When you open my front door, this is what you see. The construction on Roncesvalles is the worst and there's still one more year left of it!

When I live in the US this fall the online shopping will get out of control.

Tintype necklaces by Erica Wiener, perhaps an end of semester gift to myself?

Done!

A few early 20th century photos from a friend's family I did some research on this semester.

Yesterday I hit the "send" button on an e-mail to one of my profs and successfully submitted the last assignment to complete my first year of grad school!

It's been pretty crazy since September with school and surgery right before Christmas and then back to school but it's over for the summer and soon I'll be off to Montreal.

Wasting some time

Oh Devendra Banhart if I could hang out with you it would probably be awesome.

I am horrible

So it's almost the end of March and it seems that I can't even commit to posting a monthly playlist these days. Sigh, I used to be so ambitious and now I'm just a crappy blog keeper, I guess the good part is that I don't seem to be disappointing anyone.

It turns out I'll be spending the better part of the summer in Montreal at an internship at the Canadian Centre for Architecture. I am super excited as the CCA was my first choice for my summer internship (required as part of my degree) and it looks like I've already found a place to live in the Plateau. I only know a handful of people living in Montreal so I anticipate some lonely days so I've come up with some things I'd like to get done this summer.

- Brush up on my french a.k.a actually learn how to speak french
- Finish my crochet granny square blanket which exists as a few squares shoved in a bag right now
- Work on a new art project in the same vein as my dead rapper cross stitches
- Read a whole bunch of books (including but not limited to: The Book of Negroes, The $12 Million Stuffed Shark, The Scarlett Letter)
- Ride my bike around town
- Fly home by myself, although not the most affordable option it should be noted here that I have a horrible fear of flying and it's about time I get on an airplane by myself!

Before all this I have to get through this last chunk of the semester and stop procrastinating....

A great find at the antique fair a few weeks ago.
