It sparkles? I like it.

Graduating girls of Interaxon. Memories of alcohol, potato bread chaser, and girltalk girltalk girltalk. Because neurons that fire together wire together. LTP, baby! :)

Today, I frolicked around campus in a pretty dress and heels and took graduation pictures. And stumbled upon the most perfect motto for graduation on the Janss steps. :)

Complaints

I have an amazing life that I usually don’t take for granted. But I am also full of first world problems so can a girl just complain for a second?

- I haven’t slept more than 5 hours a night in over two weeks.
- Failing the “No Cry” challenge on Youtube multiples times does not help stabilize my emotions.
- 18 days and $937 dollars later, my car still isn’t fixed.
- I have a million emails to respond to, and then another million to send out.
- My planner is packed and scheduling around my schedule is the worst.
- Midterms midterms midterms.
- I see my boyfriend far too often on Skype, and not nearly enough in real life.

All I really want to do is go full-fetal and cuddle my pillow pet. Is that okay?

{Melrose Trading Post, West Hollywood}

Spent Sunday wandering Melrose Trading Post with good company under the blazing hot sun. Possible heat stroke aside, it was a lovely few hours spent browsing the vendor stalls and looking through eclectic vintage goodies. And pigging out on crepes and curly fries. Definitely warrants a revisit when I have my own place to decorate (someday).

{Hammer Museum, Westwood}
The Hammer is free for UCLA students, so I figured I should drop by before I graduate. Of the five art galleries, only two were moderately interesting, and pictures were only allowed in one. All good because I really don’t like understand modern art. Anyway, saw these suspended hearts and pretty much kind of totally fell in love. (They were in the gift shop.)

{Santa Monica Pier, Santa Monica}

Yesterday was a beautiful sunny-turned-hazy day, and the blue of the ocean blended ever so perfectly with the cloudy sky off in the distance. I spent an hour in the sand under the Santa Monica Pier with my bestie and my camera. Snapped pictures of the sunset, the barnacle-y underside of the boardwalk, and adorable children (of course). And let my you-just-walked-into-my-frame-and-COMPLETELY-RUINED-my-shot rage fly. Sometimes it just feels good to release, both shutter and rage.
