all the things I love the most


10. My collection of purses. I took the time yesterday to count, and I have somewhere in the neighborhood of twenty purses. This is not to count my messenger bags and totes. It seems somewhat frivilous, but at least I have something to go with each pair of shoes?

9. My shoes. Again, somewhere in the neighborhood of twenty-ish. Well, that's a lie. I haven't counted in a while. I'm probably up to something like thirty. Yes, I'll agree that this IS ridiculous, but how many pairs of two dollar flip flops do I own? Quite a few. Either way, I have a lot of shoes.

8. My cell phone. I'm quite afraid sometimes that my phone has become just another limb; I text so often that I can do so with my eyes closed!

7. My journal. I happen to have two: one for writing class, and one for personal things... where everything I can't write in my writing journal goes! I always have my journal with me and I'm always dumping ideas into it.

6. My journals are not to be confused with my blogs. I suppose that I just like writing... five journals? Somewhat excessive. I write in three blogs regularly. Again, a personal blog, a writing blog, and this time: a hobby blog.

5. I would be unable to write in my hobby blog if I didn't have a hobby, so next we have my dolls. They're japanese and pretty cool. Pretty creepy at the same time (how many kinds of dolls can wink at you?) but still cool.

4. I also would be unable to write in my blogs if I did not have a computer, and I have to say that I sit in front of mine more than is probably healthy. My friends have often remarked on my consistency in responding to emails quickly, and this is what I have to say about that: Of course I respond right away every time... I'm never away!

3. More than I love my computer, though, I love my books. I read all the time and constantly have a pile of half-read books next to my bed. I'm always reading something.

2. My bed. It is the most wonderful place I know of, and the only one that sometimes I feel I never want to leave. In the mornings I often find myself wondering if an english test is really such a bad things to miss...

1. I sat here for quite a while pondering what my number one should be. There are plenty of objects that factor in on a day to day basis, but what affects it the most?

My music. Never will you walk into my room and hear nothing. I always have my stereo on, my mp3 player with me, or, if neither, at least a song stuck in my head. Music is a terribly cliche thing to put as number one, but it is true that what I listen to sets the tone for my attitude everyday.

Those are the ten things I wouldn't want to live without.

leah, i was reaidng this and i feel like i have so much to comment on, its overwhelming.. ok for starters, i have a suitcase full of purses, which i thought was pretty impresseive. Secondly, I have to admit that when my cell dies, I feel a little but detached from the world. Thirdly I was wondering if you wrote in 5 separate journals, or that was just how many you have? And finally, music. I dont actually know what I have to say about it, but it is jsut so amazing. Do you ever listen to a song and it reminds you of some time in your life.. say for instance The Backstreetboys.. Larger Than Life? Mhmm, I thought so. Anyways I'll leave room in your comments section for others.
