Ohhhhh Tumblr and Facebook

My friends always ask me, how do you procrastinating so much? What do you even do? and my answer is always the same "...you know..Tumblr and Facebook."
I recently got both and have been sooo addicted, which is also part of the reason I haven't been posting here as much. I just don't have time to procrastinate with this when I procrastinate with Tumblr and Facebook so much. Basically I'm procrastinating from my normal modes of procrastination...yeah, the last few weeks have been pretty bad. Anyway, I have about 6 posts lined up for this as well as four outfits I still need to photograph and one drawing I need to color in in photoshop. So I'm gonna try to take some photos of outfits today, edit some photos, work on my drawing in photoshop and do some more of my drivers ed. Basically procrastinating from doing my homework, but I feel like I'm doing something productive in the process..much more productive than stalking people on Facebook/chatting with friends I literally talked to about an hour ago. And it's already 4:30 AUGH! How will I get these things done? SUPER HUMAN POWERS WHICH I TOTALLY POSESS. Let's get this started...yeah..so that whole thing where i was gonna do all those things? Yeah, instead I spent all day on facebook/tumblr/ifunny so I didn't actually get anything done that I said I was going to do. So now this post will have to wait until tomorrow.
Sigh...I have no self motivation.

A few weekends ago (a few days before I shot these photos) I went to the White Elephant Sale in San Francisco. It was AMAZING! I found this pretty much everything worn here there. The sweater, the belt, the bracelet and the bag were all from there. I also bought some old postcards as well as another shirt. All for the low low price of $32. Which, if you think about it, is super cheap for all that I got.
Anyway, school's been crazy with track and also just work, but I'm trying to keep this updated! Sorry for my absence of late...
I had a mini-photo shoot at my grandparents' house this weekend, so that'll come up soon :)

English Professor

Something about elbow patches make me feel like a college english professor. The one that looks over her glasses sternly and says words like "satirical" and "allegory" or talks about the clever conceit Omelas and how it speaks to the human condition. Or says things like "the denotation of a word almost always contradicts the connotation, that is, if you are judgmental like me."  The one who talks about how neologisms ruined the english language and how her student's anaphoric syntax is lowering her essay grades. Or talks to another student about how amazed she is with her pathetic fallacy and what an ingenious Hamarita she thought up for her protagonist.

Tights Like Stomata.

Eh. I don't really feel like writing a lot at the moment. 

I'm writing journal entries while listening to Bright Eyes...resulting in the most angsty journal entires that I have ever written. I'm still listening to Bright Eyes, so I'm gonna leave you with these photos before I write some embarrassing, angsty shit on here that I'll regret later. So yes, photos of my stomata tights.

CTOM 2 (January)

Here's the second creative thing I did this month that was not an outfit.
I don't know if you've realized in previous posts, but I am obsessed with eyes (as you can see here, here, and a billion other places as well) Drawing them, taking pictures of them and...just everything. I think eyes are absolutely the most beautiful things.
Anyway, here's a drawing I did of an eye. Enjoy :)

Summer In Winter

I wish it were summer right now. And due to the crazy hours of Bye Bye Birdie rehearsal this weekend I missed all the lovely summer weather that was going on this weekend! :( :( So I channeled my I-just-missed-a-beautiful-sunny-weekend-only-to-have-it-be-freezing-on-the-day-that-i-get-to-actually-go-outside-and-why-is-summer-so-far-away-and-why-do-my-teachers-give-homework feelings into this outfit. Unfortunately my summery vibes did little to quash the hatred that I felt for the lovely weather being  on the one weekend I actually HAD to stay indoors, as, instead of sending off glowing waves of heat to everyone around me as I had imagined, I sat shivering in the corner of the room wishing I was wearing more clothing. It's alright though, because I love this shirt. SO much. And that's all that really matters, right?

CT 276 Either a Cloud-Like Wonder or a Day-Dream in Lace

Feeling lazy in the morning...and in the afternoon, and all day at school...and pretty much all the time is the bane of my existence.
I have got the 2nd quarter  blues. It's not quite far enough into the school year that I've got this burst of energy like at the last 100 meters during the mile, and it's not early enough in the school year for me to be excited about school, like that first bit of the mile where you deceive yourself into believing that it will be easy. I don't know what is with all the running analogies...I'm probably thinking about it since I haven't exercised in literally 4-5 months. Anyway, 2nd quarter (well, now it's 3rd quarter) and after barely missing a 4.0, I hoped I would get a very strong work ethic to actually do my homework so that this would not happen again....however
Being on here, you have probably realized that, in fact, no. I am still starting my homework ridiculously late. FML. I have no self motivation.
And now I must away to my three hours of Bye Bye Birdie rehearsal. Sorry to be so whiny, to make up for it, here are some pictures of a cozy and lacy outfit I wore for my first day of finals
