at this moment

i have just added a couple of new items to my shop! i'm kind of excited about these new finds i made & wanted to share the love : ) these two vintage plays are perfect for an afternoon of fun with your friends. i could just see it - with tea & fun costumes.

also at this moment i am loving this month's readymade magazine! so amazing. it has a whole section on planning mini trips & adventures. love it. (cellphone photo quality...)

what adventures do you have lined up?

hi! wow i've been really busy lately! i haven't had time to look at all of your awesome blogs, let alone blog on my own :/ lately my life has been looking like this photo (taken with my phone...so bad quality!). i've been working on homework whenever i have a chance. even with lunch : ) yummy lunch by the way! vegetable udon at a place called bento box (cute name!). it was super good.
so, grad school has been taking it's toll on me. but i've been pushing through! i just finished this semester's first term paper on environmentalism & religion. quite interesting. & i'm really loving that environmental sociology class.
ok, well i will try to blog more. & look on your blogs too! it's tough though...at least right now.
oh & last thing i want to tell you is that i've been watching a lot of korean tv shows on hulu lately...haha i guess some of my time has been going there lately. but i need some me time, so i'm fine with that : ) (oh & i ate the udon because after watching all of those korean shows i was craving some food like that...hehe.)
