March madness

Animal Kingdom-Strange Attractor. This song reeks of summer nights. They are just around the corner...

Happy Friday. Happy last couple of days of spring break. Happy VCU basketball win this weekend? UVA?

Happy.

Better days to come

I'm sitting on my balcony for the first time since living at this apartment. So, it's taken me about 2 years to really enjoy it. Granted, it is littered with feathers from the birds flocking around and it is in need of a good sweeping, but in this moment, those are of little importance.

A really bad picture of the view from my balcony. I felt a lil weird holding up my laptop at oncoming traffic so it was one, two, three, click and done.

It's a little past 7:30pm and the sun has just officially set, thanks to my good friend, Daylight Savings. Balmy weather. A good mix of music playing. The town is a little quieter today, a little less crowded because of all the kids on spring break. I was initially supposed to go with them, but at the last minute decided to stay another night.

It's so peaceful. And makes this city seem almost.. bearable?

I haven't been myself lately. Deep deep down there's this carefree, joyful me waiting to blossom!

And her time is now. I'm claiming it. I can't control my circumstances, but I sure as anything will do my best to stop this negativity floating around in my head.

God, keep me and strengthen me.

Asians with blonde hair

I just caught the finale of one of my favorite shows, Top Chef. What does this have to do with the title of this blog? This episode briefly showed the girlfriend of the one of the contestant's, an Asian girl... with blonde hair. She was making it work! It was so chic and good-weird, as opposed to bad, in-your-face-whether-you-like-it-or-not weird. Which reminded me of this image...

2ne1's Lonely video

So this isn't really that unusual of a trend, and I've seen it done before, but that 2ne1 video over the summer last year was the first time that I really thought it looked good, and wanted to try it! Seeing that girl on TC today reminded me of my desires for crazy blonde locks, especially because she's rocking it stateside. Gives me more confidence that it can work here. Maybe I'll get the guts to go through with it someday.. I told a couple of people about my ideas since its inception in my head, and surprisingly, they say they can see me with it lol. On the other hand, do I really want to induce more damage to my hair? And I imagine upkeep would be ridiculous... constant root touch-ups with my dark as night hair... don't have the time for that.
