{bean}

Hi, I'm Nolle. i've been alive for a while now. well, not that long, but long enough that i've experienced a thing or two on this planet we call earth. i have a million and six freckles that feel it necessary to dance across not only my nose and check bones but all over my body as well. i love bright colors and things that make life seam far more whimsical than it is. i have a lazy eye and every time i try to wink, i mess it up and end up scaring people rather than charming them. my favorite Beatles song is {lucy in the sky with diamonds} and my favorite band may or may not be the smiths. I'm Gemini, so i guess that means i'm youthful and witty. i've always loved grocery shopping, old cats, and writing my journal. And apparently i've been the victim of growing up which unfortunately happens to all of us at one point or another. but i still love the things that made me giggle at age five. like running through the grass right after its been mowed, or eating cherry flavored popsicles on the driveway in mid july. i love the way the asphalt feels against my bare feet in the summer time. the warmth still creeps between my toes even though its dark and the suns gone to sleep. i love my felines. yes all three of them. i don't usually pick favorites but when it comes down to those furry little friends, charlie will always be my best. He's orange and sassy and i love it when he licks my fingers and sleeps on my bed. i love feeling the very first drop land on me as it begins to rain, and the way it smells and the street looks after the clouds have let their tears fall. i love waking up from dreams smiling and then retelling them to my friends. i love the crazy looks i get from my fellow high schoolers as i walk down the halls strumming my ukulele. the only reason they look at me as strange is because they wish they had the guts to do something that bold. i love temporary tattoos, bubbles, and sidewalk chalk. i have crazy, long blonde hair that is usually unkempt and in my face. and since i got my braces off I'm okay with my smile, i actually do it 99 percent of my waking hours. i love word-searches and crossword puzzles and i only write in pen. secretly i love wearing dresses and skirts, and waking up early to curl my hair. but i feel most natural when I'm in one of my big T-shirts and sweats. i love walking home from school everyday. rain or shine. and whenever the weathers nice all the retired neighbors on my street are out gardening. some of them could talk to me for hours if i let them. i love their wrinkly skin and sweet smiles. i love waking up early on saturday mornings when everyone else is still in bed to eat a giant bowl of my favorite cereal and watch the sunrise with my dog. i love the feeling of the wind playing with my long hair and the way the sand smothers my feet as i walk along the beach at lake Tahoe each summer. i love hearing people laugh. and not just the small chuckle kind of laughing. i crave to hear the buoyant sound of a delighted belly laugh. i love hearing a new song on the radio and not knowing the title, that way i have to chase it until is graces its way back onto the radio and into my ears once more. i have a new favorite song everyday of the week. today it just happens to be {Dreams by the Cranberries} but yesterday it was a feel good song by {She&Him} i love falling asleep. i love museums and exhibits. i love utter and complete silence. i have green eyes. and kaleidoskope they may or may not be i love them the same. beause they let me see. they let me see things i love. like beautiful faces, sunrises, autumn leaves and ballons. i love orange jello, jelly beans, and strawberry milk. my favorite word is {bean} and heaven knows why cause i sure don't. i love cutting out pictures from magazies. i love postage stamps and getting letters. i love making music. i've been playing violin for nearly half my life. and singing since i could talk. i love hugs and handshakes... forget the highfives. i love how it feels after brushing my teeth. i love to drop my spare pennys on the ground as i walk so that someone can find a penny pick it up and all day long have good luck just because of me. i love smiling at strangers and every once and a while getting a smile back. not a fake smile. but one that crinkles up their eyes and doesn't leave their face unitl long after we both have passed by. i'm here and there and a million different places at once. theres something i know about life and about myself. constantly in motion, creating discovering, moving, learning, and loving. so its important that you know that i'll never change. but i'll never stay the same either. it must have something to do with the gemini thing i guess... {nolle}
