What (Not) To Wear
Posted on July 31st, 2008
I am constantly annoyed by people wearing things that are horrible for them.

Posted on July 16th, 2008
It pains me to admit it, but I used to be one of those people who didn’t see anything wrong with a daily Starbucks fix. Or two. Or five. And by saying I “used to be” one of those people, I’m lying, because I am most certainly still one of them.
My usual order is a [...]

My Flea Market Adventure
Posted on July 6th, 2008
Today I went to the flea market with my mother and.. wow. Just wow.
I went with the sole purpose of finding a fake Chanel purse. (Several hundred dollars for a purse? They’re pretty, but they ain’t that pretty.) What I found was an array of horrible smells, missing teeth, swords, comic books, fake jewelry, and [...]

Things I Will Never Do To Help The Environment
Posted on July 2nd, 2008
You know, I’m pretty concerned when it comes to this planet, and alarm that surrounds its bleak future. I don’t have my own car, I turn off lights when I leave a room, and I take quick showers. All in the name of bettering the Earth. (Okay, not really. But still, I DO care about [...]
