Plans for my 21st

So as the semester winds down and I sit on my couch itching for pack my room up in boxes and return home to my cluttered room and kitten, I cannot help but begin to gather ideas that I want to put into place for my magical twenty-first year on Earth.

First and foremost, I want to become more aware of things that I am spending my money on.  I feel like I am not a person who splurges on purchases or goes on constant shopping sprees, but I just feel like my money withers away just as quickly.  So I would like to begin to write down everything that I, spend my money on.  After finding a house tour of Kate Bingaman-Burt and her husband's apartmetn on Apartment Therapy, I was completely obsessed.  She has found a creative way to do document her spending.  As a fellow lover of obsessive behavior, I can fully appreciate her drawn out replications of credit card bills, drawings of strangers' mixtapes, and written-out lists.
Second, I would like to perfect my new house.  I want a room like they have in the magazines.  I am thinking a cozy and warm grey with lots of art on the walls and my beautiful gold mirror.  Of course these are all pictures of my dream home, I am hoping to pull some of the details into my pad.




Third, I think I would like to impose some therapy upon myself and do a drawing a day... I am going to need inspiration come fall for BFA reviews and my three studio classes (yikes!).  So at this point in this boring post, I would like to celebrate the fact that I finally have filled a sketchbook from cover to cover! Yay!


So, I think that is a good start.  I mean besides being with my friends and snagging a few gift cards, these are my birthday wishes...
