First of all, I really love spiral staircases !  They are awesome and I would LOVE to have one in my future house *~  This antique+looking staircase looks especially cool & I really like the color white ((even though this one looks a little dirty . . ))

Secondly, I love the plants that surround the staircase !  The location looks as if its a greenhouse or something *+  never really thought about it, but it would actually be pretty cool to have a greenhouse . . i looked up greenhouses on the internet and came across one that had a giant water lily pond inside which looked so lovely!

~~~speaking of plants, my boyfriend and I are looking into getting a plant!  I’m excited to get one because plants bring good energy and a state of calmness to the room *~ but we still have yet to decide what kind of plant!! any suggestions ? ? ? ** :)

I want this in my home !!

Elegy illustrated by Berto Martinez


Just finished watching the movie.  the movie fits the definition of the word *Elegy* very well.  i found out that the movie is based off the novel “the dying animal” ~ im not sure i could handle reading the book (at this point in my life) because the film was incredibly deep and many parts were very intense/sad „ although, i really did enjoy the movie ~ it was directed truly artistically and the story/words/characters were so interesting *it made me think„ really think„ about the life in which we all live„ and how the future is so unknown

hmmmm

well! i really hope katie enjoyed this blog ~ so sentimental and everything ;awekjrlkewrlkewjar i miss KATIE LOTS

and now im going to read Water for Elephants before i doze off to sleep

XOXOXOOXOX  kisses ~ 

at first i was sad to see that I didnt get into the developmental psych class I petitioned for, but later today I received notification that I got into the Romanticism music course I petitioned for!  I have mixed feelings because I dont know how hard it will be, but I’m gonna try it out and see what happens!  I looked at the course description and it has great composers that I truly do like (chopin, brahms).  Now I’m looking up their music on youtube & the other composers who I have not heard of and I am really liking the music :)  Its funny because while listening, I am reading/studying my art history book (shocker, im studying for that class already!!! GO ME) and we are learning about the European and American Romantic Art period.  oooh its so great how everything mushes together <3  i am starting to appreciate my musical and artistic childhood more and more each day..

p.s.

the oil painting is by J.M.W. Turner’s The Fighting Temeraire tugged

to her last Berth to be broken up, 1838

so today has been a day of arts and crafts :)  carolyn and i decided to do some origami!  i made a puppy dog with blue spots (outlined in pink) and her name is Francesca.  carolyn made a flower, bunny, a dollar bill armadillo (that she crumpled up), and now she is making a “man in hood” -whatever that is?

since we are living in the same suite room next year in fox 258 south, we are coming up with creative ways to decorate our room!  one thing carolyn came up with is to get lots of paint strips from the store and hang them from the ceiling in descending color order.  anddd what a kawinkydink since i found this blog while exploring crafts!  :)  ill just need to remember to collect these paint strips over the summer and we will be good to go!~!~!

screen shot in the movie alfie.  i ADORE this living room!!  it is my dream goal to have a chic/stylish house— each room needs to be exceptionally awesome- just like the one you see here :)
