i.e.; the glory and freshness of a dream

Life Update 

So if you guys follow me on instagram (which if you don't, then please do! hehe), you may have seen this photo from a couple weeks ago, in which I am holding a bouquet of flowers! The flowers were from my parents, who bought them for me as congratulatory flowers for ... my acceptance to Ewha University in Seoul! :D Yeyeyeye!

If you haven't heard already, I'm going to Seoul in late August for an exchange term, and obviously I'm over the moon about it. I'll get to spend a whole four months in Korea -- it's like a dream come true. I'm pretty sure I won't want to come back afterwards LOL.

Anyways, I'm just sharing with you some more photos of the flowers. I have a number of empty alcohol bottles at my place, y'know, after some funtimes from nights long past LOL, so I started playing with them. Turns out they make pretty good vases.

I'll post more updates about my trip to Korea as they arise. :) I'm really excited to be able to blog about my trip, and hopefully I'll be able to start delving into vlogging as well. :)

Also, I made a new ask.fm account recently, and it's so exciting to find new questions in my inbox! So please, click and ask away! :D

Lastly, Happy Father's Day to all the awesome daddies out there! ^ ^

i.e.; dances with the daffodils

[line from the poem I wandered lonely as a cloud by William Wordsworth]

Is it just me, or recently, have my roommates' faces shown up on my blog more often than mine? LOL in my house, we jokingly refer to it as 'debuting', which G has already done in this post. Let me introduce to you C, who is actually no stranger to my blog; she was previously seen in this post... the bottom half of her, anyway. ;D (hehehe...)



We took these photos for the 'street style' segment of my style column, "Machine Wash Only" for Imprint (my campus newspaper). The article should be up online in about a week here, so click if you're interested! :) 



The selling point for these photos are the printed shorts! (I named the segment for this week 'Printed Bottoms Up' LOL.) C is rocking some floral high-waisted shorts from Joe Fresh, while G's adorable panda shorts are from Bluenotes.





C wore her shorts with a denim blazer by Guess (I'm actually quite envious, I'm a fan of the brand hehe). Meanwhile, G paired her panda shorts with an aqua chiffon top for a very summery feel.



Thanks, you two, for being such good sports! :) And as always, thanks for reading!

i.e.; [inspired] monochrome

A rather monochromatic collecting of photos gratuitously collected from tumblr depicting stuff I want in my closet. In case you haven't heard, shades of both black and white are in this season -- I know this because I spent a solid two hours looking up trends as I was writing my style column for Imprint this week -- if you're interested, I named it "Machine Wash Only" and you can check it out here. (shamelessly self-plugging LOL)

I accidentally missed a week of posting due to a heinously busy schedule, so please forgive me! However, it was in part due to some fantastically great news, which I shall share sometime soon, because it deserves its own post. (:

In the meantime, stay cool, everyone! <3

i.e.; we dared to claim the sky

At last~! I finally had the time to post these photo, which were taken back in late April, during exam time of the winter term. They were taken the same day as this post. I went out with X and two of my roommates, A and G, with the intention of an outfit photoshoot as well as A and G's 'debut' on my blog. :)

Meet two of my beloved roomies, who had a huge part in making my second year in university that much better. <3

You can gradually see the sun setting as the photos go on... haha. We took a ramble around Waterloo Park for this shoot -- walking on train tracks, looking at the alpacas in the mini zoo, sitting on the edge of the gazebo by the pond, posing (we tried) on a bridge, and ending it with more train tracks. 

Photocreds again, to X for the photos. Thank you for capturing so many of our beautiful moments, and perhaps twice as many derp ones. LOL.

Love all your faces. :)

i.e.; [inspired] bring the boys out

Hey loves,

It's the beginning of the spring term and I am this close to being behind on my readings. Well, not that that's anything new, but I am determined to do well, so hopefully, the upcoming weeks will see more trips to the library... or whatever. LOL.

I haven't been able to edit photos this past week because I've been running around trying to get all the pieces of my exchange application together (insert blurb about being a terrible blogger here/insert second blurb about priorities and bad time management), so please accept this batch of men's fashion/eye candy for now. ;)
