so. i haven’t posted anything in forever and i had a great reason to. i was working on an awesome show called FAMILY, written and directed by Tina Satter, artistic director of Half Straddle - a new awesome theater company that i have the pleasure of being a part of. click here for more info and to read our awesome reviews!

i start grad school at Pratt next week for Communications Design and i’m kind of getting my life together in order to make the transition back into student-hood as smooth as possible. (i got a freakin’ student i.d.! awes!!!) part of that includes rearranging my apartment to make a better work space, and in the process throw out a ton of shit. in my riffling through papers today, i found the following notes i took from watching the home shopping network at my parents house last year. whenever i’m back in NJ, i will only watch the home shopping network (i don’t own a tv myself). the people on that channel are the best bullshitters in the world. here are my notes :

CLASSIC WAIST
CROSS STRETCH
DENIM BOOT CUT PANTS

“and you do have side slits…”

“oh! no shock there, the velvet shirt is sold out.”

“it will be a go-to pant…”

amazing.
