I'm a woman!!!

Hos can I not update today!

Well. That last sentence was an unfortunate event. I meant to write "How can I not update today!" Instead of talking about hoes. Or asking their permission whether or not I can post on my own blog. That would be pretty bossy of them to not let me do that.

So the reason I MUST update today is because it's Bastille Day! In celebration I listened to Yelle, Kate Ryan, Melody's Echo Chamber, and of course France Gall. I also whipped out my accordion and played a few tunes by Yann Tiersen. How could I not? I almost started that sentence with "ho" again. Yeah, how could I not, hos!! 

That sounds bad and I apologize. Don't be offended. I'm a girl, I mean woman, so I am offending myself as well with that last sentence there.

I like style. This isn't just a girl thing, I have many male friends who love style, and one male friend who dedicates pretty much his whole blog to clothing and style. So don't start judging me unrighteously with this next statement, but I bought the cutest romper ever from this website called DHgate. It's like Ebay of China. I'm pretty darn happy with the romper. Here it is. Press the word "here" to see it. The first "here" that is. Cute, no? It's freaking adorable, I've been wanting a romper with sleeves ever since last year when I went to Brooklyn and saw someone wearing a cute freaking jumper with cap sleeves. And now I have one.

One of my favorite composers is Yann Tiersen, and this is a beautiful piano song from him:

Being sad is sad. But it's also really awesome. I would describe myself as having a perspective that's perhaps lower than the average person. Or maybe that's just how we all are, I don't know because I've never been outside of my own experience. My point is this song is sad but it's really beautiful. I love listening to it and just feeling. I had my ACT/mindfulness class today and we discussed our relationship with our thoughts and how getting over depressed feelings is not about trying to control them. Its about being open to them. Being aware of how we feel, and just noticing. Like you would notice a cloud pass through the sky. Instead of trying to shut off and become numb, experience. Of course there's a lot more to it than that, but I believe in the strength that is allowing myself to feel.
