was, preparing to "take a deep breath and walk through the doors." It was quite a lot to take in.

I'm sentimental, ok?

Also I made this playlist a few days ago and it's my FAVORITE. It has lots of Sam Smith songs (that man sings straight to my heart), some other jazzy jams, and 2000s rock. It's fabulous.

And now that this post has been everywhere and back, I will end it.

XOXO Sarah

New Year



Some of my Twenty Fifteen New Year resolutions include:

//keep a journal
//meet new people & find new places
//work out
//go on adventures
//put myself out there
//start saving for college (whattttttt)
//learn to start & keep a conversation
//give more
//bucketlist (used as a verb) as much as possible

It snowed last night. IN MESA ARIZONA. That doesn't happen. And today we all woke up to the beautiful view of snow on the Superstition Mountains. What a way to start Twenty Fifteen.

Happy New Year! Make it the best one yet.

XOXO Sarah

PS Waffle parties at 1AM are strongly recommended as they are extremely fun.
