21 Fun

Sooo yay 

Friday was my 21st!

Of course i participated in our societal trend 

of dressing up 

and getting a wee bit drunk 

and forcing all friends to do the same

Birthday Friends

Birthday cake

Birthday shoes

Thanks to all who made my birthday fabulous!

The bangs are back

I got a hair cut and color

by my long time friend Miss Emma 

(If you ever in Minneapolis, go directly to Uptown Haven Salon

and have her do your hair

ahh the place is decorated oooo so cute

its kind of like getting your hair done in Anthropology) 

Any who i got my hair colored to match my roots 

trying to go more natural 

we will see how long this lasts

(dont think i have ever had my natural hair color past the age of 10)

pick me ups

So true to what I'm going through:

A plaque from Patina 

B Cup

Ha!

Got you!

but really 

I LOVE my new 'B' cup

Yay Anthropology for only $6

its something in the air

Every time i go to the

FARMERS MARKET

in  downtown Minneapolis 

i experience pure joy

(( and a stuffed tummy. love free samples ))

i love being surrounded by the vendors 

selling random crafts, fashion, and good eats

I love the freshness

of fruits vegetables and flowers

it just feels so right

this is how we should get our produce

local and fresh

i wish i could go every day!

The BEST Breakfast Burrito ever!

love when i can have sourkraut in the morning

<3

good beats

Listen and Dance

Happy Friday!

Read: The Hunger Games

 My friendster over at Sunny with a Chance of Sprinkles

told me i HAD to read 

The Hunger Games

and now people

i am telling you

YOU HAVE TO READ THEM AS WELL!

Its a three book series and you probably should buy all three books right away

because as soon i finish one i can NOT wait to dive into the next

Im not one for sci-fi fantasy

 (if thats what this is categorized as)

but really the characters and story line carry you through the book as if your there 

which i love when a book successfully transports me

if i try to describe the book, i fear i wont even do the description justice 

so take my word and read it

you will not be sorry

and even more exciting the movie is supposed to come out march 2012!

this should be an awesome movie

it feels like forever..

I have broken my blogging hiatus

which originally started with no internet connection

then the computer broke

then i moved and that consumed my life

then i got a second job and now that consumes my life

and now i am in MN!!!

Which i was so excited to bring my old computer to Apple and get a new one

and i guess my computer was just playing dead because it works

brat

yes i did just call my computer a brat

BUT...

i am back to the blogging world

and honestly after blogging numerous times a week 

and reading everyone else blogs every day 

i really missed the blogging world

and have a lot of catch up reading to do

But for my first post back i will do 

AWKWARD AND AWESOME THURSDAY

awkward moving in with a guy roommate

awkward security freaking out on me because i had three bags at the airport instead of two when one is a purse that super easily fits inside another one. really come on.

awkward sitting in middle seat on planes. i hate it. 

you should get a discount for that crappy seat

awkward you should also get a discount for sitting in the back of the plane. 

it takes forever to wait for everyone else to get off!

awkward (and cute) showing my grandma what speaker phone is. 

she has a facebook and texts but had never used speakerphone. so cute

and...
