Paper Back Writer


I am feeling amazing. This past weekend I went to LA with my mom and grandma and while there is always stress when traveling with family it was an excellent trip. We saw Paul McCartney at Dodger Stadium, we stayed in a hotel and we went to the LACMA. I honestly felt amazing, Paul McCartney was amazing. I wasn't as excited about the whole event as I would've been for a musician I listen to a lot, but it turned out to be one of my top five favorite concerts. But to be honest, every concert is my favorite concert.. hehe. But Paul was honestly fantastic. It was a humbling experience to be in a stadium full of 56,000 people singing along to the same song. It was insane. Plus the fact that Paul is just obviously a very very talented person. I felt it was obvious he is not jaded and truly enjoyed the whole show. He played for nearly 3 hours and he was so funny and did little dances. I don't know I just have major respect for him. We stayed at the hilton in downtown LA it was nice because my mom and i haven't stayed in a hotel for a few years and they had a rooftop jacuzzi that was fun and we could look out and see the hills of LA and the cool ass library. Then yesterday we went to the LACMA, Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It was amazing i felt like my soul was right where it was supposed to be. I was super happy to finally see the illustrious lamp post installation that everyone and their mother has taken pictures in. FINALLY I AM A COOL INSTAGRAMMER I HAVE THE LAMPPOSTS! But they also have this insane exhibit that changes your perception of color and light and let me just say my perception is changed. It was insane, you go in this weird room and you have to take off your shoes and put on those weird feet covers and I highly recommend you all go. It is a permanent installation, all you have to do is make a reservation. The museum is ginormous and has so many cool things. Its great.Currently they have a Van Gogh exhibit and wow honestly van gogh i know people are all pretentious and don't want to be into him because he's so well known now but there's a reason. Never feel bad for liking something everyone else likes if you truly enjoy it because there's a reason it's liked! Van Gogh paintings are amazing they are fantastic and lovely and i love them. so there. Anyways I had a great weekend. I feel good about life.

We will find a way through the dark


Today I had my last official class in which I completed my self portrait, as seen above. Tomorrow I have a presentation on women's reproductive rights in Argentina, and on Monday I will present my self portrait. But besides that, I am done. I am done with my first semester of college. I am extremely proud of my self portrait, it really progressed from when I started and it looks far better than anything I thought I could accomplish, at the same time I know its not perfect, but it was also my first attempt.Overall I'm really proud of myself in general. In life. I'm glad to be having a break, because I truly need it, but at the same time I'm bummed to switch classes because I like the ones I have so much. I'm also not interested in taking my general education, which is a problem. But I will do it. Because it's literally forced.

But I finally feel like I can sit down and breathe.
And get excited for Christmas. Finally.
Where's my Christmas tree?

FESTA

so i had a really shitty morning. Feeling overall sad and unimportant due to the inconsiderate actions of others. But then I went to an Art Walk in Little Italy with my mom and it was pleasant and i won a OneDirection t-shirt it was the most beautiful moment of my life, I don't even know, the bad juju from my morning turned itself into pleasant happiness in the form of hot british boys that I can wear on my body. That's a weird way to phrase it, but you get my point. (they had a regal cinemas stand at the walk, and you spun a wheel for various prizes)

wow, look at this beautiful shirt I won

I really like going to the Art Walk, people reserve these spaces and do these beautiful chalk drawings and all the restaurants have tasters and there's jewelry and it's great.

Leonardo DiCaprio, so dreamy.

Oh, also, my first picture, the Tea one, I posted it on my instagram, and this girl I don't know liked it, so I went to her page, and she reposted it as her own. So i'm kind of pissed off but overall happy because that means my photo was cool and worthy of stealing. It's literally exactly the same, like really you're gonna tell me you took a photo the same angle and then added the same light effect to the side of it, alright. But what I am curious about, is uh, why did you like it??? I never would've found her account if she hadn't liked my photo. I just don't understand people. 
She's a pretty terrible thief.

Art Boot-camp OWW


At my school we do an immersion week (last year I was in Paris, sob) and this year I participated in an art "bootcamp". We learned to use different mediums such as wire, paper and clay. We did contour drawings (my fav) and we made buttons and decorated mug. One of the days we went to The New Children's Museum and made prints. It was great.

Here's to two weeks of no school!
Happy Spring Break everyone!

I'd sing you a song but I'm feeling quite off





















































SO MANY PICTURES. I know, I'm sorry, but there were just so many lovely things. So if you've actually made it to the end of this post, bless you, child. 

My purse, shorts, and sunglasses are from Target, my sweater is from a closet and my shirt is We the kings.

This was from the Getty Villa, you may have remembered I went to the Getty in the past, the same day when I went to see Katy Perry. We took my grandma as part of her birthday present. On the way home we went to Pizza Port, which is the bomb diggity. Go there. Please. Pizza. Anyways, I love you guys, what? My instinct is to say I love you when I don't know what I was saying. 

I love you.
