lightness

One of my favorite times of the year is.. drum roll please... Ikea catalog time!! So this may make me a dork but I just love looking at all of the different interiors and trinkets that decorate a home. Personally, I definitely do not have the means to go on full interior design binges; however,it is fun to look and dream.

Lately I have been really inspired by clear, simple vases that hold nothing but water and a skinny plant. It gives a very raw and pure look. I am on a strict college budget and this is not a necessity so it probably wont be a new addition to my humble abode but one can still look right?


For now I will just make do with my lovely bamboo that I have been caring for these past 3 years.

the city of good living

The view by my house is amazing. I love standing there on that Crestview hill, looking out at the lights and the cars that look like insects running through the maze of streets. It is the peninsula, and I stand there looking at the bay that people are so proud to call their home. Make fun of those "bay" enthusiasts that call themselves gangsters as much as you want, they have a point - it truly is a beautiful place. I am not going to get '650' tattooed across my chest, but I will definitely "rep" the bay nonstop. I could stand there for hours just marveling at the place where I have spent the majority of my life.
I have driven the same route for 9 years (middle school, high school, all of my jobs), and every time I am surprised by the magnificence of that view. Now that I live in the East bay during the week and do not drive my car along these familiar streets, the view is an even bigger burst of surprise. I can drive these streets with my eyes closed. Sometimes I speed through the narrow Club dr. road just because I can. Sometimes I drive really slow, pissing off all the other cars, just to take a minute longer with that view.

Concrete Soundtrack

My heels are clicking against the cement. I own the cracks. Nothing can stop me.


Sometimes I walk around this strange city to a special rhythm. When I have a certain song pounding in my ears I am invincible. Who doesn't have a soundtrack to their life? For me it is a different one everyday. No matter what, the music sets my pace and I am happy for the moment. The world is moving around me but I am not part of the commotion. I am in my own world. I create my own reality as I move through space.


What made me feel alive today?

Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet With Butterfly Wings



despite all my rage I'm still just a rat in a cage.
