eight line poem

jacket: lucky, shirt: thrift, jeans: gap (from like a long time ago) pins: sex pistols, ramones, and obama!

(featuring my dumb calculus textbook)

i'm slowly getting into the groove of SENIOR YEAR! I have fairly competent teachers this year so I think I'll learn a lot, and that's good. I love learning but not when people suck. With this outfit I was kind of channeling Lindsay Weir/80's british punk rock vibes and I think I like it. 

Today I started my first PSEO class (which is when I get to go take a class at the university for high school AND college credit) and it was so awesome. People in college are so much more mature and the class is way more in-depth and interesting than high school. So I'm pretty happy!!!

DIY book earringz

I made a random little shrine of stuff that I have recently acquired, including my Hunky Dory bowie record (ONE OF MY FAVES), 2 really good books (The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and the Mysterious Benedict Society), a random envelope thing, my pencil case that looks like an ice cream sandwich, a bowl peaches made for me, my nice new backpack and a lil framed photo of BOB DYLAN!!!! ♥♥

Labor day weekend was fabulous, by the way. My friend mags and I made pins together, and then we drove over to peaches' house and we all went to target for hair dye and twizzlers and came to my house to dye peaches' hair and it looks SO GOOD. we ate pizza and watched shrek 2 (ha ha) and it was a swell time. Peaches slept over and then we went on a picnic with our friend rosie and it was adorable!!!!! I love hangin with friends. then my parents had a dinner party and so I hid in my room and listened to classical music which is actually one of the most underrated things IN THE WORLD. just pretend like you're drinking tea in London. it's perfect. maybe I'm biased because I'm a classical violinist, but whatever.

here's some music I've been digging lately:

IT IS HOT. like, hot-hot. hotter than it was all summer. the sticky, gross kind of weather where you're glued to the few rooms in the house that actually have air conditioning boxes. since my brother left for college last weekend I had to move into his room because mine doesn't have AC. i'm gross and sweaty like 24/7 now. and what makes this even worse is that I have to go to SCHOOL and SUFFER. (actually my school is way over-air-conditioned and so it's freezing most of the time, but whatever).
But yeah, I started school on Monday and to be honest it's not as big of a deal as I was dreading. Maybe it's because I only have 4 classes (AP calculus, AP biology, chamber orchestra, and CIS writing!) and get to leave at 12:30. maybe it's because my expectations for this year are below zero and I literally don't give a damn about it anymore. either way, I'm enjoying my smooth transition from summer into school!! also: SENIOR YEAR! YEAH!!!!!!!! thank god.

I TOOK PICTURES OUT oN THE FRONT STOOP TODAY!!! it was fun. this is basically the most boring outfit but I was totally inspired by that one time when tavi wore a tape measure as a belt. she's perfect.
ALSO: I finally got my driver's license!!! my brother is letting me use his old pick-up truck! it's really ugly and huge but it's something!!! I drive it to school and I'm like the most badass bitch there ever was. her name is billie joe:

I know fall is coming really soon so what's better to send off summer than with a trip to the best place on earth, the STATE FAIR!! I took some really crummy pictures the other day:

everything at the fair is really retro and bright and summery and I LOVE IT.

to end this post I will leave you with one of my favorite songs of ALL TIME, The Lovecats by the Cure:

LOVE YOU GUYS xoxo
