This is Sylvie (with her dog Nomi), and I have had her since February. She's quite spoiled. I will get her a friend or two later on this year. Right now, she's all that is keeping me sane, although others beg to differ. :-D

My life so far, at twenty-five, is defined by soft-addictions. There's no real purpose to it right now. All I see are crooked trees, track homes, Panda Express and Starbucks everywhere. Although I never really liked living in Stockton, I kind of miss the farm fields and dirty neighborhoods. Real city life beckons me, but I really like the stillness ( Read more... )

Backpacking through Asia and Europe sounds romanticized, although I realize the dangers of me being a woman and traveling alone in foreign lands.

California was one of them in the episode I saw. What I learned was that this wonderful state has over thirty-six million people living here, and this is not ( Read more... )

Math can suck my figurative balls.

Walking to the bus stop after school, I saw the MOST AMAZING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE:

A hawk swoop down and landed on a bush. I heard a small cry as smaller birds flew away. The crying stopped and the hawk devoured its prey. Wow. Amazing stuff. I would have never expected this in ghetto suburbia, unless it was metaphorical or something.

I like skinny jeans and (long) leggings. Christina Aguilera, Paris Hilton, and Gnarls Barkley are kewl in my world. Lindsay Lohan makes up most of my conversation. One year ago, I started watching reality television and have not watched anything else since. Yes, I have become completely lazy with trying to be pretentious.
