hello, goodbye

This is me circa 1997...it's so amazing that these pictures were even taken, it's like I knew I was going to be doing the same thing 12 years later? As you can see, I always had a strong love for vinyl.

Listening to: Magical Mystery Tour-the Beatles, and Totally Minnie (which I completely forgot we had until I saw this picture for the first time a few weeks ago, but now I definitely remember being a little obsessed with it). Favorite tracks: Fool on the Hill and Hey Mickey. I don't think these favorites have changed! Fool on the Hill was the first song I knew all the words to.

the lantern

Vintage Betsey Johnson dress.
Listening to: Thier Satanic Majesties Request-The Rolling Stones. Favorite track: She's a Rainbow. This was the most "Halloweenish" record I could find. I think the cover is extremely cool. Happy Halloween!

fascination

Vintage shirt, skirt from Totem in Brasil.

Listening to: Young Americans-David Bowie. Favorite track: Fame.

Today, my friends decided to cut a worm in half to see if the whole one worm turns into two thing works. I protested quite a bit, and they really should have listened. That worm is now dead. (I think?) Other than that tragic moment, today was a great day. Our water polo team won their game 20-5!

boo.

Since Halloween is coming right up, I decided to make a couple of collage things for fun. It definitely took me quite a long time.

The picture of Mick Jagger is really very strange. He looks quite a bit like a woman...(on purpose?). This semi-scary picture of him made me think of this whole idea. I wanted to do more, but I'm tired and couldn't really get any more inspired!

Definitely my favorite part of Beetlejuice (one of my favorite movies too, actually)

white heat

Vintage Betsey Johnson dress.

Listening to: Rock n Roll Animal-Lou Reed. Favorite track: Rock N Roll.

More pictures from the desert (well, around that area). On one of our off-road adventures, we found the site of a burned down house. Although there weren't any house ruins, the old rusty electric saw and lonely windmill were really like something out of a scary movie, but a good place to take pictures!

Simone

thorn tree in the garden

Vintage skirt, American Apparel shirt, shoes from Urban Outfitters.

Listening to: Layla-Derek and the Dominos. Favorite track: Bell Bottom Blues.

I took a trip to the desert for the weekend. It was mighty hot but a lot of fun. I was very disapointed to learn that my favorite place to get milkshakes closed down! We found another place though. It was my dog's first camping trip! She was a happy camper.

steppin' stone

Vintage everything (besides my flip flops and watch). Everyone kept asking me things or making comments about my shirt, like if I was from Cleveland, when really I have no idea who the Browns are and I'm not a football fan at all, I just like the shirt!

Listening to: Children of the Future-Steve Miller Band. Favorite track: Junior Saw it Happen. The writing at the bottom of this cover is extremely cool. I couldn't figure it out at first. Look it up and see if you can figure it out.
