work or play?

daydreaming of nothing? 

not today! 

at work daydreaming of traveling ~ one of my true loves. 

my boyfriend left this morning to fly up north.

^ bye bye ri ^

he got accepted to a start up school at stanford (smarty pants). 

while he travels and networks with (probably) the 1%, 

im sitting here in the glass cage of emotion (thats what i call the showroom).

 my work is a beautiful glass building, with beautiful luxury cars inside, 

and beautiful people roaming the streets outside (downtown la jolla). 

but the empty feeling of not being able to leave when i please,

travel when i want.

i can go on & on.

this is where my mind is taking a walk right now...

^ rome^

 ^night trains on the 4th of july from italy to france^

^the crystal blue water at the beaches in nice, france^

 ^looking up at big ben^

  ^meeting swiss girls on the train from nice to monaco & showing them how to gamble for ^

their first time at the monte carlo casino

 ^brown baggin' wine in monaco while waiting for a bus (classy, i know) ^

  ^hostel view in rome, the streets in rome, the people in rome, the feeling in rome ^

 ^rome^

 ^waiting for the next trian in sweden (who wouldnt mind missing a train with a view like this!)^

 ^making traditional flower wreaths in sweden for midsummer with new friends^

 ^waiting for trains (a recurring situation that was annoying at the time, but i dearly miss now)^

this is me

i think im starting this blog because i have no one else to vent to but myself, so naturally i would turn to something i am familiar with, social media.

i work at a ferrari & maserati showroom as a "social media/ online marketing specialist" 

(well, that would be my title), but working here is far from who i actually am. 

im a hippie at heart & neurotic at times (lately all of the time). 
i would rather not do my hair or
 make-up & go to the beach then to be at work and be someone that im not.

i ♥ music.

 i interned at a local radio station for a year before i got my big girl job at ferrari & maserati.

 i adored it, but to be to be honest, there is no money in radio. it is sad. 

i go to coachella every year and my "thing" to do" (besides being a beach bum) is go to a good show

 at a small, hole-in-the wall venue.

i ♥ taking pictures with my old ass '88 minolta film camera. 

 

the problem with film these days is that it cost more to develop the film 
(or to even find a place that still develops film)
 then to buy the actual ancient camera!

what has the world come to?

i also ♥ traveling.

i traveled all over europe last summer.

london, england

barcelona, spain

stockholm, sweden

st.gallen, switzerland

rome, italy

nice, france

monte carlo, monaco

dublin, ireland,

berlin, germany

 ...and fell in love 

^ midsummer party in sweden ^

i now live with my boyfriend on the beach in the cutest beach cottage.

with our black puggle, rusty.

or rustman, rustman puggleman, puggle master, poopy.... (it goes on & on).

^ my fam ^

since then i have the traveling itch, but my job holds me down from doing anything anymore! 

(well, that is my complaint lately).

working 5-6 days a week will really disable a person.

am i being irrationally? 

i guess if you have a career, boyfriend, dog, and adorable house you might have it all~

but there is something inside that says, "i want more!"

I honestly cant tell if im crazy or is the grass always greener on the other side??

my boyfriend is sick of hearing my "chick probs", so here i am.

answers & comments are welcome, i can take any kind of criticism-

i think i need it!

until next time.
