awkward poses should be my middle name

awkward poses should be my middle name
 ♥ DIY flower crown ♥ C & A sunglasses ♥ DIY/vintage blouse (used to be a romper) ♥ Pac-Sun bralette and eye necklace ♥ polka dot shorts (similar) ♥ Crocs sandals ♥ thrifted backpack ♥ all pins thrifted or gifted (except for TPG's Laura Palmer) ♥

The past three days I have been in San Marcos for new student orientation at Texas State. Oh boy, was I in for a treat. In two days I got locked out of my dorm room, ate gluten free pizza at midnight while talking about Wes Anderson movies (and also waited an hour for it), almost froze to death, watched Joseph Gordon Levitt's lip synch battle with Jimmy Fallon, listened to a bunch of lectures about financial and study aids, and a bunch of other ~important~ college stuff, and registered for my classes (which includes a philosophy class about America in the 1960's!). While I was there I slowly, but surely realized how much of a change this is going to be for me. I've always done so much stuff with my parents and close friends, so I know that's going to be the hardest thing to adjust to. All the other new things headed my way will be for the best, though. Now I'm just stressing myself out because I'm not sure what I want to bring with me to my temporary new home. It's all sort of crazy and hella stressful right now, but I know it'll all work out! Orientation just made me angry, because I'm just ready to attend this school and live in San Marcos already! There's also a slight possibility I might get two jobs (one at a record store and the other at a vintage clothing shop)!  AHHHHHHH!!! I hope you all are screaming out of joy with me!
The LBJ museum (which we didn't get to go in because it was closed) that's only a few blocks away from campus! Next time I'm there I will make sure to take photos of the whole downtown area, because it is soooo cute- minus all the construction.
My mom and I ate here the first night, and it was really great (almost as great as the pun)! I had the peking duck in steamed buns, and it was equivalent to heaven on earth. 

Other than that not much is new. I've been working a lot, and hanging out with Cass, and listening to records (I've recently found some gems I'll be sharing with you crazy kids soon!), stressing over money, and all the other usual stuff. Leave a comment below to tell me what you cool cats have been up to lately!

  1. The llip syncing video really made my day (i plan to rewatch Joseph Gorden lip sycing to Superbass for the rest of my life..) and you look amazing! I recently had orientation a few days ago(we were given a short tour/helpful info) We ate nachos in bags it ruled *beavis and butthead laugh*. I've purchased all of my books, and have begun to watch lectures on youtube :p I'm really excited to start my sociology,theatre, and poetry classes! I wish you the best with school, getting those kick ass jobs, and getting adjusted in San Marcos. You are so cool and will be rad wherever you are. Have a great summer!! :)
