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.

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...

bright star

I saw the film 'Bright Star' tonight... (starring Ben Whishaw, Abbie Cornish, and Paul Schneider) It is a rather slow-moving British period piece following the last years of the famed poet John Keats before his death at the young age of twenty-five. While the story line was a tad sluggish, the cinematography was exquisite.

Oh to be a poet in the 1800's, days spent resting in the gardens, strolling through the woods...

This was my favourite scene... it is magical.
Officially adding "recreate the room of butterflies scene" to my bucket list...

four eyes

I have terrible eyesight.
I can't see anything clearly past elbow's length away...
I've been donning spectacles since the 3rd grade.
I just got a new pair today and, well...
not much has changed...

my new favourite person...

i've been obsessing over Neko Case all summer. 

I want to be her.



 Her newest album, Middle Cyclone, was recorded partly in a barn and includes barnyard noises and an orchestra of abandoned pianos conducted by Garth Hudson.

amazing

She pens ingenious lyrics; beautiful creative compositions that leave you fantasizing an artsy movie montage to accompany her astonishing voice. 



Not only is she kick-ass when it comes to making music, but she is also a kick-ass WOMAN.
She doesn't want to be married, or have any children.

omigash i love everything about her
