Hello again.

Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that I'm ditching this blog. I've started a new one, everything is light, so that's where you'll find me now. I'll be posting mostly about art and photography, as well as a little about life in general. See you there.

amazing technicolor shoes

You know, having size 11 feet really isn't all that cool.

Especially now.

When these amazing shoes only go to size 10.

:(

he liked it, so...

He put a ring on it!

Being in love is freakin fantastic, everyone. 

And by everyone, I am referring to the five people who actually read my blog.

HEY LADIES!

Sorry that this blog has been so scarce as of late. (forehead smack) Basically all I do now is go to school, work, and plan/shop any time I'm free, aside from spending time with the man. 

Anywho, it's been a wild and fantastic five months, and knowing that I'm going to be hanging out with this lovely man for the rest of FOREVER is a very happy thought. 

un petit sidenote

I know, I know...I should be doing something far better with my time right now, but I'd just like to say something.

For the love, if you come in the drive-up talking on your cell phone, ignore me when I say hello and ask how you are, proceed to dump your checks in the drawer and roll up your window, then act irritated that you have to roll down your window again (heaven forbid) because I ask you what you'd like to do with them, don't look at me like I'm the one who has no tact.

Thanks.

well...

(gads, i'm so emo sometimes.)

So. I suck at blogging.

BUT!

I promise I will blog mucho mas over the break. (glorious, glorious winter break...)

Life is sooo crazy right now. I know people say that all the time, but LIFE REALLY IS CRAZY. If none of you hear from me in a week, I've decomposed either in the darkroom or sitting in front of my computer trying to write a beastly research paper.

Run, Forrest, run.

I've never considered myself a runner. Sure, I did the occasional run in elementary (creamed 'em), and even did cross country in junior high but that's as far as my running history goes. This summer, however, I decided to pick it up again. Then I decided about a month ago that I was going to train for and run the Salt Lake City Marathon next year. I downloaded this training schedule, and so far it's been pretty sweet. It's been really interesting to figure out how my body works when I run. I've learned that 3 miles is where my lungs really start to hate life. I've had asthma for about 10 years now...and to say the least it's been very frustrating. But I'm determined not to let it kick my butt. As of right now it's difficult to gauge just how well I'll be able to run the whole 26.2 miles, so I'm going to train for the full marathon the next 3-4 months, and then decide if I'll do the full or half. Next week I'll be doing the City Creek Cold Turkey 6k, woohoo!

the anthropologist

As if I needed another reason to love Anthropologie.

They've created a website that brings together some really inspirational people and highlights their work and creative processes. I am loving David Eustace's documentation of his three-week road trip with his sixteen year old daughter. The photographs and sweet letters are so real.

"We may not see it every day but life assures it is always there. Our skies may not always be blue, but our clouds are equally necessary to give us the balance we need."

-David
