Good to know that geographic location isn't enough to keep this type of girl centralized in just one area.

I'm still looking for a girl who dresses like the girls who end up on fashion blogs, but who also listens to Waka Flocka Flame. I'll let you know if I ever find this unicorn.

I majored in creative writing (for reasons still not entirely clear to me) and ****, those core classes were a trip. I remember walking into the first class of the poetry workshop course and only seeing some girl wearing a cape sitting next to a girl wearing hand warmers and knitting (possibly another pair of hand warmers).

Gravity Pope (Canadian): $420 - exclusive of shipping
Tres Bien (Sweden): $303 - including tax + free shipping

What the **** are they thinking?


Yeah, and even when I got hit with customs fees, I think it was under $30 from TBS. I don't bother with most canadian retailers unless they're having sales. Ordering from pretty much any other country is worth it even with the customs hit in comparison.

repettos struck me as the most fragile shoe on earth. I'd be weary of incorporating them as a staple piece.

I'm getting to the point where I'll be buying a lot less. I like to think that my small wardrobe is finally complete.

I just realized M_R and AFL were two separate posters. JSF is not a bad writer at all but the vegetarian book was poor.

I'm technically declared as a CW major but I am looking at things to transfer into right exactly now. Workshops are a goddamn felony, if I have to read one more story where the mom dies of cancer or a full-grown adult says "freaking" I am going to flip some little plastic chairs.

I will wear any pair of cool shoes until the bottoms detach from the tops in an irreversible way. Plus I can relieve them with CPs if necessary.

I started out as an creative writing major but ended up an econ/social science major. Couldn't stand the creative writing people. Good decision all around (Nerdy Asian chicks who liked comics were also a lot easier to pull than the fauxhemians who were more interested in posturing and, in my limited experience, were generally lazy in bed)
