You know when you have too much to do and you end up doing nothing? That's kind of how I'm feeling about blogging right now... (The mister taking a scooter break above La Spezia, Italy - May 2012) Where do I start?!? It never used to be this hard for... Continue reading

(photo source) Doing: We got back from Mexico on Sunday (it was an awesome trip!), so I'm trying not to feel weird in a rainy city with an obvious tan (lol). I also started a summer Art History class I need to take to catch up a bit at school... Continue reading

Isn't she lovely? We closed & got our keys to our new apartment on Wednesday - eeek! :) So excited! (That's one of the realtor's photos of the kitchen - all staged furniture). We found her about a month ago and waited and waited and waited and then all the... Continue reading

"Nostalgia" is a sometimes-feature where I'll be sharing photos & memories from my past: mostly because there's usually at least some funny '80's patterns in said photos. I had a cat growing up! His name was Shadow. (he was black - original, right?) (me: circa early '90's - 8 years... Continue reading

Yeah! Definitely.... :) We all read into things in our own way, right? I guess its good that its caused us all to think in the first place, anyway - as opposed to the usual mindless advertising that gets put out there. :)

Hmm...I dont know if I agree with what shes saying, but I see how it can be over-thought in that way....I think the message is pretty simple: were our own worst critics, most often. Unnecessarily. Nothing racist, biased, no we-as-acompany-think-this-in-particular-is-beauty, nor that the message is beauty is of the utmost importance - I just think its simpler than that. Thanks for sharing that link - it was an interesting read! :)

I forgot to mention that from that last roll of film, there were a few happy surprises: That is, the colors made when film & sunlight collide! I mean, obviously they didn't 100% collide, or these would've turned out completely black. But aren't they gorgeous, all light-leaked?! (I dont even... Continue reading

I'm done class for the year! It's kind of euphoric. (I took this with the lens off my camera & a weird light balance - Olympus E-520) Much like this photo - I kind of feel like I'm emerging into the light from a string of very long nights, too... Continue reading

I have a collection of these things: You know - those random 4 x 4 inch needlepoint squares, that aren't framed and usually come in piles of 5-10? Yeah, I can't not get those when I see them in all their bright-yarned glory. lol. I have enough to say it's... Continue reading

Remember when I used to make crafts? (sigh). That was fun. I miss them days, right now. I feel like it's been about 2 years since I made a craft - lol. Kay, That's actually not true, since I've knit and crocheted and even stitched some paper and some small... Continue reading

It's about that time in the semester when I get to sleep 12 hours a week. (Not even exaggerating!) Turns out house-searching, 4 classes, a group project, and 40 hours of work is a hellofalot to handle! A hellofalot. I either feel like superwoman, or like an incredible silly person,...

House fever! (photo source - this is pretty much our one-day dream house). Well, okay - let's rephrase that into a Vancouver-friendly term: apartment fever! (We actually do have house fever, but that's a whole nother post). And I've actually had it for a long while now. BUT we live... Continue reading
