t.m.i. tuesday

there was nothing on tv sunday night....

so i made the decision to watch....

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3: SENIOR YEAR

yep.

let's just say i havent watched the disney channel in some time.
and...
it was enchanting.

i sent my friend christina a text asking her if it was ok for me to be watching this movie ( you know there are rules to being a teacher, like touching students or buying them alcohol... i didnt want to cross those lines, since these ARE real high school students in the movie ). she relieved me that it was indeed ok for me to watch but not to learn any of the dance sequences (too late).

i then told her i had already rationalized that it was ok for me to have a crush on zac effron... she confirmed it. 

unfortunately, my bed time is 10 and the movie didnt get over until 11 so i have no idea what happened at the prom!! what about gabriella? and sharpei????
so many questions!

another good thing about the disney channel... 

the commercials.

they are so informative. i had no idea demi lavato was so passionate about dance!

im definitely team demi. 

she's so more real than selena gomez.

by the way, selena and nick broke up.

theyre trying to focus on their careers.

tears.

pretty little things

 can i tell you how much i have been loving paper lanterns lately?

well, i have been loving them a lot!

wouldnt this be the funnest party atmosphere?

yes.

(i will continue to ask and answer my own questions)

what colors would you want to see them?

i would love for them to be a monotone or limited palette (maybe greens or blues) but im loving all different colors together as well. so much fun.

i also love different sizes together or grouped in one big cluster.

they are pretty swell, if you ask me. or i ask myself: are they swell?

yes.

and they are pretty inexpensive, too.

pretty little things

i would like to have dinner at this table, please.

i have had a tired week. coming back to school after having a week off was so hard. but good news, my graduation is may 8th! hooray! another week closer!

t.m.i. tuesday

here's the story on "notes from the liquor cabinet":

 some of you may already know

two summers ago, eager and bright eyed, i took an internship at the birmingham museum of art starting right after my graduation from auburn. i had imagined it to be this grand super awesome experience and that i was going to learn so much about museums and being a REAL graphic designer. to my disappointment,
it fell somewhat short of that.

i was set up with a computer in a closet without windows with my back to the door (and mostly without human interaction). but...
this was no ordinary closet. this was a special closet.

this closet was so special, it housed all the liquor and booze for the museum's monthly cocktail party, art on the rocks.

being left with my thoughts and internet access, thus, my blog was born for your
(and mostly my) enjoyment.

disclaimer: the internship wasnt completely miserable. i enjoyed being at the museum, got to come in at like 10 every morning, hour lunches, and left by about 4 every day.

t.m.i. tuesday

 

my name is mollie and im weird about milk.

my milk rules:

1. i do not share milk from the glass.

2. i do not drink milk within one day of the expiration date.

3. i dig in the milk shelf to find the latest expiration date.

4. only ice cold milk, if it gets above 34 degrees, i dont want it.

5. no skim milk... it looks like dirty water.

6. absolutely no drinking milk from the carton! (greg)

7. if i havent opened the jug in a couple of days...

its no good.

 8. there is no drinking milk from an already used glass and vice versa.

clean glasses only!

 warm milk makes my skin crawl. i dont know how people drink that. that probably explains why i eat ice cream extremely fast... i dont like it to melt.

i think i would be friends with the olsen twins if they ever met me.

who's with me?

 

has anyone seen it yet?

i cant wait to see it!

finally, its here! 

ive been waiting in anticipation for a year!

AND

HARRY POTTER!

i have been waiting for a good 4 years for this one.

im a fanatic.

and i cannot wait, absolutely going to burst into a million pieces, if i dont get to go soon!

dream come true.

yes, im a little kid.

birthdays were had

if you didnt already know, i had my 25th birthday. it was all i expected it to be... just another day with more text messages and presents. it started with a kind birminghamian (?) running me off the road on the way to school. but, i did get out of school an hour early, greg came into town, and i ate dinner at california pizza kitchen (or chicken) with my grand parents. i got all my favorite things: cook books, wine, flowers, skinny cows, starbucks, and money. hooray! so it really was great. 

over christmas, my friend hamp and i and his family were talking about age. we all finally came to the consensus that 25 really is younger than we all thought it was going to be. hamp, 27, used to think he would be married and have one kid by now, brut (hamp's brother) thought he would be married and thinking about kids, and i thought i would be married (during my 25th year... not going to happen). hamp's older cousins (who just had their first child at 37) had the same ideas. but kate (cousin) said she really needed her 20's and 30's to figure her life out. it was an interesting and enlightening conversation. as trite as it may be, age really is just a number and personal perception. so im going to stop feeling bad about being 25, still in school, still being supported, and working for an hourly wage. yay!

other events of note: 

papa jack turned 82 yesterday! he celebrated with dinner at logan's roadhouse and probably 6 hours of fox news on repeat. 

he said he had a lot of phone calls and cards. 

happy bday, pj!
