Ok, I admit that it was a little irresponsible of me to neglect my blog for two months. But in my defense, it's a lot harder than it looks. To make up for it, I made this fantastic collage which summarizes my Winter Break experience. It was ultimately defined by The Office (I watched all nine seasons and it was one of the best decisions of my life), a quarter pounder with cheese, zines, sparkling pomegranate juice from Trader Joe's, vanilla and cinnamon black tea from Trader Joe's, and Kanye West. Well actually, there's a lot more to it.
Here's an excerpt from a zine I made a few weeks ago:
New Habits
01. Obsessive tea-making
02. Saying the words "thang" and "thangz"
03. Texting people useless information at 3 in the morning
04. Accidentally impersonating people from The Office mid-conversation
05. Having dreams about characters from The Office
06. Mentally assigning characters from The Office to people at work
07. Jamming out to Shakira's "Hips Don't Lie" in the car
08. Ducking when the parrot flies around the house
09. Sleeping between 3 and 6 AM
10. Hoarding and scanning ads I find in old National Geographic magazines dating from 1936-1988 for future collage purposes
New Discoveries
01. A convincing Rookie article that made me like Kanye West a lot more and made me realize that just maybe we could be really good friends
02. The "Highway 61 Revisited" record I never knew I left behind
03. Havarti cheese
04. Giant stash of NatGeo magazines from the 1930s hiding in the garage
05. The joys of zine making
06. Trader Joe's tea
07. BB cream (I finally got around to buying some)
08. Indonesian salsa (it does not taste like something you dip your chips in)
09. My inner ping pong master
10. "German dungeon porn" as a phrase to be acted out in charades
Exciting Things I Did
01. Complete the Midwest Argonaut Vol. 4 with Maddy
02. Watch The Office
03. Make my very first zine
04. Go on a late night McDonald's run
05. Attend another grownup party with charades and Cards Against Humanity
06. Attend a white elephant party
07. Go ice skating*
08. Have lunch with Joel
09. Friend gatherings at the Osmon house
10. Go on a Target run with Rachelle
*At the time I wrote that, I assumed I was going to go ice skating within the next few days. I never actually did go ice skating.
