Seagulls and Sandbars

I realized I have shared an art piece in a while.


Done.

On that note, it's about 80 degrees (F) here and I'm daydreaming of Santa Barbara beaches, ice cream, paddleboarding, and tanning. Is it too much to ask that summer would come already?

The Psychology of Religion

"What has been done is little - scarcely a beginning; yet it is much in comparison with the total blank of a century past. And our knowledge will, we are easily persuaded, appear in turn the merest ignorance to those who come after us. Yet it is not to be despised, since by it we reach up grouping to touch the hem of the garment of the Most High."
- Agnes Clerke 'A Popular History of Astronomy'

Easter. College Style.

In other news this is how you do Easter college style when you have a four day break.




yes. i used all three. when you use college washing machines the persistent fear of getting your clothes stuck in the washer makes you do some interesting things. and no, this is not the first time i've done laundry this semester.


when you're really good friends with me i let you shell my pistachios that my family keeps giving me.


PS: be on the lookout for a new facelift for the blog, it's coming soon(er or later).

A Good Break, A Needed Break

It's been tough guys. Since the last time that I've posted a series of events overwhelmed me and made last week not so good. I know, no excuse for not posting, but it was a tough time. Yesterday we got the day off from school however (for Easter) and that made things a lot better. PS: how great is it that I get a break for Easter?! 

+1 for Private Christian College.

Anyways, this four day vacation has really been needed. I need to catch up on homework and some alone time has been really nice. Hopefully I can get my homework done so I can do some crafting, but in the meantime I've been procrastinating doing this...


After my churches Good Friday service my friends and I painted nails. I'm digging this design and the colors, futuristic-color blocked-in colors... pretty much the epitome of fashion this spring. Yeah, that's how fashion forward I am. And yes, I do give lessons.


I also tried this last night. Sock curls, it kind of works, but since my hair isn't THAT long I think I need a smaller sock. 

But on that note: ISN'T MY HAIR LONG?! I'm having a whole lot of love for my magical hair growth pills right now - to see the effects go back to some of my posts from this summer, or for that matter look at the banner of my blog! My hair is definitely growing at the speed of light, I can practically hear it growing. 


Today promises to be a good day too. This morning I when I looked outside I was greeted by sunny flowers. I now know why people are so excited when spring comes after a long winter - not that we had winter here according to locals, but for a California girl, this spring is nice.


See? (But don't be fooled, it's still pretty cool outside... oh say in the 40's?)


I even got to make oatmeal for breakfast, and don't tell me you're not jealous of my oatmeal because this was pretty dang good. Nutmeg, cinnamon, almonds, raisons, granola.... it was pretty good guys.

On that note, homework calls. I also don't have any more pictures to describe what else I've been doing. Never fear though, a long weekend almost guarantees I'll post once more. Maybe. In college, all bets of work are off, but I'll try. 

Hope you Saturday is as glorious as mine is shaping up to be.
