About: Sup, I'm Lisa Dear.
Before you go "awww, Dear, Lisa" I have heard it a million and one times.
Now that that's out of the way; I looove my boyfriend Jake, playing music, stargazing, Moulin Rouge, tattoos, Mumford & Sons, indie folk, cooking, Food Network/CookingChannel, winter/snow, the 80's, vintage things, Harry Potter!, etc. etc.

I hate HOT days, ska music, game shows, spiders, the color olive, people who shove their religion down your throat, cleaning my room, etc. etc.


I'm on my way to college this fall to Young Harris College (actually I'm not "on my way" since I'm commuting from home, c'est la vie) to peruse a music education degree. I'm not fully set on becoming a music educator but I'm giving it a go. That's life- trial and error.

I need to make a bucket list. 

Life is far too short to always live by the “safe” rules.”

How about

everyone just grow a pair and act nicer to each other. 

I’ve been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they’re real 
I’ve been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are 
All I can feel.




Everyday feels a little harder, not easier. 

5/6/12 Song of the Day- Pillow Talk by Wild Child





This pillow talk
don’t wake me up,
my dream is done.
I’m still in love,
I know your fears,
just lying here.
I think I’ll leave,
Please don’t my dear.
This pillow talk will wake me up
no matter what I’m dreaming.

Absolutely beautiful song. 

It’s completely overwhelming how

a life can completely change in one minute. 

That awkward moment when…

Well, not so much awkward as just plain dumb……

when someone you know says they’re going to your school and majoring in something that you KNOW that you would see them daily because that’s my major, lies and tells someone else that that’s what they’re doing. 

I just realized that probably doesn’t make sense. C’est la vie. 

It’s been one of THOSE days.

Congress

is a piece of shit.

Oh 9gag, how you fill my boring hours with so much laughter. :)

  2. New Girl
  3. Once Upon a Time
  4. The Vampire Diaries 
  5. The Secret Circle 

1. Who is your favorite character in 2? 

Zooey Deschanel, duh. :)

2. Who is your least favorite character in 1?

Marshall&Lilly. They’re basically one person. 

3. What’s your favorite episode of 4?

The one where Elena almost has to turn into a vampire to live..but sadly doesn’t.

4. What is your favorite season of 5?

Since there’s only been one, I’ll go with season 1. 

5. What’s your favorite relationship in 3?

Between Mary Margret and Prince Charming. 

6. Who is your anti relationship in 2?

Jess and her first boyfriend

7. How long have you watched 1?

I just started over Christmas break and so far I’ve seen all the first 6 season. :)


8. How did you become interested in 3?

Uhm, I guess I just saw it on TV once time and then I was hooked. 

9. Who is your favorite actor in 4?

Damon! <3

10. Which show do you prefer 1, 2, or 5? 

How I Met Your Mother for sure. It’s the funniest show I’ve ever seen, EVER.  

11. Which show have you seen more episodes of 1 or 3?  

1, definitely because there’s more seasons.  

12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? 

Emma

13. How would you kill off your favorite character in 1?

I WOULD NEVER KILL Marshall! :(


14. Would a 3/4 crossover work?
?

15. Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely, but strangely okay couple.  

Well Marshall and Lilly have been together for like 15 years and Ted and Robin have dated and Barney and Robin have been together so I guess there’s no more matched to be made between the lead characters. 

16. Overall, which show has a better cast, 3 or 5?

I guess Once Upon a Time since it’s a lot more complex.  

17. Which has better theme music, 2 or 4? 

Vampire Diaries. I contently find new songs from that show! :)

I freaking love How I Met Your Mother.

I freaking love How I Met Your Mother.

I’ve had some great memories and some not so good ones this year.  

Recap:
Horrible grades

Financial Woes 

Loss of all friends from High School

Graduation/Graduation night..

Quitting Dance

Building even more of a bond with Jake

Going to the beach during the summer

Starting College

Making the greatest friends a person could ever ask for

Finally Meeting Jake’s dad

Going to the beach again for Thanksgiving

Having one of the best Christmas’s that I’ve had in a long time

That about sums it up.

I feel like I’ve learned a lot about the world and myself this year.  I’m hoping that 2012 will be even better of a year!
