Something Very Bright: October 2012
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Sunday, October 14, 2012. Lately I haven't been up to much, just a bit of this and that, including making this gem amongst Halloween decorations:. Sharpie and milk jug. I took this picture from my balcony:. Full moon over Chicago. I took a trip to the country, which looks like that:. And where the cemetaries are so old they are being eaten by trees, like this:. There are covered bridges in the country, like that:. That's me standing proudly in front. This month I ...

Something Very Bright: March 2013
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Wednesday, March 20, 2013. First Day of Spring. The high in Chicago today was 28! My birthday was this past weekend, and it was low-key and lovely. I spent it downtown, mostly wandering in and out of stores and window shopping, because nothing really grabbed my attention. I saw. Oz the Great and Powerful. I recently came across this. Are old, out of shape, and not flattering anymore (I have my suspicions to if they ever were flattering.), so new work pants are...

Something Very Bright: November 2012
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Where has November gone? Before I knew it, I had only blogged once this entire month, and it is now November 27. Haven't been up to much, but a few updates. 1 I have a mouse. A cute little gray mouse that likes to pop out when I'm sitting at my computer, nice and quiet. I find this cute, but also ballsy. Little mouse just wants to say hello, but now I have seen it, and can't let it go: it will have to die. Thursday, November 1, 2012.

Something Very Bright: Punta Cana
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2013/09/punta-cana.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Monday, September 2, 2013. The first week of July I went to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic! In short, it was a really nice, relaxing break from work; the weather was beautiful: breezy and not too humid or hot; and I took an excursion and saw more of the country. Now to plan next year's trip! Natural beach (i.e. not a resort beach). I loved the scenery of punta cana! September 23, 2013 at 2:11 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Chicago, IL, United States.

Something Very Bright: Resolution Update #8 (but really 6)
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2013/09/resolution-update-8-but-really-6.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Monday, September 2, 2013. Resolution Update #8 (but really 6). I've had an unintended hiatus from my blog, mostly due to laziness, but with a bit of too-much-summer-fun thrown in. But back to it: here's August. Resolution #1: Be good to my body. Result: 225% (this might be the highest I've ever gotten). A Go to the gym once a week: 8/4 (200%! I'm kind of a gym-whiz now). C Drink a glass of green tea once a week: 18/4 (450%! Resolution #2: Be more mindful. I want ...

Something Very Bright: September 2012
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Sunday, September 30, 2012. On the whole, I was underwhelmed with Emmys fashion this year: in my opinion, there was nothing jaw-droppingly amazing or horrible, but lots of run-of-the-mill nice looks. Are the celebrities already trying to save their best for the Oscars? See below for my picks. Kind of a random pick, but I like the blue gauzy parts with gold, though I think it might look better with one less gauzy/drapey part. Sunday, September 23, 2012. I don't nee...

Something Very Bright: May 2013
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Sunday, May 12, 2013. Met Costume Gala 2013. Below are my favorite looks from the event, dressing for the theme "Punk: Chaos to Couture.". She was some sort of guest judge at the event, but her outfit might just be the most hideous thing I've ever seen. Escape Chicago: California in April. And I was rewarded: the sky looked like this when I arrived:. And my dad's garden was chock-full of flowers, including the never-ending terrace of amaryllis:. My goal for this ...

Something Very Bright: February 2013
http://somethingverybright.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
A place for the bright parts of my life. Tuesday, February 26, 2013. Awards season is finally winding down, but saved the biggest and best for last: the Oscars. My boyfriend Seth Macfarlane hosted, and while he wasn't that funny, he sure looked good. AND he can sing and dance. I wasn't blown away by any of the night's fashion, but see my favorites, below. I have a girl crush on Jennifer Lawrence, and have been reliving her trip to the stage via posts on Buzz Feed:. Natalie Portman at the Vanity Fair party.
