A second year Design & Technology major at San Francisco Art Institute. I love to think up improbable projects, bake cookies, read stories, paint, photograph, design, and travel.
As summer begins here on the east coast, I think its high time to take another look at the things that I adore at this point in time, the last update on this being the end of March!
Sometime this summer while I am on this coast I will be going down the cape, hopefully to Provincetown, one of my favorite places ever!
Sailboats! Since I am soon to be getting a tattoo of this one!
True Blood, an HBO show about vampires set in Louisiana, a little tacky and such but so addicting, the second season just started!
One of the best things about being back east for a little while is my glorious reunion with my best friend of many years, she goes to school in Chicago now and so we don’t get to see each other unless we are both back home.
I FINALLY saw “Vicky Christina Barcelona” and fell in love, I want to go to Barcelona now! Its an awesome movie that I highly recommend.
I’ve been neglecting this poor little blog, but its not my fault, I swear! It was my birthday, on the 10th, then I flew home to spend a few days in MA, flew back, and naturally got really horrendous sick with some sort of flu for like a week. After that I’ve been swimming under a sea of school work and projects. So its been hard to find time to blog! Here are some things that I love lately!
First and foremost…I’m going to Disneyland!!! On April 11th as a late birthday present! I am so so SO excited.
Sunshine Cleaning…I can not wait to see this!
This super zen game thingy.
This is pretty beautiful, however I don’t really like the music they use, try syncing it up with “The Young Machines” by Her Space Holiday, much better!!!
How insanely beautiful does this look? This is Holi, the festival of colors in India, you can see more images here. Or learn more about it here. I really want to travel through India someday, and this is something I definitely want to see in my lifetime!!
Greece, seriously, I know I wont come into any money, but if I did and I could travel this summer, I would want to go to Greece, it just looks so beautiful!
Text based art and posters…some great inspiration can be found here. I am getting some great ideas for some new typography and text based art!
A few images that are inspiring me lately, I am always saving images in my Flickr favorites that inspire me. Right now I am very inspired by traveling, images of Boston and San Francisco (my two homes), suitcases, fields of flowers someplace warmer, places like Japan and India where I want to go…the road ahead.
I move in 5 days, and a great way to prepare for a trip or move or anything is to have a playlist about it so you can listen and get totally excited! Here are my top 10 songs from my California playlist. It gets me so excited for my move…well not about packing for said move, but thats another post!
1. Holiday From Real by Jacks Mannequin
“Oh, California in the Summer/Ah, and my hair is growin’ long”
2. Over My Head by The Fray
“As you lose the argument in a cable car.”
3. California Girls by The Beach Boys
“I wish they all could be california girls/The west coast has the sunshine”
4. Piazza New York Catcher by Belle & Sebastion
