Look at this nugget all serious and shit. Oh the ability to be in trance mode with video games. 
black holes for eyes.
OMGOMGOMG
Thrifting, bubble tea, and good company tomorrow.
What could be better?
Eeek. I am on a mission to find some new spring outfits while at Unique (thrift store) especially since I gave up shopping at other stores. I hope to find some new pieces since spring is right around the corner. I can't wait to wear nothing but skirts, florals, and oxfords.

Yo-lo-lay-he-who
So for the past few months I have wanted to cut my hair peter pan style, but not having enough money to go to Bang( the place where I usually get my sweet haircuts)I have had to live with my boring hair. So I played with it one day and got this.
Profile View
Side View
Birds view
I like it alot, its simple,fast,cute, and gets hair away from my face( which means no greasy hair and less showering) oh lazy me.
So far I have gotten loads of compliments and questions about it.
Its not that hard to do guys!
anyways I think I am going to experiment with my hair some more, and you should too!
Oh hey
meet my mom!

do you see any resemblances?
I think our nose and attitude is the same.

My future Room
I can't wait to have my own little apartment somewhere quiet and cozy. I hope it smells like summer rain and I hope its with the one I love.
With all this talking about moving and finding places to stay it got me thinking, man am I tired of having roommates, rules, restrictions, and so on. I just want to live on my own, decorate it as I please, play some loud obnoxious music, watch scary movies, and just have freedom.
Next year is going to suck not only because I won't be living on campus but because Caco and I will be apart for the first time since the first day of college. I mean I will see him everyday but I know it is going to be different. It means I will not be able to wake up next to him, eat meals, or play video games with him.
It's going to be hard but I know we can do it. And I know behind every black tunnel There is a Light That Never Goes Out.
I mean we have lasted this long and we are each others first love. I hope I am right about this because I have never felt so right about anything as I do now. 
anyways I hope my room looks somewhat like this with beautiful antique inspired wall paper, and a beautifully old and refurnished vanity.
But what I really hope is for it to smell like summer rain, a smell so vivid and familiar to me.

Now I remember
Why I am such a disturbing person.
I read Edward Gorey as a child among other horrifying things.
Oh, the ability to be immune to the macabre and weird. 


Nothing like learning your ABC's by Edward Gorey.
On to other art which is not as disturbing which I am totally digging right now.

Today is just not my day
1. I woke up late.
2. I had the most boring two classes of my life.
3. I did not turn my homework in.
4. I do not have any plans for spring break.
5. Carlos left today for spring break.
6. I have no friends because they are all away in different worlds.
7. I got rejected from a job and blue ink (which I did not want to do because I hate rejection.
8. And I am just feeling like a overall failure.
I wish I had something to look forward to but I honestly don't. At least I will get to go on thrift adventures next week(not like I haven't).
I actually went two days ago and found some pretty awesome stuff including a leather belt with a gold buckle.
I actually have made a theory behind the belt, I believe it belonged to royalty and was eventually stolen from the Brazilian palace and sold to a American here in the late 70's for $85 dollars (which is what is labeled in the inside of the belt) today I estimate the worth to be over $300 dollars but realistically it is probably worth at most $100. Either way I am so glad I found it, I have never seen any belt like it.I got it for $2 and am so happy I found it.
I also found a alot of blouses and a coat (because all sweaters and outwear were 50% off) so that was great.
I am especially proud of myself because I did not spend more than $10 dollars.
anyway I am still feeling down, I'll probably cook something and watch a movie to cheer me up. 

One day I hope to be just as sad and beautiful as these women.
I got the sad part down.

A night of realizations
Today I realized...
How old I am getting
and how young I still feel.
Today I realized...
How surrounded I am
and how lonely it feels
Today I realized...
How awful it is to be alone in a room
with no one to dance with.
Today I realized...
How awesome it would be if
I could just get up and leave.
Seriously, I realized a lot of things
I realized that wearing lipstick attracts all the black men
and that I really hate my job
and that people will only talk to me based on what I wear
and that many of those people only like me because of that
and that I really should not be studying English
and that I should have probably gone to beauty school
and that this blog is a waste of time
and that I should be sleeping
and that
and that
and that.
AND THIS
was all some fucking bullshit.

FAT tuesday
And I didn't eat as much as I wanted to.
So for lent this year I am giving up soda and junk food?
ok ok I know it's wrong to benefit from lent but eh...
Oh! I know. For Lent I will not shop anywhere for full price, only for food. Which gives me a excuse to go thrifting. So for forty days I am not to shop at the following
Target, H&M, UO, or F21. This is gonna be hard. Lets hope I last.
And I am to be nicer to others.
That should do? and perhaps go to mass here and there. eh.
Anyways today went well, woke up on time, had a good hair day/good outfit day, read my poem at last, and participated in class.
Everything went well, my professor said I had the best imagery yet and everyone except for Tory (who always seems to give negative feedback to others) gave nice feedback. But now I have to revise it even further, hmmm wish me luck. 





Here I am wearing
target skirt $18
UO belt $9
Amazing blue scrunchy shirt $7 ( which I bought four different colors of because they were so cheap)
We who see boots
Purse from H&M

Post-Valentines
So valentines was pretty chill which I didn't mind. We didn't do anything cheesy like paint pictures for each other or watch lame chick flicks instead we took a mini adventure to the thrift store and feasted at some Chinese buffet (which ironically guess what? it was Chinese new years! but know one gives a rats ass about that. SHEESH. Oh Americans...) Anyways I found a lot of wonderful new additions to my wardrobe which I am really excited about. Among them are two new dresses, a secretary blouse, a kitty cat shirt, and a sweet floral jacket(as if I need more floral in my life).
In addition I am pretty sure I found the most amazing sequin dress known to mankind-- which I will be wearing for my 21st birthday extravaganza. 

shirt thrift-ed= $.50
MOST amazing shirt I have found at a thrift store.
CAT, I'm a kitty cat and I dance, dance, dance, I dance, dance, dance.
Skirt $14
Doc Martens from boyfriend.
