Ever get the urge to just run away - to get in your car and start driving, no turning back... ?

I never knew that feeling until just a couple days ago when, so quickly, my world started closing in on me.

It's time for some big changes, and it starts today. It's time to focus on me and what I want, rather than give everything I have for someone else.

Plan number one: make this weekend a great one. And perhaps start in on some DIY's that I have been promising for so long. I haven't made anything in awhile and I think it's just the de-stressor I need :)

Hope you have a great weekend, too.

xoxo



P.S. Don't forget about the giveaway - only a few more days!

So, I think my mental vacation has gone on long enough.

Have you ever just had one of those weeks where the stress of work - or school, or however you fill your 9-5 - is more than you can handle? I have been so bogged down that my head can't deal with any intellectual overflow from the outside world - I've only made it to page 34 of the light reading I started almost 2 weeks ago. Ridic. When I finally (and fully) kick this feeling, I believe I will need a serious night out! Ladies, strap on your boozin' shoes.

Anyways, here's some stuff that did manage to catch my attention this past week:

I miss NYC: topshopocalypse.

a complete list of the different kinds of people there are.

spring has sprung in DC.

a high school friend's start up is taking off, big time.

origami goes high fashion.

the freakishly-real Big Man at the Hirshhorn.
