"what are you going to prom?"


 You may be wondering why in this photo I look like I am about to spit food into my boyfriend's Iphone's face. I still had some delicious frozen yogurt in there, and he made me laugh, as usual.

My inspiration for this outfit you ask? I was going for african-tribal woman meets beyonce meets kate bosworth. Is that over-reaching?

It was such a beautiful day yesterday! My boyfriend had been craving a good sandwhich for weeks now (so he said) so we took advantage of the sunshine and went to DiBruno brothers to grab a couple of sammys and ate in Rittenhouse square. SO FUN!



DiBruno's sandwiches are only about eight dollars, and they fill them to the brim with any delicious meats and cheeses that you'd like, as well as two sides (I got potato salad and beet salad, I'm a foodie nerd, sorry)
My point is it was a good deal for the money and quality.

We then walked to a couple of shops like salvation army and this head shop my BF just had to visit. I, being ID-less, had to wait downstairs while he perused the goods. tsk tsk.

Me being the fatass, figuratively speaking of course, that I am, had to get some frozen yogurt. It's a cheaper and healthier alternative to gelato.


Expect a post of me and my girlfriends tonight. We're going karaoke-ing!!!

Cinco de Mono

First thing's first. I DYED MY HAIR


subtle, but still packs a punch mixed with other colors.

Me frolicking in the fake waters of one of my talented roomie Amanda's paintings.


So here's the explanation of this posts title.

 My other roomie just found out she has had mono for like a month. I don't want to celebrate such sad news but she seems fine now (see below) so Corona's for everyone!

 Mano y Mono! get it?





 Here's a recap of what I've done these past few days....


On Tuesday I went to see a new play called Saturn Returns. It was playing at Christ church which is B E A utiful.



The play was pay what you like, so I paid a dollar, while my date paid five -.-
He always makes me look bad.

The play was about one man's life according to the cycles when Saturn returns to where it was when he was born. Saturn returns where it was on one's birth date on their thirtieth year, and this usually brings about great change. I don't know if i believe that because 30, 60 and 90 are just the average ages for marriage, divorce, death and birth. But maybe it is a cosmic thing, you never know. The play was amazing and very sad at the same time. I won't give away the ending. Afterwords if you donated you got a button for Theater Exile . Again my date outbid me: I payed one dollar while he gave two for our buttons saying "I'm in Exile". Pretty cool.

Afterwords we got ice cream at one of THE BEST places in Philly to do it.
Franklin Fountain. So delicious.
Old fashioned soda fountain and ice cream parlor
I got this treat called Stock Market Crunch - Rocky Road ice cream (my favorite) pretzel balls and hot peanut butter sauce! and whipped cream duh. Bliss in a little Chinese container (that's their to-go cup)




I almost forgot! On Saturday I also purchased a button from the Philadelphia 2011 Art Festival on Broad Street.

They turned this...
into this!
The theme was Paris :)

I wish Broad street looked that way all the time.

Sunday I went to brunch at the Union League. It's sort of a rich man society club you have to join.

It was for my mom's best friends husband.It was beautiful, but I should not have worn heels and walked ten blocks. I tried my first raw oysters and clams. Chewy, but delicious. The little girl next to me brought five books in her little Ralph Lauren purse. I texted. She ate bacon and carrots. It was a very entertaining day. Rich people are funny.

This week is finals week. Nuff' said. Psych I get paid to talk. Psych again. But seriously I finished one today with flying colors not to toot my own horn but beep beep rainbow. And two more on Monday. A trend I've been noticing is the lack of caring what one's appearance looks like. Come on people! The whole POINT ofsummer being near is to celebrate! Looking and feeling your best is the best part!

Well there's the re-cap of my weekend and early week. Wish me luck on finals!
