quote of the day

"All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."

 ~ JRR Tolkien

naked

i've always loved the beautiful lyrics of "near to you" by a fine frenzy


finally made the decision to go ahead and purchase urban decay's naked palette. alot of justifying had to take place in order to not feel guilty after, but one swipe of the half baked shade and i knew i made the right choice.

fast car

 
lately my friends and i have re-ignited our passion for this sweet 90's hit; this cover came up during one of our highly obnoxious jam sessions and i must admit that this version is a great take on the classic.

capri

obsessed with "you and i" by ingrid michaelson


capri was literally one of the most breathtaking places i've ever been.. it was a pretty far trek from rome, though, so i wouldn't recommend that anyone do a day trip there like we did. and well, after about a couple of weeks of being back from europe, i've finally finished posting all of my pictures. resume regular blogging schedule slash content.

roma

currently listening to "something" by jim sturgess


a few places that we visited in rome include the colosseum, vatican city, trevi fountain, spanish steps, the sistine chapel, and even a wine and cheese tasting... i can't believe there is so much history in just one city. it definitely puts things in perspective when you're amongst thousands of tourists in a city that holds ruins older than your grandparents.
