Upbeat Profanities

Although this song may be filled with profanities, the beat, the tune sucked me in.

F**k You
-Cee Low Green

SF, My next lover

Dear San Franciso,

One day in the future when New York and I break up, I think you will be my next lover.
I need to know more about you, and your neighborhoods, your culture, and your life.
You are so beautiful from the outside, yet the inside is a stranger to me.
San Francisco, we will meet again down the road.

Levi's

The jeans of my youth.

They seem to be making a come back, or at least have more creative appealing ads this season.

I remember a time when I would only wear levi's, and all other jeans were off limits.
Then somehow it seemed that other cheaper jeans were better, and the levi's made their way out of my collection.
Well this year the Levi's are back.
They even have a new design out specifically for curvy women, which most of us are.

Yeah for the come back!

Shopping Galore!

It seems these days I stay home to try to save money, but I end up spending a good portion of my days shopping online (rather than working on my Grad School Apps or GRE :( ).

I have found some great deals though!

If you have the money or time, right now is a great time to shop, a good deal of summer clothes are on sale and very cheap; as well as most websites seem to have huge sales going on.

Below are some of my favorite looks of "right now" as well as some items that are on my "wish list for the Fall"


1. Nine West - Vanished $109
Oxfords are super cute, I've wanted a pair for the past year or 2 and I think maybe this fall I will finally spend the money.

2. Kate Moss
Apparently she wore this outfit in the spring, but I think it is a great Fall outfit.
Maybe even if it were paired with some Oxfords :)

3. Reese Witherspoon
Simple & Classy
Anyone can wear this, its simple but looks so nice, you can wear it just about anywhere.

Whole Foods

Grocery shopping, well shopping in general, is one of my favorite pass times.
All the beautiful fruit and veggies, all the meats, the cheeses, the nuts, the juice...
So many possibilities in one place.

One of my favorite parts of my new apartment is the fact that I can go grocery shopping at Whole Foods. This whole foods is not only in a great location, but it has 2 stories. The upper deck even has a bridge from one side to the other (which is where I took this photo).

If you are ever shopping at Whole Foods, and need a recommendation for a snack I recommend anything 'Annie's brand' and the Whole Foods Hummus with pretzels, YUM!

Summer Work

I have worked at a gym (aka 'sports club') for almost a year now, and I have only used the facilities one time, how sad.
However after this summer school session is over (3 days) I plan on working out for the remainder of the summer, and potentially into the school year.

It appears that I have fallen into this Italian ring of people places and things (which I LOVE).
I have been asked to hostess for an Italian Restaurant for a few nights, followed by being asked to 'child sit' for 3 Italian children, and all I really eat is Italian food these days. I think I should convert. Beginning next week I will be catching up on my Italian speaking skills so lets hope all of these opportunities assist with that.

Journal vs Blog

Since I have re-instated my journal I have been having a hard time writing in my blog.
To top it off, I do not currently have internet at my apartment.

After speaking to Maria (Finding Eidothea) this week, I have realized that I need to start blogging again.
The new task of keeping up a journal and a blog may be challenging, but I think it will be good for me.

Stay Tuned

The Journal is being implemented again.
For better, or for worse.

Love, Hate, Life

I love my life,
I hate my life.
I miss my life,
I look forward.

Frank what were you thinking?

Today I took a trip over the Brooklyn Bridge, when we got to the other side we found this beauty...
The New Frank Gehry building is less than exciting. It sticks out like a sore thumb. Its quite awkward.

Below is the Building.
