currently listening to page france. on repeat. going on 3 days. cant. stop. listening.





this is a picture my sister took of her friend. the sis is lovely and everything i'm not. you can tell by her mad photography skillz and you don't even know her.



I love following weelicious.com. It may or may not be a website that gives great baby food recipes even though I don't have a baby. Did I mention that I just like food.. It's a mom who wants to fix healthy food for her kids and she has a page on her website that shows pictures of what she fixes for her son in his school lunch each day. His name is Cale. Or Africa. Or something like that... Obvi. Look how precious this is though: Weelicious Salmon Salad Sandwich, cottage cheese & Weelicious Raspberr-Wee Sauce, berries & carrots.


currently obsessed with anything burlap. and of course, i'm always into monograms of my surname and all. is that how you say it? surname?... Anyway, in my tiny little room fit for the size of a elf, I have taken off my sliding closet doors to open space. The first few weeks the closet was clean, and now I want to cover them with burlap curtains. I'm sure you can imagine the chaos. So pictures of my project will be up soon. Maybe. But don't count on it. I mean I'm updating this thing what.. a year later? Yeah. Go marls.





after driving around pretty sights of waco i had never seen before, i decided a flimsy digital camera is just no longer effective enough. i need something edgy and i need a new hobby. so why not try lomography? diana f+, i will buy you and i will love you very much. you're just gonna have to wait long enough for me to save up for you. you're worth the wait.








pretending like i will be wearing this when i am in europe. did i mention im going to europe for a semester? why yes, yes i am. So, veni vidi vici, folks. Let's face it, i'm counting down: 136 days.








tomorrow is monday. it will not be blue monday. it will be marvelous monday. fact.
