Realizations found in my Closet

1.  A certain percentage of my wardrobe is simply on-hand in case I should ever need to clothe myself and several friends in 80’s attire.
  This, I must confess, I am rather proud of.

2.  I own far more knee socks than a 21-year-old woman needs.
  How many knees do I think I have?
  How many Pippi Longstockings Events was I planning on attending?
  No one needs this many striped knee-highs.


3.  I have five pairs of black tights.
  They are all different.
  They all serve different purposes in an outfit.
  Therefore, they are all justifiable.


4.  …Then again, I can justify my way into keeping anything, which is why I have jeans that won’t button anymore, socks with more holes than actual fabric, and a skirt that my grandmother gave me when I was 12.

5. There will never be a time when I need to have 30 t-shirts at one time, for anything, ever.
  It is just too many.

She explained that we needed to mindful of our behavior at camp, not only because it is important to be kind and respectful, but also because we would be a representation of both our family and Christ to the people around us. That stuck with me.   Now, with so many of us daily browsing and posting to social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, and blogs such as this, our representation is no longer limited to the people we are around in person- it is far-reaching, even global at times. It is certainly a far more widespread representation of yourself to post on the internet than it is to say something in person; on the internet, the dozens or hundreds of people you are connected with may see it. That is an enormous audience.   I feel very strongly that we need to be mindful of that audience, of that re...

Sometimes I look at other girls and wonder how they get such perfect curls in their hair. Then I remember that they get up early and curl it. I just get up late, squint at the mirror, and say “Please be curly, please be curly!” Well, THERE’S your problem.
