Today I'm adoring...


This photo, by Darcie.

♥ Chicago in the fall. The temperature is near perfect and my walks to the bus in the morning are punctuated by the crunching of leaves beneath my feet. Justin and I walked back from 7-11 to the dorms last night very slowly, eating rice krispies and savoring the weather. It fosters the greatest conversation and the most wonderful feelings.

♥ Hulu. Even though it is now even more to blame for my procrastination than Facebook and Twitter. I am watching Community, 30 Rock, Glee, The Colbert Report, and FlashForward on a regular basis now. All so good and distracting! If only Gossip Girl were on Hulu. Though that would probably make my situation worse ;-)

♥ That really fantastic white vintage coat I bought this summer. I don't know if I've even told you guys about it yet. Gah so pretty. It's a white, tweed peacoat with gold buttons and the perfect amount of warmth for this kind of weather. Today I wore it over a black minidress, tights, and black riding boots. Also, those riding boots. I kind of live in them nowadays.

♥ Mexican food. There are two amazing tacquerias down the street and I couldn't for the life of me decide which one I prefer. One has the most delicious flan and orange juice, but the tacos de pastor at the other place are to die for. And they're both perfectly affordable. I love this neighborhood.

♥ Listening to Blondie. Especially "Heart of Glass." The song makes me want to hula-hoop. Or be in a movie shopping montage. Blondie-unrelated, but still something I adore: listening to Cheap Trick in the morning as I get ready for school.

What about you, readers? What has got your heart beating fast lately?

Hi

I am new to this site. I found loads of useful information here. I would also like to add up some thing for this community. I would like to share some [url=http://www.weightrapidloss.com/lose-10-pounds-in-2-weeks-quick-weight-loss-tips]quick weight loss tips[/url]. If you want to know how to lose 10 lb in a week, you are believably not seeing for a common dieting and work out plan. You can lose weight with a common diet and exercise plan, Still this takes a lot of time doing intensive cardio drills and binding to a strict diet. Here I will outline the perfect steps that I took to lose 10 pounds in just a calendar week.

1. Keep Distance from all deep-fried nutrients for the week
2. Drink In an 8oz glass of Citrus paradisi with breakfast every day. (this speeds up up your metabolism)
3. Eat average portions (stop eating when you are full)
4. Instead of consuming 3 huge a meals a day, eat 5-6 small meals to keep your metabolism up and keep your body burning fat.
5. Aviod eating after 9 P.M.. Calories do not burn, when you eat so late.
6. Have a proper sleep everyday. Not getting enough sleep causes been proved to be a leading element to the body storing excess fat.
7. Use a body/colon cleanse for the 7 days. This will get rid of excess weight stored around the tummy area as well as cleanse your body of harmfull pollutants that cause you store fat and feel tired. Flush away excess pounds around the stomach area that otherwise would be hard to lose.
8. I reccomend you using Acai Berry Diet Pills. This one is tested to work, and you can get a free trial.
9. For those man's/womans who need to burn fat quickly, avoid alcoholic drink.
