decision time

flickrOn Monday I sat in the bowels of Zellerbach waiting for my acting class to start, fidgeting in my folding chair, sadly turning down Ben-jammin’s offer of Junior Mints by thinking of what a fatty-fat-fat I would be if I ate them, listening to conversations flying across the room about what show was this weekend and who was in it. The usual.Then our instructor arrived, and we started class b

chest monster

I always feel a little awkward wearing any of my Harry Potter t-shirts because 1) it's really geeky, and 2) there's a face popping out of my chest. (A la Harry's chest monster.)(I don't suppose the book reference makes this any less geeky.)Above, clear plastic headband: Claire's. Gray cardigan: Uniqlo. Harry Potter t-shirt: Hot Topic.

this is just to say

I think there's an episode of Hey Arnold! in which Mr. Simmons reads a poem to the class that's a parody of the William Carlos Williams poem about plums in an icebox, but using tomatoes instead. (Maybe.) In any case, they were delicious.Above, tomatoes and mozzarella from the Embarcadero Farmer's Market.

Seasonal shopping?

I have a question for all 2.5 of my readers.I know people change moisturizers and pile on scarves in the winter, and I know it makes sense to buy season-specific clothing like swimsuits for summer, but I've noticed that I find myself buying more secondhand items in the summer and more new stuff in the winter. Maybe it’s Christmastime consumerism that makes me crave new knitwear, new party dresses, and new shoes when it starts getting cold. Maybe it’s because people have more garage sales in the summer, or because I have more time to scour thrift stores when I’m not in school. I don’t reall

H&M purchase from a couple weeks back:It looks sort of fantastic, but when am I going to wear this?(Do you do that? Buy things you're never going to wear? I'm especially guilty of this for dressy dresses and high heels. Seriously, I need to stop pretending I'm a socialite who gets invited by expensive people to charity events where we eat huge organic salads and tiny pieces of filet mignon

As my apartmentmate and her friend were making pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and watching the Improv Everywhere video of pantsless people, it occurred to me - if I were ever to participate in Improv Everywhere's pantslessness, or if Berkeley had a pasty-skinned, tighty whitey version of UCLA's Undie Run, what would I wear?!My underwear drawer needs life.
