Quote of the week


"Be of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourself a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles."
Helen Keller

Quote of the week

"Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires."
(I just loved this image. So pretty.)

PDX Highrise Highlife





Thursday was my last night in Portland so I tried to make the most of it. I waned a proper way to bid this wonderful city adieu. After work I went out with the ladies from work to VQ. I had the seafood stew and fries and they were both to die for. After dinner I met up with some climbing friends. We hit up my friend Ray's high rise and had some drinks at a local pub in the Alphabet district. We rode the street car (which I hadn't done yet) and strolled home through the remnants of First Thursday. Then we ended the night with some hilarious YouTube videos and a good round of laughs. It was a wonderful way to say "see ya later" to a place that has become like a second home! PDX, I'm gonna miss you!

I heart Music: Mumford and Sons


Mumford and Sons: Little Lion Man
Album: Sigh No More

Weep for yourself, my man, You'll never be what is in your heart
Weep little lion man, You're not as brave as you were at the start
Rate yourself and rape yourself, Take all the courage you have left
Wasted on fixing all the problems that you made in your own head

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn't I, my dear?

Tremble for yourself, my man, You know that you have seen this all before
Tremble little lion man, You'll never settle any of your score
Your grace is wasted in your face, Your boldness stands alone among the wreck
Learn from your mother or else spend your days biting your own neck

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn't I, my dear?
