My sister is the best. I was sick with fever and tonsillitis last week, and naturally, she got sick as well (we're clingy like that, haha!), but she still obliged when I casually asked her to model for my Creative Photography class midterms. I was actually only too happy to have her as my subject again, but she was apologetic about how her short hair wasn't dreamy / surreal / ethereal enough for my concept! GUUURL, did we or did we not watch more seasons of ANTM than we'd like to admit?! In the words of philosopher, modeling queen, and professional narcissist, Tyra Banks: WERK IT.

Life in 4x4

December so far has been messy - quite literally, as we've been doing a lot of spring (or winter?) cleaning at home.

Rainy School Days

I don't know what it is about school lately but every week's more dull than the last. Maybe I'm just exhausted from the everyday grind. 

Le Petit Prince

With the film adaptation of The Little Prince having recently come out, I wanted to share something I wrote about the book a while back. But first, a backstory:  A couple of months ago, one of my favorite writers,  Regina , was giving away the complete boxed set of Sandman by Neil Gaiman for her birthday to a reader (which turned out to be me. Holla at yo boy! Hahaha) Anyway, I read the first three Sandman graphic novels back in college, and instantly felt connected to the world of Dreams. But life got in the way, and I graduated before I could borrow the rest of the series from the school library. So when Regina posted on her blog that she was going to give away a complete set, who was I to say no to Lord Morpheus? All we had to do was answer: what book has changed your life? The question was simple enough, but not quite; she didn't ask for my favorite book. We often come across books, films, and songs that easily make it to our favorites list, but...
