lime cheesecake tartlets

so last night i made lime cheesecake tartlets... just because i could. and they are delicious!

i do admit that i needed to add more butter to the crust, but hey, the first time to try

making these wasn't too bad. :) and nathan definitely isn't complaining!

today was kinda boring. i don't think i missed too much in psychology, if anything all really,

on monday by oversleeping. statistics was useful because of the notes i took, but super

boring... i was literally falling asleep taking notes. 

aaaaand i'm doing some modeling for a local photographer. :) i'm excited!

a little insight

i feel like i can completely relate to this song, for sure. maybe not as much now with certain aspects, but i've been there at one point.

another cover i like is by brooke eden. it's a beautiful song, well performed.

"little miss who you are is so much

more than you like to talk about"

i can't love you back

i'm often times one of those people that expresses their feelings with song lyrics. and sometimes i just like sad and thoughtful songs for no apparent reason. regardless, this song is simply amazing. it's perfect in every way. ♥ enjoy.

If fame were based on kindness instead of popularity, on understanding and not on worldwide attention, you would be the biggest celebrity on earth. And to my heart, you already are.
