If I could afford one brand of clothing, it would be Free People. If you don't know this already, I secretly want to live the life of a vagabond, wandering the world, free of attachment. While you cringe as that 'dude' in the dreadlocks throws a frisbee on the quad, the one who smells of a mix of tomato soup, grandma's knitting needles and cinnamon incense, I view him as my hero. I am plummeted into an alternative reality where I myself have dreads down my back, metal in my face and tattoos sleeving my arms. Then reality hits and I realize I would prefer to live the 'vagabond' life vicariously through the wardrobe of a free spirited line of clothing, FREE PEOPLE. Barbed wire bicep tats never looked too good on me anyway. Here's to the brand that inspired fantastic day dreams.

and may the odds forever be in your favor

I have finally finished all my finals and am back in the good graces of the company of my family, friends and loved ones. I must admit, I miss home more than I'd like to say. Maybe it's the christmas caroling party my mother had planned or the pounds of food waiting for me in the pantry, but I really needed home. It is definitely great to be back.

Here are a few shots Gaby and I took next to a memorial monument by her house. An old man in a car kindly pulled over to share with us the history of the stone.
