[ootd] fall is here.

It's fall in Brooklyn, getting cold, and I'm over 2 months in to the school year. Things are mighty hectic and I'm losing a lot of sleep, but I'm hanging in there. Here's my past 2 months in photos and [ootd]s.

Went to 2 concerts with the boyf, Local Natives  and The 1975. Each amazing in their own way, and the perfect way to forget about my stressful school life. 

One of my classes this year is drawing on location which means I get to get off campus to draw, for class! This was a lovely sunny day in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

Commence the [ootd]s, in which (in no order): 

I celebrate my 21st 

I go clubbing for the first time (and enjoyed it against my better judgement.)

I get my nose pierced 

ootd: a special day

I have to make this super-duper quick! I have a mid-term to cram for :(


So yesterday (now that's past 12...) was one of the best days ever. Arguably my best birthday ever. 

I don't like making a big deal out of my birthday, it's not public on any social-networking sites, and I won't tell you unless you ask. 

So when friends/loved ones pull something like this on me, I have nothing but feelings of gratefulness to the point where I feel bad about how much they've done.

Today my roommates (and my roommate's visiting friend) surprised me with a redecoration of my part of the dorm room, cake, presents and dinner (with help from my mom, thousands of miles away). I love them all. 

The 男友 gave me the sweetest presents ever and I'm so grateful to have him.

I'm so so so thankful for everyone in my life right now, I can't even express it in words..... so here instead are pictures from today.
