WHERE ARE YOU?!?!?


not in this post, i'll tell ya that.

so anyway, i just didn't feel like the whole
"education"
process today, so i didn't go.

it is healthy to skip every once in awhile

TIS MY BELIEF.

i'm just sittin' around...and i'm perfectly bored.
YESSSS.

brother's helping me paint my room today!!!
YAYY
but i'll have to confide in him that i'm not REALLY sick, as told to my parents.
"...i feel like crap...and my throat hurts..*cough*"

*side note

really quick.
since my computer (or maybe the website) is being a total idiot, my last post didnt come out the way i wanted font-wise.


and this one (even though its just a side note) would look a lot prettier but
OH JOY!
it won't let me change my fonts.



awesome.

I LOVE YOU TECHNOLOGY!!!!
L

ew. i can't even do my signature.
AND IF I DO.
it says "strong" around the 'L' so it tells the comp. to bold it.

yuck.

set fire to your belongings then travel the world

UHMMMMMMMMMM
just realized we had a NEW HEADER PIC!

props to: clai

wow so i'm really excited about...things.
THINGS LIIIIKE:
~everything i bought in chicago
(evergreen am. app. u-neck dress, gray nail polish, ripped up faded levis <3,free people black and teal scarf.. gotta love my teal, aaaaand i think thats it. MAYBE.

if i remember anything else i'll write it.

sadly, i didn't have much luck with the vintage stores and couldn't find any rings.
:(
but there's always many more trips to be taken so ..... stay tuned.

MMMMY MY MY MY
oh my.
my room is getting redone!! YAY!
not how i ULTIMATELY want it to be, but its my current style for now.
-dark chocolate walls
-50's ish bedding with oranges and teals (TEAL TEAL TEAL) and cream
-soon to be painted iron headboard
-desk (to be painted robins egg blue with gold brushed edges) LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE
-other stuff that im not sure of yet (NEW COUCH)
*willlll be taking and posting pictures of that once its done
**wish from the bottom of my heart that i can put in a feather embossed chandelier...dreamm

OK.
now for other renovations.
my bathroom.





kids, you have NO idea how much i've wanted a new bathroom.
ITS INSANE
finally i can say "GET THE HELL OUT" to the white and yellow 80's tile on the walls (yes, the WALLS) that the previous owners so greatly installed.
i can also replace the gruesome tub that only holds, oh i don't know, about
1 inch of water
not to mention new shower.
we're talkin' full demolition.

and it wouldn't bother me to take a sledgehammer to the baseboards myself if i have to.


this girl in my lit. class is hosting a guy for foreign exchange
17...italian...beautiful accent...my current obsession.

we put ourselves into smaller groups and i put myself in his group (...by chance?...) and he read a section of romeo and juliet...

i melted.

oh my oh my oh my.

love, italy, shakespeare,

tempered fur and spangled boots

lexi's visit to chi town was quite excellent!
saturday, we went to wicker park, which was amazing.
and i got:
-black chanel bag from the 80s at this awesome little vintage store
(although it may be a fake, but thats quite alright)
-sea foam green nail polish :]
-american apparel black u-neck dress
-THERMOCHROMATIC american apparel tshirt
-grey american apparel jacket
LEXI GOT GOOD STUFF TOO.
then sunday we went to the beach (FREEZING) and took some beach pics, then went to the movies
then monday ran around highland park and put lexi on an airplane
and well most likely be posting pics of our adventures and purchases later on, as my computor is the lamest thing ever right now.
so today i was so tired, as usual.
and i got home and watched youtube videos on my ipod for pretty much 2 hours straight
consisting of bob dylan interviews, the alexander wang fall 09 runway show, erin wasson x RVCA, and old jimi hendrix interview, and lexi and rachels video dedication to me for the tenth time. :]
i cant wait to get my own apartment
and decorate it
with fur rugs and blankets and pillows and silver trays all around and feather chandeliers!
HEAVEN.
heres some goodies:

http://scarves.lookbook.nu/#more
pleeeeeeeeeeeease look at that. it's magical.

