a pretty average weekend, as weekends go, and im not entirely sure why that is. highlight? peppermint tea drinking yesterday with the man. lowlight,a tie between the movie we saw afterwards and how im feeling at the moment.

[full moon lastnight]

for the past hour i have been obsessively stalking the wedding link that the man gave me and i have decided that i will be wearing these shoes to my wedding. the end.

[happy sundaytime]

the breakfast club

John: Hey, how come Andrew gets to get up? If he gets up, we'll all get up, it'll be anarchy!

John Bender: Does Barry Manilow know that you raid his wardrobe?

John Bender: Brian, this is a very nutritious lunch. All the food groups are represented. Did your mom marry Mr. Rogers?
Brian Johnson: Uh, no. Mr. Johnson.

Andrew Clark: You don't have any goals.
John Bender: Oh but I do.
Andrew Clark: Yeah?
John Bender: I wanna be just like you. I figure all I need, is a lobotomy and some tights.
Brian Johnson: You wear tights?
Andrew Clark: No I don't wear tights. I wear the required uniform.
Brian Johnson: Tights.
Andrew Clark: Shut up.

Richard Vernon: What if your home... what if your family... what if your *dope* was on fire?
John Bender: Impossible, sir. It's in Johnson's underwear

John Bender: What's in there?
Claire Standish: Guess? Where's your lunch?
John Bender: You're wearing it.
Claire Standish: You're nauseating.
[and thats why its the best movie in the world]

its just another monday

goodevening dear blog readers
i havent forgotten is cupcake monday [how good does this cupcake look?]

however, most importantly today i started reading a book [to give my brain a break after vanity fair] called the Shoe Queen. yes indeed it does seem like the book was written for me. It is essentially about one womans quest for the perfect pair of shoes, and its set in Paris which makes it even more beautiful and decadent than before. ah. lovely

Today I also...
listened to: mozart
bought: 2010 soccer gear at half price
ate: a spur burger with that yummy white sauce
loved: sleeping in late
college tomorrow. fan.tastic.

night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"

[i just watched glee and this is my new favourite song*]

Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"
Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me

Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longin’ to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Stars shining up above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"
Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me

Yes, dream a little dream of me

Lets get lost

So, i saw Eclipse. twice, and it wasnt that bad- maybe i still have to grow out of my teeny bopper phase, but its really not as lame as most people are making it out to be-

Touch me I'm cold, unable to control
Touch me I'm golden and wild as the wind blows
And tumbling tumbling, don't go fascination
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost

Let me come closer, I'm not your shadow
With our eyes shielding from the oncoming counts
It's not hard for us to say what we should not

If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
If just for tonight darling, let's get lost
[anyway, the movie brought this song and I together, actually the whole soundtrack is amazing- in my humble un-musical opinion-]

and now I am off to venture into the unknown land that is Paarl to work at a church there*

see you in a week
love always, sarahjane

Fashion fades, style is eternal.

yesterday i bought THE most wonderful shoes ever. they are floral brogue-type shoes with leather toe-caps. absolutely beautiful :) they put the rest of my shoes to shame.

"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening." -Coco Chanel

[i hope you liked my food quotes]

lovely stories

[i found these 2 beautiful quotes on shower gel bottles. honestly, i would buy the shower gel just for the quotes]

The mint amused her... its sweet scent tickled her nose, taking her thoughts to garden where lilac hens in sparkling wellingtons picnicked in the moonlight.

"Angel" said the wise man, "is my guardian of the fluffiest lemony cake. Frosted soft pink marshmallow and sometimes made of snow with a serving of smooth creamy vanilla. Goodness and purity are her best friends and as she spreads her fairy wings, Strawberries and Candy fall from the sky."

hope the rest of your day is sparkling*
