Havin' A Summah

In anticipation of summer I was thinking about all of the things I hope to accomplish and decided to compile it all into a lovely little list. So here goes nothing!

• read most of the books for my fall classes, which includes a little bit of Tennessee Williams and Gustave Flaubert
• yoga class, relieve stress
• celebrate my 21st birthday in style!
• see Nicki/Britney in concert
• Beach it up with my baby
• save money/spend money appropriately

My Heels Are Killin Me

So I have approximately ONE day left of classes. Like, on a serious note, CAN I GET A HALLELUJAH? I thought Spring 2011 at the University of Maryland Baltimore County was going to be the death of me. But, thankfully, I am still breathing and perfectly mobile. Not only am I mobile but I'm feeling so good. I really feel redeemed. Hard work really does pay off people. I learned a lot this semester. Time management is key, procrastination is so unnecessary, stress will come at you from all different angles, and comfortable shoes are never understated. Walking around campus you learn some life lessons. Seriously flats are forever.

This weekend is going to be so lemony. I'm hanging out with Michelle on Friday night, Saturday I'm going to knock out my final project for Asian American Studies, and Sunday is the Arbutus Craft Festival. Hopefully the weather forecast of rain showers doesn't rain on my parade!

And on a side note at school today I saw like 500 girls wearing flower dresses, 501 including myself. Girl you cannot find a solid print to save your life!

Get it!

Indie Biatch

A recent trip to the Columbia Mall (recent meaning like 4 hours ago) with Michelle left me wondering how come all Forever 21 dresses make white girls look like indie bitches? Seriously. Florals are everywhere, don't get me wrong I LOVE FLORALS, but it makes all relatively cute girls look like wannabee Nylon Magazine cover girls. Every dress in H&M looks reminiscent of something you would find at the local Goodwill. It's hard to escape the indieness being sold in stores these days. Remember those dresses with the elastic waist band (brought to my attention by Michelle)??? Those were the only dress choice for a while. Damn, can I get a something a little less restraining? Oh and remember the empire waist dresses (a.k.a. preg shirts)?? Those went out of style real fast. How can certain things become mass produced overnight? And so quickly? At the end of the day, floral is forever. And maybe I secretly want to be a Nylon cover girl indie bitch. And maybe I just don't know what to make of all of this. Just let me be myself.

Did I mention that I am pondering buying FLORAL DOC MARTENS. That is such an oxymoron. But nonetheless I am totally considering their relevance in my wardrobe. P.S. They are so relevant.
