happy thanksgiving!

hope you all have a wonderful and safe holidayhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif. i am forever thankful for everything i have, friends, family, health.

since this holiday is centered around whats on our dinner tables thursday night, i thought this would be interesting to share today:
what the world eats. a really interesting editorial composed of families and all the food they eat in a week, all in a portrait. take a look! view the entire slideshow here.

what the----

so i finally checked my stats, as you can see from above, a map of recent visitors to my blog.
people actually read this thing!?
this can't be right!

thanks to all of you, both friends and strangers. hope you are enjoying :)

peanut

peanut's new sweater. my dad said he looks like a convict. i think he looks like a sailor. or where's waldo.

sometimes

you like things you don't need.
from need supply.

root veg

one of my favorite vegetables...grown in my aunt's backyard! she brought some over this weekend and they have yet to be roasted. speaking of roasting, thanksgiving is just around the bend. one of my favorite holidays, mostly because of the eating part. yum.

guess who!

guess who's performing at MOCA LA's 30th birthday bash this saturday?!

MY BARBARIAN!
for those of you who don't know:

hahahahha. i'm glad malik is still doing well and his band is thriving.

sushi time

i know there's no such thing as california rolls in japan. but anyway, here's what i made this week.

one day

i think i want a little nook like this.

Monday monday.

Today was semi-eventful.
I:

1. Went on a field trip and got out of class early
2. Ran into a first grade friend
3. Used a hairbrush for the first time in 500 years


The end.

koala wine!

im a sucker for koalas. or mostly all small fuzzy animals. and wine is cool too i guess.
the dieline.

sucrose

these remind me of sucrose hexagons...lovely understated jewelry from ak vintage.

ak vintage.

shooooz

I don't think these are meant to be used as real shoes. At least I hope not. Caesar Pelayo and I had a great debate about the pros and cons of edible shoes, and came to the conclusion that in a third world country where one might or might not be able to afford shoes, edible footwear would be better than none at all. Even if crows attack you on your way home from school. It's not like they'd hurt you; they'd just eat your shoes and fly away.

I especially like the shoebox packaging.
Find them here.

seriously

Shannon told me about this new Coen Brothers movie, which I had no idea about. I have a personal affinity toward any and all of their movies, so by default I'm telling myself I'll like this one too. Here's the trailer.

saturday night

update!
a boring night in for me, although i managed to crank out a bit of my paper on dubai, and work a bit on the business plan (sucrose!). with all the demographic and psychographic and market segment research i've been doing for the business i'm beginning to feel like a scheme-y marketing scumbag. but i swear it's all for the good of the company! i swear...you guys shall see soon enough...

the only exciting part of my night:


from louboutin.

friday update

nothing spectacularly exciting, but here goes!:
school is, school. 5 more weeks and i'm outta there, and then i'm off to taiwan again for yet another cousin's wedding. we are getting old!
the internship i had didn't work out (aka it was lame and i didn't go back) so i actually had the day off yesterday. most of the day was spent on cute overload and googling "baby elephants" and "lions" because i started working with some dudes on a freelance job designing baby bedding. future babies of america, look out!
also, my mom got me a gym membership so i went and took a step aerobics class, which is just about the funniest and most embarrassing thing you could ever do to yourself. i kept picturing people i knew doing the class with me. step and clap and jump and over and jump and step and!
happy friday people.

: )

happy november.
