The month of February has been tough. A close friend passing away, my work schedule is getting the best of me, I have no room for crafts in my cubical, I miss my Mom and sister, cars totally suck, my 19th birthday is next Sunday...birthdays suck, and i'm obviously a total and complete hot mess.

February has been an amazing month. My friend Dani passed away, and it was super hard to swallow. She's in a better place though, and I know our Savior has a plan for her. My job can be tough, but I have a job, and I love everyone I work with. My bedroom is a complete mess with no space, but i'm so thankful I have the comfort of a bed. I miss my Mommy and sister, but i'll be seeing them in two months. Cars suck, but i'm thankful I have one to get around in, and a job to get a new one. My birthday is next Sunday! I'm so thankful for this 19th year of my life! I'm obviously always a total, and complete, hot mess.

...I guess it's just how you look at things.

Till my birthday.
I'm really trying to be optomistic about it.
Something awful usually happens around this time.
..and the fact that I can fit all of the people I know on one hand in this new city doesn't really help.
Pity Party for sure.
This will be playing non-stop the next 10 days. Don't put it past me! I think this year I will play this full blast all night long and get drunk off of sparklingcider. yupp.

Avoiding reality...of lately:
Picture
Sunshine is probably my favorite thing to paint.
Picture
Inspired by beautiful Tayloe.

Just go with it.

"I saw the structured grid and pavement cutting through grass and i remembered the cold of winter running up the legs of my pants. I picked the nicest lawn and imagined the two of us rolling around down along the ground."
I love this movie..pigs and all. :)
 
I'm very aware that I suck at blogging sometimes. I'm sorry!!
There is a lot going on right now...and lately i've just been overwhelmed.
It's Thursday (I had to look at my calender to tell myself that) and I didn't do a Survey Sunday (big surprise)
So here ya go:

Something interesting about yourself:
I'm a conservative liberal at heart. I think i'm the only one who understands what i'm saying, no?
Oh and also, I say "no?" or "yes?" at the end of statements, a lot.

Favorite artist?
I went through a biiig Andy Warhol Pop Art stage...and I guess I still am in it. I love his work..and The Factory's lifestyles really intrigues me.
(watch Factory Girl!!!!)

Something unique about your appearance?
I have a birthmark right above my right elbow.
I forget it's there sometimes.
I have delicate hands,
I wear size 5/6 rings.
It's horribly frustrating to find rings that fit.
My mom finally found me the peeeeerrrrfect ring.
I wear it almost everyday.

Favorite clothing item?
WHAT?!?! I can't answer that.
My cardigans? My boots? My dresses/skirts?
That is tough.

Fun inspiration with the suurrvey:

So, a while back a fellow student in Style School, taught by Elsie and LA, messaged me about a site she thought I would be interested in: 
Picture
Hopecore.com is an awesome website with tons of great interviews with AMAZING bands! They also have an online radio that constantly has seriously good music playing.

February's issue makes my heart flutter since Bryce Avary is well, BRYCE AVARY! His iconic music, The Rocket Summer, has melted my heart since the very first EP I stumbled upon years ago.
Picture
Go check HopeCore out!
You won't be disappointed!

What's everyone up to?
I'm seriously wanting a peach smoothie right now..
*sigh* I'll grab one tomorrow. :)
p.s.- It's getting closer and closer for the opening to my shop!
So excited!

Recently, Netflix and I have become very close lately. I usually watch movies i've already seen and love. Laaame, I know..but that's me! :)

I laughed out loud when I watched this..then I did it...it was so fun!

It might be my new love??

Also; Happy Birthday Sonny Bono!

Anyone who can put a ring on Cher's finger for a few years is okay in my book.
