BOOM!@#!


Updates from Hawaii!
I just know that I'm going to live here someday.
I swear, everyone around the age of 18-30 looks GOOD.
Something in the water I tell you.
Two days worth of pictures.
I apologize for the wacky sizing.

The Only One


Boy-baby
I keep jumping high
in hopes of reaching you.
I'm no lady but still, I'm
sweet- like that strawberry
lemon ricotta pancake
you love to eat.

Summer vacation is one schoolday away. I still have not studied for tomorrow's finals. YET. Oh, at this point, one just wants to laze the rest of the days away away away....

fun.


I want  polaroid camera NOW. GAH.
And I would also like that skimpy but oh so cute underwear-looking bikini they have at urban outfitters. But the price is ridiculously high and my funds, at the moment, are quite very low.
Ah well.
As you can see, I'm wearing a varsity jacket. It's ever so warm, and I love the color.

These patriarchs


Look Pa!

I grew.
My friends live in beautiful neighborhoods.

Life is brief, but when it's gone
love goes on and on...

Your love is my drug AND pillowcase dresses

*(Ignore the scary eyes in the second picture)

The most tiring week/weekend ever has passed.
Too bad that there is no rest from this madness until June!
For my English class, we're doing a Transcendentalism project, and for a part of mine, I'm going to make clothes out of old materials, such as a pillowcase, t-shirt, feedsack, etc. (I would explain how dressmaking relates to Thoreau, but that is another story for another time.) As you can see, I made a pillowcase dress. Originally I tried looking up dress patterns for pillowcases but they were all a little childish. I didn't like the sleeves on any of the dresses I found. So, inspired by the Sassy version, I've made the sleeves flutter-like, which I think looks more whimsical.
No SEW!
Just cutting and acessorizing.
Oh! And next time I'll post the bikini I made from an old tshirt.
