Faux Famous

I mentioned in my last post that I did a mini-photoshoot for an interview I being featured in. Well, the interview is online as of yesterday and you can check it out in all it’s glory –> here. Let me know what you think!

Well, hello there.

It’s been a week since my last post and a few things have happened since then. On Valentine’s Day, I bought myself one of the most awesome (bold faced &underlined. yeah, it’s that awesome) valentine’s gifts ever. Actually, my parents made that purchase happen, so kudos to them for being the most awesome parents ever. I’ll elaborate on the purchase later this week.

Then, over the weekend, me and a couple of my girlfriends took an overnight train trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. It was then that I discovered I do not like train rides and that I’m too damn old for Mardi Gras. Before we actually went on the trip, I had planned on focusing a blog post on the adventure, but I’m from the school of if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say nothing at all. So, I think for the purposes of this blog I may just leave that one alone. (Read: this blog. I’ll probably write about it elsewhere.)

Lastly, last night I did a mini-photoshoot for a blog interview I’ll be featured in tomorrow. I won’t go into it here, but as soon as it get’s posted, I’ll share the link with you guys so you can check me out in all my pseudo-famous glory.

And because a post sans picture is just wrong, here’s a random picture of my living room set up. This room is the most underused space in my entire loft. Mainly because it’s on the second floor of my loft and I’m too lazy to walk up the stairs to utilize it on a daily basis. I just may be the laziest Asian ever.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Tyson and I got the best Valentine’s Day card this year from the most perfect valentine, Rienna. She’s not even three months yet and she’s already super-crafty. She really is the sweetest little cupcake.

I’m unattached  this year, so nothing romantical (yes, that’s a word, except that it isn’t, but let’s pretend that it is) plans for me but I think I will treat myself to something nice

PS. My friend, who also happens to be my tattoo artist is debuting his website today. Do yourself a favor and go check it out –> http://lovelesssociety.com 

cobradove.

I’m not usually one for making wishes (except for when I’m wishing to win the lottery – hello, the powerball is at 310 million right now!) but occasionally I’ve been known to throw a penny in a fountain or wish upon a star or even rub a Buddha’s belly (actually, I probably do that one the most). Because really, who is it hurting to have that extra little bit of good mojo behind you? Nobody. That’s who.

So, with that being said you’re now probably looking at the subject of this here blog post and thinking okay, well what does making a wish have to do with a cobradove? And also, what the hell is a cobradove? Well, I can’t tell you what  a cobradove is but I can tell you that if you find yourself needing a little extra good mojo in your life but are finding yourself short of fountains to throw your pennies in or a buddha’s belly to rub then you need to get yourself a cobradove falling wish bracelet that way you’re never without something to wish upon. And they’re pretty too.

Also, could I have said cobradove more?

To yellow, or not to yellow?

I’ve been really thinking about painting my master bedroom door a nice bright yellow lately. I’m really digging the look of painted interior doors and kinda sorta want to take the plunge myself. You can see a bunch of examples of painted interior doors on this blog post from A Design Story. Love it, right?

Well, this is my door. It’s a nice boring white. Right now my room has a LOT of grey and white. Grey walls. White trim. White furniture. Grey and white duvet set. The only yellow in my room right now is in my duvet cover, which you can see here. Need. More. Yellow.

So, I threw together this crude photoshop mockup of what it would look like if I did decide to go yellow. And then, there’s the question of whether or not I’d have to paint my closet door yellow as well if I do decide to go the yellow route. Ah, so many decisions. I think I may just have to stare at this picture for a few more days before I make any sort of decision.

What do you guys think?
