This is an unfinished image that I was going to put in my portfolio for tomorrow's professional mock interviews. However it printed out pixelated and that just won't work! I think I want to add a speech bubble coming from the hare's mouth saying "lets pretend we're bunny rabbits" which is a reference to my earlier post about that song....and its not a bunny rabbit its a hare..get it get it??

On a completely different topic I've been thinking of getting some more ink, I just have officially run out of ideas...well kinda. Maybe a black cat? Maybe a pretzel? A lot of people don't like the pretzel idea but hey I love salt and pretzels are my second favorite food behind papas fritas.

If I look tired and sketchy its because I am. I don't know what it is about this quarter at school but I've just been feeling so lackluster lately. I have mysterious grime under my nails and makeup sliding down my face. I just want to take baths and read books and not have to worry about anything...will this ever happen?

My latest mantras: March will be here before you know it and if you don't lose your mind you'll graduate by Christmas.

If you don't lose your mind you'll graduate by Christmas. If you don't lose your mind you'll graduate by Christmas...

Also, send more post cards (thats what the picture of Lincoln is) your friends & loved ones will appreciate it, its a dying art and needs a resurgence!

I'm forever on the hunt for great new scents and I found this perfume that I had been pining after for a while called My Place or Yours Gina by a company named Benefit. I love it, it has a nice girly scent with musky and spicy undertones. Not to mention the bottle is beautiful! My momma bear sent this to me along with the mascara which after a few applications isn't too shabby either. Now, I just need somewhere to go where I can wear it because I'm not about to waste smelling pretty for work! Maybe next I'll post a picture of my perfume collection next, it's starting to get a little out of control...but in a good way!

Would you?

I'm so tempted to drive to Cincinnati on the 19th and stay overnight just so I can see Aaron for a night. I mean shit its only 5 hours but at the same time, I'd have to take off of work on Saturday and Sunday which kind-of sucks because I'm still so new there I don't want to test the waters. I'm leaning towards worth it, I mean you only live once.

The Magnetic Fields

I've been drunk doodling lately and I've had this song stuck in my head for days. It reminds me of Aaron who I miss tons and tons. I just got home from work and I'm going to soak my feet in this really nice and fairly expensive bath salt that smells like red currant. Which reminds me, now that I'm making some money I need to buy shoes for Kim's wedding and have a shopping spree at Lush :) I WANT TO TAKE A BATH WITH YOU BB EVEN IF WE'RE SMUSHED IN!

Tweaks


And just to give my new blog a recent picture of me while I still try and figure this thing out, here yah go! Apologies for the dry cracked lips and the tired eyes its the weather and the lack of sleep :)

Moleskine

I titled this blog after a doodle in my very beat up moleskine. On the other side is an ongoing list of bands that I need to download when I finally get a computer to call my own. In Chicago we just had a really bad blizzard and I've been cooped up in the house for two days, I've done a little homework and a lot of snacking I really want to go out and enjoy beers at a bar.
