I am not jasmine, I am aladdin. my last name is extremely french and also has the word "dude" in it so that's cool I guess. I'm nineteen and a freshman at florida state university, where I work on the tech team at the college of music and aspire to someday be a music journalist. I'm a hot mess 99% of the time, and asleep for the remaining 1%. I've got one of those sarcastic personalities that is borderline "too far," whatever that means. I grew up on the beach for the first half of my life, and dA hOoD for the second. I believe that dancing heals almost everything, I like to eat hummus, I have a weird obsession with the asian culture, and I think elvis presley is the most gorgeous human to ever walk the earth's grounds. thats it, really. keep walkin' on sunshine, folks

I’m still kinda stuffy and I’m super stressed about a paper I have coming up (but of course I’m continuing to procrastinate) and my mind is of course all over the place every second of each day and I’m worried about a lot of things and people and I’m trying really hard to balance all of this out equally but what I really need to do is take a few seconds to focus on the following.

a year ago this time, I still wasn’t positive about where the heck I was going to school. didn’t know how the heck I’d afford it. didn’t have a huge idea of where I wanted to be in the future. 

right now, I’m sitting in my dorm room at Florida State University (chowin on some delicious Jimmy John’s delivery.) I was accepted here, God-willing, and was able to take class, and live, and eat completely free of charge here over the summer. I just got back from my rad job at the freaking FSU College of Music, where I learned about Audio Recording from a pretty important Engineer by the name of John Hadden, which is, apparently a huge opportunity itself. literally while writing this, my freaking adorable boy…friend, or something along those lines, walked into my room, told me he was leaving because he knew I had work to do, but kissed me on the cheek, set down a drawing of a hand turkey and a chocolate covered donut with green sprinkles onto my desk, and left. GOSH DARN HE’S SO CUTE. anyway, I recently signed a lease for a beautiful apartment next fall with one of the raddest girls I’ve met here so far and two of her good friends. a couple of nights ago, I was invited to join a pretty great dance company here in Tallahassee. my grades are decent, I’ve got everything I could ever ask for. this campus is downright beautiful, and I’ve met handfuls of pretty great people.

for not knowing what the hell I was doing a year ago, I couldn’t be more grateful or happy with the life I am living in this very moment tonight. I need to be calm and patient and take advantage of everything that I have, which is a lot more than I deserve, damnit, and I couldn’t be more blessed.