upon reading Cherie Cherie's latest post (i completely adore your blog, if you're reading) i have become ridiculously excited for TIM BURTON'S remake of
alice in wonderland.

not to mention the fact that Johnny Depp (JOHNNY DEPP!!!!) is going to be the mad hatter.
ohhh myyy.
he's my favorite.
:)

but back to life.
dogs are napping all around me.
i love watching them sleep.

mmk. so i'm trying to figure out what to pack for chicago...i always forget something.
*no school today. for once i applaud the administration.

practicing random acts of chaos

so picture this:

i'm sitting on my bathroom floor looking in my cabinet for something to heal my insanely dry hands.

can't find anything

but i do come across of can of totally unused shaving cream.

and then my mind flashes back to pre-K, when we used
to spread that 10 cent shaving cream all over the tables
and draw in it.

what would you do?

needless to say, i've relived the memory.and i have pictures to document:


long story short, i had way too much fun, and it's kind of reassuring to know that all i need to keep myself entertained is a can of shaving cream.
annnnddd:
BONUS! my hands are really soft.
and my bathroom is now permanently scented like "melon burst".
:)
spontaneously, L
so. um.
chicago awaits.
and i'm really excited. don't tell anyone.
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
YEAH.
so while i gather my thoughts...
GO MAKE SOMETHING SWEET/STALK AMERICAN APPAREL'S WEBSITE/LOOK AT THE BLOG, CLAI JUST PUT UP A SWEET POST/BE AWESOME/WEAR A SCARF
.........
done yet?
k cool that's cool.
eminem rocks.
im watching vh1's best songs of the 90's...and im having insane deja vu..
with songs like:
-black hole sun
-my name is
-iris
-semi~charmed life
-good riddance
AND MANY MORE!
thus, throwing me back into my birth decade...LOVE IT.
and i also love life. very much.
WANNA STEP INSIDE MY MIND?
ok well that might not be the best idea...suit yourself.
don't say i didn't warn you.
so i don't know why i felt like going kinda insane on this...and i might put in a picture later. who knows? ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so my main GARMENT GOALS for chi town shoppin' include:
american apparel. anything and everything.
faded denim. any form of it. 'sides a jacket. ehh.
*but so faded that it's practically white...SO FADED ITS RIDICULOUS
boots. no heels since i'm so FREAKING tall already. leather would be sweeettt.
no bags. cause i actually have my fix on them since i got 2 for $30.
yeah. you're jealous
tights. ripped, faded, stretched, shredded, whatever.
shades. love mine but i need more.
RINGS RINGS RINGS RINGS RINGS RINGS RINGS RINGS.
*this is what thrift is for.
ok ok ok ok ok
iiiii'm gonna go.
BYE.

YouUsedToThinkThatOnlyFreaksWoreThriftStoreTshirts

rain rain rain rain rain rain
its raining here too!
and i love it
but today SUCKED
because math teachers are all mean
and rude
and selfish
and gross
and bitchy
and i hate them
:]
so
i did some investigating
and found andrew vanwyngarden's [mgmt] old band from high school
and theres a site where you can download their old music
and i really suggest anyone that loves him as much as i do go check out
GLITTER PENIS dot com
because honestly, its hilarious
the songs arent great
i mean come on its high school
but they are quite hilarious
oh andrew

"when it rains, on this side of town it touches everything..."

so it's raining. and it's a love/hate relationship, me and
this weather.





on one side i want to chill out and dance around outside,make
cookies and watch movies.




but then the world crashes back down and i realize:




i still have school tomorrow
damn it.



well whatever.

i think i'll just do what i HAVE to get done by tomorrow and forget about everything else.

because sometimes in life, you actually have to live.

most of the time people forget that.
so i've decided to remember. if that requires not putting "education" first, then
so be it

well kids i'm gonna go waste time. only one pic today. promise more next time.




ok i lied. L
