jealousy

so several of the girls i work with are off to start fashion internships this week and next week in new york city. they've gotten positions at marie claire, seventeen, designer talent management firms...its incredible. i am so happy for them, but i wish it was my time. between FIDM and dealing with transfer bullshit i really feel like i could easily be a fashion intern right now. today. i'd pick up and move in an instant. every fiber of my being aches to start actually working in this industry. to be rid of dumb girls who don't understand the genius of tapered trousers and "fashion addicts" who pile on flashy designer logos to give off some sort of "in-the-know" vibe. im sick to death of people afraid to take risks, who only wear or do things that are in front of their faces. i think i love fashion so much because its like a treasure hunt. we get to sift through all this media thrown our way, be it tv, print, clothing, music, art, design....and pick what fits us. its a beautiful puzzle or mosaic that is really never ending. and hopefully always evolving. i adore people who know themselves well enough to do things their way but are open enough to never remain stagnant in one rut. ugh! i need to meet some new people.... <3

new obsession: Owl City. fun/mellow electro pop at its best. www.myspace.com/owlcity yes i am whoring them. =] i have recently decided i want to live my life in clothing that is not my size. bigger IS better. for example: for the spring days that beg for comfort but are still on the slightly chill side. oh yes =] and i want this coat. uh mazing. i know its spring 09 but in all the madness that is my internet pictures file the label has been lost. maybe someone can tell me what it is so i can hunt it down. <3

happy valentines day

marc you tricky little devil

i want this right now. its so freakin cute! its a little ridiculous how much excitement and lust can stem from anything marc jacobs even looks at. unfortunately, for this little marc worshipper, $2034 is quite a lot. maybe ill just put little bows on my quilted stam.

excitement and relief

these words dont even begin to describe how i feel right now. last year i went the the fashion institute of design and merchandising in los angeles and 42 credit hours later, decided a two year school wasn't what i wanted so i transferred. ok, attempted to transfer. i wanted to go to florida state university and studey merchandising there. well, as my luck would have it, they didnt want me. ok, i exaggerate. they didnt want anyone without an associates degree from a florida school. i was 18 credit hours and 3000 miles away from that. soooo i went to a community college for 3 semesters and got all the boring math, science, history b.s. out of the way and today finally got word that fsu's merchandising program wants me!!! its good to feel wanted again. fidm really wanted me and fought to keep me so it has been really frustrating dealing with a big state school. the next fight will be about specific classes transferring, but i will not give up!fsu needs me. they do, and ill prove it =]
