my brave girls series

Tiffany Julia March 15, 2014

So, for 2014 I decided to give myself my own “one little word.” For this year I chose brave. I chose brave for various reasons, but the big reason for my choosing it was because it was the last of my “goals list” I made myself towards the end of December. I wrote “be brave,” because lately I’ve been a complete worry-wort and it’s sort of getting old. I’m tired…

art is art is art

Tiffany Julia February 27, 2014

I’m taking this art class from CalArts on Coursera called “Live!: A History of Art for Artists, Animators and Gamers” and the first assignment is to “sketch” what you think is art and what people think is art. This is always such a topic for debate because everyone has different conflicting opinions on the subject. When I was taking an art class last year on Coursera, offered by Penn State,…

because it came out perfect

Tiffany Julia February 26, 2014

I took this photo today because I needed a new photo for my new “about me” page. I used this photo as a placeholder, because I always use it as an icon for various sites and have always loved the look. I was really close to just leaving it as the picture for the page, but I thought against it. It’s my about me page, so the picture should be…

mini book reviews – 02.18.14

Tiffany Julia February 18, 2014

If there’s one thing I’ve been trying to do more of this year is read. I didn’t do much reading last year, which is so unlike me. I can honestly say that all I did was watch TV, because that’s what I did everyday…watch TV. Too much TV. It got to the point where I knew by heart the TV schedule to my local ABC7 station. Bad, I say, really…

first time / a mixtape

Tiffany Julia February 3, 2014

Honestly, I haven’t been listening to much music like I normally do. I have no idea of what’s new or old, on the radio or not, a hit or a flop. No clue. If I’m in the mood for some tunes, I play a couple of my old U2, The Beatles, or Bon Jovi records and dance around my living room like I’m in an 80s teen movie sequence. Really,…

11 things

Tiffany Julia February 1, 2014

I got this from Amanda Rose’s blog. It’s a great blog, by the way. I discovered it last night when I was Googling the phrase “One Little Word.” This is the first time I’m doing a post like this, but I thought it would be a fun first. These are the rules:1. Post these rules.2. Post a photo of yourself.3. Answer the questions set for you in the original post.4.…

10 things to take on a backpacking trip

Tiffany Julia January 24, 2014

So, lately I’ve been consumed with my summer backpacking trip to Turkey and Greece that I’m planning for this upcoming September. Yeah, I know September isn’t really summer, but I initially was planning to go in June until I saw that flight prices were much cheaper for September. So I caved. Plus, the weather in the places I’ll be heading will still be decent to soak up the sun and hit…

a year today

Tiffany Julia January 9, 2014

So, it’s officially been a year today that I created this blog. My intention was to blog a little every week on the topic of love and what love is. Along the way, the theme sort of changed. I got really into art journaling and different types of journal documentation and scrapbooking that I wanted to share those things too, so I would post them here as well. It just…

Just a random cover of Applause by Lady Gaga. I was just playing around, actually recording a different song, and well…here you are! I hope you enjoy.

how fictional characters have shaped my life

Tiffany Julia December 28, 2013

“I don’t know where people got the idea that characters in books are supposed to be likable. Books are not in the business of creating merely likable characters with whom you can have some simple identification. Books are in the business of creating great stories that make your brain go all like ahhbdgbdmerhbergurhbudgerbudbaaah.” ― John Green I’m just coming off one of my most emotional reads since TFiOS—The Darkest Minds series…

love makes his home in men’s hearts

Tiffany Julia December 18, 2013

“Love—Eros—makes his home in men’s hearts, but not in every heart, for where there is hardness he departs. His greatest glory is that he cannot do wrong nor allow it; force never comes near him. For all men serve him of their own free will. And he whom Love touches not walks in darkness.” – Plato
