clif notes
the trip consisted of ten days sailing around the bahamas with my parents following a well known boat race around the abacos islands. at the end of the ten days my parents dropped cresson and i off at one of the main islands where we headed to the airport and hopped on a plane to […]
new favorites
wangari maathai and debbi carlos i’ve almost been awake twenty four hours. i woke up at 5:30 to go to jubilee for the first time in two years. good to be back, but so strange not recognizing any faces from the old days. i rode my bike to the pig to get some coffee before […]
long overdue
i’m not sure where along this road i started getting so lucky with friends. upon going to high school i had to split from almost every friend i had because of zoning. at this new school i remember being told about how freshman were considered “wall huggers” which i thought was silly until the first […]
busy fingers
today was the most productive day in the life of kimk. i think a mixture of warm sunny weather and tricking myself into believing that everyone i know is out of town really got me into the spring cleaning spirit. here’s my day so far: ✔ waking up to read to pg 80 of invisible […]
crafty things
steen’s bachelorette party invites (censored of course) smiles & sketchbooks. (cropped because it was too early and very rushed, and they would hate me forever if i didn’t)
documentation
unpacking the car still unpacking the car walking from the car to the airport speeding through the airport to get a bagel getting the bagel
i used to run track—this is called the final stretch
Almost finished! I can’t wait for my family to come in saturday—mostly because none of my friends have met my parents, and now they will see why I am me. I just got off the phone with my grandpa who isn’t recovering as fast as he thought he would from his foot surgery. He feels […]
light at the end of the tunnel
hello readers! I’m alive, I swear! graduation has proved to be a way bigger project than I had expected. Since last thursday I have yet to hit the sack before 4 a.m. But I’m on a roll, and I’m glad I got into work mode early on, despite that it has been wonderful outside lately. […]
creeks
I just finished watching my favorite Dawson’s Creek episode. The one where Pacey and Joey get locked into the big Kmart store, and have to use the Pj’s and toothbrushes from the shelves, get to watch movies on the plethora of tv’s agains the wall and, at the end of the night, share a sleeping […]
itchin to get outta here
fishing, reading, boating, tanning, beaching, sand boarding, frying, grilling, eating, playing, exploring, thinking, dreaming, writing, movie-ing, floating, swimming, bocce-ing, drinking, sitting. I can’t wait. But I have to. One more week!
good morning
This morning was one of the good ones. I had to wake up early to drop Lindsey off at work, but I like saving her. I went back home and slept more, burying under my comforter to block the bright overcast skies that were somehow filling my room with bright. I woke up finally after […]
a soulful shade of blue
Yesterday was a significant improvement. Things that helped: working with wonderful people, learning korean with donnie, henry’s-ing with a good latte and a good book, watching A Single Man and drooling over pretty boys, eating homemade soup with josiah (the soup-chef) while drinking good red wine and listening to neko, talking with my sister about […]

portfolio photo shoot: trial 1 (un-edited) thoughts: i’m liking the wood background
adequacy
Lately I’ve felt weird. I think it is probably just symptoms of Senioritis, but I feel like I’ve been tested this semester with adequacy issues. First off, this semester I have my internship at a design firm in Kansas City. I know I’ve been doing this design jig for 4 years almost, but every week […]
dream day in lawrence
To all my Lawrence readers: if you could have a dream day in Lawrence what would it be? I finally had mine Friday. After my early class ended, I headed to Mass St. to roam. It’s my favorite place to wander. I had called The Dusty Bookshelf earlier to check on a book, and Josiah […]
Ketching Up
finally posted pictures from old adventures. just blowing of the dust, i guess..
mal organisée
I think I’m scared of writing because it makes me organize the thoughts in my head. Thus the long hiatus. It’s not that things aren’t happening in my life. Quite the contrary—the world is turning, the snow is melting, finally. I’ve started my internship at Willoughby, which has really changed my views on working for […]
pelo de gato
almost INDUBITABLY every time i go somewhere for the first time on the first day it is guaranteed to RAIN.. I think I posted about this a long time ago when I first started my blog. The first week I lived in Nashville it greeted me with ceaseless showers; then Germany, then Ireland, then Krakow […]

gifting
TO: Lindsey LOVE: Me roommate christmas shopping is complete!
YIKES
It’s time for an update, sorry guys. Thanksgiving came and went, and of course while being confined in the Middle-of-Nowhere, Alabama without cell service, internet and 5 TV channel options with a satellite, I had an amazingly relaxing time and got nothing school-related accomplished. Last night I stayed up until my class this morning finishing […]
getting older
drinking bourbon and cokes with my aunt and uncle talking about graduating and peace corps how did time go by so fast?
