san francisco

first ...

we had a long weekend off from school and decided to take a spontaneous roadtrip to san francisco!

there may have been a little rain, but it was beautiful and so much fun seeing the sites ... china town, chinese new years parade, the painted ladies, haight and ashbury, duboce park, peir 39, fisherman's warf, hyde street, and tandum biking the golden gate bridge. i am in love with this city! every time i visit it, i fall in love with it all over again. plan = live in san francisco ... seriously i am doing it. life plan.

please watch & enjoy

can't wait

Through a great deal of phone calls, and a lot of praying, I have recently made some very big decisions. I can't tell you about any of them yet, but needless to say, the near future is going to be very exciting.
I have never been so happy and excited!

a take away

i love this.

"Every week, we invite an artist or a band to play in the streets, in a bar, a park, or even in a flat or in an elevator, and we film the whole session. Of course, what makes the beauty of it is all the little incidents, hesitations, and crazy stuff happening unexpectingly. Besides, we do not edit the videos so they look perfectly flawless, instead we keep the raw sound of the surroundings. Our goal is to try and capture instants, film the music just like it happens, without preparation, without tricks. Spontaneity is the keyword." -la blogotheque director

christmas at college

i walked downstairs last night to a sweet surprise in the family room ... our friend surprised us by buying us a real christmas tree/ setting the tree up in our house. all the roommates were so excited that we turned on christmas music, made hot chocolate, and stayed up until 3 am hanging out by the tree.

it's going to be a good christmas this year
