GUESS WHO IS GOING TO THE NORTHWEST TEA FESTIVAL?
downtothetea:
This tea-loving bitch, that’s who! However, as of right now, I have no one to go with. I might be a lone tea enthusiast at this thing :(
Not going to lie, I was totally thinking of going…

STAY POSITIVE.
Here is a post of me ranting about how hard my life is right now:
I really need a job.
I cannot afford to spend money or go out until I have a job.
I am having the infamous university crises of “do I actually want to major in this,” “oh my goodness, I am going to be broke forever,” and my favorite: “WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH MY LIFE?”
I miss people.
I am...

DEAR SEATTLE,
WHAT IS WITH YOUR WEATHER RIGHT NOW?
You lead me on to think that it might be overcast with a cool breeze and then I walk around outside and your humidity hits me like a brick wall.
WHY?
-Ana
P.S. I still love you.

INTERESTING. →
Having discussed the sexual repression, and in turn, sexual promiscuity of both men and women during the Victorian era in my Victorian English class, I was amused to see that there is an entire film about “hysteria” and the invention of the vibrator.
Also, kudos to Maggie Gyllenhaal for taking on (what most of American culture would call) controversial roles in film.

INDOOR GARDENING.
I just want to buy some small succulent plants so I can have a windowsill garden in my cubby hole room.
Why are they so expensive here?

FEELING LIKE AN ADULT.
I have been applying to jobs like a crazy person. I am really hoping that all these applications (and the accompanying hand cramps) and follow-ups pay off in the near future.

MOVING-IN.
Organizing my cubby hole of a room is becoming a bit of a pain, to say the least. The sheer amount of clothing and shoes I own is simply mind boggling. You never really realize how much crap you own until you have to move.
So many things to fold and stow away…
I just want to stay up and watch Scrubs. -___________-

HOME AWAY FROM HOME.
I am finally back in Seattle!
Yesterday’s flying was a bit of a bitch, but I still made it here in one piece. My mum and I caught a shuttle back to my new house and I may or may not have nearly cried when the city skyline came into view.
The best part of being back thus far: having my boyfriend and housemates run outside for hugs and then walking inside to see that nearly all of my friends...

IN CONCLUSION.
As of last night, my detox (finally) came to an end. So much Mexican food. Nom nom.
Anyway. Here are my feelings about this fifteen day beast of a diet and detox:
Good things: eating way more vegetables than I had been used to, having more energy during the day, and I even managed to lose ten pounds! Thank goodness.
Meh things: thankfully I did not buy a juicer as I quickly realized that...

DAYS 9 - 13
It has been a bitch, to be honest. I am still juicing, just so you know. I am sticking with just the green one for now because the other ones are just too nauseating for me to deal with right now.
During the last legs of the all-juice part of the detox, I started getting really sick, so I broke this part of the detox to eat some watermelon and a tomato and avocado salad. I like how I...

ADVENTURE TIME, POTENTIAL PAINTING, AND PACKING.
All of the above is occurring as to distract myself from my terrible day.
The packing bit is not helping.

SO MANY DIY BLOGS.
Holy hell. Why do I follow so many DIY crafting blogs?
All I want to do is make things all day instead of, you know, doing laundry and beginning my packing.
Planned DIYs:
Indoor clothesline for hanging up photos and art
Upholstered folding chair from Apartment Therapy
Desktop organizers
Teacup succulent garden
Paper cranes. A shit ton of paper cranes.
Lantern-covered Christmas lights
