serious lack of blogging lately— but i guess that’s my prerogative (you’re welcome for getting that britney spears song stuck in your head).  i’ve just been soo overwhelmed with my own creativity that i haven’t known how to start blogging about everything (…heh.).  am starting with this post, which will serve as a long-overdue thank you note.

remember when my mom called, asking for my blog address, so she could show her friends my apartment’s color scheme?  well, it’s because she and her friends are AMAZING and wanted to buy me PRESENTS!

mrs. c and mrs. h saw that picture of my orange cubes and turquoise table, and didn’t think my feet fit in the color scheme, so they sent me the BEST SOCKS EVER:

literally could not be more perfect.  thanks, mrs. c and mrs. h!

my mom found me this adorable tray, but i had nowhere to display it, so i took the desk out of my room and made it into a (temporary-ish) entry table, which has seriously improved my quality of life so much.  voila:

…and here’s the tray, doing its job:

thanks, mom!
