ARRIVALS.

It has started

Can't be stopped, call the fairy mantle, cast me up

Send me, send me, over the ocean I'll find you

Not the radio, not today, there is nothing left

You can say, just get me, get me, over the ocean

I'll find you

Close your eyes baby, close your eyes sunshine

Wait for one more sunrise, then I'm on, I'm on

Feel the rumbling through the chair

Fell the future in, in the end

Fly me, fly me, over the ocean I'll see you

And we're hurrying, and we wait, now we're tumbling

To the gate, send me clearly, over the ocean to find you

Just this one last sunrise and 

I'm home.

-Aqualung "Arrivals"-

YUM.

I can't help but post this recipe. It looks so tasty! Grilled Cheese always makes for a better day. It looks like a good midnight snack for a late night of studying. The picture even makes me hungry. I found the recipe at Life's Ambrosia. Enjoy!

Grilled Cheese and Tomato Sandwich

Ingredients (serves 2): 

4 slices of sour dough bread

2 tablespoons of butter, divided

4 slices of cheddar cheese

1 tomato cut into 4 slices

4 slices of colby cheese

1. Use 1 tablespoon of butter to butter each slice of bread.

2. Layer 2 slices of cheddar cheese, 2 tomato slices and two slices of colby cheese between 2 slices of sour dough bread.

3. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Place sandwich in the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side or until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.

4. Serve.

Enjoy!

REMEMBER ME.

I can finally say without a doubt, that Remember Me is by far my favorite movie of all time. This film was quite frankly love at first sight. It was real, it was unique and it was beautifully tragic. 

As an individual, I have grown so much from this movie. The concept of living in the moment is utterly imperative. Tyler and Ally are two characters you cannot help but fall in love with. I believe that you can find a little part of them in all of us.

 

So follow your heart and live everyday like it's your last. 

No Regrets.
