Updatesssss

So, I haven't updated in a verrrrry long time. But today I decided to check how many hits I've been getting and was surprised to see I've been consistently getting like 30-40 hits per day. Then I saw that they were ALL from foreign countries. Then I remembered my friend in Spain mentioning that 500 Days of Summer was coming out over there. So I put two and two together and realized that this influx is coming from European readers who have just seen the movie.

So hello, European readers!

As for the reason I haven't updated in a verrrry long time. I changed my major to film and media arts and my production classes are TAKING OVER MY LIFE. I was just out this morning shooting interviews for my final documentary project.

This weekend I'll be shooting some footage for my autobiographical short film. It's due in a week but I dreamed about it the other night and woke up at about 2AM and started frantically scribbling out the storyboard. So I'm hoping my dream-vision for this project actually turns out to be as great as I dreamed it was.

I'm actually planning on starting up a little blog/etsy store/production company enterprise in the next couple of months, so be on the lookout for that. Expect some great posts/accessories/short films as a result of that (hopefully).

Also, just to put it out there, if anyone out there has any screenplays or film ideas that they'd like to see produced, I'm looking for a project for my honors thesis so send them my way!

My life has also been consumed by apartment hunting. By some divine stroke of luck, I'm getting out of my on campus housing agreement and moving off campus with my best friend. However, she is in Spain for the semester so I've been apartment hunting alone. And guess what? RENT IN DC IS SUPERRR EXPENSIVE. It hurts a little bit. But we're having fun brainstorming decor ideas. Be on the lookout for some FANTASTIC thrift store furniture makeovers.

Well, I think thats about it for right now, readers.

Over and out.

is this the end or just the start?


Sometimes, something feels too right to give up on. Maybe I'm a hopeless romantic. Or maybe some things really are meant to be.

and while you've got us on the ropes we plan to play the mess around

Today my boss told me to make some spreadsheets.

And I was secretly annoyed that I had to do actual work.

Then I realized I needed to gain some perspective. Haha.

words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup

This may be my proudest moment ever. I played that word AFTER the word vexed was played. 29 points!

Staggering through premonitions of my death

As the new school year draws closer (1 week until I move! 3 weeks until my roommate returns to the district! 4 weeks until classes start!) things are getting crazy! I spent most of this past week working on the selection committee for the leadership program I'm in and I'm so glad the selection process is finished!

To celebrate, I'm coming out of hiding to bring you this BRILLIANT cover of Fleet Foxes' Tiger Mountain Peasant Song by First Aid Kit.





I can't wait to get home today because these beauties are waiting for me at the front desk!!


Annnnnnnnnndddddddd MY TURNTABLE IS ON IT'S WAY!! I'M SO EXCITED!

Bring the jamzzz!!
