if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it

we like rings, do you?







show us your favorite rings!

welcome to the winter of our discontent.

apologies to our lovely readers, we've both been going insane with school (if you think felicity had it bad, she had nothing on us!). we're both juniors in college and this is when things start to get a little crazy...you know, in preparation for the real world and all that jazz. on top of the mountains of reading that we both have in our perspective majors, it doesn't help that the college football season starts tomorrow as well...basically, our only time to leave our apartments and talk to people other than our roommates, providing an excellent excuse to put off that reading you didn't want to do. there's boy drama and friend issues, as always, and it's just been really hectic.

anyways, we'd like to take the time to ask what you like on here, and what you'd like to see! more witty commentary? fashion? movie clips? west wing references? you ask, we'll see what we can do to make you happy.

hope you all are doing well!

go bears!

As the lovely Josephine pointed out, I've moved away from our beloved Los Angeles to Berkeley. Why? I have a list!


1. Best school ever. I'm biased, obviously, but really, ranked #1 public school in the country! It's been my dream school, since I was about twelve, very happy to finally be here. If you want to read about my adventures at Cal, go here :)
2. The weather: it's not always hot! It gets chilly here. Like, you can FEEL the seasons. Not only is it nice being able to differentiate summer from fall, but it's an excuse to buy awesome sweaters, coats, boots, scarves, gloves, hats...an excuse to shop for a whole new wardrobe, basically.
3. The food. I'm not half as big of a foodie as Josephine, but even I appreciate how amazing all the restaurants are up here. I can't wait to try all these new places; I'm a picky eater but I want to expand my horizons. Still, I can't help but reverting to my comfort foods--last night my friend Alex and I went to a Jewish deli, Saul's, and had the BEST matzo ball soup and latke of my LIFE. Sorry Mom, this was just mind-blowingly good.
4. We're "official" rivals with Stanford. I hate Stanford, they have a fucking TREE as their mascot. No thanks, GO BEARS!
5. Fifteen minutes away from San Francisco/amazing food/good friends/concerts!! I really want to go see the Decemberists in October.
6. THE BOYS ARE SO CUTE. Sooooooo cute. So much better (than most) boys at home. Though there is one at home that I do miss!
7. Getting to start over; our hometown was one where everyone knew everything about everyone...which is definitely as annoying as it sounds.
8. Walking. In LA, you can't really walk anywhere, you have to drive. I hate driving with a passion, it's so stressful! I love that you can walk anywhere here, or if you're feeling lazy, take a bus (they actually have an efficient bus system!!!) or the BART.
9. Not living at home. Pretty sure this is self-explanatory :)
10. And finally (for now), growing up. I'm learning how to be self-dependent, and how to survive on my own.

Here is a dancing bear for your time:



xo!

Instant Gratification Takes Too Long

Oops, Blog neglect :/

ADD post ahead - 

I've been over here

Andrea has been in Mexico (lucky!) until yesterday, although now she is gone AGAIN to Berkeley forever (sort of). So, I am wishing her the best of luck and counting down until I get to go visit (so she can show me all the good shopping up there).

We saw the Gin Blossoms perform last night, which was awesome!

Here's a picture of Buster:

Here's a sort of related picture :)
