science meets art

Despite the fact that my brain does not easily comprehend science, it fascinates me.

What fascinates me even more are scientific illustrations

I LOVE THESE.

I am also currently pining over the Pictoral Webster's they have at Anthropologie...

yith pleath...

guilty pleasure...

ok. so I have been perusing various blogs and websites this morning, and I'll be honest... they've been mostly wedding blogs.

I am usually not that much of a girly girl, but something about weddings...

gahhh I just love them.

About a year ago I was a +1 guest at a wedding of which I had never met the bride or groom... but I still found myself crying out of the beauty of the ceremony. (C'mon they were young and adorable and the minister was the groom's father, ah it was great.)

ANYway... I'll confess that I have an entire folder dedicated to wedding inspirations I've found that I'll dig up (and have to dust off) whenever my own wedding day may come. (though, I should probably have at least some dating experience before I start planning but whatevs...)

i'm too tired to sleep... i can't sleep a wink...

I've been trying to go to bed earlier these days, and, for the most part, I have been. But, regardless of it only being 10:15

I cannot sleep.

So... I'm watching Roman Holiday.

What better thing to do when one can't sleep except watch Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn in all their greatness? Seriously... nothing.

Once an insomniac always an insomniac perhaps... eh.

wootcakes!

My friend Allie over at No Small Dreams was oh too kind and nominated for a blog award! Allie was a friend and mentor of mine way back in high school when she was a sooper cool senior and I was a lonely loser freshman.

She still is sooper cool beeteedubs.

Rules:
1. thank the person who nominated you for the award.
2. copy the logo and post it on your blog.
3. link to the person who nominated you for this award.
4. name 7 things about yourself that people may not know.
5. nominate 7 "Kreativ Bloggers."
6. post links the 7 bloggers nominated.
7. leave a comment on each of the blogs letting them know they've been nominated!

Seven Things About Me:

1. I am afraid of baby shoes, elevators, E.T. and underground aquariums.

2. I am twice a college dropout.

3. I do not have a middle name.

4. I love bread and would eat only bread if that was healthy...

5. I have two sisters, one older, one younger, so middle-child-syndrome!!!

6. I'm not a planner, I enjoy spontaneity.

7. I hated reading until my Dad brought home My Side of the Mountain on book on tape... fell in love with literature after that.

I nominate:

Egad! I don't even follow 7 blogs!!!

So... I will promise to bust this back out in the future. okeeedokee?

oh me, oh my!

I can't believe its been a month since I last posted... oops.

Well I have the excuse of being busy with dropping out of college and moving back to California...

Good choice, interesting, unexpected...

I just need to figure out what I want to do next...

But in the meantime, I'm just doing the things in life that bring me joy.

Take life slowly.

Some might misconstrue that as selfish or lazy, but I don't think so. We only have one life to live, I figure you might as well try and make the most of it and strive to enjoy it rather than strive for fame or wealth or status.

We shall see what happens...

tut tut it looks like...

RAIN!!!

and i LOOOOVE it.

puddle jumping after class anyone?
