August?!!! — Natasha W

I don't really remember telling anyone that it was allowed to be August, already. There's only two more weeks before I go back to school for good, and I'm trying to convince myself that my comfy bed and loving parents won't be that hard to miss. But, I digress.

Last weekend I visited my close female housemate (she's my roommate, we are just the sad kind of people who think it's hilarious to continually joke about whether or not we actually like each other) in Seattle, where she's been working for the summer. Seattle has buildings and class like New York, but hills and people like San Francisco. Essentially, I loved it. We did so many things: Public Market, EMP Museum, Chihuly Glass and Garden Museum, Seattle Public Library, Pioneer Square, and SO MANY FOODS. It was awesome. I took a lot of pictures, as is my MO, and here they are for you now!!!! Happy Tuesday everyone! (PS: I am not much for captions, but I really like the caption feature on this new blog, so check em out!!)

how i know my close female housemate loves me: she takes to me to places with cool lighting
