Indie Shit

Taken from Tongue Like Electric, Eyes Like a Child

I got the glasses and now I got the hair.  Now all I need is the style and the hours of sitting around in coffee shops, acting apathetic, and reading all the time.  But I don't want to do that.  I like being my skinny-jeans-and-a-tee-shirt-wearing self while I'm silently worrying about my road test and the fact that I cannot, for the 3rd or 4th week in a row, not shower at the gym because I won't be going there to get my daily sweat on.  But I don't want to be an urbandictionary or a yourscenesucks cut-out definition of an indie chick.  Just because my face vaguely looks it, I'm still myself.  And I still barely resemble my ID picture.

I'm Being An Idiot

Taken from There is no shortcut to a dream

As the photo suggests, I am almost up to my neck in things I cannot even fathom have returned to my mind.  I want someone to pull the plug on it.  So it can go down to a much more manageable level.  I'll be better tomorrow.

I See How It Is, Computer

Taken from dirtylittlestylewhoree

Technology fails.  And see that pun I did in the title?  Yeah. Or a reference.  I think that's a reference.  But seriously.  Or technology doesn't fail.  Commercialized technology fails.  People who know the industry and know the coding do much better than the kids who buy their stuff pre-made.  And it's a struggle between those who want to do harm and those who just want to surf the web.

Wub WubWubWubWub Wuuuubbbbbbbb

The lights, the music, the boys; there were SO many pretty boys, I was just astounded by all the pretty in one place.  The venue was beautiful, clearly had that gorgeous vintage feel, the mesh of the old with the modern...although, I could say that my outfit fit the mood, but not entirely.  It is something I need to work on, but not something horribly difficult to fix.  And it does not matter to me that I did not talk to any of the pretties; I just really wanted to dance.

Expectations

Taken from :1 of 78

Dressed to impress.  Heels making me above-average height.  Makeup to accentuate everything I love about my face (my face).  Accessories that sparkle.  A new set of frames to call more attention to my eyes.  Lipstick to make my lips look sultry.  A new top.  A new venue and new dancing.  I want to dance my toes off until an hour my parents deem unholy.

Playing With The Puppy

Taken from Believe in yourself.

Today I went over to my friend's house and saw the sweetest thing.  It had eyes full of joy and promise.  It had been rescued by my friend and her family from the darkness of a shelter.  Her name is Eva and she is the sweetest thing.  And we wandered around the city a lot.  So I took the opportunity to take pictures.  And once again procrastinate on making an appointment for a driving lesson.

Colorful Fruits

Taken from Time is ever Fleeting.

Strawberries.  Raspberries.  Cherries.  Avocados.  Watermelon.  Cantaloupes.  Melons.  Bananas.  Blueberries.  Blackberries.  Lemons.  Tomatoes.  Peppers.  Grapes.  Zucchini.  And other things with visible seeds.  They make diets easier.  And more delicious.  And add a layer of flavor to the blandest of things, like unflavored, no fat, unsweetened yogurt.  I try to eat them as much as possible.  Even though my parents do not believe me.

Blog Announcement (R.P.)

I’m moving all the outfit stuff to my LookBook.nu page.  But I’ll still keep posting them on twitter and tumblr.

This is mostly because I got a tripod and can take pictures of myself and my outfits more easily.

I Wanted to Wear My Vest (B.O.A.)

On a birthday shopping spree with my mom, I bought a wonderful vest from Free People that I am in love with.  Since it wasn't too hot out today, I gave it a test run and I am in love with it.  Also, it was quite sunny today so I wore my hipster glasses because they have a 400 UV and are awesome sunglasses.  I felt really cute. But feeling cute was a little distracting when I drove today.  But honestly, I just dislike driving.  A lot.

The tank top is from Banana Republic, shorts from American Eagle, shoes are Converse from a thrift store, the bracelet from Lord & Taylor, and the glasses from Urban Outfitters.

My Birthday (B.O.A.)

Well for my birthday, I went to brunch with my parents and I wanted to look cute.  So I wore this outfit and later got a tripod for my camera. As a result, I will be posting more outfits more often.  I do not want to make a separate blog for it, but I might have to double-up on entries.

