Life in Style

Before I leave for my college road trip part 2, I wanted to write a quick post featuring some very fun photos taken by my good friend Mia. This was probably one of the most fun and interesting shoots I've ever done considering I had to lie in the grass and have paint splattered all over my face. But once I saw those photos, I knew it was worth it. So a shout out to Mia for taking awesome photos for me over the past couple of years!  College Road Trip Part 2  My mom and I are heading out on the road again to begin another long trek to Arizona. We did this already before my freshman year but now the car we're driving is staying with me at school :) which I'm very happy about. Of course, no normal person can drive 27 hours straight through to Tucson which is why my mom and I have picked out several stops along the way to stop and look at. I'm hoping to blog at least once while I;m on the road so keep you're eyes peeled.. I'm v...

My most recent Summer Adventure took my mom and I to the Canadian Province of Nova Scotia, which is all the way east of Canada and actually isn't too far from Maine! On our last day in the province, we got to wander around the small but colorful Fisherman's Cove. The brightly painted shacks screamed take photos of me! However, this is the only 'fashion' blog post I did of this trip because most of my clothes were t-shirts and soccer shorts (ideal wear for our 'casual' vacation). Luckily, I was able to throw one necklace in my luggage and once I put that on top of my black and white plaid...voila! Somewhat of an outfit. Nonetheless, you couldn't help but smile looking at these houses (especially that yellow one!). I think Canadians spend every summer painting their houses a new color because not just the stores were colorful but every house all across the mainland were bright blue or red or white or green! It was so fun ...

One of my general education classes I'm taking this semester is called Light, Color, & Vision- an optical sciences course. This is one of the better science classes I've taken in a really long time and we have only just started with our first topic on light! Every two weeks or so, my teacher gives us one word that we have to journal about. There are no limits to what you can write about which is really cool in my opinion and something you wouldn't expect to be doing in a science class. Being the blogger that I am, I knew that I would have to try to make a blog post also relating to the word that I would have to write about out. Luminous is actually the second word in the journal assignment (I'm still working on photos for the first). The word luminous has a really mysterious but magical sound to it. I tend to envision a candle casting a soft glow around a room, nothing to harsh. So when I saw these lights one night walking around ca...
