( 13 yadda? | yaddayadda...) six o'five. [27 Mar 2008|05:28pm] [ music | chromatics - i'm on fire. ] NEWS UPDATE: -I GOT THE JOB AT LACOSTE!!!! -i am so excited. it is such a good opportunity to get experience within the industry and will look so good on my resume. plus i get a 70% discount. psssshha that almost puts it in my price range. -the fashion show was a success. -i found an amazing record store yesterday that is like five minutes from my house and i got 3. elliott smith, fats domino, and devo. i couldn't believe it. i almost went back today but i can't waste all of my loan money on records and doo-dads and new clothes. maybe i will go back next week. -i started a new painting. it's a self portrait. -my keith haring presentation went well. after i laid awake for two entire nights worrying about it. thank goodness. =) -my new sewing machine is amazing. -i have been obsessively watching space documentaries. they have entire documentaries on anything you can think of. the cosmos, dark matter, black holes, what have you. there is an great series about space that was aired on BBC narrated by Sam Neill (jurassic park), and ever since i finished those i can't stop. i almost feel like there is nothing else worth learning or thinking about at the moment. definitely a contributing factor to my sleep deprivation. -my 21st birthday is some day soon. april 7, 2008. i think we might go bowling. because bars are for bimbos. -kimya dawson april 19! -oh and i am thinking new york soon.

( 2 yadda? | yaddayadda...) i am eating soup. this is risky business. [24 Jan 2008|06:01pm] [ music | the moldy peaches. anyone else but you. ] the temperature when i woke up for school this morning fell somewhere below zero degrees fahrenheit. and having to crawl out from under my electric blanket, step outside, and drive away in my frozen car could certainly be considered some form of torture. perhaps like biting into ice cream with sensitive teeth. since my last post: -christmas was a delight. i searched for weeks for ugly festive sweaters for each and every one of my family members which was not an easy task. it took much thrift store digging. but i was successful. and everyone participated which made my day. although the photos i have to show for it are completely inadequate because i was too busy playing guitar hero. -i spent new years at tone bone and megan's. we drank margaritas, ate pizza, and danced to hall and oats and destiny's child. we also made another rap it could be the best. -i went to los angeles. for a week or so. some highlights of my trip would be: honoring the tradition of box canyon by donating yet another toilet down the mountain, the comedy club and sarah silverman, the getty with chelsea, ryan gosling at in n out, H&M, jamba juice, morgan and weston liggera, the cocktail party and boxed wine, my fake fur coat from hidden treasures for $1, some millionaire beach house including an original picasso and multiple keith haring originals and a latte maker, gravity hill in the scion, lots and lots of mates of state (it had been a while), the jewish deli with chelsea, chinatown and asian candy, driving to las vegas with smellodie, seeing people i had not seen for a long long time, and being harassed while using the red man jack n the box bathroom. -upon my return...i immediately returned to school. it has been wonderful so far despite the weather. i really love my history of modern art class and also the fact that i will soon possess the ability to make patterns for clothing. i have started applying for summer internships. in both los angeles and new york. i am going to submit a garment or two for the fashion show in march. I also promised this girl that i would model for her. scary stuff. -dani and wes are here in kansas now. for about a month or so. we have much to do and little time. also my brother will be turning 26 tomorrow. ( ma famille ) -laura.

( 2 yadda? | yaddayadda...) next semester: [26 Dec 2007|04:56pm] [ music | the pretenders. ] - CAD(computer assisted design)- pattern design. - CAD - garment design. - image management. - business communications. - art history - 20th century. it should be a pretty good one. i am taking 14 hours. i am excited for it but also a tad bit weary. yikes for the business communications. but oh well. i will also be looking for a new job and hopefully will have an internship lined up for the summer. christmas was wonderful. it's so nice spending so much time with my family. we did nothing but eat, drink wine, and play video games. i am obsessed with guitar hero three its the best. in other news, i am leaving in nine days for california. to meet this guy: hehe. i'm not funny. but really i hope it's not too cold to go to the beach and i can't wait to get me some jamba jamba. <3. -laura diane kelsey.
