♫ “Towers (Stop the Car remix)” – Bon Iver. Lately the weather here has gone from low/mid 40s to plummeting low 20s in a matter of days. As if I don’t layer 365 days a year, I feel myself becoming a woolly cocoon with each passing day. I own one (partial) down coat, but it’s a […]
Breakfast is my favorite meal-type of the day — but during the weekday I hardly get a chance to eat breakfast foods in the morning (I usually make breakfast for lunch, and more often than I’d like to admit I’ll make breakfast for dinner, too). Today was a slow and sunny morning, despite being my […]
Over the past few months, my mom and I have been preparing to move from our house to a smaller apartment. We’ve lived in our current house for 13 years, but in order to prepare for my big move down to California after I graduate, we felt that it’d be good to downsize early. This […]
As the chilly Seattle winter continues on (it’s been staying around 25F – 40F this whole season!), I’m constantly reminding myself to drink plenty of water and to stay moisturized. I have incredibly sensitive, acne-prone, combination skin, and having a lot of intense skin problems all my life, the kind of makeup I put on […]
Every now and then (or, well, maybe every day…) I love flipping through my catalogue of photos I’ve taken over the years and reminisce about the things I’ve captured. Lex over at Robot Nights surprised me with a copy of Adobe Lightroom 4 for my birthday (thank youuuuu ;~; seriously what even!) and I’ve been […]
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ After my photo adventures with robotnights, we went back to his place to check out comparisons of our camera bodies. The difference was, well, pretty significant… Significant enough for me to decide to upgrade my camera body after having Amelia (my rebel xsi) for 5 years! She’s going to a great […]
Due to a crazy allergic reaction to a spray dye I used on a costume I worked on over the span of a week, my (very sensitive) skin developed dermatographism. This is a condition where light pressure on my skin creates a very itchy, red, raised welt in the shape of whatever was pressed, scratched, […]
Wooooo, kicking off the 2014 con season with a con I only recently started attending — Anime Los Angeles (ALA)! It was held Jan 10 – 12 at the Los Angeles Airport Marriott Hotel. This is my second time attending ALA, and it’s definitely the smallest, most chill and relaxing con I’ve been to! hahaha. […]
Our last installment of photo days ended in Beverly Hills, on Rodeo Dr. We finally managed to drag ourselves outside during non-Vampire hours and headed North! The cool thing about going to all these places is that I’m (finally) learning the SoCal map. 🙂 Took some test shots in front of the sun! After a […]
Today we woke up late (again, as usual, this is nothing new, etc etc) – at around 2PM? Jeez. On our next photo adventure, we picked The Grove and Melrose. I’d been to the Grove before with family, but only to walk through and hang around Barnes n Noble’s. Lex got his haircut before leaving, […]
