Golden Afternoon




It's that time again, yes summer (well close enough), and one of my favorite things about it is obviously the flowers. Combine that with my passion of photography and you get this. All blooms without the bugs! Lucky.

Breakfast of Champions

Why is it the moment school lets out we find ourselves actually yearning to write? Of course, then again maybe it's just me and my need to be ironic. Lets face it, if I'm not stressed I'm bored and I've yet to find that peaceful middle ground...but I'm gaining on it.

So if you haven't gathered, I'm through with the latest semester of college and not stepping foot on campus again till the fall, and it feels quite good if I do say so myself. I've officially got a year under my belt which still seems strange to me. I have yet to really grasp this concept. Sometimes it doesn't feel that long and sometimes it feels ages longer than its really been.

So what have I been doing all this time? Frankly your guess is as good as mine. That's partly due to the fact I have a terrible memory and partly because it's obvious- work work and more work. But now that coursework is over life's become much simpler. A perfect evening involves setting back and listening to the likes of Wolfmother or perhaps spinning something on the record player while enjoying a glass of cranberry apple juice (keep it classy!). Or snuggling up with a good book like my current read which happens to be Break on Through: The Life and Death of Jim Morrison. Maybe not a classic, but it should be.


So yeah, I may not have anything to say but that never stopped me before. Thought I would leave you with a picture of my latest work- a cross-stitched Audrey Hepburn because I never came across a breakfast at Tiffany's I didn't like (and that's saying a lot considering I'm not one for breakfast foods). ;)

U2 Sang it Best....

Wow, it's been too long...technically an entire year! My blog post bidding farewell to 2008 and welcoming 2009 seems like mere days ago. I don't care if it's supposedly set, time is indeed going faster than it used to! That or my persistence of memory has, thanks a lot Dali!

In all seriousness Happy New Year. A new century, can you believe it? If the Aztecs were right then I'm proud to say it's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine! I've got a brand new outlook to go with the times, and I'm excited. All I ask of this year: Don't pass me by, don't make me cry. It may be a Beatles song, but it sounds good enough to me. I see some (hopefully) interesting things coming my way this year. Now if I just ever make it out of the house I'll have a great start! School is already stressful, my classes may well require everything I've got this semester. I felt bad for playing it lazy over Christmas break, now I realise I was only doing myself a favor. However, I'll only let such subjects of math and science get me down so far. College comes with coffee shops, and I'm taking full advantage! So here's to all-nighters in vain, facebook chat when we least expect it, unknowingly super gluing things to our hands, and having a blast in the quirkiest of occasions! Happy 2010 baby!
