sunday streets

Golden Gate Kokikai Aikido picked a Bay Bridge setting for their demonstrations and instruction. San Francisco's first Sunday Streets event of the year shut down the Embarcadero from the AT&T Park to Pier 45.

This is we need in San Diego, in La Jolla, everywhere.

gd cars.

I went running today (yesterday). Sunday running is quite nice and relaxing—versus on weekdays when I constantly feel endangered. I was able to run for a while down Regents Rd right in the car lane. Later along my run I had to hop back on the concrete, and I think I have shin splints on my right leg. effing concrete. I want to be able to on the asphalt or whatever the road is made of instead of concrete during the whole run.

I really don't understand why girls wear flats, sandals, flip-flops, heels, boots,.. to school. Seriously. You know you have class in Peterson Hall or Solis or in Muir and you're gonna have to walk up Peterson Hill or the path to Muir. Are girls just sadistic, even to themselves? And there's no one really to impress, you're just going to fucking class. gd. And also, this is freaking UCSD, in La Jolla–kinda far from places–not Berkeley. Not a fashion capital nor close to earning status as a "scene". But then, I guess the majority of girls don't do sports and have never worn extremely comfortable running shoes.

Dude, someday when I have enough money, I'll make my own startup. (/start-up my own company? not too sure how to use this word.) Constructing shoes with gel heels and absorption shock and all that good stuff in running shoes, except just in a small layer in heels and boots and other non-running shoes. and collaborate with Dolce la vita or some other good shoe designer. Then you'll fo'realzz be able to dance all night in those heels.

shoes or dj equipment?

I would so love to own this pair of shoes. if they weren't half the price of a CDJ. Or more expensive than a pair of APCs. omg. So pretty. Plus .75" platform in the front. They're also almost the same price as a Pioneer DJM-400 on craigslist. What a steal. I would get the mixer if I didn't already have one. Way better than mine, too.


I need to get on oak's mailing list so I'll know when they'll have a sale.

Actually I should probably just buy it. One perfect pair of oxford heels to wear for the next 20 years. Economical, right? And black oxfords never go out of style.

just to make sure, I'm asking you: SHOULD I BUY expensive shoes???

(It's also a good percentage of my rent!)

I don't follow any blogs except a couple of my friends'; reading blogs isn't part of my daily online regimen. Only if I'm looking for some music and the search result shows some blogs, sure. But every once in a while I'll spend a couple hours looking at a few fashion blogs. I'm not really trendy or anything; I just like to wear whatever's comfortable and looks ok, not trying to really stand out. I enjoy looking at fashion blogs (again, only every so often) because of the beauty and art in the pieces and might find some inspiration for outfits for when I ever do need to dress up.

If you haven't heard of Sea of Shoes before, (you're late! =P jk) it's this super-popular blog by 17-year-old Jane Aldrige from Texas. RICH white kid with awesome taste in shoes and fashion (influenced greatly by her mother, also quite fashionable). Since her blog's rise in the fashion blogosphere, she's been featured in magazines, invited to photoshoots, and has finished a capsule collection with Urban Outfitters. One whole wall of her room is her shelf of shoes.

Okay, I'm done blogging about another blog for today. Don't have much else to say, you can go look at fashion blogs for yourself. =T

I'm not much into fashion, really. But I've not been doing much these past few days, (because there's simply not much to do here at this time. I need another book to read, don't feel like watching TV series, and don't have a car) and have been passing the time shopping online.

Realised that I quite like dark shirts and the sort of sophisticated/casual style. Haha. and thought I that I should look into nice black shoes to wear with my APCs, since I don't have any type of those shoes: flats, booties, heels, whatever non-sneakers.

I would so buy these two pairs..if I had the money. arrghh money. x___x;;; Spent a lot this month already on furniture and last month on other stuff. Blah.

But too expensive for me, and final sale (30%off) so if they don't fit I won't be able to return it and I'm too lazy to sell stuff online. I usually hate/would not give a thought to buying shoes that are so low (at least in the front)/close to the ground. I want at least half an inch platform in the front part, too. But I really like how these two pairs look. Anyone know of places which sell similar shoes but at a more affordable price?
