Cupcakes + Mary Janes |
Fitness is my newest addiction. My little black and white long haired chihuahua, Penny Lane, is my baby. I will own a bakery someday. I get sleepy in moving cars. I buy organic. I do sun salutations at night. Spinning changed my life. I don't like cuisine, I LOVE IT. I wish my life was a musical. Fashion is my religion. I never worry. I make the best cupcakes. Libraries make me feel warm and fuzzy. Musical Festivals are mecca. I have turned procrastination into an art. I daydream. I go out to eat at restaurants by myself. It’s near impossible to regain my trust. I fight physical insecurities on a second to second basis. I'm going to escape to Paris one day. I always find good parking spots. I have no patience for fair weather friends. I live for today. |

Base Jumping Off the Most Insane Pool in the World (via @Gizmodo)
Base jumping is CRAZY. Props to those crazy jumpers. Props.
Singapore’s Marina Bay Sands hotel is home to one of the most-photographed and internet beloved swimming pools on the planet. It’s atop a massive tower, and looks seamless, like a levitating mirror.

From CNN:
When Komen announced it was cutting Planned Parenthood funds, it failed to mention that it recently named Karen Handel senior vice-president for policy. She ran unsuccessfully for governor of Georgia on a strong anti-abortion platform and called for an end to funding for Planned Parenthood in that state. Another abortion foe, Jane Abraham, the general chairman of the anti-choice Susan B. Anthony List, sits on Komen’s Advocacy Alliance Board.
While abortion is certainly a hot button topic, the Komen Foundation is stupidly putting politics over women’s health. Planned Parenthood’s mission isn’t to give as many abortions as it can (despite what narrow minded pro-lifers will say). In fact, most of what they do is preventative health care for women. Women who cannot afford it and women who do no have the support they need at home.
Planned Parenthood was there for me as a scared 17-year old who grew up in a very conservative and a very Catholic household. Anything sexual, especially with regards to female sexuality and outside marriage, was touted as sinful, shameful, and degrading. At a retreat, girls were told to be modest and to not lead their male counterparts into sin. As a result, I didn’t know my own body. AT ALL.
When I finally decided my sexuality was MY CHOICE and not my Church’s choice, I nervously drove to my first Planned Parenthood appoint, terrified of being caught and nauseated. I was greeted by a staff of caring, friendly nurses and doctors, who taught me about preventative reproductive health care and how to check myself for breast cancer. Planned Parenthood taught me how to take care of my body and that female sexuality was normal and NOT dirty. It was because of this wonderful organization that I took up responsibility for my own reproductive health, instead of jumping into marriage just so I could have sex. Or, more commonly (and stupidly), having unprotected sex anyway and getting pregnant because “birth control killed babies”.
SHAME ON THE KOMEN FOUNDATION. Stand up for women’s’ health and access to women’s’ health care. Stand with Planned Parenthood.

Pay attention in school kids.
“Your” and “You’re” are two different words.
And I totally fucking judge you when you misuse them.
