Glass Beach

It's a little bit sad when there is so much trash and litter on beaches or anywhere but check out these photos of Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, California via Thisiscolossal.  Pretty interesting eh?  At least all the glass became something very unique and beautiful.  Can you imagine how many bottles people threw overboard on their boats carelessly to create this crazy beach tableau?  If only people would recycle more...

Ice Cube + Eames

Ice Cube studied architectural drafting before rap music??  So unexpected and so good. This is for you Eames lovers.

Boston Aquarium Pt. II

Here are those jelly fish photos I promised.  Aren't they beautiful creatures?  It's something about the way they move so fluidly with their irridescent bodies.  Mesmerizing. Isn't the blue photo crazy?  I kind of can't believe I took it in a semi-dark room with my dinky iPhone and it came out like this.  I have a couple more videos that I may or may not share... check back sometime to find out.

Boston Aquarium Pt. I

Hello everyone!  It's definitely been awhile since I've written anything but I have a bunch of photos to show you and possibly even some videos coming up in pt. 11 hint hint


I went to Boston this weekend and one of the very cool things I got to do is hang out with Azzara where she works at the Boston Aquarium.  So many cool sea life happenings.  Creatures under the water truly are amazing, beautiful, and inspiring.  Visiting the aquarium brought back so many memories from similar trips in middle school and elementary school.  Side note: it made me want to go to the planetarium soon and see the star shows/projections (possible winter break goal?).  After my final critique this weekend hopefully I will have time to post more before spring semester starts in January.

 Boston harbor at 8am!

(Made a new friend)

 So many insane and wonderful colors/ patterns

Stay tuned for some jelly fish photos and possibly a video or two.

Nailz

Sorry I've been so MIA! Workin' a lot, staring deep into the eyes of some seal friends. It's been SO WONDERFUL. If you don't believe me, check out our trainers blog. There are some super awesome videos of seals being fancy. 

AAANYway, I (as well as everyone in the whole world) have recently become reobsessed with nail polish. That includes painting my nails with weird creatures, buying new colours for no reason (although.. who needs a reason for new nail polish riiiight?), and just generally lurking in drugstores until the colours start to blur together and remind me a whole lot of leggings from the 80s ...Ooor cat vomit. I tried some nail art last night with my friend Gretchen, which unfortunately was slightly disastrous, but fun nonetheless.


When Amanda introduced me to American Apparel nail polish, I was a bit skeptical. Buuut I am totally a fan. I went a little crazy today and I'm so glad I did. Glitter, bronze metallic and supa fun purple! I can't wait to break out the sparkly holiday garb to pair with the sparkles on my nails. It's all starting this weekend, so stay tuned for photos. But make sure you bring sunglasses!


♥, Azzara
