Pep Rally

A friend of mine recently introduced me to Hoodie Allen. Besides the clever name, he's a rapper who spits more pop culture references than anyone I've ever heard. Oh and he likes to sample indie songs, and I'm obsessed with tracks like "Tighten Up" and "So Much Closer." So, I've been inspired to share his awesomeness here.
Your welcome.

Stunning cinematography and the music is perfect. Watch it on full screen, folks!

Flickr Photo of the Day: I'll Miss the Grapes

This blissful photograph taken by Katie Silvester, makes me miss living on a vineyard so much. My grandparents used to own The Dundee Hills Vineyard and my family and I lived with them there when we first moved to Oregon. It's even where my parents were married! I feel a wine tasting day trip is in order this summer if my mom, dad or whoever are up for it. The pic below is of little me and my Grandpa Joe, clearly having a grand ol' time on the vineyard.

365 Polaroid Quotes

Polaroid photos and quotes, just a couple of my favorite things. Parker Fitzgerald's every day project for 2010 was to combine the two, and I'm pretty pleased with the results.





The last photo I posted above was actually taken on my birthday! Find yours and take a look-see at the rest of the 365 Polaroid Quote project!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Some people hate today, and some people love it. I'm pretty neutral, but I can't complain about the abundance of sweets wrapped in pink and red wrappers. For dessert at my sorority, we even had red velvet cupcakes with buttercream frosting and a chocolate heart on top! 

Unofortunately, my boyfriend Andrew and I both have a lot of work to do tonight so we decided that we'd celebrate this holiday on another day of the week. I'm kind of hoping we go to The Vintage for dinner, even though we said we wanted to branch out. We shall see!

Nerd Valentine

Let's face it, we're all nerds in some way or another.
And for Valentine's Day, there are gift ideas a plenty on Nerd Valentine for your equally nerdy significant other.

oh goodness...that was not meant to rhyme, yet it strangely fits with this post.

Symphonies- Dan Black (feat. Kid Cudi)

Great music video & great song.
I'm a film major and I approve of this. I think you'll see why.

Sasquatch Lineup 2011!

The moment I have been waiting for! I've got a 4 day pass to Sasquatch, and this year's lineup is finally out! There are so many bands I'm ecstatic about seeing live, and some of them I'll even be seeing a second time!


(click the poster to enlarge)

P.S. I'd like to add that I just love the poster art they do every year for this music festival. I will no doubt be buying either a shirt or a poster this year!

Zooey's Miscellany

Today, I was overjoyed to find out that the wonderful Zooey Deschanel (my not so secret girl crush), has a tumblr!

It's called Zooey's Miscellany, and it's all kinds of awesome.



Have a great weekend, folks!
