so much to do, so little time. will do a more proper LA/SD aka my life through instagram update post when i get back from big bear this weekend. so excited. i guess i could talk about the weather.. how lucky are we to have such amazing weather in february? yup. i do however, miss san francisco a lot though. miss my family tons. been listening to kero one's welcome the bay (got to see that shit live too last week which was great) on repeat. but alright, time to snooze. take care

"what can i say? to dwell in dwellers dreams. there is hope scattered on the concrete, and black synthesis on the shoulders. i carry them."

finally heading to LA this weekend! i've always had a serious longing to explore the great and the bad and the normal on the streets of opportunity, ever since i was a child bumming on a different continent (europe). it all seems so fascinating and unreal. i don't know why. maybe the allure of it is just a sad fantasy. any suggestions for LA? really wanna go to the getty again.
but i gotta go, doing a shoot tomorrow :) and need to pack. i am kind of homesick too.
take care xoxo

not that i really spend that much time in a laundromat. ever. when i still had more digits in my bank account i would just buy more clothes.. quite stupid. or i'd wait till break and fly home and have my family do it for me. hahaha..so much for living on your own and pretending to be independent. i am also not quite sure why i brought my mug with me to do laundry..but at least it was nice and warm in there.
but here's to being done with the first part of midterms = let the weekend games begin.

ps. also thanks for all those who follow this blog, i appreciate it a lot :) this blog reached 1k followers the other day.

th' world was on fire, no one could save me but you

"This is the ultimate cruelty, isn't it? That I can talk and talk and to anyone listening, it's only air-- too rich a diet to be swallowed by a mundane world."

And this is why I don't do small talk. I came across this quote today and I just felt as it was everything that I have ever wanted to say but failed to put into words. So this one is for you, you who have asked me what I really felt, what I was really thinking that day, how I was really doing, and what I was really trying to do.

top- no idea, boots- steve madden

excuse the terrible writing in this post but i'm in class right now and have been failing at multi-tasking lately.
i guess it is a bit unfair that was 26 degrees today, when my best friend is freezing his ass off in hamburg. but then again, it is also quite unfair that i had to spend the whole day stuck inside a lecture hall. whateevvvs.
i have a shit ton of midterms next week, so this weekend is going to be a tame one :)

oh hey. this is where i currently reside. i woke up this morning and felt the sudden urge to clean my room. (the living room of our apartment is another story completely) i always tell myself before moving into a new space that i want my room's interior to be simple, minimal and clean, but somehow i can't live without plastering the wall with a bunch of random stuff; ticket stubs, poems, pictures and other shit. just look at it. look at it. sometimes i think that my room has an identity crisis.
right now, i'm wearing uggs, shorts, and a flannel and i don't feel like posting anything fashion related. it's weird, lately i find the whole concept of me posting outfit pictures of just myself, just, odd. i also don't have time, i think. i got another internship which i'm excited about and will probably post about someday, plus my new job is kinda fun too. now i just need to focus on my education.

also, happy chinese new year! im a bit bummed that i don't get to spend it with my family, but a ramen party with the roomies isn't too shabby either

cinéma vérité

the truth is that i never shook my shadow, every day it's trying to trick me into doing battle

shorts- zara, sweater- my sisters, earrings-f21, boots- dsw, bag- urban outfitters, belt -vintage

truth is, it's the last day of my winter break and i really don't want to go back. i love living in san francisco and being surrounded and inspired by the often times weird, sketchy, smelly yet unique characters on the street. i saw some street kids hanging on haight the other day and there's something so attractive about the idea of living with such abandon (though really what do i know about their existence? for all i know they could go home every night to their parents house in st. francis and decide not to shower as a fuck you to their parents). but i'm not complaining, at all. i think it is normal for us to seek broader horizons and more open spaces, which is probably why i was immediately attracted to this place. i remember driving past here when i worked as a golf caddie back in the day and always being curious about what it looked like from the top.

big whoop whoop to the lovely people from MTV who blogged about me here. it was quite a surreal and wtf kidn of moment, sitting at the dinner table and receiving a tweet from MTV and reading what they wrote about me. thanks so much!
