Hi! You’re all probably at the beach or a barbecue or getting ready to watch the firework display. I spent my day reading and taking photos for my Summer of Love class. It’s the first day in about a week where it isn’t raining! It’s…

my summer of love
So, because of Hannah Clare of Monster Serenade posting about her love of summer, I not only have some really cool tunes to listen to, but I’m also taking this art journaling/photography class, “Summer of Love” run by Kara Haupt of I Just Might Explode.…

empire records: open ’til midnight
Empire Records has to be one of my favorite movies ever. I could literally rewatch this movie a million times and not get bored with it in the least. It’s your typical early-90’s teen movie, the feel of it borderlining between your classic, The Breakfast Club and…

creating original content
Hey. So, I’ve been a bit uninspired lately. I have a small notebook with blog post ideas written in it, but as I look back at them now, they don’t seem too inspired. I think the whole direction of how I want my blog to…

on indecisiveness
Hi. If you’ve noticed, I changed the layout of my site again. Why? I don’t know. I never know. Most of the time, I just feel like changing it. Do I ever need a reason for doing anything? This brings up the funny subject of…

first kiss and wanderlust / a mixtape
I’ve always liked making playlists. When I was younger, in the days before CDs, I remember having a pile of blank cassette tapes my dad got for me sitting on my desk. My boombox or walkman was always tuned to the local pop radio station.…

smashbooking my eurotrip 2012
I’ve always wanted to get into scrapbooking. It just seemed so fun from all the finished pages I’ve seen on various different blogs. I never really realized how time consuming scrapbook was; let alone expensive. You have to buy all of the embellishments then gather…

the lovely moon
I’ve always liked looking up at the moon. Yet, for a while, I did take it for granted. When you’re a kid, you learn about the moon and the solar system and all the planets, but that’s pretty much it. You know that they exist…
