01/30: Look At Meeeeeee

Blogging challenges were never for me.

Mostly because I don't like being told what to do/write about.
And then I also feel kind of awkward spending an entire month talking about me, me, me.
Who am I kidding? I love that part.

Example. A typical conversation between my mother and me:

Mom: I juiced this pomelo-orange-lemon-apple concoction for you. Drink it.

Me: No.

Mom: Drink it.

Me: Absolutely not.

Mom: OK, whatever. (*Puts juice in fridge.)

5 minutes later.

Me: I'm going to have some juice.

Don't ask me why I make life harder for myself,

I ask myself the same question every single day.

I digress.
Blogging challenges.
Haley over at Dwell in Possibility posted this and - get this,
I actually really wanted to do this one!
Maybe it's because I get to talk about myself so much,
go figure.

Here we go...

Picture of myself.
I wouldn't say this is my absolute favorite picture in the history of ever,
but my bestie Mollie and I had a photo shoot the other day
for her photography lighting class (yeah, it pays to have a friend in photography school),
and sometimes I look at the pictures and pretend I'm in a Gap ad:

Three facts:

01. Last night, we fit 7 people into a tiny 5-person car to go to Taco Bell.
Caw-ledge.
02. Coffee shops/cafes are my favorite places in the world.
OK, I'm not saying I'd turn down a trip to Maui or the South of France,
but I'm never more in my element than in a Starbucks or any cafe, really.
03. Whenever I'm feeling lost or sad or unstable in any way,
I look up & find Orion in the night sky and feel much more balanced and at peace.

Three goals:

01. Find a summer internship soon-ish.
(Marketing/communications/social media peeps - hit me up!)
02. Live in NYC when I'm young.
03. To look back, on my dying day (morbid, seriously)
and think: I wouldn't have lived it any other way.
