Things I love Thursday - By Ashcan Rantings

(Molly waxes hilarious over at Ashcan Rantings. She has phenomenal taste in music, adorable bangs and is not yet out of high school! The mind boggles at what this girl is going to accomplish once she breaks the big 2-0! - Sarah Von)

One of my favourite things about Sarah’s blog is the positivity that it absolutely radiates, starting with the name and going right up to her weekly celebration of what she enjoys in life. If you read my blog or my tumblr, you might already know this, but I love things, too!

-A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess

I like knowing that I can be anything and anyone I want.

The harmonies are all him, baby. A special bonus is the final line, which was understandably cut from the single.


Cultural differences
It makes life seem rich with possibilities to be reminded of what the human being can be capable of believing, creating and being.
