33. it's about time to update

since i updated last, school has started. i've dropped my math minor, been polishing my french, and enjoying my two art history classes that i have this quarter. recently i started the apartment hunt in westwood with my friend, so that has been an adventure. it'll be exciting when we find a place and moving out becomes a reality. it's one thing to live in the dorms, but another to have my own PLACE with a kitchen, living room, etc. i can't wait.

i've been incredibly busy with school (sort of), work, tutoring, cec, and seeing friends. these past couple weeks i overloaded myself a bit and hit a point of breakage, but since then i've been working on recovering. i'm making more time to study and relax on my own. i came home for the weekend so that i can decompress.

yesterday was ron's birthday and i got him four tops on vinyl and pet sounds on vinyl-along with chocolate covered gummy bears, of course. tonight i'm taking him to houston's for a birthday steak dinner.

amy sent me warm, comfortable pajama bottoms from uniqlo in new york. they're essentially a snuggie for your legs and i'm sort of obsessed. if only i could wear them out of the house...

recently i've been listening to animal collective, fleet foxes, and of course the national. for some reason i haven't been listening to destroyer, he hasn't been fitting my mood i suppose. i'm seeing dirty projectors, as well as st. vincent in february so i've also been prepping for that by listening to those bands. dirty projectors just came out with an amazing EP, ascending melody is my shit.

i have readings to catch up on and papers to start, museums to visit, etc etc. it's hard to get back into that school mode but considering we're coming up on the 4th week, i better snap into it.
