s q u i r r e l

as i was walking through the pratt campus, 
i came across this squirrel perfectly situated
on top of a sculpture.
i believe it was trying to 
relay a message to the rest of the 
pratt squirrel community...



mom, you are so awesome... love you!

my mom picked up knitting recently.
a package arrived from cali with
3 sets of hats and scarves.
two for me and the brown set for my bf. 
i told my mom that the hats were way too
small for my head, and she basically told me
that it's my fault for having an abnormally
large sized head...
haha thanks mom!

and he is full of smiles

ellis jr... you are awesome



mr. yorick, you are awesome...

miss angie is super allergic to MOST cats.
yes this one too.
he showed me nonstop affection before and
after I had put food and water in the bowls.
purred, licked me and my phone (while i was
trying to take pics), and covered me all
over with his soft cat hair. 
as a result, walked out of the apt with itchy
red eyes, stuffy nose, and sneezes. 
but it was all worth it... 
you're awesome mr. yorick!



my awesome thanksgiving with the raphael's...

special thanks to the Raphael's for having me over and letting
me feast with the family. Had an amazing time cooking, drinking,
 eating, going out for walks with Lambi, reuniting with Pouchon,

Simply awesomeness...
