Current inspirations

These pictures are currently inspiring me to:

1. do a similar design on my nails. (Which by the way are all F'ed up due to the act of laziness, but this design looks so perrrrty!)
2. draw again. Drawing used to be one of my hidden talents...until I forgot I once loved it.
3. make a crappy, but beautiful homemade tent indoor just like when I was a kid. So I can bring out the inner-child in me and have a slumber party with my baby sister all night looong.
4. re-find my passion for reading. There are so many books I want to read, to explore, to self-indulge myself into but first, I need to want to actually do it.
5. catch up, hug, and gossip with my best friend. I haven't seen her in a long while and I feel horrible. Plus, I miss her terribly.

The quintessential "bad boy" of The Hills, Justin Bobby is also the guy all the girls love to hate. Either way, no one can deny that Justin Bobby has always had this remarkably unique, "messy", bad boy style or swagg about him. So I was thrilled when I found out he is now a reality-star-turned-model, even photographed in the pages of Italian Vogue. I must say, it suits him really well and he looks daaaamnnn good.

Dear Summer...

There's too many things I haven't done yet, too many sunsets I still haven't seen. Therefore, I have come to the conclusion...I won't waste your days away by wishing they would slow down.

with love,
Irene
