Garden

My last days in Tallahassee were extremely stressful with exams and such, so my friend Catalina and I took some downtime to take some photos. We went to this state park called Maclay Gardens. Now there were no flowers actually blooming in this garden so it was more grass and trees. Which was fine by us because we were just going to get away.

Song of the day:

Sad song

This may seem like a strange concept but I have always been interested in finding out what people's favorite sad songs are. These are not necessarily the songs that you listen to when you are sad. On the contrary it might be the song that you listen to when you are happy and can appreciate the song without it bringing you down.
Here were some of the answers I got:

  Cats in the cradle

 Wish you were here

Best ill ever be                                      

So followers..I know I have let you down. but feel free to leave your favorite sad song in a comment!

I think its safe to say that I am officially the worst blogger ever. The longer that I went without a post, the more awesome I felt it had to be. Well here it is, my un-awesome blog post just to break the silence.
What has happened since then:

It was my birthday! yay 21. On the day of my birthday my roommates and close friends went to a local mexican restaurant and got margs.

My roommate Casey and I :)

Then I had a Harry Potter themed birthday fiesta that weekend! Everyone dressed up Harry Potter and we had a blast!

The song of the month!

Magazine flowers

Here is a super easy and cheap way to decorate!

Magazine flowers-

What you will need:
Ruler or something square to use as stencil
Magazine pages
Glue ( I used hot glue because it was faster)
Something to use as a stem. I used straws because that is all I had and I think it gave it a little fun feel.

Depending on how big you want each petal, measure out a square from your magazine page. I used a frame to help me that measured 3.5" by 3.5"

Start with your square.

Fold paper in half

  Bring the outside corners up to touch the tip of the triangle. Here it is displayed sideways.

Again, fold the outside corners into the center

apply glue in between the creases when you fold them over. 

Take three or four completed petals and glue them to your stem. 

I fastened the stems together using a flower ring that I had, but really anything will do. 

This is really only if you want to make more than one / a bouquet.

Trendy

I am doing a project for my Editing/Writing/Media class about style as it pertains to composing. We are then supposed to remediate ( or use in another medium) the same main points. I chose to take the theme of style as your identity and convey that in people's personal clothing styles.

I had two friends of mine pose for me for the project.
Here are some of my favorites.
