Apartment Virtual Tour!

In case some of you (a lot of you? I don't even know, how many "you" even read this?) haven't been inside the apartment Caitlin and I share yet, I created a virtual tour because I am bored and have nothing better to do with my life.



142 RICHARDSON ST:

First stop, Caitlin's room! It's in the front of the apartment. How exciting!

This is in my room. As you can see to the left there is an air conditioner, given to me by my old babysitter Kristen, who just got married (so congrats!). This thing has legit saved my life. To the right is my favorite drawing by my friend Tracey Alvarez. It's appropriately placed next to my shelf with all my cameras.
This is our kitchen-area. We have postcards from Sweden on the fridge (and not pictured but we also have a photo of Nikki as a child, naked playing with blocks and a random photo we found on Lorimer St), cow shaped salt & pepper shakers, and way too many cups.

This is a sign my dad stole from the Berlin zoo a long time ago. It says "Do Not Feed." We're really clever so we hung it in the kitchen.

Oh, here is the fridge again. I should have taken a photo of the inside.

Tola's housewarming gift. A self portrait. It is wonderful and matches everything in the living room-area.

This is the bulletin board where we hang out bills and other things. We have a subway map, it was Mihran's housewarming gift to us...of course. Above is a manila folder on which Henry drew a bunch of people and it emphasizes the theme of "a lot of dick."

Here is our DVD shelf thing. It does not fit all of our DVDs. We have the weirdest DVD collection, but whatever it's cool. We also bought flowers.

This is the hallway from the living area to my room. Another Tracey Alavrez original is pictured.

This is the view from the bathroom. It looks messy but it's really not.


This is the bathroom.
This is our backyard from my window.

This is my totally empty closet because I forgot all my hangers in Tuxedo and I don't have all my clothes here anyway. Plus all I brought were sweaters and it's fucking disgustingly hot outside.


This is my shelf with all my cameras (or, rather, it will be since not all my cameras were with me when I took this picture)

My clothes in a heap on the floor next to a dresser drawer I bought from Target. I need another one.

The door to the backyard + other part of my room.

My bed/bulletin board.


My bed where I am currently residing in as I write this blog entry on my shitty stolen internet at 3:30 am.

I need to go to bed. Detailz on actual life l8tr.

In the London Times

SWEET.

Does anyone have a hard copy by any chance? I looked for it all day yesterday, in like every single international magazine store I came across in the city and NOTHING. So annoying.

summer lovin'

These past few weeks have been totally ridiculous. I went to Maine with Tola, Henry, and Jack where we visited Kate and Oliver on Great Cranberry Isle. It's really beautiful there and the 9 hour drive there wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Jack and I broke up but we are on good terms so it's fine, we're alllllll fine.

Then the next week Amanda, Caitlin, and Aaron were going to Montreal and invited me along for the ride. I decided I'd go...because why the hell not it's not like I have anything else to do and I haven't been to Montreal since I was 13 so it would be nice. Even if it is only for a day...

We saw this band called The Veils, so good! I was blown away. I had never heard of them before the show, but Amanda is a pretty big fan so we went. It was great. We stayed at Aaron's house, he was looking after his friend's cats which are identical twin brothers and both named Henry who I was randomly allergic to? Montreal is beautiful and filled with gorgeous french speaking men, I want to go back asap.

I had Grace, Nikki and Houston over my apartment the other night, it was really fun. We went to Christian Joy's show on Ludlow and saw Moon afterwards. Interesting movie, I don't really know what to say other than it made me upset. My apartment is so god damn hot though, it's disgusting. Patrice is spending the week there as well so there were like 500 people in an already hot apartment. Didn't make for the best sleep but I am picking up an air conditioner tomorrow.

Also super excited to see the new Tron holy shiittttt it looks ridiculous! Um, that's about it...here are some photos:


my cute scared leg from bug bites/hiking with shorts on (dumb).







I'm going to do a seperate post for all my Maine photos.
