Could It Be Forever...

I adore this book. Written by David Cassidy himself, it's a glimpse inside the life of a struggling teen heart throb. It's so interesting! I must stop blogging and keep reading.

Peace and Love,

Savage Mills and Ellicott City...

Yesterday Alyssa and I had a girls day out. We started off by going to Savage Mills. We walked around and went into all the little shops and then we had lunch at Ram's Head.

It was so nice. We sat there for over an hour and just talked. We hit every subject you could possibly think of. It's great to just let everything out and to have someone that will listen to you and feels the same way.

We walked around some more after lunch and wound up in an antique store looking at vintage LIFE magazines.

While we were looking I said, "If they have a David Cassidy one I am totally getting it." Low and behold the next one I picked up had David Cassidy on the cover.

As we continued to look and I held the magazine in my hand I began to question how much I really needed it. I mean yea it was a really cool thing, but what was I going to do with it? I am trying to be better with not splurging all my money so...

...in the end David went back with all of the other LIFE magazines.

After that Alyssa and I were pretty much done at the Mills but we weren't ready to go home. Alyssa and I are similiar in a lot of ways but one that we found yesterday was that we both are adventerous. We get tired of going to the usual hangouts and we like to discover cool new places. So we hopped in the car with the idea that we would just find somewhere else to go. We drove for a few minutes and Alyssa said, "Hey, do you want to go to Ellicott City?" I jumped at the idea! I had never been there before but had always wanted to go. So we looked up directions and were on our way.

When we got there I was immediately in love with the little town. I could have walked around for hours. Alyssa and I had a limited amount of time but it was long enough for us to check out a good amount of the main street.

First we went into this little french shop that had the cutest little things inside.

After that we hit antique shops, theater/sports shops, dress shops and our favorite Vintage Girls. I could have bought everything inside that store!!

Before we headed home we stopped inside Sweets bakery for iced coffee and cupcakes.

And if that wasn't enough about an hour after we got home we both went to the theater to see Charlie St. Cloud with my sister, Isaac, and some other friends. Alyssa and I both ended up wearing our handmade Zac Efron shirts. The movie was so-so but Zac Efron was gorgeous as always. His eyes alone are unbelieveable.

I had such a great day! Alyssa and I are planning another trip to Ellicott City asap.

Peace and Love,

Em

A Blast From The Past...

I had my ipod on shuffle in the car today and I Think I Love You came on by The Partridge Family. I hadn't listened to it in a while and I had forgotten how much I love that song.

I was a total hippie kid. I had 70's themed birthday parties, owned everything that had to do with a peace sign, and The Partridge Family was my favorite show. Yes, I had a major crush on David Cassidy.

Anyway, I just love the lyrics to this song. They make me happy and maybe they'll do the same for you:

I'm sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream

Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain

Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head

And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread

I think I love you

(I think I love you)

This morning, I woke up with this feeling

I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself

I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it

And didn't I go and shout it when you walked into my room

I think I love you

(I think I love you)

I think I love you so what am I so afraid of?

I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for

I think I love you isn't that what life is made of?

Though it worries my to say I've never felt this way.

I don't know what I'm up against

I don't know what it's all about

I got so much to think about, hey

I think I love you so what am I so afraid of?

I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for

I think I love you isn't that what life is made of?

Though it worries me to say I've never felt this way

Believe me you really don't have to worry

I only want to make you happy

And if you say 'Hey, go away' I will

But I think I better stay around and love you

Do you think I have a case? Let me ask you to your face

Do you think you love me? I think I love you

I think I love you

(I think I love you)

I think I love you

(I think I love you)

I think I love you

(I think I love you)

I think I love you

(I think I love you)

I used to sing that all the time. Don't worry, Hippie Goodness Vol. 2 is in the works and this is on it.

Hope this song brightened up your day like it did mine :)

Peace and Love,

Em
