explanations

This little collection of items is posted on my MySpace. Here are some explanations as to why these things represent me.


1
Flowers! I love them. I've always pictured myself old and wrinkly sitting in a great, lush flower garden eventually. I love the flowers my parents get every spring for our yard, and I need to learn the ways! Whenever there are fresh flowers in my room, I automatically feel like all is right with the world. Orange roses are my favorite.

2
Rotary phone. I love the colors and shapes of vintage appliances. Fridges, stoves, toasters... And I especially love rotary phones. I got an amazing Pottery Barn "rotary" phone with caller ID for Christmas! Love it.

3
Ice water. My favorite drink! Lately, soda just doesn't give me the same satisfaction as a glass brimming with ice water!

4
Paintbrushes. I love to paint watercolours. Whenever I do it, I end up feeling pleasantly surprised with myself. I really hope to get better, though. I really need to start painting again this summer. *Hint, hint Teri.. a picture of your house would be the perfect catalyst!*

5
BC flats. I actually have these in green. My absolute favorite style of shoe is the ballet flat. That is that.

6
Pillow. The more pillows, the better. I need a nice big one to sleep on. No wimpy pillows. Big, fluffy, colorful pillows are the greatest. Plus, throw pillows have the coolest graphics.

7
Chapstick. Lip balm. It goes by many names. I love it. More than gloss these days. It doesn't get your hair sticky.

8
Makeup. I have a love/hate relationship with my makeup.

9
Computer. This is an old school monitor with a teddy bear.. not exactly what I use, but it's so cute. We all know I love computers. No need to elaborate.

10
Salt. I love salt. Give me any food, and I will add salt to it. Most people can't share my popcorn, no matter how much they'd like to. They can't handle my salt.

11
Lemon. Ah, the lemon makes a re-appearance. I love anything lemon scented. Or flavored {candy}.

12
Art set. I love all things art. I wish I could afford more art supplies... and that I had more time to browse the internet for admirable artists.

13
Books. I love a great book. Hate lame ones. There is no comparison to a wonderfully written, wonderfully soulful book.

14
Hot cocoa. Mmm... My favorite is the Cocoa Trio from {Seattle's Best at} Borders. With a pinch of cinnamon. I could drink one of those even in the middle of the summer. In fact, I had one last week.

15
Eggs! Eggs seem to be a part of all my favorite foods. French toast, cupcakes, and of course scrambled eggs. Not to brag or anything, but I make a mean batch of scrambled eggs. Ask anyone.

16
Scarf. If my last post didn't explain it well enough, I love scarves. My love started a few years before my trip to Europe, but while I was there I studied the art of the scarf and my fascination only increased. Now, I want to get proficient at as many knots and styles as I can!

17
Cupcakes! Yeah, I already mentioned that they are one of my favorite foods. Funfetti is where it's at.

18
Camera. I take way to many pictures. I spend too much time editing, and surfing the internet for photos. I am a compulsive photo saver. I see a picture I like, I immediately save it to my computer. Anyway, I love photographs, and learning new ways to take them.
