I really like the Built by Wendy fall 09 collection! It reminds me of church bells. What do you think?


I'm especially into the little black ruffled dress. I'm so getting it!

Day one

Today was my first day at my new jobby job. I can honestly say that all of my students are really amazing. There are some that have severe behavior problems, but I always have liked the bad ones. What I found to be extremely funny was that my students were really in love with my shoes. I didn't want to be too dressy nor flashy. So I wore my light brown ankle rubber shoes that I bought a year ago at Opening Cermony. During a read aloud they all kept coming up to my feet and touching my shoes! It was way cute! Now just imagine if I would have worn my Louboutins!

Apt makeover

Yesterday, I wrote about how I wanted to over haul my apt a bit, but was worried about what my bf Nick would think. Well, I showed him the choices and thoughts that I had. He said, no to the velvet curtains (sigh). Everything else was a YES! Living room curtains, bath curtain, towels,
bathmat and wallpaper for the kitchen. I'm hoping all of this will be done by end of September I also want our living room to have plants everywhere! My bff Ariana is moving to Seattle in a month (double sigh). She is giving me her amazing plants, which I will totally take very good care of. I really want Nick and I to have the most comfortable vintage inspired home ever! <3

Mini upgrade

I've been living in my apt for 4 years now. It is mos def home and really the only home I've ever been comfortable in. My ab fab bf Nick lives with me. He moved in 7 months ago. I love sharing my space with him, more so than any other guy I've lived with (there's been a couple). Since we live together I feel that it is only fare that we BOTH agree on mini upgrades for the apt. Sometimes my taste can be a wee bit girly girl. I don't want him to run out of the place! What is a lady to do?

Budget

So.... the other day I decided it would be a good idea to create a budget for myself. I have made some decisions. Here they are...

1. No more cabs! Maybe once a week. If you are out with me and I'm all like, "let's take a cab!" I am giving you permission to smack me! I think I probably waste around $ 250 a month on cabs. It's stupid! I rather use the $250 and buy a MJ sweater!

2. Brown bagging it! That's right. No buying fucking lunch or breakfast for me. Figure, that lunch comes to $10 a day. That's $50 bucks a week....$200 a month! Eff that!

I love to splurge! I rather it be on important items. <3

Birthday list!

My birthday is in about 2 months. These are the things I want........



For those cold winter nights.


I need to get back into vinyl...STAT!

Oh, Geez!

So it has been like a month since I've posted anything on this bad boy. A lot has happened! I got a job!! A real one! With a salary and health benefits. This is very exciting because I was a bit worried; not about paying rent or buying food. No! I was worried about how the hell I was going to afford my Marianne Faithfull fall 09 look! I expressed this to my boyfriend Nick after I got the job. He was not surprised by my statement. That is why he's perfect! Being that I have a new J to the O to the B! I splurged a bit and bought a pretty scarf from Bird. I love this store. I also got this amazing floppy hat from American Apparel. <3
