cooler than me

Mike Posner's "Cooler than Me" has become my newest obsession. I think it is his voice - my body instantly relaxes.

Fun find

I typically do not wear clothing from Talbots due to the fit. However, I saw this cute, nautical sweater and had to have it. Talbots Cardigan

Now I just need a yacht and I will be set.

It's a small world afterall

If we could turn the population of the earth into a small community of 100 people, keeping the same proportions we have today, it would be something like this...

61 Asians, 12 Europeans, 8 North Americans, 5 South Americans and Caribbean, 13 Africans, and 1 Oceanian

50 men and 50 women

47 lives in urban areas

12 are disabled

33 Christians (Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox, Anglicans, etc.), 21 Muslims, 13 Hindus, 6 Buddhists, 1 Sikh, 1 Jew, 11 non-religious, 11 practicing other religions, and 3 Atheists

43 live without basic sanitation
18 live without an improved water source

20 people own 75% of the entire world income

14 are hungry and malnourished
12 cannot read
8 have an internet connection

1 adult, aged 15-49, has HIV/AIDS

The village spends $1.24 trillion USD on military expenditures and only $100 billion USD on development aid

If you keep your food in a refrigerator and your clothes in a closet. If you have a roof over your head and have a bed to sleep in, then you are richer than 75% of the entire world population.

21 people live on $1.25 USD per day or less

Appreciate what you have and do your best for a better world!

WOW!

Has it almost been a year since I've posted last? Goodness. I guess that means there has not been anything of importance to share. Just kidding. Life has been extremely busy and crazy good. Here are some of my loves over the past year:

Large Longchamp tote = best school bag ever! 

Oh Austin, how I love you. Everything is bigger in Texas, and capital building proves it. You could see the building from every angle of the city.  

I'm not a big take-a-picture-of-a-flower person, but this flower called out to me to capture its glory. Love the mountains...especially Montreat. 

Check out my friend's stationery business Foster and Stella. These thank you cards are by far my favs in her collection.

My macbook pro. Best and smartest purchase I've made in my adult life. That's saying something.
