sup estela

got grub with emily and jacque on friday afternoon. the original plan was to head to ikes, arguably the best sandwiches in SF, but our plans were thwarted when em called in and found we had to wait til 2pm for the next pickup. :/

so we got to estelas, which deceivingly has the same star-age as ikes--- but def not as good.

sandwich lesson of the day: call ahead for ikes and never say no to avocado.

v got a bf

this is that skirt i made about a month ago here. its finally HOT HOT HOT in the city. enough to warrant going out WITHOUT a sweater for the wind chill.. On friday, SF reached a record 96 degrees. it was honestly disgusting. my black steering wheel pan seared my fingers, outside lands blocked off access through the park, and there was no breeze to whip off the sweat from my glistening head. LAWL

goodnight

pillow project #2

my new pillow cases made from $2 scraps from peapod fabrics on 18th and irving. couch: complete

AH LOE!

this is the closest i have to an outfit post from my LA trip. haha its a striped button up from uniqlo, white chino shorts from jcrew, reefs, and some HM sunglasses.

ever since i got my move in date for UCLA, ive been GIDDY to go back, move furniture, decorate, and MAKE THINGS.

today in the city: 80 deg in my room according to my smokey the bear (ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT WILDFIRES) thermometer, ikes place for a delicious sandwich with Em and Jacque, hopefully biking with B, getting paint chips with pops, and fellowship dinner at Jlaus. its gonna be great.

jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

simmer down now Con, you are not a chubby chipmunk.

just a thought.. from biz

I’m wondering if Ne-Yo made the song “Be on You” loves Anchorman...

Ne-Yo:
“Excuse me little mama if I may,
Take this thought and send it your way,
And if you don’t like that,
Then send it right back,
But I just gotta say,
I wanna be on you.”

Ron Burgundy:
“I wanna say something. I’m gonna put it out there; if you like it, you can take it, if you don’t, send it right back. I want to be on you.”

sunday morning

this weather's got me really feeling florals of all kinds. this top is gap for a coool $18. i havent sewn my two new pillow cases yet, but they'll make an appearance here in a few days. emily and i bought the fabric at peapod on 18th and irving on friday before hitting up fifi's. it was an almost normal hang out.. with the addition of some pale ale and minus carter. i miss those days. were thinking about a reunion LSA retreat! would that be too weird?
and im driving erin and her brother enders to lowell for freshmen orientation on tuesday.. WEIRD. i feel like ill be like "okay kids, have fun at school. see you at 3:30 for soccer practice!" hmmmmm..
and B come back from vacay!

HBD connie!

in her memory, i wore the skirt turned dress she got me for "christmas" (from her roomie's box of undesirable clothing). it's been soooo beautiful in the city the past couple of days. :) im all golden brown like a good cha sew bao.

met up with Heejin at Ocean beach on wed, before she headed off to a journ reunion dinner. i was reminded of what a genuinely joyful, down to earth person she is. ive missed her a lot since harvard took her away. we got all caught up on lowell news, 1st year college experiences, breakups, drifting friends, people's boyfriends.. ahha and korea!

and my nails are jade
