Disco Gems

Pardon my crude animation of these gemz (namely rubyrosas, diamoniques, amethystletoe and rose quarts). Also, feel free to stare at them while listening to Solange. In a matter of seconds you will start to realize that the animation doesn't really match the beat and then you'll be like OMG I'm getting a headache. I'm gonna get back to my task list and work for 7 straight  hours. And this is how I inspire productivity.

Wow.

Their outfits are Mad Men inspired because I watched a lot of that yesterday.

A Perspective on Dogs

Old Cowboy

When I was a kid, my dad (whose childhood nickname was also Cowboy) showed me how to make a cowboy out of numbers. To this day, I still think it's one of the most genius things I'd ever seen. Show this to some young folks you know. I'm pretty sure they'll be astounded.

Fashion = Function: Anna Wintour Hair

I worked in fashion for a little bit so I know a thing. One thing.

Have a Wintour wonderland of a weekend! Okay, okay, I'm done talking.

The Willow Tree

Mona Lisa Smile

After Steel Magnolias had finished and since I had also previously watched America's Sweethearts, Netflix Instant suggested another relevant flick. I did not watch this because having spent so much time these past couple of days watching Julia Roberts movies only one image came to mind.

Loose Thoughts on 80s Movies: Steel Magnolias

I watched the movie for the first time ever this past weekend. This is what I thought of it:

This post exists because I have to force myself to stop thinking about the name Molly Ringworm.

Happy weekend, you guys!

Thoughts on Rain

For as long as I could remember, rain used to have a direct correlation to my happiness. Whenever the weather was bad, I would feel trapped, sad and uncomfortable. Then I visited the Portland Japanese Garden on a rainy day. How could something this beautiful exist? Oh, right—rain. This is not to say I prefer it but I get it. Sometimes we look too deep within ourselves we lose sight of the things in front of us.

Non-Apocalyptic Vacation

Way back when I wrote a post about a vacation dilemma. A friend and I were debating between a trip to Jamaica or Morocco. After taking a step back, reevaluating the reason for our trip which is the celebration of life, having survived the Mayan apocalypse, the signs were never more clear. No offense. I would love to visit Jamaica and Morocco but now they seemed a little irrelevant. Maybe next year? But more importantly, let's focus on this beautiful, pre-Columbian, Mayan wonderland known as Tulum, Mexico. There will be history lessons and environmental awareness all from the comfort of a mobile device while sitting on the beach, I'm predicting. See you in less than two months!

Post-Apocalyptic Vacation

I woke up that morning thinking, "Oh this again." "This" meaning life. The apocalypse did not take us and we are obviously alive. What better way to celebrate life than with a little vacation to somewhere no less than the best? My friend and I are in the process of planning a trip for this February or March. However, with great ideas come great dilemmas. We are torn between a resort vacation in Montego Bay, Jamaica and a guided tour of Morocco. They are both so great in their own ways especially in the dead of winter. And so I made an illustrated list of pros and cons of each country.

We will sleep on this in cold, cold Brooklyn and should reach a verdict this week.
