Catch up
So much has happened in the last few months and I’ve been dying to a) know where things are leading and b) write about it here. I guess most importantly: I got a job! The Monday after graduation, back in May, I started interning four days a week at a large tech company with an […]
Two weeks
Somehow, I’ve already been in D.C. for two weeks. It feels like the clock’s hands have been spinning double time, and I expect that the rest of my time here will continue to feel the same. It’s both energizing and overwhelming, being so conscious of time, trying to make the most of every day. Limits […]
Made in the shade
I can’t say I’ve taken adequate advantage of my pool this month, or of UT’s truly spectacular on campus pool, either. But I did get a cute swimsuit for $26, and I’m making a pretty killer summer jams playlist, so I’m calling this summer a win. (image links to all sources on Polyvore. The shoes: […]
Nesting 2.0
“Make your home as comfortable and attractive as possible and then get on with living. There’s more to life than decorating.” —Albert Hadley After all of the drama and exhaustion of my move in August, I hit a wall about three days after move-in. Too much stuff, too little space for it, one couch too […]
Writers are people who write
Last Friday night, I went to the opening of Futureland, the new exhibit on Norman Bel Geddes at the Harry Ransom Center on campus. Bel Geddes was an industrial designer, set designer, all around “forward thinker,” and the event was a lot of fun. Especially fun since I won the tickets. There were futuristic cocktails, […]
Recently
+ The Moveable Type Truck made a stop in town two Fridays ago for just a couple of hours. My sister and I hustled down there to meet Kyle on the tail end of her ten month tour of the U.S. We were lucky to catch her on one of her last few stops before […]
the joy of books
Three of my favorite things: books, stop-motion animation, and color coding. Enjoy.
Domino?!
I know this is going to be all over the design blogs, since peeps are still obsessed with Domino almost 3 years to the date when it printed its last issue. But I don’t care. Nothing even close has come around since. And because I just saw this and I AM PSYCHED. Magazine hoarding be […]
The thinking room
Have you ever heard of people calling the bathroom The Thinking Room? I used to think it was super weird (I still do) but I’ve been thinking about the bathroom lately. Yes, this is odd. Perhaps it was driven by my too little too late attempt at buying some Missoni from Target bath towels. I’m […]
Study tools
When one is faced with studying for an exam one does not wish to take, at least new paper products provide a little relief. GRE. On Monday. Wish me luck. (back to re-learning algebra)
I like writing, photography, reading, music, design, typography, paper products, days in the seventies and sparkly snow, Spanish wine and cans of PBR. I spent a year in Córdoba, Spain, working as a
