as many people have heard by now, there was a horrific tornado in my hometown of Harrisburg, IL on early Wednesday morning.
lives were lost, homes destroyed, stores demolished.
but we won't let that keep us down.
there have been people from all over have been pitching in to help rebuild our little city.
people have been working hard, every day.
I'm so proud to come from a town where this can't and won't bring us down.
Mayor Gregg, such a wonderful man, has been quoted saying, we will rebuild and this will make us stronger.
even though it's for awful reasons, the New York Times did an incredible picture slideshow.
you can see it here: NY Times Slideshow
right now, prayers for strength and peace are much needed.

shopping day
today, since I got done with class at 1pm, I went to get some new jeans.
my favorite pair got a hole in them in a horrible place.
I knew Old Navy was having a good sale on jeans, so I went to check them out.
originally, I was planning on only buying one pair, but I found two pairs that fit me just perfectly.
of course, I had to buy both pairs, only $19 a piece.
I also bought a cute purse.
it was only $3.50.
my roommates think I am the bomb at finding bargains.
I like to think I rock at it.

last night
I worked most of the day yesterday, 10am-5pm.
I'm trying to save up my money for my spring break trip to NYC.
last night my friend Becca and I went to Wired Coffee House for a concert.
it was absolutely incredible.
David Curtis from Run Kid Run was the main event.
I have seen Run Kid Run quite a few times, and an acoustic set with David and Neil, but this was different.
David was with a full band, and he played worship songs, popular ones as well as some originals.
it was such an amazing atmosphere in there.
the passion was magnificent.
I'm so glad I went.
and I'm quickly falling in love with Wired.
it such an awesome place to hang out.
plus, Becca and I are turning into hipsters.
skinny jeans, flannel, cardigans, scarves, Toms, nose ring, cool glasses, no money.
together, we are like the ultimate hipster, haha.
