Faren Bearowitz VS. The Blank Canvas

This, unfortunately, is a battle I tend to always lose!

I purchased one of these little acrylic sets for both my mother and myself lastnight. Sadly, I have absolutely no ideas of what to paint. I've been trying to get back into painting for months...or wanting to rather, but just can't seem to come up with any ideas.

Wish me luck!

Only the necessities.

Just as I said, knowing my luck the bookstore either would never have gotten the James McAvoy issue of Nylon Guys or would have actually changed out their magazines on time. They didn't have ANY issues, therefore I'm going with the former guess.

I did, however pick up some necessary items.

Then I went home and promptly purchased the magazine on eBay and subscribed to Netflix and have been binging on Doctor Who until the new series premieres this coming Saturday. I fear I've become slightly obsessed.

Candy.



I love this man. I love this song. I love this video.
I want a Scottish boy.

Not for girls? Pfffft!



I find it highly ironic that Nylon Guys says "not for girls" in the O.

If it wasn't for girls they would not put people who look like James McAvoy on the front of their magazine looking like...THAT.

I need this magazine in my life, but it's the Feb/March issue which means it's not on shelves anymore. I'm hoping it might still be at our highly inefficient bookstore, however. They don't seem to keep this magazine up-to-date. Knowing my luck they either never got it in or actually switched out a magazine when it was time for once.

If it's not there...there's always eBay ;)

Studio...?

I've wanted to turn this little apartment into a studio for a really long time. I've been putting it off because I don't want to live here forever, but I decided I wanted it to be a studio about 3 or more years ago and could have been using it ever since.

Lately, however, I've been considering it more seriously, but it needs a lot of work.

Plenty of space for a studio.


Has a kitchen area with a sink. The cabinets will come in handy. The sink (and bathroom which is right across from the kitchen) would too, but there is no working plumbing.

There's a decent closet.

This area (on the other side of the skeleton partition) is where I want to put my desk. I've considered turning the partition into a bookshelf or turning it back into a wall.

My cousins took it upon themselves to graffiti the place up at some point while we weren't living in this house.

Easter!

The Easter Bunny brought me these crayons. The wrappers are friggin' adorable!

One of the boxes (he brought me 2) had this sweet prawn on it!

I made burgers for dinner. Chorizo-beef burgers with pepperjack cheese, and homemade chipotle mayo (well, semi-homemade. I plan to learn to make my own though!). Then we sat down to eat dinner and watch the new episode of Ultimate Recipe Showdown and one of the contestants made the exact. same. burger!

My mom was looking at my cup during dinner. Thought they came that way. It's cute how talented she thinks I am.




I spent most of the day cleaning the house and cooking (and breaking my "diet" by eating Easter candy)...and watching my Sunday Night "fat shows" (Kirstie Alley's Big Life and Ruby). I'm exhausted. Time to snuggle down in my bed.

Easter Eggs-cellent!!





I'm not a normal girl at all.
