UGGly Society

Honestly, everyone judges. 
Don't deny it. 
I've seen (and done) plenty of smirks on the sidewalks.
Heard (and said) lots of nasty things.
Perhaps, we are just a society filled with criticism.
Whether constructive or destructive, on a daily basis we criticize.

One particular criticism I enjoy is the daily uniformic style of SU students.
Yes, you have heard this numerous times, 
but I must insist on my little connection I have made.
They say your style reflects your personality.
Oh my! If this is true...
You Uggs lovers out there might have to think twice before snuggling your toes into that fur!

So after watching Sicko, I was thoroughly and disgustingly disappointed by the US health care system.
So much so that I wanted to buy a one way ticket to Canada, France, or Britain [even Cuba].
Many Americans have come to a discernment that Universal Health Care = Socialism.
Really?! Socialism. That 3 syllable word has caused millions of Americans to be selfish.
I believe in the motto Sharing is Caring.
Oh my fellow Americans aren't we all caring? or at least willing to share?

So while I walked around campus and saw about eighty percent of the females wearing Uggs,
I started to think...
Ugg wearers must have something in common -> the Love for UGGS. duh.
Yes. They all must follow a trend that our society has come to enjoy.
Oh but no! I bet not all those Uggs lovers would consider following something else...Sharing.
No, I'm not talking about sharing lip glosses, high heels, glittery shirts, or even boys.
I'm talking about sharing some of your income to the needy.
A part of your income going to someone who just had a heart attack, a woman giving birth, a cancer patient, or anyone going through the hospital doors. 
I must not doubt all these Uggs lovers...Uggs are just in style.
Then why can't helping be in style? 
Like you know, buying starbucks coffee or eating organic foods.

Im so puzzled by how American society works,
I mean we tip people at restaurants,
Why can't we give a little percentage to our sickly neighbors?
All I know is something has to change.
When sharing becomes the "it" thing,
Please my Uggs friends, keep up with the trend.

Have no fear Uggs,
I hope your owner will take care of you
Like they would care for their fellow humans.



Stand up for what you believe in.
Take the risks, call the shots.

Catching the Spring Fever Already.

So while some of you are still narrowing down your xmas list,
a bad case of spring fever has been catching up on me.
Oh god! I haven't even started with the shoes. 
Next time.


This multi circular scarf is multi-perfect.
winter. spring. summer. fall.


the color says it all.
the structure is perfect for daily use.
marc jacobs you are my sunshine.


spring inspiration: Phillip Lim
monotone color with a pop.
ruffles with structure.
and wow, the bow belt.
can't wait
to give this a shot.

Unsatisfactory Cravings.

You ask for things.
You don't get it.
You like things.
You don't get it.
Maybe it's because you're selfish.
No, maybe the world is just not fair.
You deal with it.
But in the end, you still have your unsatisfactory cravings.

I'm Shooting For A Better 09.

Negative Space.

October has gone and passed. 
Candles on homemade cakes have blown.
Masks have covered our identities.
Last night, hope was given and change is finally here.
Yet I feel I am still in a negative space trying to fill in the the lines that are yet to be drawn firmly.


Filling in the lines of boredom:


This isn't a shooting game. It's me.

bittersweet summer

i did a blog last year and i failed with keeping up with it.maybe this year will be better.
i haven't decided what i'll be putting up, but i think i'll start off with the past.
im working on clearing my past and keep myself in the present. its been a process.

i worked and worked and worked all summer. in the end i was burned. i regret it sometimes, but it led to some good things.

bang: seeing my sister graduate. she's way cooler than i could ever be.

shot: photo shoot around Clinton before going to her graduation. lame.

boom: short family trip to the mountains & lakes was refreshing. my little cousin Louise shows it all.

bam: i had a bummer bday & beginning of july. Justine got tickets to John Mayer. It was amazing and a great release. Johnny fantastic.


shabang: everything felt like it was going downfall. too many things shot me at the same time, so i booked a ticket to california and stayed there until the school started. it was the best decision i've ever made. 
shot you.
