Lena, Anne and Jodie did. Now your turn.
The Golden Globes were such a great night for the ladies. Smart, talented, funny, powerful; the scope of women who graced that stage was as memorable as their speeches. Lena Dunham said it in a nutshell, “This award is for every woman who felt like there wasn’t a space for her.” I can bet my entire wardrobe that I was not alone in looking down to myself counting all those times I’ve felt like I...

Day 4
Day 4 happy thing to be happy about this 2013.
FULL freaking HOUSE. Full House, Glamour Magazine fresh outta the mail and just a cup of tea. After all, ‘happiness is (can be) defined by a leisurely breakfast,’ that is for certain.

One little space too big.
I used to have this REALLY prominent space between my two front teeth. It was “cute” to my mom and “a trademark” to my aunt. But to ME, it was my least favorite place to look in the mirror.

She just doesn’t know...

Maybe it’s sad that these are now memories. And maybe it’s not sad.
Not orange juice, Paris.
I’m many things. I’m short, I don’t fit in, I hate orange juice and I should probably stay true to my self-professsed bed times.

You know, when I’m sitting at a cozy little cafe over-looking the Eiffel and dipping freshly baked biscotti into a cappuccino whilst writing away as a writer...

Or else, nothing will ever happen.
“Make a little space, and get out of your own way…” Cause, you know. Nothing ever happens if you always play it safe….or if you’re afraid to get dirty.
