not just a pretty face

As you can see from my last post, I am officially obsessed with Mad Men. My aunt mentioned that Jon Hamm hosted SNL this season, and after much searching I was able to watch the episode. I had no idea he was so funny! Check out this digital short:



or this (which is even better!)

Its a Mad Mad World

Pardon my absence recently, but it's because I have been too busy drinking the Kool-Aid. Or at least, the TV Kool-Aid. I hoped on the bandwagon and decided to start watching AMC's Mad Men, and boy oh boy am I hooked!

Granted I wasn't alive in the 60's, but this show certainly makes me wish I were. Everything from the cars, to the furniture, to the hair is perfect! I can't believe how polished the show is. It appears that no detail has been overlooked, which I'm sure is nearly impossible to do in a period piece of this magnitude.

Not only are the sets and wardrobes immaculate, the acting is INCREDIBLE! Jon Hamm plays Don Draper with such poise and confidence while hiding such a complex past. I applaud the casting director that found him. Wow. Clearly I'm obsessed!

All I want to do recently is re-do my studio. I blame it on design sponge and apartment therapy.

I need a tv stand, a place to put my dresser, lots of artwork, and want to paint my kitchen cabinets. I am dying for a desk like this:



So adorable!!

recently

Alright, so I've been really bad about updating this. Here's what's going on:

First of all, my internship is over. It was so amazing, and I'm so happy I was able to participate. But now I am just another American twenty-something caught up in the job hunt. How exciting.

But here's how I've been occupying my time rather than updating my blog:







I am now 23. (the photo however is from my second birthday.)









I can't stop eating these (Asian Pears! Yummmmm)











I miss my Anthropologie discount, but not so much the job itself.






I couldn't love my apartment anymore. The poster is the newest addition, and the tulips were a lovely valentine's day surprise.
