Be still my heart. This is too good to be true.

quote
When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the Lord will answer them; I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will put in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia, the myrtle, and the olive. I will set in the desert the cypress, the plane and the pine together, that they may see and know, may consider and understand together, that the hand of the Lord has done this, the Holy One of Israel has created it.
Isaiah 41:17-20

white dresses and mimosas.

This Saturday, we put away our black dresses and put on white ones instead! For graduation. Four years of college have come and gone and it was time to celebrate! We toasted, ate shrimp and grits and walked across the cistern with red roses… Surreal, exciting and beautiful.

black dresses and kir royals.

Somehow on Saturday night, my roommates and I all ended up in black dresses, drinking kir royals on the porch.

Sophie and our friend, Ryan, went to “A Charleston Affair” (which is a huge grad/alumni party on campus), while Erin, Maddie and I had our “Alternative Charleston Affair” (which consisted of us having a fancy night on the town). Before we all split ways, we managed to celebrate on our little back porch with our main squeeze (literally), Noah.

Hard to believe that a week from Saturday, we will all be in white dresses, most likely on the porch, getting to ready to graduate college… I don’t want my time with these women to end!

I have friends who leave me blueberries and water colored birthday wishes in the morning, buy me beautiful stationary, make a delicious pistachio macaroon torte and surprise me with madeira.

Thank you, Sophie, Erin and Maddie for making this birthday one of the sweetest. You get me.

Can not believe I’ll be living here next year. Both this video and this city take my breath away.

Je veux exister pour vous. Est-ce prétencieux? Je l’ignore. Si ça l’est, pardonnez-moi. C’est ce que je peux vous dire de plus vrai: je veux exister pour vous.
