Faux-Hipster Mania

I totally forgot that I haven't been posting in chronological order. The Philly photos actually follow the next three posts I'm doing, oopsie!

Attending this Girl Talk event in Williamsburg was totally spontaneous, one of those days I dove into not knowing what to expect. If anything the experience was worth while for the abundance of people watching. It was impossible to hold a conversation without my eyes darting back and forth in the background, over-stimulated by everyone around us. As Sinead had said, "All the faux-hipsters are all concentrated at this one event, essentially." So true.

In other exciting news, a few of my friends and I are thinking about creating a blog for the artsy-fartsy photos we take during our last year of college. I'm not sure how I would separate them from this blog, but on the other hand I wasn't planning even on continuing this blog past August, so I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Without further ado...

Summer is dead.

Leaves are browning, school is blooming. Air is chilling, stress unnerving. I'm afraid it's that time of year again, I never realized how sensitive I am to the change of seasons. Not in a physically get-ill sort of way, but mentally, emotionally. I miss summer already; waking up to warm mornings, running in the park and the heat tanning my face. Don't get me wrong, fall has it's romanticism as well, but it takes more effort to recognize the beauty in these upcoming chilly months. In proper fashion I'm going to make an impromptu inspiration list regardless of my cynicism:

What I love about Fall

* An excuse to drink hot chocolate and warm apple cider

* (Although I can't use mine) Fireplaces

* Cuddling under warm throws

* Scarves & earmuffs season, 'nuff said ;)

* Viewing Fall 09 collections & buying favorite pieces

* Hearty meals (Soups, stews, meat pies)

* An excuse to ride the T (subway) everywhere

* Pumpkin & apple picking!

* Halloween!

* Thanksgiving (Let's rattle off all the holidays shall we?)

Due to the massive time lapse between my last update, I have a shit ton of photos to post! I'll just have to bang them out haha. This first set is from Philly, I took a train down with my dad and brother to visit my dad's friend, Nicole. Well here goes, and just as a heads up--yes, that's her pet iguana below. Enjoy :)
