my abode

it is pretty amazing what alone time can do for me.
if i can get a solid 45 minutes per day all by myself,
not looking at anyone, talking to anyone, listening to anyone (or anything, really).
i'm a much happier person.

sometimes i just need to let my energy bar fill back up, you know?

the white house has been really good for that.
our room is L-shaped, so I have a secret nook all to myself.

here i sit on that yellow bed,
writing my zombie script
(well, blogging while i'm supposed to be writing my zombie script),
tucked away where no one can see me and i can see no one.

I only live here for 2 more weeks.
white house, you have been good for my introverted-ness.

stoop sitting

doing my homework on the porch today. yeah, we have a couch out here. yeah, it's so ghettoooooo.

i'm totally a stoop sitter. 

it probably seems silly. 

like you're not doing anything or getting anything done.

but you are.

it's good for your heart.

our white house

pre-christmas decor explosion. it's looking festive here now.

i think my hair is blonde until i stand next to olivia.

and i think my hair is brown until i stand next to the rest of them.

hair color identity crisis. who am i!?

things that happened

i was caught in the act of eating toast on the stairs.

the bell tower started playing the harry potter theme RIGHT when i walked under it today. magical.

i bought a lot of feminine-type products today.

and instead of the cashier saying, "how are you today?" he said "how are you feeling today?"

ha. ha. ha. 

and here are some videos that really completed my weekend:

1 // 2 // 3

our baby

we found him in the parking lot. his body is broken and he's sad.

we have him out on our porch right now. be free, baby bird!

update: he died. at least he passed with his friends around him.

welcome to my room

there will be no jumping on the bed this year.

there may be more lame self-timer photos though, so brace yourselves.

my corner...

the first photo of my new abode.

it feels like a chick-flick or something... living in this cute old house.

like, am i really cool enough to be living here?

and when i say old, i mean old. this house was built long before electricity was invented.

extension cords everywhere.

the white house

this is the ooold house i'm living in this school year. excited to go back to p-town with my gals. excited to actually be in my major and not taking ge classes anymore.

but summer's not over yet. i'm going to enjoy my last month of sleeping in, working (and not being in school at the same time), watching olympics and friday night lights episodes until the wee hours, mama's cooking, having a car, and being so lazy all the time.
