"The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before."

New additions to my room - a picture frame I've yet to find the perfect picture for (but I kind of like it empty), wall shelves, my old desk I put into my room for the first time, and a cup for my iced coffees.

spongebob: what do you usually do when I'm gone?

patrick: wait for you to come back.

Audrey Tautou is one of my favorite actresses. You must watch Priceless.

These were all taken with my blackberry while I visited the Bergamot Station in Santa Monica. So many galleries featuring so many artists it was overwhelming. The Gallery of Functional Art was probably the most interesting to me only because there were so many different, quirky handmade objects to ooh and ahh over. There were chairs made out of corks, coins, and glass jars which I found fascinating (unfortunately I don't have pictures of it). There was also a paper store with paper ranging from wood to rice and the norm. So amazing! There was this envelope made out of wood paper so it looks like a piece of thinly sliced wood and I wanted it so bad, but I don't write letters nor would I want to send my bills in them so I didn't get any (but I really really wanted it). Maybe I'll just have to start writing letters!

An old photo I found in a drawer and fell in love with and thought I'd scan to share. I'm pretty sure my dad took this, but I don't know where. I'm going to guess it was on his honeymoon with my mom in Hawaii.

These were taken from a 35mm black and white film camera for several class assignments. Developing these in a dark room was time consuming but nonetheless engaging and surprisingly relaxing.

Say hello to my new friend. I've been wanting this fragrance for the last couple months, but thought I'd finish my current one before getting a new one. Yves Saint Laurent Parisienne. I love it - smells like roses and fruits!
