TOMS

so for the past year or so, i have been wanting a pair of TOMS shoes really bad, but have never been able to cough up $40 bucks. well good thing about jobs is...YOU GET MONEY!!! so you know what that means....yep, i got myself my first pair of TOMS. and i do say first, because let me assure you, i WILL be getting more. and not only do i want more shoes, i now want the whole store of merchandise, including shirt, necklace, sweatshirt, hat, flag, the whole sha-bang. in one word, i'm obsessed. i am wearing my beautiful shoes as we speak, and i simply cant take them off my feet, thats how much i love them. I've had them for about 3 days, and have not touched another pair of shoes the whole time. i'm in love. but even though the shoes are amazing comfortable, and completely adorable, i love the cause even more. i absolutely love the fact that by doing something as simple as buying some shoes, i am helping little kids who don't even have the most simple commodities of life. all my life i have taken shoes for granted, i mean shoes were one thing i could always count on having. every school year i would get another brand spanking new pair to add to my collection, and when my shoes got gross, or over worn, i would throw them out and buy some more. but to think of kids who don't even have one single pair to wear, it honestly breaks my heart. to these kids, the major thing we fight for in life don't matter, the things we spend our whole lives to achieve, aren't even on their minds. instead they are forced to walk around in a harsh environment, getting sores and diseases that can be spread through their bare feet. so when i think that my pair of shoes, which i love, will help a child in need get the same amazing pair of shoes, its quite amazing. but don't take my word for it, read on the website,http://www.toms.com/, I've been on it everyday for the last 5 days, obviously because i'm obsessed, and i cant get enough of the organization. in fact, my new goal is to become an intern sometime in the next few years and be able to help more hands on. well now that I've gone on and on about how much i love TOMS, go an get yourself a pair :] and see for yourself how amazing it feels to wear TOMS!

minor update, no big deal :]

so school starts in 8 weeks!! i cant believe it, things are moving so fast, yet so very slow. i am so excited and cant wait to meet my room mate. i know i am going to have an absolute amazing time!! on another note, i just got a job and so im pretty excited for that :] i will be babysitting for these 2 little girls, and let me tell you they are adorable and when i met them they were sooo excited for me to start! i cant wait, but i will have to wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning to get to thier house by 4:45. so it will take some adjusting, but i will get used to it! other than those few bits of information, my life is boring as can be. haha but im ok with it. a little bit of boring before a crazy year next year is something i can live with. mostly i just hang around with my sisters, and too cute niece, and my friends. i love everyone in my life and am so thankful for everything they do for me. i think i might do a blog a litttle bit later of mine and taylors trip to utah, so look back for that :]]