The top is from American Eagle, the scarf from Lord & Taylor, the jeans are BDG through Urban Outfitters, and of course I wore shoes which we sandals by Steve Madden girl for DSW.

As Long As I Still Have Free Time

Taken from Time is ever Fleeting.

I am going to vent my boredom and other random annoyances and random inspirationals on this blog.  My muscles ache, I can barely bring myself to do anything because of the tiredness.  Although, figuring out how to get more energy is a must.  I am 19 and that means I have more access to fun things in night life.  But I also want to do wholesome, creative things I cannot do amidst classes, such as collages and artworks.  I think I shall get started on one right now.  And take more photos.  Definitely more photos.

It's Been 19 Years (And Counting)

Taken from la dolce vita

So I'm 19, and I like being excited for my birthday.  Because celebrating another year of existence, at least for me and all my various illnesses and allergies and random incidences, is a pretty big accomplishment.  But I like where I am now a year and a day after high school officially ended.  I found a very fun, hip, smart group of kids to hang out with.  I met a few people who I grew close to, you know, the types that you always want to talk to.  I reconnected with one of my best friends.  I survived freshman year of college.  And I managed to change majors.  God know what'll happen this year, but I am ready for it!

My Body, She Aches

Taken from the pursuit of happyness

All this working out.  And no visible results.  Well, that's an utter lie.  My stomach is harder, my calves have absolutely no fat on them, but I'm still insecure with my thighs and legs and they ache a lot.  They say no pain without gain, so I'm hoping these aches are signs of progress.  And I really want to sleep and take a day off, but I must keep going.  I have spinning today.  And I'm going to a class and a run on Friday to make up for not working out over the weekend due to a graduation, a housewarming party, and my own birthday.  Excitingness.

Blog Schedule (R.P.)

Three times a week.  I don't know when yet.  But seeing my next semester schedule, it'll probably be Tuesday, Thursday, then either Saturday or Sunday.

Comatose

Taken from the pursuit of happyness

People who are fans of Breaking Benjamin, no.  Just, no.  I'm talking going to the gym, working out heavily for an hour, and not being able to think or breathe afterward.  I want to be tiny.  Like, actually be the size of a child.  Okay, maybe not.  That would make every dude I know a pedophile.  But still.  I am working my ass off that I feel comatose and come back to life eventually.  I was tired to the point that, I laid in bed, playing "Yankee Bayonet" for 2 hours and then met up with my programmer friend.  Good day.

Preparation

Taken from impio

I sit down to do it.  To review everything I need to know for next year.  And I go at it for a good hour, getting super excited that maybe I'll understand something and do well next year.  But then I realize it's summer.  And then I get all sad.  I should be out on a Friday.  I kind of want to go do a work out.  But once again, it's Friday and I've already worked out.  I miss college and having friends not being so far away.

Spinning

Taken from Tequila Always Helps

My endurance hasn't been tested this hard since I went to tennis camp.  My entire body does not exist right now.  During the workout, I wanted to die after 10 minutes.  And had 35 to go.  But with the music, the enthusiasm, and everyone else just doing it...the motivation was incredible.  And I want to go back.  But after I fix my knee.

Priest (M.R.)

Taken from Google

I found Priest  to be a perfect summer movie.  It does not require much thinking, has a fun plot, and awesome explosions and fight scenes.  I am a fan of pretty mindless vampire-related action movies, but this pretty much took the cake.

Imagine putting together a horror movie about dystopia, mixing in an action movie, adding elements of Van Helsing, throwing in a Western, and add in vampires and that's the movie in short.  I had a lot of fun seeing it with my friends, but not sure if it is worth the cost of 3D.

Rating: 6/10

Summer Reading

Taken from la dolce vita

I want to read this summer.  I want to read a lot.  Something like ten books all summer.  Or something.  I want to get my literacy on.  So when people approach me, I can have something really unique and awesome to talk about.  Like how much I liked Dune or how quirky Super Sad True Love Story was.  Or maybe I didn't like a book.  So I can talk about them with the same criticism I do my music.  And to not sit on my butt all summer.  Well, sit on my butt doing nothing.  Amendment!
