Broader Scale

Being a Chicagoan and all, I'm left with dealing with constantly fluctuating temperatures, but I've yet to get used to my fluctuating moods that come with the weather change. I still manage to get myself in a rut when the cold weather rolls around and it's hard to pick myself up when I'm feeling blue. I try to keep myself occupied and remind myself that things aren't so bad and that the world around me isn't actually dead like it appears. It's all just hibernating.
So I've kept myself pretty busy since friends have gotten back from school, for winter break. I visited the Sears Tower (now known as the Willis Tower, ick) for the first time ever... yeah, I've lived here my whole life and had never actually been to the top of the tower till just the other day. I went to a couple Christmas parties, did a little bit of shopping, had a few dinner get-togethers with friends, and lots more. Here are some photos from the past few weeks.

A view from inside of a Walgreens. 
 


Sister with a fellow friend's cat Mazzy. Kodak moment right here.
 


 In line, waiting to get to the top of the Sears Tower.







The sister and me.




 


Couldn't help but take picture of my friend's chandelier, at dinner time.

And that's all for now folks.
Let me know how you cope with winter blues if ya've got 'em.

Within, Without

I haven't got a whole lot to say, but I just wanted to say Happy New Year to all and I'd like to hear your guys' New Year resolution(s) and share my own.

Well, first of all, I'm going to start posting a lot more on here since I feel like I've got a lot to share.
In general I'm going to work harder at making my dreams come true and always keeping my head up high on my way to reaching my goals.
I'd really like to have a new job and a new home before 2014 rolls around.
I want to learn more about the universe, myself and how I connect to everything; become one with my surroundings.

Aaand I would like to solidify plans on starting school. So there ya go. Tell me yours.

Now here are some photos from what I wore today:




Been wearing these two necklaces non-stop for the past couple of months honestly. A star and the "Om" symbol.

 

All jewelry thrifted 



everything thrifted except Doc Marten boots which were a gift and were DIYed since they once went all the way up to my knees.

Well, tootles!
