How could you not give this woman an Oscar?
I mean, really.
My best friend saw them both in person when they were wearing these outfits. They were filming close to where she lives and she got to watch. Jealous. Sooo jealous.
Does anyone know if the Finger Lakes are near a nuclear power plant?
I AM DYING. DEAD. DEAD AND GONE. OMG. THS SKETCH.
Kristen wiig is my hero.
Hello tumblr world. I clearly have forgotten how this thing works (not that I ever understood it.) I was trying to comment on one of Emily’s posts, but I gave up. so I guess I’ll write…
anyhoo, just a Brooke Update. I have been living in nyc for 2 weeks now. I have quickly realized happiness in life isn’t necessarily about where you are, but who you’re with… “Brooke, you’re young, single, and in the greatest city on earth! Live it up!!” Yes this is true, but one needs friends to “live it up.” But I must say, God is good and has given me the courage to get out there and try things and meet new people. For example, I went and tried out a hip hop class the other day. which may have been THE whitest I’ve felt in a long time, which doesn’t generally happen back at home with my crew hahaha. Maybe one day I’ll accept the fact that I’m really not black…yeah right!!
I have been very blessed to already have a good church family. This is where I’ve made the majority of my friends. Last night I went to a small group, and can I just say, sometimes it is SO good to be among believers. Such great discussions and people. Quite refreshing.
Some interesting things about me living in nyc:
-bedroom on 6th floor, bathroom on 4th, kitchen on 3rd
-elevator is unavailable most of the time
-I now have legs of steel
-organic local supermarkets
-leggings are pants (finally!)
-live 3 blocks away from central park, and 2 blocks from the Hudson River
-saying “hello princess” will not make me stop and talk to you
-amazing sweets! nom, nom, nom. and the best part is, I don’t get fat cuz I walk up 6 flights of stairs 57 times a day
-get to chill on my roof at night
-the city really never sleeps (damn babies down the hall)
-duane reade instead of walgreens
-poland springs instead of ozarka
-subway system…express, local, uptown, downtown, late night, weekend…
-reading in central park
-running into movie filmings
-and most importantly…pizza by the slice!!!
Since I started college, I have been dying to get out of Oklahoma, counting down the days until I would be free to serve God outside of Oklahoma. Literally every break from school I’ve had, I have been at least out of the state, if not out of the country. I love being in different cultures, I love serving others and sharing God’s love with His people all around the world. But sometimes that passion burns so deep inside of me that I become resentful to where God has placed me right now-good ol Oklahoma.
This year I had every intention of moving away just as soon as I walked across that stage in May. I was Miami bound and ready to start a new life there….but as time ticked by, something just didn’t quite feel right. I spent many nights on my knees before God, begging Him to tell me what to do. I was so confused, “God, I know you’ve called me to reach out to the lost, to get out of my comfort zone, to go to the ends of the earth. And I’m trying to do that, so why are you putting up roadblocks, I don’t understand!!”
And slowly, I have realized that it’s not my time to go just yet. God has been teaching me to love the people here, to reach out to those here, to seek out the opportunities right here in my “Jerusalem”. It might not be an exciting and adventurous story like I longed for, but for the first time in months, I feel an immense amount of peace.
God has perfectly ordained everything, providing me with a job here in which I can use my spanish, and still get to teach dance! Two of the most important things to me =] I get to spend some more time with family and friends, because quite frankly, after the tragedies that I’ve recently faced in my life, I’m just not ready to leave them yet.
I know one day God will call me to leave Oklahoma, whether that’s a year from now or ten years, but for now I am 100% content to stay in my beloved state and to allow my Heavenly Father to use me right here =]
Uh, brooke? Pleeeease, let’s do this.
YESSSS
