Happy Father's Day

I want to wish my dad a happy father's day. He is such an amazing man and I feel honored to call him my dad. He is incredibly strong and supportive. Because of him I am the person I am today. Without him I could not have achieved any of my accomplishments and would not be doing what I am doing today. I know I do not tell him enough how much I appreciate him, but I could not do it with out him. Thank you dad and I love you.

Wanting:

Currently I am tyring to stay caught up with summer classes, study for the Praxis, work, make it to the gym, get enough sleep, and still try have some summer fun. So of course I procrastinate doing all of that by searching the internet for things I shouldn't be spending my money on. My current obsession is wooden replicas of cities. I have no need for them and no where to put them, but I love them. Let's be honest, if I had these I would play with them all the time.

London

Italy

Free Item!

If you love Coldplay as much as I do you should go and download the free album they are offering on their website. If you don't know who Coldplay is you should be ashamed and then go download the free album and fall in love with them. The album features live versions of their awesome songs. If you were as unlucky as I was and did not get to see them in concert you can close your eyes and pretend you are there. If you were lucky enough to go to their concert I hate you a little bit. Enjoy!

Artsy?

I am sure that most of my readers also read Val's blog and so you probably already know about this awesome application. I love Polaroids. They feel so vintage and you never know what the image is going to look like till they develop. Since I can't afford a real Polaroid camera the application will have to do. All you have to do is download the application, then drag and drop the photo on your computer that you want to convert into the camera. It makes the noises and pops out like a real Polaroid camera. Its all very exciting. Don't worry, your original picture stays intact in its original file. I think I have turned almost every picture on my computer into a Polaroid. I don't have the artistic skills like my friends do, but here are a few of my favorites.

The Colosseum

Venice

Lake Como, Italy


Florence

Prague


Paris

Dear Jamie Foxx,

Just because you played a singer in a movie does not mean you are one in real life. Please stop producing horrible computer synthesized songs like "Blame it on the Alcohol" and stick to what you are good at. Also you may need to deflate your ego about 99%. Thanks

Taste of her Cherry Chapstick

I have a major girl crush on this girl.



I wish I could I pull together outfits like she does, rock the thrifted and vintage pieces like she does, and overall be as cool as she seems to be.

Finals are near and I need these words of advice more than ever.

Pep Talk: With so much fun stuff around, how can you possibly concentrate on work? It's funny, we claim to be bored all the time- then when it's time to buckle down, suddenly everything else is interesting. You have to focus because this is important. If the thing that's hogging your attention is a hobby, a love interest, or an addictive televised phenomenon, I bet it will still be interesting when you do it/text it/watch it tomorrow. Study hard now and you can play hard later.
Today remind yourself: Focus!!
