Five days ago was my seventh month anniversary with Pratt, Brooklyn, and Manhattan. I am currently married to Williamsburg, Brooklyn, living with Bed Stuy, Brooklyn, and having a huge affair with Manhattan. We'll see how things are in seven months. I feel as if things haven't changed at all from the the beginning of the year and completely different at the same time. Next weekend I'm going to start looking for apartments in Brooklyn around school with Becca and Erika. We are going to have the most wild and chill and lovely apartment ever. We are going to have a full bar (Becca is a trained bartender, she took classes). I am applying to Anthropologie, American Apparel, Dick Blick Art Supplies, Whole Foods, and Dylan's Candy Bar. I am also trying to get an internship with a graphic design firm. Right now I have one with a letterpress company called Purgatory Pie Press. It's cute, but very small. I set type, organize it, put it away, and help rack printed material. Since August I have been to more shows then I can count, so I'm going to list them.

1. The Kooks competition- bus tour show, Apple Store SoHo show, concert in Central Park, concert at The Stone Pony, NJ.
2. DIESEL XXX - Diesel's 30th anniversary show/party. Hot Chip, Chaka Khan, T.I., Franz Ferdinand, M.I.A., N.E.R.D.
3. Franz Ferdinand Secret Show
4. MtvU Woodie Awards -Asther Rosh, The Cool Kids, Chromeo, Lykke Li w/ Au Revoir Simone, Santigold w/ Spank Rock, Vampire Weekend
5. Girl Talk
6. Bon Iver w/ The Tallest Man on Earth
7. Vampire Weekend
8. Lykke Li w/ Wildbirds & Peacedrums
9. Noah & the Whale
10. Cut Copy w/ Matt & Kim

And I will be seeing:
Tallest Man on Earth
Peter Bjorn & John w/ Chairlift
Lady GaGa
Franz Ferdinand
Santigold
Metric
Grizzly Bear

These polaroids are from August 08 to February 09 in no particular order:

oh, hello
since my last post I have:

participated in odyssey of the mind

and got first place at OM regionals

and got first place at OM states

and got third place at OM worlds
but we were beat by two teams from singapore, so we're basically best in the u.s.

and made some sweet friends at OM world finals

and goofed off at OM world finals

and ate candy in the boys bathroom at OM world finals

and then I went to a few shows

and then I got kind of silly

with corinna and amanda

and we all got really silly and consumed a lot of alcohol

and then i reminisced

and relived some memories

and graduated

and celebrated graduating

and had a few crazy kids over

and went to florida

and relaxed

and got high in the back of a car in florida

and fell for a boy

and listened to him sing

and sing

and danced

and had a good time

you?

oh hai

I've been to nyc twice

I'm glad this day only happens once every four years.

THE END

so I'm done with pratt all I have left is uarts, sva, and risd (but the only one that involves any effort is risd). here's my portfolio thus far, I still have to do a separate self portrait, room, and bicycle for risd. there's actually only 5 new pieces, everything else is the same as my mica portfolio. I really wish I hadn't taken ap euro this year so I could have taken more art classes. I would have really like to take sculpture and jewelery again. I'm just getting so sick of drawing, and now I have drawing twice a day. It's just so frustrating because throughout high school I've sacrificed art for academics and I didn't take out of school classes so I would have time to do my homework but it turns out it doesn't matter. I don't think BU or pratt or risd are going to look at my grades over my drawing ability and it really sucks. whatev, I'll probably just wind up going to mica, which would be ok I think.

endless summer

things are not so different in my vocal master. you're the face that launched one thousand shits. I might uplaod more later. I might not.

MOAR!

Wed, 02 Jan 2008 03:46:55 GMT

I WANT:
more beirut
more broken social scene
more stars
more jenn grant
more tilly & the wall
more owen pallet
more grizzly bears
more justice/daftpunk/MSTRKRFT
& more $$$$$$$$$$

this is completely useless and I should sleep

Mon, 31 Dec 2007 06:05:01 GMT

right now this would be the perfect life:
boost my gpa up a few points
start taking art classes at keystone
lose weight
do spectacularly on the SATs
go to the mica pre-college camp
travel europe
make the varsity field hockey team
get into NYU early decision
have an amazing senior year
have an even better summer
live in nyc and attend nyu and study art education
get internships
graduate

that is from February 4th, 2007 and I only did two of those things (mica & europe). I'm not even applying to NYU anymore because they don't have graphic design. I did finish applying to Boston University today though. Oh and Yale too. I don't now why the fuck I did that. My mother looked absolutely heartbroken when I told her I wasn't going to, so then I did. I know I'm not going to get in. Actually it would almost be worse if I did get in because everyone would say it was because of my mother (she went there). On the other hand I don't handle rejection very well. I guess it's a lose-lose situation. Eh, whatever I can't do anything about it now. Here's something to look at so this isn't completely useless. I was going to talk about other things with more articulate language and better grammar, but as you can tell that didn't happen. good night.

hey look!

Sun, 16 Dec 2007 05:48:52 GMT

hi kidz. I made some icons & headers because for some reason I think that's more important then filling out college applications, but don't get your hopes up too much, they're all of patrick wolf (<333333333333)

some headers:

fill in the blank, literally, I don't care what you put.

snow day

oh no,

Thu, 13 Dec 2007 04:17:39 GMT

I want to make this.
I want a snow day.
I want my old room.
I want my old house.
I want someone to call.
do you believe she said that?
I said I hate myself and I want to die

Sun, 09 Dec 2007 01:23:04 GMT

if I was young I'd flee this town, I'd bag my dreams underground, as did I, we drink to die,
we drink tonight. far from home, ELEPHANT GUNS, let's take them down, one by one.
I really want to escape, through the looking glass, or a hedge, or in a rocket ship I don't care,
I just want to leave

I want total choas!

Mon, 03 Dec 2007 03:59:18 GMT

I went to national portfolio day this weekend down at the maryland institute college of art. the people really liked my stuff so I guess I can go to college. by the way I went to europe this summer, this is paris. I should probably post those pictures eventually.

I think things will be ok

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 03:49:58 GMT

I know this is horribly large, put together, and overwhelming. I think that's ok.

I really want to send christmas cards this year so if you want one leave me your address. I don't care how close or how far you live, it really doesn't matter, even if I see you everyday or have never spoken to you before. I'll screen the comments so creepers don't send you porn, once I figure out how to do that.

once again...

that is a frustrated keyboard smashing, not a fan-girly one. I can't think, eat, concentrate, focus, draw, articulate, function, paint, cut, paste, drink, breathe, sleep, exercise, play, write, create, clean, imagine, reason, visualize, picture, dream. I just can't.

all I want to do is runaway. far away. and not care. I want to runaway with patrick to his secret hiding place in cornwall, I could live there alone with a horse and ukele. but how do I get there? what road to be choosing? do I follow the stars? or the gypsy king? I recall when I was younger, there was a fire to travel the world and shine with passion, but now ambition shoots blank.
