i decided to post a few favorite shots from my time in yellowstone w/ my parents. it was a pretty sweet trip. i parted from them in seattle as i began my three week venture into the depths of my created being. i have loved my journeys across america the past few months. from california to iowa...and from minnesota to washington. and now from iowa back to california. what a joy to see so much of this beautiful country. i fall more in love with it each passing day. i think i am glad i am an american. i am almost saddened that some people seem ashamed of this fact. anyway...hope you enjoy some of these pictures.

new room.

i spent a good portion of the past week in and out of stores attempting to determine the best deals to create myself a nice little atmosphere of a room out in my new place in california. i had a nice fluffy, blue blanket to go on top of my bed...but my mom thought it was too dirty/moldy to use for one more year. so...i purchased three different comforters in the past few weeks. i have returned 2 of them and decided upon the one above. it's from target. one of my favorite stores. it was cheap... one of the cheapest i saw my entire time shopping. then, my mom bought me some really incredibly nice sheets to go with the color scheme. and i also got new brown and blue towels to match. i feel like a whole new person now. i am slightly excited to get into my new room and make it look nice. honestly...last year i never really made the place my own. i kept things in my suitcase...and only taped stuff to the wall. i hope this next year to make the place actually lived in...and my own. we'll see how that goes.
