all the lights

it's holiday time in tacoma/seattle! this weekend i headed up to seattle for a concert (The Shins!- post to come) and it was great to see the city all dazzled for the holidays. all the christmas lights and trees make me ache for home. Luckily only 2 finals, and 4 days stand in my way until i'm back in san francisco! i also headed to zoo lights and saw some feisty tiger cubs. happy monday! (i'm officially done with accounting!)

hey marseilles!

passion pit

my roommate & i spent labor day in seattle at bumbershoot. it was such a fun (& exhausting) day! we saw best coast, m83 (crazy mosh pit!), the pains of being pure at heart, kina grannis, hey marseilles, & passion pit. after all the musical fun we walked over to dick's (a popular burger joint in seattle) for some cheeseburgers, fries, & shakes. it was my first bumbershoot experience but i can't wait for many more in the future.

weekend life

donuts on donuts

really cute crumpet shop

this weekend was a blast! it started out on saturday when some friends & i headed north to seattle for the day. we ate some donuts (maple, bacon & peach), tried some piroshkis (rhubarb, beef & cheese, & salmon), bought flowers, & took in the sights of seattle. i hardly go up to seattle but when i do i'm always convinced that i'm eventually going to live there. that night we participated in a scavenger hunt that had my friends & i running all around the school. although we didn't win we had a great time & even got to pose with the trophy! on monday i went to bumbershoot- a super fun musical festival held in seattle- but more on that later.
