Rainy Days and Mondays always get me down.


i know the carpenters were california people but this song is so chicago. rain makes me not want to leave my house.

i think my wedding song will be "we've only just begun". is it to early to think of that considering how the only men in my life are fictional? [looking at you chuck bass, edward, cappie, and now fisher on greek].

who's listening to burt bacharach, perry como, dionne warwick, the carpenters, elvis, tom jones, neil diamond and loves it? me. it makes me want to live in a simpler time. well. not really but maybe have the time machine you can go and have an experience and then come back to your regular life. oh, forever in blue jeans.

i was talking to andy tonight and i realized i have some goals i didn't even think of.

during the next year this is what i'd like to accomplish:
  • finish school by next may
  • learn to speak conversational hebrew and read hebrew
  • apply to masters programs in israel or apply for a work program
  • finish conversion to judaism
  • live in israel for a year.
my newst obsession? this amazing tumblr by mandy and nora called leave happier. need a pick me up or smile or just feeling good? go there. love it mandy!!!

Very cute pic!!
I am also loving on Mandy & Nora's new tumblr! Awesome!

No offense to this new Fisher ... but ... he's not that cute. He's average at best, and that's compared to the rest of the world. On a college campus, he's not even CLOSE to being hot enough to make a whole sorority lose their shit.

That said - if he can inspire more episodes of Rebecca in a nightie acting all saucy ... then I fully support him.

I also love listening to Burt Bacharan, Elvis, Tom Jones and many more.. (namely Carly Simon, the 5th dimension, etc.)

Call me cheesy !
