idk.

there are a number of things that most of you who know me may find surprising. for instance, the fact that i find sewing very interesting. it's actually a new interest, probably since august 08. fashion design has always been fascinating to me, but never to the point of actually designing clothing. not too sure about women's wear, but i do see myself creating menswear.
 


this is the first skinny jeans i made. i've converted 3 pairs so far. my next assignment will be altering a military jacket i bought a while back from a thrift store in ny. i hope to keep educating myself about sewing and all...

favorite prefuse 73 track

i want to make music like this. just for the fun of it. or maybe it's because i've been immersing myself into electronic a lot for the past months. idk. good night.

ugh.

i can't seem to focus on writing a 5 page paper about my visit to the baltimore museum of art. seriously, 5 pages? like my professor is going to read each and everyone's paper, let alone skim each page. it does not make sense. i wouldn't mind a 3 page paper, but a 5 page paper? someone please help me figure out what's my professor's intentions. how about not do it? :D well, since my grade will be primarily based on writing 2 papers and a final.. i have to. plus i want to boost my GPA. so, i thought this class would be a great opportunity for me to do so. BUT.. a 5 page paper about my experience at the museum?!

though i seem to do my best work under pressure, my procrastination habit is going to have to go away sooner or later.

on the bright note, i am so relieved that i didn't take art history instead :)

(here's a goodie for you ra ra riot lovers!)

it's snowden

wow! it's been almost three years since i saw snowden. i forgot her name.. but, thanks to that chic who worked in urban outfitters by 14th street, anti-anti is one of my favorite albums! haha. it was so random of her to come up to me and invite me to see snowden that night. the sad thing is.. i got blown off! it would've been nice if she came since i had no company.. even though, it didn't matter because seeing snowden for the first time totally made it up!

so anyways... i came across switchburn.com and guess what i see, a snowden set! yeah, i believe i saw some other great bands but, i just had to post snowden because they remind me of my nyc days which i dearly miss. plus i'm excited for their new release!

here is "between the rent and me"
