I'd like to say good day

Today was so peaceful. I think possibly one of the best days of the year. It's been so snowy and windy that It's one of those days where you can stay inside all day and not feel like you're wasting away. I've made my own little getaway in my room and I like to enjoy it as much as possible.
Today I finished my mothers christmas present .. finally :)
It didn't turn out exactly how I wanted.. but It'll do

I never have much luck when I dye fabrics.. they never turn out dark enough.
Also I finally got around to doing laundry and cleaning my room. Something about finishing chores gives you the best feeling.
As of now I'm knitting and listening to all those classic Christmas tunes. Oh Last night I watched It's a wonderful life and cried and cried after.. I don;t remember it being so sad! Maybe it was just me.

This has been making me happy.


Possibly the best Christmas tune ever written and sang.

A very merry Christmas...


I think over the years Christmas has gotten warped...
It started to celebrate Jesus' birthday and somehow it got to the point where its all about us. This ruins Christmas for me in so many ways. For example, It stresses us out...This is the only birthday of the year that we make present list for ourselves! I have a theory that although he didn't do it in the right way, perhaps the Grinch had the right idea when he stole everyone's presents??

"Maybe Christmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas... perhaps... means a little bit more."

All that matters

He asked her if she would like to take a little trip.
She said yes (of course)
They walked past everything that meant something.
They skimmed over the present until there was nowhere else to
Go so they stopped for lunch.

the reality of realestate.

I just went to look at some apartments with my roommate and of course we had to go the most cliche "hick" apartment on the market.
We walked in[cue bulldog barking]
The lady informs us the Baby is sick(of course) and she's in the backroom sleeping.. so we probably shouldn't go in there??
the apartment was crowded with boxes and smelled of moldy shit. If that's possible.
Finally we were brought down to the laundry room where we were greeted by two more bulldogs and a 2 dollar washer and dryer..
I mean if I ever decided to live in a hell hole,the most I would pay for laundry is 75 cents.

sometimes I wonder why penny's can't come up with outfits like this.. It would be a hell of a lot cheaper.

Awake now, thanks.

there's no better way than to wake up from your roommates screaming outside your door.

No good.






my failed charcoal and watercolor

I've been pretty obsessed with this lately

what I'd like to be wearing

the bottom of the coffee mug

This morning my lovely mother came for a surprise visit. She took me out for coffee and as we were sitting together I got to thinking..When I'm older, perhaps a mother myself, will I remember days like this? They're so simple, but yet so special. Sometimes I rush through moments and don't ever stop to look around. It's almost like a cup of coffee...You can gulp it down and it's gone in a second, never to be thought of again Or you can savor it and its warmth will be with you all day.

Cover myself in your bones
The way some might think is an exaggeration
But the thing is I still can’t feel them
Not like I used to.

Lately I’ve been really into wishing .
I wish I had it all.
I was thinking about it today though ..and really wishes are simply bull shit.
It makes no sense that I have to wish on a star to feel happy.
When have your birthday candles ever been the ones to get you a date with your crush? Or gotten you those new pair of shoes?
What would happen if we started replacing the term wish with “Will have” or “will do”?
I think I would get a lot more done.
Is wishing just a cover for our laziness?
What is stopping us from all our marvelous wishes??


If we compiled a book full of everyone’s wishes.. What would it say?

fuax fashion?

I wanted to make this post about fashion.
There are a few problems in my way...
I live in Duluth MN.
how does one keep up with fashion when all I see is college students running around in sweats??
frankly, I'm sick of this.
I took a poll on trendiness.
99% failed.
in fact, the other day I was scoffed at for wearing heels to school!! well fuck you sneaker sally.
My sense of style thrives on inspiration!! But with no inspiration in site.. how does one dress to impress??

The awkward lesbian

She was known for the way she moved
like she owned the place
but when it came to her conversations
they were all shit
