On a routine trip to Target today I found a little cut that would be good for my future makeshift photoshoots. So after purchasing my makeup remover and deodorant, I took a few quick shots to test so excuse the hair. This wasn't planned in the least. Speaking of hair, I think mine is getting lighter and I love it. I want it lighter though but naturally. I saw AndreasChoice's vid on how to lighten hair naturally so I'm gonna come up with my own recipe using honey as well but I'm going to add lemon. There's a gorgeous lemon tree outside my bathroom window so I'm gonna have to hit that tree up and steal some fruit from it. Although, I'm not sure if it's a lemon or grapefruit tree. I know that sounds dumb but some of the alleged "lemons" are HUGE like the size of grapefruits and some are normal size but they're all yellow. I shall find out this week. I also need to get a friend to pick them for me being that I've never climbed a tree in my life. Can you imagine me climbing a tree? Me neither.
By the way, I literally say this every day but I LOVE summer! I know summer began a few weeks ago but in my eyes, summer doesn't really begin until July. I know it can get hot and uncomfortable but I live in California so summer is perfect! Every day, I wake up to the sun beaming through the cracks in my blinds, the heat waking me up too early. But it gives me a chance to see and enjoy mornings on my days off during which I'd usually sleep in until no earlier than 11am. I love taking room temperature showers in the morning while looking out at my potential lemon tree with the windows wide open, singing at the top of my lungs to my neighbors' enjoyment or displeasure (there's no in between). I love wearing next to nothing and eating lots of fresh summer fruit and drinking tons of water. I love sleeping comfortably on top of my comforter with Mya at the foot of my bed because she's too hot to lay next to me like she usually does. I love wearing light hoodies as the breeze comes in while watching the sun set over the Pacific Ocean. I love wearing bikinis as clothing even when I'm no where near a pool or any body of water for that matter. I love warm nights where me and my girlfriends party all night in skimpy dresses getting into all sorts of trouble. And most of all I love that my birthday is in summer!
A week from today I'll be 23. I can't believe it. I still feel 18..... well maybe not 18 but 21 which isn't far from 23 BUT 23 sounds like I'm supposed to be this secure, responsible, focused woman and I'm very far from that. I feel like I should be and have so much more at this point but I still don't know where I'm going. I just want to live life, have fun, and follow my heart. It seems fun but it's a little scary. I'm just trusting, hoping, that if I follow my heart and not the system that's set up for us all, I'll end up in a place where I'm genuinely happy.
