Prideful Wall

my friends and i painted the wall of our apartment last night; it ended up being DUKE blue! so exciting. yay for school pride 8) here are some pictures i took before i put everything back the way it was meant to be:



the side wall on the right we made a personalized wall; all of our friends did all sorts of crazy things to it!



roomie's gorgeous desi wall hangings. we love to steal things from home.



love the complementary orange and blue.





will do an outfit post soon i promise! i just haven't been super happy with the things i've been wearing lately, so i'm loathe to share them D8

Spots of Happiness

lovely shots taken yesterday with roomie's camera. i need to start actually bringing mine around haha ;)




no idea what the balloons were for, but i love them! so beautiful, especially with the red flag. i feel like roomie's camera picks colors up better than mine does. may have to steal it even more than i already do ;)

random song i found when looking up songs from last night's awaaz. which, by the way, was amazing. love desi culture!

Fresh Colors

hey! been so long...exams are killing me. more so because i cannot seem to get in the studying groove. i keep convincing myself i don't need to do practice problems, which is such a LIE, because practicing in your head does not bode well for math based tests. 8( so i thought i would take a break from non-studying and do a quick post that i've been meaning to do for at least two weeks now.

has been raining here a lot recently, and it makes everything look so clean. and bright. like the world has been scrubbed, shined, and sprinkled with glitter. it's amazing: the colors look so fresh. some pictures my friends and i took when walking back from brunch last week:






sweetie roomie sent me the pictures off her camera (i didn't bring mine!) i'm going to start carrying my camera everywhere, because there are so many great picture opportunities everywhere. like the umbrella prop? there weren't that many other props handy as we were walking ;)

some pictures i took in the library the other day. we have an exhibit on sadako's thousand paper cranes (read the book if you haven't done so already) that i really love, so i wanted to commemorate it before it goes away.







students made all the cranes! i used to make them out of dum-dum wrappers all the time; will have to refresh my memory on how to do it. tried when i took these pictures, but failed epically (the instructions were in japanese, so no judging! D8)
