i can play everyday

so i decided that i want to spend my summer days:
blowing bubbles at duke gardens and beyond (velvet pony)

or in fields perfecting fairy life (hannah + landon)


and listening to trippy music like animal collective and mgmt and the magic wands (h + l)


and i want to spend my summer nights running around at shows and clubs wearing slightly racy clothing... is this a bad thing? (cobra snake)

a couple facehunter finds.  seeeeee even facehunter appreciates the ripped tights.  i think if ivan likes it than it's golden!
i believe this is from a nylon several years ago.  these pictures make me want to spend my summer mornings curled up in bed reading and making art.
(if you were there beware)

(loveology) 





a collection of my favorite ladies, the federals
(juliete)






these gorgeous collages are by jeff garcia.  i am totally lusting after them and got really inspired and i'm making an altered book for my ap euro project.

well one more day of school and then i'm off to cleveland for the weekend to visit cleveland institute of art!  should be fun.

through the cat door

the amazing mila at loveology tagged me... basically a dream come true

i have to find

1 picture
1 poem
1 song or piece of music
1 phrase of quote
1 item of clothing
1 place
1 disney princess
tag 6 more blogs
this is my picture (velvet pony) it just has something about it that makes me feel all tingly inside.  just incredibly beautiful i guess.

Oh Captain! My Captain! - Walt Whitman - everyone should basically spend a lifetime reading the entire leaves of grass in my opinion because whitman is a total genius.  this poem combines his amazing sexuality and obsession with abraham lincoln and is just perfection.

Requiem for OMM - of montreal 

When I met you I was just a kid
hadn't built up my defenses
so i gave my heart completely
vaseline over the lenses
memories don't go away
i remember everyday 

I never ever stop wondering
wondering if you still think of us
i don't need a photograph
cause you've never left my mind
no you've never left my mind...

quote i found on the bench outside bon paul and sharky's hostel in asheville "Real eyes, realize, real lies."  
some amazing tights from urban.  patterned tights have always been my jam.  i have these great vintage tights with butterflies all over them.
this just looks like a really lovely place to be on a rainy day like today in durham.  music and books, that's all i really need in life anyways.
bell has always been by favorite, she is the only really intelligent princess.

i can be alone yeah

just a wee little post of beautiful things...

those two were from loveology.  just what i want my summer to be like.


those Polaroids are from wolf whistle on twitter... also very much remind me a perfect summer.

stompface...i'm seeing a pattern here.  haha.
vegan and vintage.  love this tattoo and the placement.  i've been thinking that i really want to get one this summer.  i've been 18 for months now but i just can't decide what i want.  and i want it to be something really special.  lately i've been attached to the idea of a bright green herbivorous dinosaur on my rib cage.
some required.  looks like a perfectly dreamy day to me.
sequin magazine.  love the red lips.  i might be sporting some this saturday... i'm going out with some of the girls for maddy's 18th.



these amazing collages are by miss dior couture,  such talent, i am always so inspired by them.

this is such an exciting time for me.  even though every other night i nearly pull out my hair with stress... i've been having such good news.  i'll be doing a lot of traveling soon.  next weekend i'll be going to cleveland to visit CIA for the weekend.  two weeks after than i'll be going to kansas city to visit KCAI.  and then the very next weekend is the long awaited trip to asheville.  there i will be finally meeting up with my roommate from governors school who i haven't seen since summer!  i can't wait for any of it!!!

cigarettes and chocolate milk

didn't my henna turn out well?!  

wonderful day today... i got a slushy after school with sophie (peach and strawberry mixed, if you were wondering) and then i came home to my acceptance letter to Kansas City Art Institute!!!!  and they are giving me the $15,000 presidents scholarship!!!!  oh i couldn't be happier!

what's more is that xan tagged me to write a poem starting with the first letter of my last name... that would be W.  i am not a writer at all so this will be more of a collection of words and things that i love:

Whispery lashes
And sidelong glances. 
Delicate flowers
And girly powers.
Poppy songs
And summers long.
Youthful romps
And a world without clocks.

haha, that was quite terrible.  but fun!  well now i would like to tag awkward digressions and dooder city who i am sure can do a much better job than me!
 
have a lovely day everyone!

i wish i could spend all my time reading blogs, there are endless amounts of beautiful and unique one's out there.  and i can't express how ready i am for school to be out, i feel like it is sucking all the creativity out of me, besides just taking up all of my time...
