today was my first day off work in awhile, and even though that makes me insanely happy, i've spent most of the day feeling bored. besides getting my hair cut & talking to my bff, i haven't done anything! i just spent some time thinking about how my jobs + internship are good fits for me & that i love love love working with people every day. how can i be a a shy-ish introvert & still be so inspired when i am around people?! #DILEMMA. i just love happy, friendly, positive people so much!!! this week i have had a caribou coffee relapse, & yesterday when i was ordering a delicious chocolate concoction at caribou, the barista was so so so friendly--it was awesome. AND he was wearing a cream, green, & red fair isle sweater! WHAT. IS THIS REAL LIFE? LOVE. someone once told me that i must love caribou coffeeshops because of their lodge-like interiors, and i'm starting to think he was right. i saw a wedding venue a few weeks ago with a rustic wood ceiling, & i was like "DAMN! i would have my hypothetical wedding reception here!" if you know me, you know i am NOT a fan of wood-tones & wood furniture, but apparently if you show me a wooden high ceiling, i will FREAK OUT. so yeah, happy people + chocolate coffee drinks + fair isle sweaters + lodges = WIN.

in addition to being really inspired by humans right now, i am inspired by interior decor & making my room more fun & visually interesting. i am going for kind of a 1950s space age + girly vibe, & i love it. i want to finally hang up those two framed collages (one by my bff a-woww & one by me), & make more collages (maybe using my accidental postcard collection? hmm "accidental postcard collection" could be a bad band name). i want to make more art, read more books, and learn how to make some delicious recipes, but mostly, i just want to see my bffs all over the world. peace + love + happiness + HUGS
