One of my favorite books in the whole world, if not the number one favorite, is Sabriel by Garth Nix. Not just the story, but the aesthetics of the book are amazing. My favorite writers are those who can paint a specific, moody, stylistic picture. Realism isn’t important to me, but a distinct tone is [...]

Here are some of the photos I took on Thanksgiving. I hope that you Americans had an awesome holiday, and that the rest of you had a good day regardless.

Sorry I’ve been absent from the blog for so long! It’s Thanksgiving break and I’m overwhelmed with food, family, World of Warcraft, and academics. I’ll be posting real stuff again soon, I promise.

I never feel more calm, safe, and at peace than I am in a library. Even doing research for a stressful final paper, I find solace in book-lined aisles.  There’s something still and old about a library, almost as if it’s cut off from the rest of the world’s flow of time. I love a [...]

I feel like a newsie today (an emo one, apparently). You’ve all seen Newsies, right? If not, you should.

Christian Bale at his best, I kid you not. A beautiful, beautiful man.
Back in middle school and high school, my ultimate fashion goal was to find a newsie hat. [...]

It’s 6:00am and I’m awake! But why?!

I’ve been up all night with Arthas. He showed me around his pad, Northrend.
Over the summer, or at some point in the recent past, I made a blog that was supposed to be dedicated to the aesthetic appeal of World of Warcraft (’cause, you know, I play). I made [...]

Today I wore black and navy together in (gasp) one outfit. Now, I would never have thought this was any kind of offense, except that a friend of mine once told me that it is Completely Unforgivable to wear black and brown or black [...]

I know I already made a post about New York, but I realized I hadn’t done anything with the pictures my dad sent me from his phone. These are some of my favorites from the trip (ignore my pre-haircut look… it is frightening, I know).
My dad just moved to California last month, so I’m feeling [...]

Wind whistles outside my windows, but I’m warm and safe where the light is muffled and everything becomes softer as I fall asleep.
