Rainbow Everywhere

My awesome brother showed me the latest Bravery video for their single "Slow Poison". The visuals are beautiful and seem retro sci-fi, and they also mimic some collage prints by a visual artist I spotted last week. If it wasn't obvious, I love rainbow.

Books

For some reason, I feel like re-reading all the books I've ever read. Almost finished with Catcher in the Rye, and I remember now why I love it. There's something comforting about old favorites.

And you thought the shoe couldn't look any better

My favorite part of attending THE Ohio State University, isn't being represented by a poisonous nut, nor is it the tradition of jumping into a dirty lake before the Michigan game, our bow tie wearing president, or even our sweet new library (though it is amazing), it's the unexpectedly modern arty pink tunnel adjoining the RPAC (Recreational place and crap), to the athletic offices. It blows my mind everytime I walk through or past it. Somebody said it was supposed to be red, but I think it is decidedly pink and thereby infinitely more delightful. Walking past it, makes me feel like I'm in the future and walking through it throws me into a state of wonderment at just how beautiful everything looks through the rose colored glass.

Yes it are.

Shazzam!

Sometimes situations arise where I am forced to call upon my problem solving skills. Some of which skills include having a panic attack, calling my parents, crying or my favorite; magic. Despite my muggle parentage from time to time I I love to use magic to solve my problems like tonight, I walked to my car and noticed the brake lights were still on. For a second I contemplated whether my car might be a decepticon, but instead of transforming it refused to start. After having a panic attack, calling my parents, and crying, I called Triple A and talked to four different people before someone said they'd come out and jump my car in just 55 minutes. I sat in my car for about 5 minutes before I finally decided to forget the silly muggles and use magic to start my car. I turned the key and shazzam! It started. I just love magic.

Good Idea Bad Idea

It's a good idea to steal a segment from Animaniacs to use on your blog.
Good Idea: Cucumber Lime Water (Surprisingly good)
Bad Idea: Spending all your laundry money on Ding-Dongs. (If I spritz my clothes in cucumber lime water can I wear them for another week?)

Gandhi lives on my block

I'm not sure what's going on with my upstairs neighbors, but this morning I awoke at the crack of 11 to what sounded like a pro-wrestling smack down over head. It literally sounded like someone was repeatedly slamming sandbags on the floor. I guess this shouldn't surprise me as every now it then it seems they get a hold of a jack hammer and go wild on the kitchen floor. I've also noticed some of my other interesting neighbors lately. Just across the street from me lives a charming little old man, who I think is from India and reminds me of Gandhi from the way he sits outside in his white sari and seems to be meditating. Another curious neighbor is a bearded 80s devotee in running gear who wears giant shield sunglasses with a fluorescent bungee cord and embarks on his nightly run every night at approximately 7:10 pm. I just think that's awesome.
