Day 19: Quite Exhausted Today...

As shocking as it is, as I made my way up the stairs and into my bedroom tonight after spending a good couple hours tie-dying a pair of old jeans and other items, I almost forgot that I hadn't blogged yet today! As I am extremely tired and feel as though there isn't anything too profound to say about my life at this point–still undecided about where I will be off to next year, still keeping on and getting by, still trying to grow and succeed, and still very excited for Coachella–I decided to share with you yet another poem/song I have been working on recently. 

It is a work in progress, entitled currently, "I Do". It's a more upbeat piece compared to the other stuff that I usually write. Nothing too extravagant; rhythm and rhyme are the primary basis of the piece. The following are two excerpts from what would be the chorus (I haven't formulated verses yet). 

"... 
I'll say it:
Two
It's just two.
Just two words for you,
I do.
I do, I'd do anything for you.
I'll tell that I'll stand beside you
Kiss your lips, I can't be without you.
Two,
I do.

...
Just say it
Too.
It's just two.
Just two words from you,
I do.
I do, just say you want me too.
Tell me that you'll stand beside me
Kiss my lips, you can't be without me
Too.
I do."


It's a little different from the style I usually write in. I tried to play with rhythm of the piece rather than other stylistic choices; just something new and different. 
Paisley Pants!
Pants: Anthropologie, Corset: American Apparel, Jacket: Forever 21, Shoes: Italy, Tan belt, DIY bow

Today's outfit wasn't my ideal spring-break-is-here-so-I-need-to-look-amazing-before-everyone-leaves-and-forgets-I-dress-awesome outfit. It was too cold to wear any items from my new spring attire. So instead I decided on my favorite paisley pants (my only paisley pants, rather) paring them with a plain white lace corset and denim jacket. I wore a tan belt and tan penny loafers to match. These particular pants are from Anthropologie which, as many know, is a fairly expensive store. However, God or the Fairy Godmother of Clothing has a way of reminding you that if you wait just long enough, no one will want what was once new and in demand and then the stuff you want will be up for grabs! That is how these pants came into my possession. I am thankful for the money spent on these pants because in the end, they were worth it as I have put them to good use wearing them quite a bit during the fall and winter seasons.  

Sorry today's post is shorter than usual. To be honest I am so mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted from this past week that this is the most I could eek out tonight. I promise that tomorrow will be filled with fun new ideas to ponder over! Until then...
