(edited Monday Oct 10th) When i went to new york city this summer, i was trying on a pair of really cute heels made of this incredibly soft velvet-like material, they looked amazing and felt incredibly comfortable - did i mention that they were definately too overpriced? As i was about to put them away in awe the sales lady came over and gasped, "Those look amazing on you! They're Sarah Jessica Parker shoes - aren't they just so gorgeous?" Everyone in the nearby vicinity nodded eagerly. They were stunning. A part of me knew she was just a salesperson trying to sell me that shoe, but deep down inside me i totally agreed - there was alot of truth in that comment. In fact, that one comment made me almost consider buying them. But i ended up leaving those beauties on the rack. Im not even a shoe person - im a purse girl - but when you tag on "Sarah Jessica Parker" to a pair of heels, how could you resist? I totally feel that time stands still when you go to univ. While you're away you're stuck in your own world thinking that everything is just as you left it years ago, and its not til you come back and realize that the world doesn't wait for you, its moving so fast you can hardly keep up with it. I look back at my life and draw a blank at the past 3 years of my life, only remembering how life was like before i left. Now im almost done this chapter and i can say that in my mind i still think that everything is the way i left it. Life is becoming more real, and i wish i can just tell it to slow down and to possibly relive it, catch up on everything i dismissed or skipped. People are now getting married, having kids... i don't even know where to find scissors in my own home when i go back becuase my home has changed so much. I feel that I've become a differnt person, not entirely different -just me but more exposed and raw. Anyway, im not sure if i like this fastfowarding feeling when all i want to do is pause, and possibly rewind.
I love this show.
"Later that day I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous." -Carrie
"When you're young, your whole life is about the pursuit of fun, then you grow up and learn to be cautious; you could break a bone, or a heart. You look before you leap and sometimes you don't leap at all because there's not always someone there to catch you. And in life, there is no safety net. When did it stop being fun and start being scary? " -Carrie
"Four years of high school, four years of college, four years of med school. By the time we graduate, we're in our late twenties, and we haven't done anything except go to school and think about science. Time stops, and we're socially retarded." - Dr. Callie
