clusterphobia, its a thing of the past

So I think I would like to achieve this. It is one style that I am always drawn to. I have actually exhibited my work in a similar layout now that I think about it.

And for those who are a little less daring:

Plus how legit are those drawers. The librarian at my school was supposed to give me a set, but he forgot and got rid of them..

Well Monday night I am off to New York for a week. I'm pretty excited to go back!

dreamy

i like this concept

Where do you stand?

Those who know me personally are aware of my dislike for Starbucks. Aside from not drinking coffee, I try to stay away from caffeine, I also don't agree with what a cult Starbucks drinkers belong to. My mother goes out of her way, sometime waiting twenty minutes for an overpriced drink that in reality she DOES NOT NEED. and okay i understand going once a week, or maybe a few times a week if you really need coffee, but two or more times a day is what really disgusts me. I do not agree with this at all. and if you do feel the need to fuel yourself many times a day, why not support a local coffee shop, whose products are just as good if not better, support them instead of letting some big corporation put them out of business. Seriously, I've seen Starbucks do this many a times.

I dont mean to be a creep.

What ever happened to all those boys who would grace misshapes every Saturday night?
Seriously, I would like to know, because come on we all loved them, and wished the guys we knew were just put together as them.
Actually, if you Google photos of Jackson Pollis, my blog comes up so many times. This is extremely embarrassing and makes me seem to be the creepy one. I would probably turn the brightest shade of red if I ever saw him again.

Today I realized it was Spring. The flowers on the trees are already starting to look like this:

Monday's made easy

I woke up this morning tired and sore. I came across this video and realized it made my Monday morning so much better. so here is my list for curing "Mundane" morning blues:

1. This video, seriously.


2. Give yourself extra time that morning. I know it sounds painful to set our alarm 10 even 15 minutes earlier, but then it just allows for some snooze time. Your sleepy brain thinks its getting some extra time.


3. A protein filled breakfast! I can't even get out of bed without food in me. I really think its the only thing that give me energy for the day. Also take your vitamins!


4. Be comfortable. There really is no reason to be put together on a Monday morning. This isn't the weekend. Make sure you shower, wash your face, or even mediate so you still feel good about yourself.



5. Know that the day will most likely go by quickly and you can climb into bed as soon as you get home (if you must, and in my case yes).

Forgotten post from way back when.

I made this back in January, saved it, never posted it?

I went to Utah for a few days and had a lot of time to scavenge flickr for some more saucy dwellings.


I love hardwood floors. I also enjoy the simplicity of the bedside table and the bed frame. I also like white bedding and sheepkin rugs.Although the shelves above the couch makes me nervous, I really like the color palate of the carpet and furniture
cool couch, cool bike, cool walls, cool picture. enough said for this.
Bright open windows. I love buttery yellows and white paired together. the chandelier and the chaise lounge are classy and chic.
I really need to find a proper way to display my cameras. This is something I am going to try to work on.
I would live here easily.
Or here. mid century classics, yum.


While in Utah I also hit up the thrift stores, purchasing some 1950s National Geographic magazines and a set of children's encyclopedias from the early 60s. I was also tempted to buy my first set of dishes. They I loved them and will save them, look for more until I have a place of my own.

BLOG of the Month?

I was student of the month in my digital design ROP course, go me, I got a keychain, sticker, and a certificate.
This is not the point of the post, only a mere explanation to make the title seem less lame. So anyway on with the show...

BEST BLOG EVER.

Stuff White People Like.

Read this blog for some serious LULZ. It is a funny idea, and duh, truthful.

Some likes of white people include:
#51-Living by the water
#42-Sushi
#41-Indie music (I'm currently laughing reading this)
#40-Apple products
#24 Wine
#18 Awareness

I could go on or you could go and see for yourself.

Rebel Yelle

My friend Athena might be the only one who shares my love of French pop music. I have heard her talk about some girl named Yelle before, but today when we were working on layouts and had in a mix cd a few of Yelle's songs came on and I found myself bouncing in my chair, bobbing my head wishing I was jumping on a trampoline to this music, no lies. It was so fun and brightened my day. So we googled her name only to find out she is a super cute girl!

From French Elle.


Her album cover. I admit its all a bit "French" Nu Rave, but oh well.
For you all, a song off her album, but I recommend you go out and get your paws on the entire thing! http://www.yelle.fr/

Yelle-Ce jeu

listen to it!

clean and simple.

College takes over your life before you even get there. Its sad it took me this long to come to that realization.

Nothing that new for my fashion inspirations.. Francoise, Chloe, Clean and Simple t-shirt and jeans. Maybe once I make my choice on a college I will have time to delve into some new clothingthings.

work in progress.

my bike, its coming along!

Love to Love.

I love Valentine's Day.
and I guess I sorta have a valentine... if not a few
Also Last weekend I went to my first highschool dance..because im still in high school? I know you all forgot.

Cody and I. We are SO damn sassy.

My Yearbook babies.

ruthless

Inspired by the purging Kime did in her apartment I decided it would be an excellent idea if I did the same. Boy does it feel good. First I attacked my closet which was jam packed full to the brim, literally ripping at the seams to the point that no more hangers could fit along the length of it. I took EVERYTHING out and put them on racks and edited it. I would like to say I got rid of a third of my closet because now there is tons of room, TONS. I also got rid of tons of shoes and bags and accesories as well as cleaned out drawers full of random objects. Then I got rid of a large majority of my children's books and "teen fiction" novels (I'm keeping my gossip girl series, how could I not). I had a whole 2 and a half shelves of room which I moved some camera stuff and records up onto that were before just sitting around on the floor. I had done a psuedo organizational/get rid of stuff mission in my room a few months ago but I'm a packrat and my swapmeet finds and photo equipment and photos in general pile up fast. I'm going to have to do this again in a few months because my parents want to move and I will also be moving away temporarily for school.

The final productthe growing pile of things to get rid of

I'm highly anticipating spring. Unlike last year where I couldn't get enough of winter, I ready to defrost (not that its even that cold in LA). Anyway I really like what Luella Bartley showed for her Spring 08 line, even though the designers are well into next Fall I still think spring deserves a bit of focus.
I can't help but think of Thora Birch in Ghost World when I look at this line. Especially the last two. I love everything about the entire look. Also the entire line is Batman themed and shirts and sweaters have little Batman logos on it, gah so cute.

She's not blogging very hard

I was bumming out when I realized how much I've neglected my trusty blog.

ch-ch-ch-changes (duh)

I just did the scariest thing.
I made a new email address.
For this blog, I was forced by blogger to create a gmail account to use for this blog. At the time I had a gmail account for the nature shows. what I did not realize is this is a permanent thing! I am a bit anal when it comes to consolidating things as in I hate having to remember a lot of passwords and email address. So because I created a gmail account that meant witching back and forth with two accounts on one computer and basically it is too much of a hassle. so what I did was create a blogger account using my new email address. then sign onto my nature show account and invite my new account to be a author on this blog. then I had to accept and go back to the nature show account and make my new account an administrator. I then deleted my old account after transferring all my profile info, and here I am much more organized but still a bit anxious from all the email addresses floating around in my head. if you are my friend and don't know my email address, leave a comment and I will email you!
