Back in Berkeley
So…. I’ve been terrible, no good, and very bad about blogging…
But I’m back, tail between my legs, ready to give it another shot.
After all, summer school is over and I need another thing to help me procrastinate! After a six week stay in LA, six weeks in summer school (doing nothing but reading and writing, mind you) rewarded me with straight A’s. Pepper in moving...

My newest Berkeley obsession? Everett & Jones BBQ on San Pablo, of course.
THIS IS SERIOUSLY THE BEST BBQ I HAVE HAD OUTSIDE OF THE SOUTH!
And that’s saying a lot! It’s not much on the eyes, but when I see a shack-like building that’s absolutely packed, I have to stop. It was cash only, but after a quick trip to the ATM, the food was well worth the wait.
Their menu is...
Last week, I spent the night in the Mission after a little too much to drink. Wake up, and where to go? Four Barrell Coffee, of course. They only have whole or soy milk, and it makes their rich roast that much better.
This place was awesome- bright, not cozy and bookish like other coffee shops, and you can watch them roasting the coffee in a huge in-house machine. It’s quite the educational...

First post in a few days, and I’m happy to say I’m writing it on my new Dell Inspiron mini!
10” screen, of course! Trying to type on it is a bit of a challenge- my other lap top is huge! I can’t wait to take it out to play at my favorite coffee shop, Village grounds and enjoy it with some organic free trade iced coffee!

So, I’ll admit that PF Changs is fabulously disgusting, but I can’t resist the martinis for some reason…
Tonight, the Chinese 88 Martini with Gin, Lemon, and sparkling wine topped my list. For dessert? Why, a key lime pie martini, of course!
Who needs foods with drinks this yummy?

Went to the de Young to see the YSL and Warhol exhibits today. What a beautiful day in the city. Warm weather + a day at the museum + chowder bowls= perfect.
here is a quote from Warhol that pretty much sums up my Media Studies degree:
“I’ve been quoted a lot as saying ‘I like boring things.’ But that doesn’t mean I’m not bored by them… because the...
Spring Spruce Up
The warm weather that many of us are already enjoying calls for a bit of spring-cleaning, no?
Who doesn’t want to improve their home!? The easiest way to add color and charm to a room is adding indoor plants.
Choosing the right plant can be a tricky situation- How much light does it need? How often should you water? Do you go with trees, flowers, or vines?
Even though my mom is a...

Friendship Jewelry
Do or Don’t?
Totally a DO!
The stuff that says “best friends” is a bit tired, but a simple piece of jewelry that neither of you can keep your eyes off of: I say go for it!
Leave the rings for your lovers and matching tats are probably never a good idea, but what better way to share the love?

Ahh… the beauty of spring break! For those of you no longer in school, solace yourself with the fact that you make money for all that work you’re doing while students pay to work.
Some highlights from LA:
A karaoke birthday party at Belmont on Sunday: so much fun- in LA, most people doing karaoke are actually singers, so no earplugs necessary.
Followed by Soupplantation and Rock...
Gimme a Break!
And I’m not talking about a kit kat bar, kiddies.
Ahhh… the beauty of spring break!
Finished midterms this afternoon and headed into San Francisco. On the way back, totally blanked out for five minutes, and ended up on some random road. I don’t even remember getting off of the freeway. It must really be time for a break!
