Prosperity

This is my pearl necklace that I was talking about two posts down. You get to pick an oyster, and they open it up and look for a pearl...then you can make a necklace or ring out of it. I chose a necklace because I can wear it more. It's white gold with diamonds and saphires (my birthstone)~ My pearl was goldish...gold means prosperty in pearl language haha. I hope I prosper some what in my life.

Right now I'm kind of down. But it will pass~

I miss the wind

Back home in LA. I'm trying really really hard to focus on work. My studio final is THIS COMING FRIDAY OMG. And my M&M and Structures finals are on the following Tuesday. So December 4th, and 8th....UGH! I'm trying to make a 3D model of my culinary art school, and I'm failing incredibly badly at the moment...OH WELL. Here are some random photos from the trip:

A random painting in the financial district...I think it was the financial district..

<3 aww I saw how they made these...so cute~

This one was my favorite. I am obsessed with crocodiles..

My sister and I <3

A very tall tree & my sister/mom/moi

Outside of the Sheraton, they had seating areas to keep us toasty and warm

I can't get over this wall. I wish my room's walls were like this..

I'm too tall to sit in back...

What I was listening to on the way home.

Sipping Hot Tea

I'm sitting in the Sheraton lobby drinking some tea, trying to warm up my body. It's so cold...my family and I came back to the hotel an hour or so ago, from eating and walking around. Our hotel is right in Fisherman's Wharf, so everything is close by, but it's so freaking cold, that we were running around, trying to keep warm! Today is my mom's birthday! So we tried to do things she wanted to do, but she wanted to do things we wanted to do, so we kept going at it in a circle. It was fun though~ Before we ate, we went to a jewelry store that sells pearls~ My sister, mom, and I all bought a pearl~ My mom made hers into a ring, and my sister and I turned ours into necklaces. Very expensive...but something I will treasure~

Here are some random photos I took with my phone. I would upload the ones in my camera, but I forgot it in the car...yay me...

 

Entering San Francisco~ Bay Bridge! I have a fascination with bridges...I think they are cute.

 

Typical SF street..my dad loves driving here, while my mom hates to sit next to him while he drives here. I love San Francisco cause of all the unique houses...every building is different from the other...it's so beautiful~

Inside a supermarket.

I have no idea what this was, but it reminds me of a place in Zelda.....I loved it...it was breathtakingly beautiful..this photo is soooo crapy.

 

The oysters that we picked with our pearls insidea~ Mine is the bottom left one~  Our hotel is marine themed...I really like the waves on the walls~~

OK~ I'm gonna try to get some homework done here~~ BYE BYE FOR NOW~

Say Hello to My Little Friends

This is my desk...you can't see my comp, but this is where I do most of my work~ At the moment, my ENTIRE room is a horrible mess with everything from clothes to basswood and cutting mats and glue on the floor. I do my studio work in here too..but on the floor...so it gets incredibly messy. I'm using studio as an excuse for my mess...but I am a messy person to begin with. Bad lolo.

My newest "cute thing". I bought him during the summer I believe...he sits next to my glow in the dark Duck, and that other weird looking thing that I named "EHHHH".

My Hello Kitty that sits in my nailpolish collection~ I got her as a present from my sister~

I think this is my newest friend...I got this souvenier from my friend who went to study abroad in Barcelona, Paris, Berlin, and Italy during the summer~

When school is over, I'm gonna paint my room a more neutral color and start organizing, cause I go crazy with all the clutter sometimes. When I'm done, I'll show you~ Right now I'm too shy to show my floor haha~
