One day, you'll be cool


I've been starting to really miss being in the city. Its quite strange, because I do like the country so I've been thinking about it a lot. I think that at times like these when I have nothing to do, choices to make, and feel a bit directionless it is easier to be surrounded by lots of people in a place that is always moving. It can make you feel a bit less stagnant even if you are the only person in the room who has no place to be.

To add to that, as a quiet person and professional daydreamer, I've always loved how the city allows you to just be and blend in amongst the crowds. As ridiculous as it may be, I always feel so much more self conscious and uncomfortable in small towns. That, and the country drives my allergies crazy so I am always forced to take medicine that makes me even more useless than ever so that really doesn't help. (/geek)

They lost their lives in backyards


Do you remember that song? A while ago a friend and I 'accidentally' ended up exploring a bunch of Toronto backyards. Someone actually had this carriage in theirs, just sitting there with about 20 bikes. I must admit that I'm quite jealous, and if I was stronger and...more prone to thievery I just might have taken it home with me.

This Is Not A Test

First, some stills from 'Your Highness'. I'm so excited for this, haha. What a perfect couple.


On the subject of things we observed on our trip, here are some new She and Him photos from 'Bust' magazine. I really like the collage style, the hair and of course the clothes - especially the blue dress/romper and white dress!







photos from zooey-deschanel.net, and google, haha.

Runaway





Just a few pictures of my dogs, Finnigan (first two) and Levi (he's the new one!)

Man alive it is difficult to post from home. Haha with our internet problems it can take up to 4 hours to upload 4 photos.

p.s. I'm excited for tomorrow!

"Strange, Every time I fall asleep I wake up in a different place"


A while ago, I did a modern remake of 'Thumbelina' for my illustration class. After many variations of the characters and setting (so many outfit possibilities, haha!), these are the ones I settled on as part of the set.

But wise men never fall in love


On the subject of sunglasses, I really like these ones from Cheap Monday.


I also really want to make every cupcake from this site. You should check it out and let me know if you make any!

Also, this. I'm so happy that they chose Fools Rush In:

"When I say I'm in love, I mean I'm in love. L-U-V"


Back again! I've spent the past few days packing, moving and reorganizing everything around my house. How boring, haha. Right now I am very in love with this dress from Anthropologie. Its just another reminder of how badly I need a job, sigh.


Also, do you remember these balancing hummingbird things? I found mine while I was cleaning out my room. Memories!
