are you there blog? it's me, lauren.

i'm baaaccckkkkk. i'm always back. i think that will just be my standard greeting when i'm blogging from now on. anywayssss did you miss me? actually i kind of know you did because like evvvvvvverybody (emphasis on the v's because seriously guys, everybody) has been begging me to blog. you're welcome.

woooo today is my favorite holiday aka 7/11 aka free slurpee day and i am sooo excited. last year on 7/11, the little tricksters at the gramercy 7-11 put an out of order sign on the slurpee machine. it was abominable. so instead we filled our free slurpee cups with hot chocolate and marshmallows and it was nowhere near the same but i was NOT about to leave empty handed on free slurpee day. this year, i am hoping they will be more prepared for my arrival.

so lea and i moved into our new apartment. we are officially brooklyners. or brooklynites. ooo brooklynites i love that, i will use that. anyways we live in BK which is great and stuff but i have no idea where anything in brooklyn is. so if my apartment is not in my sight, i am lost. streets are incredibly more difficult when they are not in number order and when you have the WORST sense of direction in the world. also, we have an ice cream man that works like 21 hours a day. REALLY. the ice cream truck music is the new soundtrack to my life. which is reallllly annoying because the old soundtrack to my life was seal- kiss from a rose and i liked that SOOOO much better. honestly. it was ALWAYS in my head. and now it's like a twinkling little ice cream song which is really awful and i can't even sing along. 

also. i bought this dress from american apparel and i love love loveeee it.

i knowwww... you're not supposed to love american apparel because like every boy and girl and dad and hipster on the street has the same thing but i don't care i LOVE. it's comfortable and convertible and just kind of great. i plan on wearing it every day this summer. its the perfect little dress to accessorize. stacy doesn't like it. she says it's "boring" but she also told me that when painting my frame neon green, the paint DEFINITELY wouldn't get on the floor if i layed it on fabric and guess what. it DID get on the floor. (shhhh don't tell lea) so i have decided to dis-credit everything stacy says from now on.  anyways, my new dress. so far, i just did the socks and creepers look which i know is a little bit boring but don't worry.. i have plans for minnie ears and bling and a marching band hat and sequins and shoulder-padded blazers and stuff. (rip michael) so anyways. that is my summer wardrobe schedule. i feel that it is very creative and economical.

lately, all i want to do is dress like minnie mouse but my outfits keep channeling a.c. slater. i reallllly need to sort myself out. 

OH!! jen and i are starting a band. we are going to play the tambourines and they are going to be bedazzled. if you would like us to play at any of your functions, please let me know. we don't have the tambourines or any sort of songs worked out yet but i'm 96% sure we are going to be amazing so feel free to book in advance.

happy slurpee day.
