Magic.

Christmas is the most magical time. Its funny how quickly you can get into the Christmas spirit before Saturday I hadn’t really thought too much about Christmas but then I  got out my decorations, dusted of my Christmas music playlist, got a  Christmas coffee from Starbucks and bam! Christmas spirit is in full swing over here.

I spent a lot of time cutting paper snowflakes this weekend as a result my floor looked like this. A bit of a mess (understatement alert) – but the finished product is super pretty. I’ll share peeks later this week.

I need to start blogging more. I think the busiest part of the year (midterm season) is pretty  much over so hopefully I’ll have some more time to be blogging because I miss all of youuuu!

I want to blog about decorating our little apartment, I want to share some holiday projects with you, I want to make another holiday playlist for you, and (drumroll) I think I’m finally ready to blog about India (this may be a couple of weeks before you see it because I want to do all of my posts and then schedule them for one or two a week – but it will be soon!).

I’m excited for this new season and fall has been busy but I want to enjoy the last few weeks of fall before its gone.

I miss you!

ps. i love you

Allister’s photos are always, always super pretty…

…but this post was just what I needed in the inspiration department this weekend.

the science kid strikes again.

normally i would post something like this after a regular post in my little “ps. i love you” segment, but the anatomy/science/jurassic-park-loving kid in my is geeking out too much to use capitals let alone wait till i have something good to blog about to share this with you.

so yesterday i got my new nylon and didn’t get a chance to look at it until just a little while ago, and when i did i saw this…what are you freaking out about you say? here’s a better look… i am dying inside right now. these shoes are one of the most amazing things i have ever, ever seen. if they didn’t come with a pricetag of several thousand dollars i would consider buying a pair to display in my home.

i am obsessed with these. i can hardly contain myself and have been looking at them all day.

i don’t even know how to end this post. . .

ps.

i’m so excited by these shoes i forgot the important bits. they are by dean and dan of dsquared (represent for the canadians!! holler) for their f&w 2010 collection.

you have my heart.

the science student in me geeks out/gets pretty aroused when i see some form of design featuring a (somewhat) anatomically correct heart graphic. here is some geek porn for you other like minded science and graphic design kids. holler!!

Have you Heard?

Yesterday while I was out and about I saw a number of awesome things including a tape dispenser shaped like what else? but a cassette tape!! Sadly I didn’t purchase that but I did purchase a new magazine. Cooler Magazine out of the UK is pretty much amazing. Visually, its one of the prettiest/coolest magazines I’ve ever laid eyes on and given my slight magazine addiction that number is pretty high. Think Nylon but for with more surf/snowboarding content depending on the season.

Basically I want you to go out and check out this magazine but until then check out a bit of the June/July issue. Pretty right?

Happy Friday. lovelove Jer

i’ve fallen in love.

back in love actually – with Flickr. For the past couple of years Flickr was my main source of inspiration for all things crafty. There was rarely a day that went by where I didn’t check it at least once (and often numerous times) a day. The past, I would say 6 months, I just haven’t been feeling it. I’ve been using WeHeartIt a lot in the place of where I would have used Flickr in the past (I find the search on WeHeartIt turns up better results than on Flickr although there are sooo many other things that I don’t like about WeHeartIt) and I was only uploading things very irregularly. Over the past 6 months I had only uploaded about ten times.

This past week-ish, all that has changed. I have been browsing on Flickr everyday, finding myself some lovelies to inspire me creatively and I Have even uploaded a few times in the past few weeks. So here, to inspire you, are some of my most recent faves from Flickr:

1- Untitled 2- Maria Virginia 3- Untitled 4- Untitled 5- bedtime 6- Untitled 

7- Bruce Wayne has nothing on this kid 8- morningisalongwaydown

 

Hope these inspire you on this gorgeous hump day!!

I need your help friends!

It is officially summer vacation for me so that means more:

sleeping in, time enjoying the sunshine,picnics and barbeques,ice cream cones (even though i like it better in a bowl i almost always get a cone because c’mon, its summer),and reading for fun (no more of this text book business).

Sources: bed, sunshine, picnic, ice cream, books 1, books 2

This is where you come in. I need to put together a sweet summer reading list so your suggestions are required to do that. I’ll read pretty much anything so don’t worry about that and if you like a book, or think I’d like a book post it in the comments section. I want to hear about anything and everything.

Thanks friends.

Jer

PS. I love you. Yes you.

 

 

 

itching/obsessing.

I have not had a working camera for approximately 7-ish months now. Let me tell you – it sucks huuuge. I am finding I have like no pictures from the last 7 months making it very hard to scrapbook and blog about myself. Unfortunately since there are times, especially now as I reach the end of the year I can barely afford to eat (slight exaggeration) a new camera does not quite fit into the student budget. Luckily when I go home to my parents I can use theirs (even though the frequency of this is far to little to have any real effect on my need/craving to take pictures) and I have really been itching lately to take some pictures.

This weekend I am heading home for Easter and I am really excited to be able to take some pictures (especially since the weather is supposed to be fantastic). Even more so film has been inspiring me a lot lately and I am thinking I will bust out my dad’s old pentax and do some shooting in film of my families Easter celebrations.

I just love the imperfections that you can get with a roll of film  that you can’t get (as easily) with a digital. Here are some lovely film shots from flickr that have been inspiring me as of late:

from kim {1,2,3}  tina {1}cari ann {1} Tookie  {1}umetan  {1}Summer {1} annette {1} kara {1,2}

Kara’s lovelies were taken on a disposable.. Maybe that should be my first foray back into the magic world of film?

What are you itching to do these days?

ps i love you.

My friend Elsie is doing a pinhole camera DIY this week. I am super excited to see what she has come up with and try it myself!!

More fun with film. I’m obsessed.
