love vs. hate


five little things i love currently:
1. pink lady apples. they are out of this world right now.
2. the happiness i receive from teaching piano. i am blessed, i tell you.
3. all things white, cream, bone or ivory colored.
4. falling asleep with my head on lovebird's chest. it's the best kind of snuggle.
5. taking baths with epsom salts and homemade candles. pure bliss.

five little things i hate currently:
1. the sore throat that seemed to have made itself a home in my body. 
2. girls who are mean. what is the point? 
3. tomatoes. but, i'm learning to love them. or i'm at least trying to. 
4. my {recent} bad habit of going to bed super late.
5. the thought of having to start school on monday. aka: homework. 

your turn:
let me hear a love and/or a hate on your list today. 
in all things there is opposition, and that is why life is beautiful.

love vs. hate

things i love as of late:
1. pistachio gelato, quinoa and a vegetarian burrito bowl from chipotle.
food. food. food. 
these are my cravings lately. 
2. going back to my second home in life; the dance studio. 
as nice as it was to stuff my face with carbs and sugar during break...
it's not so nice putting leotards and tights  back on.
that being said, the motivation to get back in shape is exhilarating. 
3. reading.
oh, how lovely it is to pick up a book for enjoyment rather than for school.
we've been cozying up while reading ourselves to sleep. it's the perfect ending to a day.
4. aquifer lip balm.
it's incredible.
i've been addicted to aquifer for years. but the new lip "stuff" takes the cake.
5. little old grandpa's and grandma's out and about.
they melt my heart on a daily basis.
movies, grocery stores, restaurants...
i wonder and hope we'll be as charming and as cute, years down the road from now. 

things i hate as of late:
{strongly dislike or am easily bugged by}
1. the "bumps" on the road.
california roads have obnoxious bumps as dividers for the lanes instead of nice smooth lines.
it sounds and feels like a miniature earthquake every time you change lanes.
2. the opposition in our school semesters.
lovebird started this monday. i start in three weeks.
this so kindly makes our spring breaks and the last day of the term one month apart from each other. boo.
3. the way my body aches. 
welcome back to ballet.
every muscle is screaming. quite literally.
especially my neck. i underestimated just how much ballerinas use their necks.
4. dry skin.
i'm a crocodile right now. and that about says it all.
5. when someone walks out of a public bathroom without washing their hands.
yes, i'm a germ-a-phob. but, that's besides the point.
it's disgusting in every way.

a little love-hating in life can never do you harm.
{as long as you love more than you hate.}
