I’ve had Zanzibar (Billy Joel) on replay for two days… it’s irresistibly catchy and good… That’s the trouble with so much modern music: it just doesn’t require much technical skill, particularly in reference to guitar and voice, though guitar more so. But I digress (which is actually an inappropriate use of the word ‘digress,’ but [...]

11.02 // Discovery: @fakeAPstylebook

Stumbled upon this little gem of English geekdom (sort of) in my late night internet gallavanting…
@fakeAPstylebook
It’s a satire of @APstylebook, a twitter feed offering [hypothetically] helpful tips for journalism and such. Apparently newspersons everywhere have found this not so much insightful as mockable.

WARNING: xkcd is extremely addictive. One click* and you’ll be sucked into a vortex of geeky humor for hours…
*click: originally, I typed lick. Totally alters the sentence.

So I finally, finally ran what I should run during a race – 23:21. Actually still a little slower than I’d hoped, but hey, it’s a 40-second PR and I’ll take it. The weather: warmer than expected (low 60s), but doused with the usual rain and wind. Great race :)
And now a flow of fashion…

Well, folks, it’s that time of year again… and no, I’m not referring to the opportunity for seemingly the entire female teenage population of my town (minus a few – my friends and me) to dress as Skank-o-Holics and Whorealicious sexy policemen and what have you. Just for the record, I’ll be spending my Halloween [...]

Two months until Christmas!!!
Sorry, random burst of Christmassyness feeling.
Does anyone else get annoyed when tucking skinnies into boots? Booties, to be exact. I dunno. Sometimes it just bothers me, how they can rumple up unattractively or puff out a bit and make your legs look wider. Hmmm.
Wow, I just realized I am ready for bed. [...]
10.19 // crunch time

Today was a rather interesting day. It involved too small heels, too much subway, too much mundane talk, too much coach-to-runner drama, and too many donuts (two).
Spent the majority of the day – actually, I should calculate that to see if it’s true, but I’m too tired, so nope – in Lansing for some student [...]
10.10 // Everyday (Buddy Holly) Is Playing In My Head

Sniffle sniffle cough cough, the anthem of the season.
It’s one of those deceptive days – the sun shines brightly outside, filtering through the just-turned yellow leaves, the sky is blue, the clouds are wispy. I feel bad for staying inside and neglecting this beautiful fall day. But when I glance at the thermometer – 47 [...]

I am having one of those nights where all you want is a big hug from all your friends, just so you now that you have someone.
Some random stuff…

So it’s nearly midnight and I’ve just finished writing a cute but unbearably inane French story (about a ladybug and his adventures, if you’re interested). I am tired. Since school started, I haven’t had ANY time to catch up on Fashion Week(s), let alone blog or post outfits or do ANYTHING. I’ve completely missed London [...]
