anxious anticipation

so many things are happening this summer! new apartment, new car, having my artwork featured in a few stores. usually my summers consist of garage sales, road trips, parties, lots of shopping, and exploring. this summer i've barely done any of that so far. it's been spent planning (planning?!?) and working and saving money. i've dodged a bunch of parties and day trips for apartment searching, lease signing and what not. i'm convinced that all my friends hate me. the good thing is that i feel like my life is going somewhere and i'm really working hard toward something. no dead end job, no more waiting for school to start. i can't wait to start painting walls and hunting for vintage furniture (we already got a pair of 1950's vintage tweed couches!) i'm so excited for this apartment: renovated kitchen and bathroom, lots of big windows, extra rooms, exposed brick, big kitchen, lots of parks in the neighborhood (including a dog park!), and pretty much everything we could possibly need in walking distance.

but i'm also pretty nervous about the future and can't stop wondering if we chose the right place. i swear to god i have split personalities.

pictures coming soon!

  2. the tweed couches were actually a hand-me-down from my mom. they've been envied by all of my friends for the past 5 yrs or so. i'm totally excited to have them! they're not the most comfortable things in the world but with the help of a few oversize pillows i think they'll be quite nice.
